Royal Knight - Character Concept Art

This character concept art was created as part of a personal project, and also as a way to explore and study pixel art in a extra fun and meaningful way. :)
I had always been curious about pixel art, but wasn’t sure where to start—so I gave myself a small challenge: design a character from the ground up.
What began as a simple study gradually turned into a full concept with very simple design to use for the pixel study, complete with personality, design details, and motion ideas.
I also explored how this character could function in an isometric game environment with different aspect of game style, imagining how they might be brought to life in gameplay.
Although the study came out a SD character out of full body proportion character, it was a good practice how to imagine and transfer the different art style to another production.
There is a long way to learn but never stop :)
