Title: Drawing a Grand Piano
Post by: Totoro on Sat 21/08/2004 18:34:56
Hello folksÃ,  :-\

Being really not very talented with graphics I am still drawing the graphics for the next game myself, but now I am at a point where I really would appreciate some help. My little cafe needs a grand piano for the corner.

It should be in the left corner. It should not stop people from using the door so I think some part of it will stick out to the left, maybe even the feet can stick out downwards. Of course the keyboard should be inside the graphic because the pianoman will be part of the puzzle.
I tried to draw it myself, try to copy the outline from photos, tried to use the Maniac-Mansion-Piano as a model... but whatever I do it just does not look like a piano at all. I dont mind my graphics not looking good but... at least everyone should be able to see that it is a piano. Can someone maybe push me in the right directions, with some outlines maybe?

It looks like if the character walked through the door he could walk straight onto the top of the piano. Add a shadow beneath or something. And a stool.

Wouldn't it look better in the corner?
