River pixel art questions
Why does my river look like a road?
A uniform width and flat fill can cause that. Add a changing bank shape, a few water highlights and a clearer connection to the surrounding terrain.
How do I keep a winding river readable?
Leave enough channel width at each bend. If both banks touch after reduction, widen the narrow parts before adding decorative ripples.
What kind of motion does the river GIF show?
It is a short whole-illustration floating loop made from one licensed artwork. It does not simulate natural movement, change individual parts or reproduce a hand-drawn animation cycle. The exported canvas is 128 x 128 pixels.
Make your own river pixel art.
Keep reflections simpler than the land shapes around them. A few horizontal highlights can suggest water without breaking the river into disconnected blue patches.
