Splinterlands Art Contest // Week 163 // Venari Crystalsmith

avatar

Hi all,

as my first contest entry for the Splinterlands Art Contest I decided to make a pixel style Venari Crystalsmith avatar. The image and animation were made in the aseprite pixel art editor.

Have fun and good luck on the battlefield!

This is great! Did you use any particular pallete when you started on this piece?

Thanks! I wanted to be as close as possible to the colours of the card artwork. Within aseprite that is pretty easy:

  • open the original art (in my case the Venari Crystalsmith card artwork)
  • on the left you can see the palette, above that click the icon with the three lines
  • select "save palette" and save it
  • open a new file
  • click the icon with the line again and then select "load palette"

I am a little messy with my folders and usually save everything in my "downloads" folder and from time to time sort it into the corresponding folders, but It would be more clever to save it in the right pace from the start 😜 I then picked some of the colors for my Crystalsmith from that palette. If you do not use aseprite you can also pick the hex or rgb values of single colours from an existing image with the help of this homepage.
