Yeah, I understand why. It doesn't really look... "slimy". I have to find out how to make textures look more translucent and gelatinous.

Can you elaborate on what makes it look like that though?

Rexx · 07-23-2012

more shine and a brighter green would make it look more gelatinous, its good as is though.
MattGraal is talking out his ass btw.

I don't really know what to say about this one. It generally looks messy and I dont see a mayan pilliar in it anywhere. There also seems to be alot of random lines on it that dont really reflect any light whatsoever but are just there for no reason. The base of the pilliar also looks rather strange. Is that supposed to be dirt clinging to it? because the general shape of it looks like its just scribbled on, just like almost everything in the sprite. (Also, thats definitely not 8 bit.)

I see it as an art syle. Not everything here has to be pixel art.

Healy do not worry ... Everyone in this forum is either a jerk or Higbey.

It was 8 bit, I re-sampled it to 16 or 32. I don't know if you've ever seen graphics like that, but that is a common style used in older GBA games. I don't know the name of it but it generally uses rougher messier texturing and low color counts with contrasting sharp pixel placement. I never said lighter spot were LIGHT sources but the could be deterioration of the column, and accents. The bottom is dirt/foliage.

You're calling me a jerk for offering a critique? Yeah, that makes sense.

I never said that. If it is its own unique art style like he says, at least in my opinion, he either did it wrong or its not my type is all.
