Um… Well… scratch that last entry.
I did some more tests and decided to do all of the work as vector art inside Flash. I came up with a really simple buy appealing style that I can create really quickly and should be able to reuse as much as the pixel art that I was thinking to do.
This is kind of a big deal for me because I am so accustomed to doing things so detailed – This will be a huge departure from my usual stuff. Here is why I’ve changed my mind:
1. Small file sizes
2. reusability
3. this style is fast to make
4. Its appealing to the average person
5. I will learn a new art style
6. It is totally portable to different file sizes
7. I can create it right inside Flash
8. It looks BEAUTIFUL on hi rez screens.
9. It just feels right
