White building: I'll go from the top. White in my opinion Isn't very good a good color for a building. Also In you other sprites the light is coming from the left in this one it's coming from the right. Make it so the light comes from the same direction in all your sprites.

Blue checker roofed house: Not really any complaints.

Yellow house: No complaints.

Brick house: work on shading the white part.

Red house: No complaints.

Blue house: Hmmm... this house bugs me for some reason. maybe make the building part shorter by say 5 pixels?

Blue house with brown roof: the roof is weird. prehaps you should make the building part Skinnier? and shade the roof.

Short brick house: again shade the white part.

green house: make the roof shorter.(just what I think though)

PC: shade the roof.

Overall your not all that bad. You just need to hone your skills when it comes to shading. Good luck.

The latest one is your best so far, no doubt.



Your older tiles in general had horribly saturated colors, that would make one think you used Ms Paint's default colors. That blue house tops the list, followed by the yellow roofed one and the green one.
Do a favor to our eyes and lower the saturation on the bright colors, please.


Then we have our black outline problems. Black outlines can be used correctly around dark colors, and shadowy places on buildings.. (Your most recent one the best example)
But then take a good hard look at that white building with the four spheres on top. The triangle on the roof with the pokeball, specifically. See how hideous it looks? White inside, with a black outline of sh it around it.. A slightly dark gray would look alot better on it.

Other houses have this problem as well, like the one with the long yellowy roof. Instead of black, a dark brown would look ten times better on it. Just remember that for light colors, a black outline is not the way to go.


You should also fix the jagged lines all over your tiles. I'd recommend to search for an 'anti-aliasing' spriting tutorial to help you out with it.




EDIT: F yeah, 15 POSTS!!!

Hmmm... you do have trouble with shading...but you'll get the hang of it. If you want me to i can edit this one and show you what i mean by light coming from the same direction in all your tiles...it appears in this one...the light is coming from the right and left. Where as most of the time it comes from the upper left hand corner. If you want i can show you what i mean. Anyway i wish you the best of luck.

Alright i took a minute and edited this tile for you. You don't have to use it if you don't want to. This is for future reference.

Hey it looks better! But which way do you want the light to come from? Your tiles have light coming from every which-a-way. This one has light from the right so it seems. Just match up which direction the light comes from on all your tiles. It will look a lot better in my opinion.

I have some advice, some of your tiles are saved as JPEG and/or BMP, both are very bad to save your artwork as. I did notice some of them are PNG. PNG is what you want to go with all the time, it does not distort your artwork like JPEG will
