forever (well since playing MI2 around the age of 5 and 6) I've wanted to make a piratish game. Now i think my background art is of satisfactory level to bring the atmosphere to the game i want. This is a quick bit of concept art. It's meant to be a bar on some docks, very empty at the moment, in the final version, it would be full with tables, drunk pirates and a musician.
Thanks for any comments
Looks good! Can't wait to see it with animations and pirates :)
nice pic, but i think these shadows have more of a sunset-sun form? Otherwise the sun would be visible..?
Love it :) Except for that the doorway looks terribly square but it IS concept art. I like the general mood :) Tres Piratey.
ty for the crits all, i spent some time trying to do some sea/sky (so ignore the land for now)

great sky... :) i really cant complain much...
it looks great.. but i think it would look better if the shadows didnt go straight down.. more perspective...
There's a shadow missing of the balcony railing (outside the door). It looks like that door leads out to a deck or something. Plus there's no light coming through the open door.
The circle window lighting the floor should be oblong (stretched) out, like you have the shadow of the leg of the table stretched out.
Great start though ... has a nice feel too it. I like the sky you've started too.

I've already shown you these on IRC, but wth. Here's my shot at it.
