20 something or other colors, Sagittarius. I've never liked centaurs so I just did an Archer girl instead. Plus, ran out of time.
This is all 12 of the zodiac now.
these are great. however there is something wrong with the boobs i dont know what though.
Wow nice work, but im confused on what the numbers mean? if any thing lol
How many colors there are in the image, I bet
These are all pretty amazing =o nice work
Wow, sweet. I like Capricorn and Cancer the best.
Thank you!
The numbers are the color count of the image. I include that in most of my pixel art just for the curious.
Also, yes, I do have a problem with drawing boobs, my grasp of anatomy still isn't the best. I've been trying to fix that though. Is there any one in particular you think is off, or is that a problem for all 3?
Aries, Aquarius, and Scropio looks brilliant. ;8
Great job, Ocean.
Thank you!
I have added a new one that I finished just now. I was working on it from before I posted the topic, I just didn't feel like posting the WIP of it. It's added on the first post.

Working on a book to use as a pixel art portfolio of sorts. Here's the cover page of it.
Thats neat.
and the cancer rocks.
i mean the picture not cancer cancer :D
I love how you use swirls in your art, I love swirls :3
also, not to nitpick but there should be a second fish in pisces as well, I think it's twin fish if I'm not mistaken
I think if you gave taurus a shadow like you did for Scorpio it'd look alot better =o
But these are excellent O_O I like Aries and Capricorn the best =)

Yes, it is twin fish, you're correct :). I actually got made fun of for this, but I figured people would get the point anyway (that and I forgot about that when I first made it). I don't really want to copy/paste/recolor/flip the fish though, so I'll see what I can do once I have some more free time. And yes, swirls are awesome.

Taurus has a shadow. I guess it blends in a bit much with the regular grass and doesn't look like a true shadow. I'll try making it purple or blue and see if that helps!
OK, updated first post with Sagittarius.

New thing. Not a pixel art, just playing around with photoshop. I wanted to do a Secret of Mana style Tree scene.

I'm sorry i'm not breaking your heart or am i i can't remember sorry ;9

Those are reallly sweet. I think Capricorn is my favorite, but overall, they're great.
:)
I may be lazy sometimes, but I'm not lazy enough to not have anything done in a month.

Both 10 colors.
These all look great, but if I had to choose Cancer my favourite, and that SoM style tree looks great.
I loved the detail and excellence of both Cancer and Gemini (The Twins are _VERY_ well done) thou I found the Bull's legs in Taurus a bit... strange, I'll give you an advice on terms of animal anatomy, check renacentist or classical sculptures of the intented animal (if you can find) they can always give a general view and help produce the animal.
Woah, I didn't know that Renacentist was an actual word, I've never heard of it before.
Actually, that would be a very good idea, there's also oversized books in the library with a lot of statues that could have been useful for that. I didn't think to do that though. I probably won't have another project like that, so any future bgs that aren't part of a job or commission and I should have time to perfect it more.
Thanks for the comments!

I am assuming it is, I made a direct translation of my spanish toughts in which it really is a word 'Renacentista' ;8
My recommendations on statues? Any of the Tuscan Marbles (Firenze is filled with win in that sense) or greek statues from sculptors such as Praxilites, Milon or Fidias, also the 'Agonizing Galat' is a nice statue for one to see the correct anatomy for an dying warrior, and since greeks were so helpful all of their statues are naked.

A Super Robot War style thing I decided to try out. The lolship sprites aren't made by me, but everything else is. I'd have made it animate, but eh, lazy.

A Summon Night style sprite. Looks like Terra on a Magitek, but it's Amelia on an Ancanger from my game Paradise Blue. Very inspired by Terra/Magitek though.

A DS mockup. The DS in the linked image above the 2 wasn't made by me, this was just for a pixel event. The stuff in the 2 screens are made by me though, and I think this is how I want Azure Ocean to look like when I start working on it.

Llorcan, a boss character in my game.

I'm loving the sprites look itself, looks both simple yet smoothly beautiful @__@
Excellent artwork, and spriting. ^^
Thanks! I don't do character sprites often so I'm glad that people like them! I need to work on animation more once I get some free time... although that's the thing of pixel art I like least :<
I like, I like. I would probably cut out the DS graphic and just hav the two screens, separated @_@ It's very good though. The sprites are great too.
Yeah, sounds like a good idea. I left the DS image one as a link above if anyone wants to see how that ended up.
