Just a question: When you pixel these double-wide things, is there an app that treats them as single pixels, or do you pixel them on the 64 itself, or do you fake it? I imagine it would be hard to emulate a double-wide style with a single-pixel painting app without accidentally having some single pixels in there. Especially when it's this large an image.
I use Photoshop, which makes it very simple -
View > Anamorphic (2:1) 2 Once you set this, every pixel appears to be 2x1, make a 2x1 pixel brush and you're good to go. Once finished pixeling, just stretch the image 2x horizonatally, make sure to not use smooth anti-aliasing when doing so.
___Hmm yes, I definitely agree with you guys about them all looking too different, but that's what happens when your skill changes as you work. Level 1 was done first, Level 3 was done second and level 2 was done last. Oddly, I want them to remain indicative of my ability when making them. But if any one of them has defects I
do want to fix that. With too much time spent on them by now, I should probably move on to the next set. There are 4 sets total, each with 3 weapons. Coder department is next . . . mwahaha.
