Nova has a full walking sprite now! Look at her go! And, yes, her jacket's collar fluff bounces as she walks. :]c

Next up: Tex or Peaches? Nerd-cowboy bot or lesbian farmer bot?

Top: large walking sprite (500px).

Left: full sprite sheet at 100% (50px for a 48x48 sprite).

Middle: walking sprite at 100%.

Right: embiggened sprite sheet. Ignore the couple artifacts that Photoshop added even with nearest neighbor enabled

It took me a long time to nail down what kind of design I wanted for the back of her helmet, but once I got it, it was easier to keep rolling through. I might change her leather jacket to black to keep with the black/white + blue + yellow theme that I'm gunning for with her in Overclocked!, but the brown was how I originally envisioned her casual wear in Destiny, so. We'll see!

I'm having a LOT of fun with pixel art though. It's slow-going because I'm still learning, but since it requires a meticulous and detail-oriented hand to make sure everything lines up and flows correctly, well... "meticulous and detailed-oriented" are the only kind of hands that I posses, lol.

Teaching myself pixel art for my game idea, so here's part of Nova's walking sprite! Her design might change a lot as I mess around - especially her helmet as I take her further and further from being my Destiny OC - but so far I'm having a lot of fun just messing around with the pixels. Finding hue-shifting to be especially fun!

Black & yellow backgrounds just to show contrast.
