so I decided to at least make a thread on stage concepts that were either scrapped mugen stages or environmental work. I'll might also try my hand at spriting. For now here are some concepts I did

The second picture is a really wonderful painting and I'd love to see more like that from you. The very thought that these could be stages is really great as well.

Man... These paintings are good. But transferring them to a more refined form to be used as a stage is going to take work. I honestly haven't heard or even seen many examples of converting/creating backgrounds as pixel art. In fact, I don't think it's ever actually been discussed in this section at length at all.


There's always pioneers, so I hope you could be the one to do that.

It can be done or I could render the sketches into cleaner artwork if I get the chance to finalize them thanks for the comments

After a certain amount of work is put into them they'd make great stage material. Some of the ones you've converted in stages in the past were pretty good but they did have that sketchy look still. I think it can be done, it just needs to be worked on for quite some time and have several layers.

I really like all of these concepts and they could very well lead to some cool stages if you get around to it.

This is the closest thing to a pixel art stage tutorial I've ever seen anyways. It may not be the exact look your going for ,but there are alot of useful tips to put you in some kind of direction(as well as a bunch of the other tutorials on that site in general). I wish I knew how N.O. Vice did his because it might be more relevant here.

I agree I just need to learn how to slow down when making stages if I get back into  stage making that is
