Leon Pixel

Jaws Pixel

Luchadore

This piece was another black and white experimentation that turned into a colour experimentation. I think this piece was successful as the contrast of deep black and geometric shapes against the loose and random colour is very effective.

 

 

 



Grim Reaper

This piece was an experimentation of black and white pixel art, I also tried to not think so much about keeping it perfect and do a more free piece. I think what is successful about this piece is the interesting use of lighting, only showing various parts of the character.

 

Pixel Demon

This piece was inspired by the sprite style, I already tried this style before on the mermaid piece, however I wanted to try and fit a character into an even smaller space of pixels. I think this piece was successful as it is clear what the character is and it has an element of character. I hope to animate this into a simple yet effective gif that reflects on old video games that use the same style.

Pixel Mermaids

A popular form of pixel art is to make characters into things called Sprites, these are smaller simplified versions of characters that are usually created in 50 x 50 pixel grids. I wanted to explore this style and the biggest difficulty I found was being able to make it look like something in such a small amount of space. However I feel that this piece was very successful as it looks like a mermaid and has achieved to style of the pixel sprites.

Ancient China

As an experiment with colour I tried a technique using only 3 tones of one colour and attempt to convey tone, colour and texture though a simplistic medium. I think this piece was very successful as it looks like a finished product.
