Children are a health and nutrient snack for trees every where around the world. If you aren't feed your trees children then your not feeding them at all

I knew a boy who was eating wood sticks in the elementary school. Now I realize that maybe he wanted to eat all the trees so they couldn't eat him...

Indeed. Good idea though, but trees are mischievous plants, they will eat anything

Looks really nice, one of my favs in the competition.
But it would do good with more AA if you ask me.
You seem to have enough colours for a far more efficient AA.

homeworkstudios In reply to Shadowwwolf [2008-10-20 19:01:20 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, but what does "AA" mean?

Shadowwwolf In reply to homeworkstudios [2008-10-20 21:10:43 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, Anti Aliasing. Smoothing out your picture.
Dunno if you just didn't know the shortcut or the meaning of it:
But if you don't know the meaning:
It's basicly smoothing. For example: You have a light green ball with a dark green shade.
And to smooth it out, you go around the edge of the dark green with a medium shade of green.
This way it kind of blends. Don't overdo it though! That gives stuff a fuzzy look.

homeworkstudios In reply to Shadowwwolf [2008-10-21 16:45:30 +0000 UTC]

I've never heard it as an abbreviation, but I totally agree with you about that. It sure needs some smoothing here and there (the branch in front of the moon, for instance). I may tweak it a little bit more later on but I'll wait for the winners to be announced first because it won't be fair to edit my entry now. Thanks again for the help. I'm always opened to constructive criticism.

Aww man, now that is just adorable. Yes, it's a piece depicting a tree eating children for snacks, but honestly, that's just plain awesome Excellent choice in the design style and brilliant work with the overall colour scheme and sense of realism Well done!!

homeworkstudios In reply to purplezoni [2008-10-20 18:56:27 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! This is my first pixel art with limited colour palette and I wasn't quite sure if I'll manage to make it as detailed (due to the low colour count) as I wished, but I'm glad you liked it.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

purplezoni In reply to homeworkstudios [2008-10-20 23:06:24 +0000 UTC]

No problem I think the limited palette worked well to create the spooky look and atmosphere the illustration called for. Plus sometimes simplicity beats out complexity, and this piece is one of the very few ones that has executed that politicly quite effectively.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

homeworkstudios In reply to purplezoni [2008-10-21 16:32:32 +0000 UTC]

I'm more than pleased to read this. The atmosphere is the most important thing I look for in a picture because the main idea could not always be understood at first sight. But if there's an atmosphere that grabs your attention immediately, then the picture has fulfilled its purpose.

purplezoni In reply to homeworkstudios [2008-10-21 16:49:59 +0000 UTC]

I couldn't agree with you more. You could have the most detailed piece out there, but if you just focus on that and fail to convey the feeling or personality in the artwork, then it becomes stiff, and detail alone doesn't make a piece something greater than just art. It always needs more and adding atmosphere can do just that.
