Today for Anything Goes Friday, I finally got back around to working on something creative. I gave myself another pixel art speed challenge and decided to do sword... again. I don't know why, I just like making swords. Anyway, this took just over 1 hour to complete. Have a look at the steps below, and the ANIMATED gif at the end!
Step 1
Outline... I'm in a rush on this, so I'm going with a simple looking sword. Get that thing outlined and keep moving!
Step 2
Basic color started. I wanted to do something warmer and went with earthy tones for the handle.
Step 3
Basic blade colored... we're almost done already!
Step 4
A quick pattern. I decided this sword should look older and started making a basic dot pattern on the blade.
Step 5
Add some light rays.
Step 6
Finishing it up... just added some more shading around the handle and a little symbol at the base of the blade.
ANIMATED PROGRESS & LARGE VERSION
Happy Friday Everyone!
