[Official Thread] Pixel Art "Comp 1" Voting...

[pointguard]

Myself, I like both ideas...

But, what if we keep the simple basic shape...But, allow people to modify slightly, (say we have the basic shape(s) of a body, but if someone were creating for example a superhero character, they could add a cape outline, funky boots, etc, etc...).

However, I do like the option of just a normal comp, and sticking to the theme of "zelda" style characters. Thinking about the possibilities people could create...
We've still got the option of restricting the size of the characters created. We could also say people have to create a series of views, (face forward, face right, face left, jumping...etc)...Option of animated sprites as well...

Actually, from a personal point of view, I like this one better...

I remember someone STOPPED me from making more ships and i started than to design pixel by pixel

After this a lot of subsribed NONpixels were accepted and a NONpixels ship is winning (a good one in fact but still nonpixel art)

This time we should decide more clear the conditions

(Forgive english)

Agreed, and rules that are followed.

I think part of the problem was a definition of what pixel art is.

I suppose for the next competition maybe we should use the wikipedia definition of pixel art as a guide?

As to what is for the next comp, personally I'm up for anything. Something really imaginative would be nice, as I'm always up for a challange.

PS Thanks WilloughbyJackson for voting for me! I think my ship was so small no one saw it .
