catsfolly Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 I think a higher vanishing point (aka. horizon line) might help make the scene look "deeper", and maybe switching the light blue to dark blue. I tried switching the light blue and dark blue. The road color clashed with the car color, so I had to change that, too. This was the result - (It's just a still frame. so don't click on it...) I think it does improve the sense of depth, and the mood of the screen... Catsfolly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsfolly Posted May 20, 2014 Author Share Posted May 20, 2014 This is my first attempt at a proper background. i haven't created any cityscape tiles yet, currently I just periodically draw a tower. The looping of the gif is imperfect, so the stars "jump" a bit when it loops. <-- click to animate. Catsfolly 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyBee Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Its improving but the dense clusters of stars detract rather than enhance the scene in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I agree, it seems a little busy and not necessary to the scene. I know you will get it soon! Now hury up and make a cool tron game and maybe you can include it in tron complete! HAHA just kidding.......or was I? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsfolly Posted May 21, 2014 Author Share Posted May 21, 2014 Unfortunately, it's easier to animate a row of 20 stars than a row of 10 or 5. When I get a better cityscape up, there will be less visible sky. But I'll look at thinning out the stars too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Any more work done on this???? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsfolly Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 Nope. Unfortunately, recently I find that it's more fun to start new projects than it is to actually finish the old ones... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fsuinnc Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Seriously! Nobody chimed in with "hey you should offer pre-release sales". (sorry, I am actually not in the hater camp, but I saw the opening and just had to go there. truly meant as joke.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
