tips for working with rocks?
Wednesday, June 20, 2018 - 22:09
i'm working on these elements for a game i'm working on (because i couldnt find others that worked in the UI! maybe i can submit as missing link...) and i can't draw the dang rocks. i think the other elements look good enough, but the rocks look like crap. ;p
could one of you pixel wizards offer some tips on pixel rocks?
i can, like, paint rocks, but i'm having a hard time making an exciting rock scene and also picking the right colors for it.

I think all of these look good, including the rocks ^^ they would definitely have sufficed for me.
encouragement appreciated, spring, but dangit! i need better rocks! can you rocks? i need advicccee
I can't better than yours :P
Those are pretty good symbolic rocks IMO. Even without context my impression of the symbols are:
The earth logo hints at rocks and dirt as well as being mountain-shaped. I can't imagine a better symbol for an Earth element.
--Medicine Stormpretty spot on, medicinestorm.
shadow
thunder
ice
game logo can't post
fire
rock
life
maybe the dust in the bg makes the thing pop a little more, idk. still not happy with it personally but i've run out of time and am not being paid enough to keep caring!
thanks for the feedback, though, mosdef, you two.
EDIT: working with like 12 pixels is pretty frustrating. i got some respect for the pixelers here
