And I agree I like the looks of that lil guy.</p> <p>The thing about being a master craftsperson, is that it doesn't happen all at once. Go with the hand drawn, keep working/practicing in other areas. I like hand drawn. Good stuff. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8562#post-44257 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 15:44:48 +0000 manamana 44257@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>double post goddam captcha sh*t! </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8562#post-44256 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 15:43:44 +0000 manamana 44256@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>What's great about Vectors - you can scale them at any time for all your likings. And the file size is low. Scaling shouldn't be a problem with the hand drawn sprites either, as long you keep the resolution high. Looks good btw. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8562#post-44255 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 15:20:20 +0000 silkvg247 44255@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>When I do vector art it looks shit and I really struggle with how to do shading.</p> <p>Hand drawn art I've always been quite good at. It was always my understanding that vector art is for people who can't draw..</p> <p>Here's an example of one of the main sprites in my current game..</p> <p><a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/116137178/GamesDev/Spidey/images/player-sheet0.png" rel="nofollow">http://dl.dropbox.com/u/116137178/GamesDev/Spidey/images/player-sheet0.png</a></p> <p>I tried to do him as vector instead and he instantly lost his personality. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8562#post-44253 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 15:02:49 +0000 OlderGamer 44253@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>I say Vector Art.</p> <p>While hand drawn graphics is a near lost art form to most of us dedicated gamer types, if you are making a game for the masses, hand drawn can sometimes come across as amatuerish, imo. In todays world computer art is thing all and of itself.</p> <p>If you were making me a game, personaly...I would want hand drawn and bright colors.</p> <p>Also depends on the game type and other things. Not to mention, what you like best, it is your game. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8562#post-44249 Tue, 26 Feb 2013 13:28:14 +0000 silkvg247 44249@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Do you know, I never played Tapper..! I know the gameplay mechanics though.</p> <p>I'm making a cool game right now, it's top secret at the mo though. I'm torn between home made hand drawn slightly rough graphics or slightly shinier but falser looking vector art. </p> http://www.vg247.com/forum/topic.php?id=8562#post-43919 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 20:28:47 +0000 OlderGamer 43919@http://www.vg247.com/forum/ <p>Indie crowd funding game, Beer Tapper gameplay.</p> <p>Top down, cam behind the player.
