We started A Dragon Named Coal almost 4 years back. At a game jam… and I was making pixel art in Illustrator. With time comes experience and some early characters have got major overhauls.
These are three stages that the Soldier design went through (not the only stages, but the first and most recent plus one from the middle). Revisions to design make a massive difference.
Any other pixel artists here? How has your art improved over time and what tools are you using?

ADNC Art: #TeamCake Cake is the best. Thing. Ever. Just ask Coal.
Gavin's Growth Gavin is another companion who starts as a kid and grows up one of two ways. We wanted both designs to be totally awesome. I went through some really generic blah stuff till I felt the designs clicked into place.

ADNC Art: Valderun Burns Coal returns to Valderun a little older and a little wiser, only to find a whole new host of troubles to contend with. (Just when you think you’ve got a handle on things, someone goes and sets everything on fire. Yeesh.)
ADNC Art: Valderun Burns Process Some of the stages (Thumbnail, Rough Sketch, Line Art, and Flat Colors) behind creating “Valderun Burns” - a promotional piece for A Dragon Named Coal. The complete, full color art is comin’ soon!
