Pixel Joint Forum: Bunch of guys runnin right

Message

I'm makin this for fun, was wondering if anyone had any C&C. I'll have to make a couple more passes on things like hair and then I'm gonna try getting to work on a BG. I think the guy in the blue shirt looks like he's a bit off from the way the rest look so I'll prob have to fix him up a bit as well.

	Those look alright. I hope you're going to animate them, or have them all in a scene. I Think they'll look pretty good in a game.

	I think you have a few of very similar shades. If you remove them it will likely be better.

	I don't think I could animate them because it'd be too much work -_-;; They're based off real people so I sorta need the variety of shades to try to depict them in this small space. Which shades are you talking about? In the faces or clothing?

	To make them more readable, consider increasing contrast and reducing single-pixel detail (i.e. clusters instead) outside of things like eyes.

	I understand you're working on a background, but while you work on the characters it might be a good idea to work on a more neutral coloured canvas, as you have some whites and greys that get lost. ;) Edited by DoctorDRG - 30 June 2012 at 10:47am

	I tried to reduce some of the really similar colors a bit. I flip on and off a solid color bg layer while I work. I'm still not positive on what I want to use for a BG but I'm worried that whatever I do, it'll clutter up the characters.

	This looks like great fun. Too bad you are not interested to make it into a game, but I understand it would be a lot of work. I just think you show much talent here, both in concept/design and execution. Edited by LachieD - 02 July 2012 at 12:54pm
