(a)DDL_013_Finding the right raw materials for your project and your budget
Daily Activities
The artworks of Dimday Red use a lot of compositing, so finding the right photo can save a lot of time. It is a good idea to use licenced material in order to avoid legal implications if your game becomes too successful. Good quality material can be expensive for a bootstrap project, so finding sources of free images can be really useful.
Intended Results
Find low-cost or free photos as a reference to the game’s artworks.
Actual Results
Almost as intended. The variety is not on par with paid libraries.
Time Spent
About an hour to collect the links and try a couple of searches.
Tips
Free stock photography in most cases won’t be at the same quality and variety level as paid libraries, but it can be sufficient in many cases.
