My Pixelart version of the Wave Runner in the Splinterlands game. I tried to challenge myself for this pixelart by making most of the things moving or will be animated. I must say that patience is the key to finish it. You need to have a good focus, so that you will not mess the sequence.
Right now the Wave Runner is looking fine. It is just waiting for the right moment to catch its next prey.
PROOF OF WORK
I started on the sand of the sea.
Then refined the edges of the sand.
Creating the water and the sky.
Added some subjects like mountains on the background. The opacity was also adjusted for the water.
I put some details on the mountains.
Then I started to create the outline of the main subject, the Wave Runner.
Coloring its whole body
Added the eyes and gills.
Adding the second predator of the wave runner, which is in charge for looking prey above the sea.
Coloring the body and adding some details.
Making of the sea weeds or the things that we usually see at the sand or bottom of the sea.
I also created a chest that will open and close later for the animation.
Then I added other living things like crab
Since the chest will open and close. I created different postions of the lid of the chest.
Making of the third position of the lid.
Then I also started animating the seaweeds after the chest.
Here I decided to add another set of seaweed at the center.
Then added some rocks as a cover or decorations.
I also made bubbles since the chest will open. It will throw some bubbles later.
And it was all set.
