Been a while since I posted anything. Been studying and working. Anyways, felt like drawing some Freedom Planet fan art to end the day. Lilac, age 21. #FreedomPlanet #GalaxyTrailFanArt

So uh... People asked for Lilac to do an outfit swap with Carol and Milla. Here's the result! #galaxytrailfanart #freedomplanet

You know what... sure... why not! 40 minute color sketch. I loved the low angle perspective that @catcitrus.bsky.social drew and thought it would be cute to make something on par, even if the outfit is obscured as a result.

What's this... Jasmine's idle animation.. but in HD?
Yes. I wanted to share a bit more info about how this was made. It's not traditional pixel art! It's actually a rig made with vector images, bones, all that good stuff... that was later downscaled to 10% and exported.

Every fighter should have a good idle animation! Again I wanna say that mine is technically NOT a DTIYS since this is very much a trace of @awd.bsky.social 's sketch, but hey... it's animated tho.
This was a lot of fun.

Technically what I'm doing isn't a DTIYS since all I did was clean up @awd.bsky.social's sketch of Jasmine's fighting stance so far, but that's only half of I what I got planned.

I was given some great advice on things to be mindful of when making pixel art. Specifically on the perspective and 3/4 tilting issues (in fact, Tyson wrote about it on his site tysontan.com/gallery/gall... )
I put it to practice and I must say that I can see how much of a difference it makes!

I want to get more practice making pixel art. I'll be using Libbie again as the model for my study. My goal is to redraw her FP2 idle sprite, but at double the original size and with some different proportions. #GalaxyTrailFanArt

Adding Sash and Tea for good measure.

I just now realized that I never posted these old Sash sketches here. Time to fix that.
ALSO... I never did finish sketching those "Ask Sash" questions either... hmmm...

Here's an example of my logic behind the character height based on FP2 sprites.

UPDATE! I got some feedback on a few things to be mindful of like color groups and saturation. With that in mind, I touched up the areas that were bothering me. I think it looks WAY better now. #FreedomPlanet #GalaxyTrailFanArt

I decided to practice making pixel art. While this is FAN ART, this is ALSO A TRACE of @tysontan.bsky.social's artwork of Libbie and Tyson. I'm testing out my pipeline for pixelating high res art into portrait and sprite sizes for games. Credit to Tyson for his art. #FreedomPlanet #GalaxyTrailFanArt

Another little update on the 8-bit sprites of Sash and Tea. I gotten some feedback on ways to improve the coloring and shapes for better readability. Pixel art is still a bit tricky for me, but I'm learning. #FreedomPlanet #GalaxyTrailFanArt

Making 8-bit sprites was so fun that I had to make one for Tea as well. I also gave Sash's sprite a bit of an update too. #FreedomPlanet #GalaxyTrailFanArt
