General Discussion / Re: Pixel Art ~ Am I the only one?

I think it's alot easier to learn from trying than studying.

A C+C thread teaches me a lot more than most tutorials I find.

Pixel Art / Re: trying to get good with pixels
« on: April 23, 2012, 12:58:42 am »
Thanks for the reply.

My main goal was actually to get better at outlines and pixel specific techniques. Of course I still have a lot to learn that's not specific to pixels but I don't think these designs were a good representation of my skills.

The main reason why they are so boring is that when making them I was too focused on making clean lines so I didn't go for dynamic interesting poses.

I will color one of the outlines you showed me though, because practice is practice!

In the mean time if anyone has any other pointers on things I do completely wrong or I could improve based on the last posts, please tell me.

I'll be working on a better design and I'll post that later so I can improve my drawings in general too.

I took a bit of time to try and improve my lines. I think the face improved very much. The little guy is now closer to my original paper sketch too.

Still looking for comments :)

I also tried to make another rendering...

Hey everyone,

So I finally took time to get better with pixels.

I'm really starting back to the roots (not that I ever got really good haha).

So I just wanted comments on the lines I drew today. Complicated stuff like broken lines, banding, etc. I want to get G00D!

Now that I think of it, having a colored version is abit repetitive but meh.

I included my attempt at rendering a small part of the face so you can see how much of a mess it becomes when I pretend to be a real pixel artist haha.

Pixel Art / Re: running sprite animation. CC badly needed

Make one leg significally lighter and see what happens.

I think you should either do everything in pixel art or everything in vectors, a mix of both has never looked good to me.

Pixel Art / Re: Making our first game. Character Sprite. C+C Please?

I think your character needs a design. Right now I don't see any design in him, it's completely forgettable.

I suspect that you make it this simple because you are afraid to make a complex walk cycle and all other animations, but I'm sure you can come up with better heros that are very easy to animate too.

Triangle with a baseball hat
Magnet with shoes
Beach ball with glasses
Anything!

Use references, just don't use only one and copy everything.

Pixel Art / Re: I need some critique and advice for my new album cover

I would personnally try doing it "for real". I think the result could be much more baddass.

If you made it look like a real sprite it would be alot more interesting.

Cool music.

Really love the style. I'd like to see it developped over a whole tile set.
