Well it's kind of too small to hold any significant detail at his skill level.

So 2 alternatives: make it bigger or get better...

i consider these things as a final touch, so yeah there will be cracks and non-perfect lines

Some progress (?)

Nice additions

tomb-raider strikes again

suggestions?

Looks nice but maybe a bit too small. I don't know how large you picture the gravestone but this one would reach about to the knee of the player character.

maybe they are a bit small, but i think we can go with it. imho
(next time I'll try something bigger )

Now where I see the two stones next to each other I see that they seem to use a slightly different color palette (or maybe the same color palette but the colors are used for different purposes). You should fix that so that the stones work better with each other.

Also don't be afraid to give the ground line of your objects a slight angle. It makes the objects look more three-dimensional and dynamic.

as i promised here comes the bigger tombstone...


just random doodling, maybe i'll work more on that fallen tombstone


here are some new items for woodland village houses interior+ reworked pot


and another doodles, first is an obelisk or pillar, with crystal or crystal orb placed on the top, i just want to know if I should continue or abandon the whole concept... second is meant to be a monster, it's some sort of floating fleshy ball, i was thinking it could have few tentacles or arms and performs some sort of electrocuting attacks with them...



now, what do you think?

I really like the mossy tombstone in the first picture, also it's going to be interesting to see what the fleshy ball becomes..

I finished tombstones at last... at least i think
(i hope they can be used for upcoming Halloween event)


another skull for desert..(half done ?)

welcome back to work Yosuhara

the tombstones, they look good, but I think they need more ligth effect
and the skull is really nice, early, but nice

The skull looks really nice. It shows that you finally developed a feeling for perspective. Did you pixel it from memory, freehand from a reference or did you trace it from a reference?

But its hue shading looks odd. As if it would be illuminated by a very faint light source in an otherwise dark room and not by the burning midday sun of the tonnori desert. You should use the color palette of the other skull in the desert tileset.

I like the newest tombstone. Arcane enough in design.

My eye just cannot decide whether the stones are standing up or laying down.

Shadows are one visual cue that tends to help with that, as well as selectively overlapping things (such as strands of grass growing up around the base) in the z-axis.
