Half (res) Life
Top right is the colour palette I used. I used this mostly as a guide rather than sticking 100% to it, but I think the flexibility paid off.

Half (res) Life

With a little free time at hand recently but a distinctive lack of internet connection to download all my favourite software toys, I decided to fill the weekend with somthing I always like messing with; Pixel stuff!
Despite it's cute appearances, this is in no way optimised and I actually had quite a bit of trouble constantly adjusting UV's to atlas all my detail while still making the source 60x60 Photoshop document useable. In the end, I bit the bullet and used separate sheets for all, though I've got a pretty good idea on how I can change my workflow for optimisation and engine use.
It doesn't help I've been blasting through Black Mesa in between work bouts.
