Eeps... I can't see the picture.

Perhaps you should upload it here:

Just throw in a good grey-type-fill for the wall, trying to avoid standard or monotonous colors if possible (Trying for a low-saturation blue or brick-red might lend it a little personality.. low-sat or it'll be garish).

Then, you might try with some generic shading.. just splashes of a slightly darker shade thrown in keeping with perspective could sketch this out a bit. In my opinion, a picture's gotta have line detail or color variety out of the proverbial wazoo.

use [ img ] url for pic [ /img ] (without the spaces) to display images, like this:

is that any better? im still not happy with it, i want it to look more scummy, and im saving t as a jpeg at the mo cos i here that this forum doesn't like bmp. can i upload it to that adventure 2 site as a bmp and display on forum or is that frowned upon in this neck of the woods,

what ya think?

If you want it to look more scummy, you should probably add a little more scum.

Details like chewing gum on the road, scratches or grafitti on the wall or anything else you can think of can make all the difference.

I think a lot of the lines need to be sharper as well, i think that would pick the image up a bit.

Also, you can upload bmps to 2dadventure, but they won't display here. Add a link to it, however, & I'm sure some people will click to look at it

Bad, bad example: Very bad:

Sorry for not putting in more effort, sorry for the whole pic actually.

I just wanted to show that I always though of Scumm style more bent and twisted...
