Pixel Art / Re: First Pixel Art

Alright, I combined a bit of your advice and created less than 32x32 ball with basic shading. I used 3 reds and 2 grays, and I tried to use dithering correctly. Please let me know if the dithering and shading look okay.

I guess I'll try and draw a cube on a blank-ish background, and see how that goes. Thanks for the advice, guys!

I added a bit more features, and tried to shadow in a bit more. It doesn't look horrible, but it doesn't really look good either IMHO. What do you think?

I started on a new one, trying really hard to get the shape right. Unfortunately, I ONLY had time to get the shape the way I want it. I didn't get any features or anything finished, except for one highlight. Let me know if it looks any better, you know, without the face and all. By the way, this is not your cat. I didn't get a chance to add the white part in. Anyway, got to go, I'll check back tomorrow.

Pixel Art / First Pixel Art
« on: November 24, 2016, 09:26:54 pm »
This is the first time I really tried to create pixel art. I used Paint.net with some built in blur and noise effects. I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be using those, but I couldn't get it to look half-decent without those effects. This is *supposed* to be of my cat. I don't really know how to shade at all, so I didn't attempt it. If anyone has any tips regarding shading or what other art aspects could be added to this, let me know. I'm not sure how to show images, so I'm using photobucket. If there is an easier way, could someone let me know?

General Discussion / Re: Read the Rules, then introduce yourself here.
« on: November 24, 2016, 05:51:30 pm »
I guess this is where I introduce myself. I am a highschool junior (Grade 11 for you non-Americans) and I have very minimal background in art. The only art class I took was Drawing II, and the only reason I took it was to get the fine art credit I need to graduate. I have never drawn on my own time. I was hoping to try out pixel art, even though art never interested me I kind of wanted to challenge myself to learn something totally outside my comfort zone. This website is exactly what I was looking for to help me learn how to create pixel art, and I really want to be an active user. Anyway, I'll try and upload something I made soon so you guys can critique. Cheers!
