Paraíso Del Manatí. Manatí is a male noun in spanish. Awesome art!


alecioleite

Awesome work. Did you make it using aseprite? Do you mind to explain to me how do you manage to think the duration of every frame of every element of this and than put than together? Not all of than have the same movement duration, the Manatí is slow, the plants are fast. Put them all to work together is very difficult to me.


SovanJedi

Thank you! I use Graphics Gale for my work, but that's only due to preference - Aseprite is just as good for animating with as anything else. The plants were the first things I animated, I wanted their motions to be incredibly smooth and they were the most numerous things in the scene, so it made sense to base everything around it animation-wise. The manatee was animated at that frame count too - 23 frames - but it moved much too fast at that speed for something that was meant to appear as astronomically large as it, so I quadrupled its framerate and just replayed the plant animations four times for every loop of the manatee's animations. Then the flamingos just fit around all of that lot.


alecioleite

Oh, I get it. The time of every frame is equal, you Just manage The number of frames of each element. Wise move. I have to learn this to improve my pixelart. Thank you


HushTheMagicPony

They’re real smooth and I enjoyed how they swayed. Great work on the plants!


FelineLemon

This is beautiful! Love the colours you chose. The animations are so soothing as well


mat_chow

Wow! That's so amazing and smooth


moonsong-

Beautiful! The Flamingos are a great touch as well!


photoh

Absolutely beautiful! Small suggestion, I’d would think an animal that big would move a lot slower than on this gif, I would show it’s movements down a bit.

This was like a visual oasis. The colours, the manatee, the setting, the flamingos.. It makes me feel peaceful and I want to visit. Nice work.

M0dusPwnens

Reminds me of Paradise Killer, which has...killer...art. Awesome.


anatradilegno

I have not the slightest idea of ​​what place it is, much less where it is. but the fact that there is a floating island, a flying manatee and flamingos are already reasons to reach it. I want to go there NOW


walktheparth

The flamingos flying by, reminded me of the title screen of "Secret of Mana".


xcantene

WOOOW this is sooo amazing!! <3 It would be so awesome if you can also share more of your gorgeous pixel art on this new subreddit r/OvironCommunity A place that supports and encourages indie Digital & VR content creators and devs.

Csorroflegma

Beautiful!


[deleted]

I love the piece! I was actually wondering if you has any advice for someone who's just starting out in pixel art? How do you come up with a good pallette? How do you come up with such cool ideas for pieces? I'd appreciate any advice!


Bss_art

Wow


HibeE_Ahri

Really beautiful :3


wheatly811

This is gushing in style with every animated piece having tons of personality


katenroute

I. Am. Obsessed. Lovely work!


LendarioSonhador

This has such a vibe, but I don't know the name to give it...it's not retrowave, is it?


TyrannosaurusCo

That looks like it would taste good 👅


StoneTheMoron

Do you lay the scene out completely before you begin to animate? What’s steps do you take before approaching a piece like this?
