If you count the base of the trees as a color of green, I believe that's what he's considering black, since there's no actual black to be found.

Big King's Quest vibes. I love it.
highspeedninja97 t1_izxiype wrote
If thats the case, what about the 3rd gray? Or is it black? My head!
Krikke93 t1_izxjf60 wrote
It's the same color used for the trees, you can see it flowing into the rocks on the right side :D and some parts use a checker pattern with two similar colors to make it appear as one darker color. Used in the rocks and the far background trees.

This was my exact thought.

It reminded me of Lower Lewis River Falls in WA, but it certainly resembles Bassi Falls to a T!

That damn desert in KQ 5.
After 2 days messing with it, rode my bike up to B Dalton's and looked up the sequence in the Strategy Guide. I was too poor as a kid to buy the book so I just wrote it down and rode home as fast as I could.

thewolfpack23x t1_izzwaqe wrote
Old consoles could only display a limited number of colors, so limited color palettes has become a characteristics part of the pixel art look.
AgentLead_TTV t1_izzwgdw wrote
I understand that but is it like a badge of honor to have a lower number?
habu-sr71 t1_izzy57j wrote
I have spent much time there. Yes, it does remind of C falls.
Whenever I think of those falls, I always wanna ask someone where the Nualna store is, and do they keep the laid back version in stock.

I keep seeing these pixel art posts. I love this type of art. How would one learn more about the basics? Just curious if it is something that I could fable in for like a healthy hobby. Great work and thanks for posting btw!
spidermanicmonday t1_j001yi8 wrote
It is impressive to get this amount of detail with only 9 different colors total for shading and highlights and everything. Any other medium it is impossible to strictly limit yourself to a specific set number of distinct shades, since for instance even using the exact same paint if you used slightly different pressure and strokes it would result in slightly different shades.

I was fooled too. I double counted the black from the rocks and the trees like a dummy. Lmao

Oh man, good memories. My parents and I used to sit and play the Sierra games together. All the King’s Quest, Space Quest, Police Quest. They never let me watch while they played Leisure Suit Larry though. I was wild to play it though.

Heavyarms83 t1_j00vcj7 wrote
People pay others to take their clothes off, I guess there’s a little more work and effort in these pixel art pictures, so I guess the artist deserves it.
Dis_Joint t1_j00x27m wrote
I noticed a couple of the splash pixels change colour, really gives the "caught the sunlight" effect!
Your attention to detail has not gone unnoticed :)
Dis_Joint t1_j00x6qj wrote
Something tells me that the ability to create art like this may be more sought-after long-term than say, someone skilled at flipping burgers. But people often get paid for that "basic" ability. Are you literally an alien? And don't understand how commerce works?
Mike2220 t1_j0148j6 wrote
There's a few "shades" of gray made by checkerboarding colors.
They do the darker gray with the black, as well as the darker gray and lighter gray

Okay sure, you pay for something you want. But what are the people doing with the product? Is there a product? If you pay for his patreon, you just get a link to a gif? Im srsly uneducated in this space

Hi all! This pixel art animation is 320x200px using 9 colors and 10 hand drawn frames. I doubled the resolution for viewing purposes. These little splashing pixels are hand drawn one by one 😓 I wish you all a pleasant day <3
