music + export:

the last step (although often the first, i'll start with a tune and model afterwards) is to pair the model w/ music. i add a bit of distortion (bulge, glow, vignette, etc) for fun.

texture:

picocad has the same palette restrictions as pico-8, but you can use the webviewer to sidestep this constraint.

i plan on making a general guide for my process (mostly for the #picocad discord) but i'll also document it here.

in the meantime, here are the parts that make up my previous model/scene.

all models are <16kb (picocad file size limit), and captured via lucatronica.github.io/picocad-web-...

a little peek behind the curtain.

even though i'm working across multiple picocad files, i can only use one texture file (due to picocad toolkit limitations). i try to be as judicious as i can be when texturing more complex models, so i don't run out of space.
