King Joe Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 I was really looking forward to seeing this kit, but I'm afraid it has fallen to Brickshelf's downtime...

Kodrak Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Looks like something anyone could make.Try having some more shades, colors, etc. Quote not autistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Joe Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 NOW I SEE IT!It's a good start. However, like Kodrak, I would recommend adding some colors. For example, let's look at 8-bit Mega Man. Hes not just one shade of blue, he's two, while still being 8-Bit.I've taken your tahu and added a different shade of red to his shoulders, hands, and knees, as well as putting the mouth detail on his mask, just to see how it would look, and I think you could improve this kit exponentially if you were to add a couple other colors. 8-Bit doesn't mean that the entire kit can only have 8 colors, it means that the sprites themselves can only have 8 different colors.

Fire Entity Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) Not to get too overly technical here, but 8-bit does not actually mean "8 colours" in any sense at all. A bit is a memory storage location, and 8-bit means that each pixel can use 8 of these storage locations to specify its colour. In 8-bit you can have up to 256 colours, including black and white. If you are interested, there's a blog article going into more detail on blogs.adobe.com, here: linkI was part of a megaman knock-off kit a while back that was called 8-bit. Those were good times. I enjoy the super-simplified representations of the Bionicle characters, interesting to notice what parts of them we choose to focus on and which we leave out, such as for you, you decided the different colour for arms and legs was not a necessary detail to define the character.I support this random act of creativity.

Calvirick Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Well finally. It's been too long that someone has finally made a good and decent, 8-bit version of Bionicle. Keep working. It's lookign great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
