"Art"

I've wanted to be good at art for a very long time. I spent countless hours trying to teach myself 3D modeling back in highschool, and I originally wanted to make art posts a regular event on this blog when I first started it. Obviously that never happened, but I haven't quite given up on art yet.

During my break in August, I decided to finally try to get good pixel art. Following through on that, I've been practicing almost every day. So far, I've made somewhere in the ballpark of 60 images. I wouldn't call myself competent yet, but I think I've improved enough to make a little "progress showcase".

Enough talking, let's get to the art

I went through my art folder and tried to find similar pieces that
  1. I had considered 'done' at the time (no WIP/unfinished pieces)
  2. Had a reasonable time difference between them
Then, I put them into groups and made some nice little comparison images:

Trees

 Rocky Walls


Sand


Foliage


Stone Bricks



So yeah, that's what I've been up to for the past 3-4 months. I'm going to keep practicing pixel art, and maybe do little gallery posts like this on once in a while. I'll also try to take my time making art for any future game projects, so hopefully my practice will start paying off once I'm back to game stuff.
