You want constructive criticism? OK, here we goes.
Long story short: IMO your helm sucks. Why?
1. It doesn't look very evil/scary/dark/whatever
2. Shape isn't quite right - there is something wrong with that, maybe it's too big
3. Gray colour palette doesn't look good for that kind of helm
4. Surface fracture makes it look funny instead of respectful
5. They are many mistakes on opacity channel

6. You used 138 unique colours, when in fact you can achieve better effect with 4 to 10 colours

You have still much to learn, and sometimes I don't see that you understand our hints.
If you still need a proof that this helm can be made with ONLY 4 colours, I can make something like that.

here are some of my comments about what you said didnt like that last thing you said because well lets be honest thats wasnt the most mature response to me asking for you to delete a message because even though it wasnt the best way to respond but im still 12 so most people would let that pass by

now that the comment was done heres another 1 i use airbrush alot its how i shade because i was told by my idol that its what he uses and ive come a long way with that tool so as it comes out i have a bunch of colors in it when you ask for 4-10 colors i was suprised and it took an hour for me to process just that because well i use airbrush so this will be very hard for me but thats the way it is ill continue to fight for this to get ingame

another thing is i mold this to how i feel at the time sometimes i feel like it should be a rough texture sometimes i feel it should be smooth sometimes light other times dark sometimes pointed other times smooth its just how i work on it im sorry it turns out funny instead of respectful which i dont get but like i said thats life

gray isnt a good color you say hmmmm well what should it be? i have noticed it looks pretty good with red thats why i posted the crimson knights helm which btw since i thought i finished this 1 i started making that look more evil

this comment you made was put in a mean way towards me and i believe it was uncalled for
btw here was my edited crimson knights helm now known as the devils helm which when this helm is done i will make a new thread trying to push this into game

Your idol doesn't seem to make any game graphics. There are areas of CG art where the airbrush tool is the perfect tool for shading but pixel art for games is none of them.

Iukards style of commenting might have been a bit harsh but the content is correct. I agree with him in every point, although he could have said it nicer.
  • former Manasource Programmer
  • former TMW Pixel artist
  • NOT a game master

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.


You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

Image is better than hundreds words.
It looks similar to Gaff Gafgarion's helmet from Final Fantasy Tactics. He was Dark Knight. It it looked hell good ;) And as you see only 4 colours were used. No airbrushes, no brushes, no textures, only pencil - pure pixelart.

well crush i guess i took his works wrong because my idol has made things for this game maybe he took airbrush to edt the shading of the color thats probably it
