Close@2nd animation: When the sword swings to the left I think there could be still be a "slash trail" so the helicopter swinging overall doesn't look like it's losing momentum.

Black outlines are very good for making charset sprites stand out, many 2D games do this.

@ Ketsumio: I can see em. Hm...don't use black outlines is the first thing I'll say. Black detracts from your colours and makes the piece look unprofessional. Shade with an outline darker than your darkest shade of the object.

true. i never use #000000 because ~SNES aesthetic~ but there are plenty of examples of games that use blacklines. it really depends on the style. i'm surprised a big fan of final fantasy like yourself doesn't use blackline, kyrsty
I don't like black lines much at all on pixel art, especially when it's only the sprites. Disconnects them from the rest of the game too much, to me.
But that's just a preference thing.

To put it quite simply I was taught never to use full black. Dark colours, yes, but never full black. I tend to do this a lot with my artwork now too because I find that black lines just take up too much of the attention. This can be good for making sprites stand out, I guess. I guess it's just personal opinion.

I always thought sprites are supposed to stand out from the background not only that but anything thats considered a moving character should stand out from the background or it looks like the map has living bits until you look close enough...
In coloring I guess it makes sense since nothing really has a solid black outline thats only in cartoons so you might have a point color wise still you need something to make it noticeable from the background.

Anyone need a ww2 plane?
Man, I really really like that one.
Reminds me of this game: (skip to 3:00-ish to see spriaaytes)

Haha, if you are serious then it could be arranged.
Oh I didn't have anything planned for it (I couldn't make a shooter, put it that way).. I just really liked it/it reminded me of that gam :D

good question!
(i don't know)
I just threw roguelike out there because I had just played one...I'll have to think of a new angle...it can't be like the 23,021 other ww2 scrolling shooters out there.
just no rpg stuff... if i really go through with it, i want this project to be a reprieve from rpg development :S
I didn't know there were an abundance of WW2 scrolling shooters to be honest.
I feel like I've missed out on something :(

Saya wants to do 100% custom graphics for her game. Clearly, this will take a while.
This is what I have so far. I'm practicing by resizing XP and VX graphics and recoloring them too. How does it look so far? Erin is just there was a height reference.

My pixels are quite interactive.
Also pretty much the only pixel "artwork" I have ever done is where the pixels form "art" based on my coding and how the game is played.
Edit: Oh and
the first one was form a awesome game! link: http://dan-ball.jp/en/javagame/dust/
