VISUAL DESIGN - PIXEL ROBOT WEEK_04_

PIXEL ART - ROBOT, AND ROBOT IN SCENE

The brief asked us to create a robot using pixels, on Photoshop. I set the brush, rubber and the page layout, to fit this style and then began to draw. In the lesson, I constructed the main head, body and backpack shape, these were all going in a 30 degree motion/ angle so it gave off a 3D look.

For homework, I finished off the body, and then colored in the robot. I wanted to make sure that my color wasn't just two shades for each that I picked, I wanted to show a lot of variation in where light and shadow would be on my robot. I think that this adds a lot to my actual piece and makes it more than a just a box on top of another.

I am happy with the final outcome and it does meet the brief. however if I was to to this again, I would perhaps change a few things. One would be to maybe add an antenna to his head, and a smaller cylinder under the large one ad a rocket pack, then maybe some flames to come out. Other then that I really enjoyed this process, tricky at first but then got easier, and am happy with the outcome. 


I added the robot to the scene and but him next to Einstein, as if hes walking away from him. I did position him on the convey belt as if to say "next toy" but he was less noticeable when there.
