Free 2D Game Art

blue_elephant

So I've been learning Inkscape to draw art for my games and I love it! I am almost getting addicted and sometimes I just need something to draw so heres the deal:
I will probably only have time for one person a week or so so don't be too upset if I don't draw something for you.
It can be anything from UI to characters and animations. My favorite things are mechanical stuff like helicopters and robots but I can do other stuff.
It would be very much appreciated if you could please add some credit in your games to mine if you use this art.
Thanks!

@EggeyGames

EggeyGames

Wow, thanks for the art. It is a lot better than what I could do. Also if this isn't asking for to much could you make a red eviler looking ball like that but with a mohawk instead of a police hat and have it facing to the right not left? Thanks again for the art work.

@EggeyGames
I couldn't get a mohawk to look right so I just gave him devil horns.

EggeyGames

Oh, okay it looks great. Thank you!

EggeyGames

As my final request could you make a please make a sort of broken down rectangular stone platform. Sorry if asking for so much, you are just really good.

blue_elephant

Sorry if asking for so much, you are just really good.

Nobody else is requesting haha and thanks.
My best shot at a stone wall:

EggeyGames

Nothing is there. Did you upload the picture wrong?

blue_elephant

Really? It's there for me. Are you on a mobile device? I think sometimes they only work on a desktop.

CodeMonster

Jarivespa

blue_elephant

CodeMonster

@blue_elephant - It's great that you are offering free art... but I would suggest polishing your skills and using google images for references. E.g. the police man's cap looks a lot like an old american soldiers cap and the mohawk turned into a horn of sorts.
Think of the contrast in your image - the hands get lost as they have the same colour as the body - by adding more highlight you can bring them out nicely. By adding some extra highlight to the ball shape it will look less boring - a radial fill as a base is fine but some added detail - e.g. a secondary light, a bit of added shine and some shadow from the cap - will make a big difference with very little effort.

This quick try in inkscape might show what I mean:



Keep up the work but try and look at reference images, look at how others did this sort of art [e.g. there is heaps and heaps of smiley illustrations out there [which basically is your ball with eyes and expresssions] and add that little bit of polish. It's a sure way to improve your skills.

awesome art @blue_elephant can you do flat design art?

blue_elephant

@SpriteAttack
Wow I see what you mean haha, yours is a lot better. I did those images pretty fast. I'll be sure to take more time on them as I can make better art.
People and faces aren't my forte haha. I do use google images most of the time. I actually used this as a reference image for the police cap but I can see why I should've used a more modern one

Thanks for the tips. Your a really good artist and I hope to be half as good as you someday.
I guess this is way I'm offering it for free haha.
Thanks!

blue_elephant

@allc1865 thanks!

yasoofx

can you make a hand with 1 finger then 2,3,4,5,0 ??

future_games_101

Hey, can you make a steel beam ( w:40 ; h:320 )?

SpriteAttack

@blue_elephant... yes... the blockbuddies policeman is not the ideal reference. I had some technical restrictions that caused the hat to be a lot flatter than I would have liked...

Keep up the good work!
