fixed it ;)
They look good. What prog did you uses?
The perspective seems a bit off on the bed.
Would add some shading as well as just light and shadow...
But it looks really good.. loving those characters..
There are a few tutorials about turning characters and drawing side views. I think ILB Has one.
thanks, i used paint shop pro 8 and ur right the perspective is off on the bed im not to worried about that tho i just need some tips on shading and texture ill check out that tutorial ur talkin about . thanks ;D oh and i was just wondering if the post i made in the game production forum worked cuz i got replys really fast on this one but havnt gotten any for my other post thanks guys :)
For a person who said they can't draw very well that's pretty good...I never played DOTT so I wouldn't know...But the characters do look a little big for the background...The lighting is definately off though....
why is it so fuzzy-looking? :P I hope thats just how it appears and not how it will look in your game. Anywho....is that pillow on the bed an object or part of the backround. The reason I am asking, is that it doesn't really go well with the rest of the room. Its too intense, and the outline should be a softer grey, not black.
