General Discussion / how important is drawing skill to pixel art?
« on: May 21, 2012, 02:15:34 pm »
Having recently gotten back into pixel art only to have my laptop die I've had to go back to pencil and paper. I've been trying to do some concept sketches for sprites/characters and they are coming out terrible! With a good reference my sketches can look ok, but still nothing special. When I attempt more creative sketches relying more on imagination it ends up looking far worse. Looking at the creativity sticky I see a lot of you are very talented in other art techniques too, so its got me wondering how far you can really advance in pixel art when you can't draw.
