You mean the enemy destroyed your titan? Cuz if so: the mammoth REGAINS his 1 atk that the v. titan intimidates off of him.

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Bug Reports

I just get this message the game (the page, are the actual words) isn’t available at the moment. Why and is it really temporary?

Well yeah, man, you did a great job here. Kept me going, although I’ve stopped making pixel art, or any kind of art really.
It’s been a good year and a half (?) for me pixelling on this forum. xD Thanks.

Topic: The Arts / Hey ya'll it has been awhile just checking back.

That’s a great bit of image editing. I like how it all looks like it is just one part, drawn/painted like you see it there.

Looking good so far, a bit more polish on main character maybe, and if you want it PERFECT make a paralax background

Do you mean like a background with depth? That would be awesome, really. If you’d put darker and darker bits of blocks going into the background.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

Pretty cool, that. I guess, the only thing that bothers me is that the black is dithered and nothing else is.

Topic: The Arts / New pixel art

Thanks.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

I’d love to beta test. xD

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

Awesome, Ramos!
And @kilozombie, I understand that. You can fix it in the future, though.

Topic: The Arts / how do u make good art

I still think a question like that is kind of stupid…
But sure, draw. A lot.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

I’d increase framelength in a LOT of those frames cuz it just goes too fast and I have to look at everything individually everytime to see what’s going on.

Topic: The Arts / New pixel art

Yeah, I didn’t think get that first bit, probably. But I knew I should shade the ridges, I didn’t need to get criticism for it, actually, to figure that out… xD
And yeah, I suppose that spike, I dunno, just passing it off as a mystery would just be lazy. But I don’t have the motivation to work on this piece again.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

Goddamn, Ramos, that looks awesome.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

Yeah, that’s sommin a lot of beginning pixel artists do, they make the mistake of zooming and drawing their pixel art keeping only that zoom in mind.
What you have to do, is zoom in and keep thinking if it looks good zoomed out. For example, the eye of the parrot or whatever it’s called looks really strange this way, but zoomed in it looks better. Now, if you just zoom in and edit it and then zoom out again to see if it looks good, that’d be better.

Topic: The Arts / Opinon on Experimental Bands

I was also going to add the following…
My band consists of 4 musicians, each with their own history.
I got most of my influences from heavy metal, funk rock and electronic genres (Infected Mushroom, KOAN sound, stuff like that)
Our lead guitarist got all his influences from blues and bluesrock.
Our rhythm guitarist and singer listens to anything and everything, and plays mostly poprock and whatever singersongwriters like Jack Johnson(?) play.
And our bassist plays mostly reggae, ska and funk.

There you have a good recipe for an experimental band.
But we play a lot of generic music with, as SupHomies said, verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus.
Therefor, I only have to say to you, be creative with what you have and make it good music.

Topic: The Arts / Opinon on Experimental Bands

I don’t really care what genres you use, be creative with them and I’ll like it.
“Genres” and “100% original sound” are very outdated ideas, btw.

Topic: The Arts / Pete's art dump

Last few things are looking good.
I still wonder how you got the motivation to get so versatile. xD
I get seriously bored trying to craft anything or drawing very simple digital things like that portfolio sketch thing.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

But it kinda looks good like this. Detailed and still shaded well.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

It looks way too small. xD

Topic: The Arts / New pixel art

Well, it’s easy to do.
Use dithering.
And put random pixels of near-black and near-white and a dark sand tone everywhere.

Topic: The Arts / New pixel art

Thanks, but nah, it isn’t great.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

Looking altright, but I would add dropshadows to everything, not just the character and the trees. The mouse and… Snake? Look flat this way.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

Oh alright. xD Sounds good.

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

Nice man. I always love your armors, they look really cool.
And I also like the specific crosshairs for the guns. The Pistols and Lazers really get a sense of accuracy, while the shotguns and SMG’s feel a lot less accurate. Not sure about the rifles, though. Could be either.
Could you tell me, btw, what those robotic arms are?

Topic: The Arts / [Group] Prophets of Pixels TWO

Yo, awesome art Ramos. As usual.
I think it’s easier like this yes, using scanning. I got a better idea of how to begin with the outlines this way.
And Mopp, welcome back. xD
