This is a comparison of the original sketches to the finished product of each character from my game.

They each took form on paper after hours of deliberation of exactly how they should look as starting pixel art for myself at least requires some initial inspiration and concept art to create. This also was what helped me realise that creating the whole enemies wouldn't work within the time I had for this project so I took  their essential pieces to be used as weapons and damageable parts alike. I do feel it's truly been an evolution for my characters from their paper forms to their pixel art.
