Random test of a turnaround animation of my lovely character ;D

(it was created on Nintendo DSi's Flipnotes while I was testing that thing)

Thanks for the Feedback back then Sentura, i didnt wanted to revise it too drastic but i´ll try to avoid those problems for future work.

I started this one on a long night drive in sweden,

closest thing to a live painting i ever did.

This came out of some damage control for a different concept. ~1 hour

I guess I should have said CRITS WELCOME LOL

Well this is very.. VAGINAL .. I LIKE IT

Seriously it looks good mate , the bottom is great because you feel the depth very nicely, but you don't have the same effect with the upper part of the image, maybe that could be a path of improvement

Good point. I think I'm kind of missing some way of doing it since it's "opening up". I think maybe adding some gradient between the foreground and background would help, but then it might also destroy the image by forcing too much of the foreground into the background. Maybe I just need to accentuate the foreground more as foreground and the background more as background.

I think I generally botched the shading - so that's definitely where I want to improve.

this game just doesnt leave me alone

Like it. To give more depth i'd try to add something in the very foreground; and expanding on what KoKo wrote, you probably can darken a bit the top part and that should maybe add that depth.And the shadow of the character looks a little bit washed out for how dark is the character's back.

Practicing pixel art and programming in Haxe/OpenFL/HaxeFlixel (special programming language that translates to other languages, really good for multiplatform stuff).

You can also see the clouds in motion (their brightness changes relative to how close they are to the sun.

EDIT: CRAP! those clouds should not be moving that fast, I was just doing that to debug the lighting thing.
