Ok, I think I'm gonna turn this thread into a dump of any art that I do, since I always seem to take a while to come with any ideas for anything and I don't really want to make a ton of threads. Daily Sketch and Pixel Joint stuff will definitely be in here as well as any anatomy study that I do.

You could try squats!

Just the man I wanted to talk to. I did more research and I found this site: http://2dwillneverdie.com/blog/kiwis-7-step-program-for-learning-pixel-art/

Do you think those methods are valid?

General Discussion / Exercises for Pixel Art?

Just a quick question. I was wondering if there were any reliable exercises to practice pixel art. I know that Pixel Dailies and weekly contests are good for that stuff, but are there any others? Thank you in advance.

Yeah, I tried telling him that but he really wants to do it so I can't really do anything. He has a "learn as you do it" mentality, but that's easy for him since he's a college student majoring in business. He even thinks that I just need to draw something everyday to get better and not formally learn anything about art and design, which can happen, but that's not how I learn.

Sorry, that last part was a bit of a rant, but I'm gonna leave it there.

General Discussion / Game Plot Ideas
« on: May 13, 2017, 08:15:38 pm »
Hey all. My cousin and I are gonna try to make a game and we can't decide on a plot. So far we've come up with two plots. These aren't really very developed so sorry if these are kind of bare bones. (Also forgive me for any grammatical errors)

1. There are two continents. On one continent, there is life, peace, happiness and unity. On the other there is a barren wasteland, ravaged by deadly storms and a long forgotten war. One day, shadowy figures rise in the land of peace, wreaking havoc and kidnapping innocent people. Its the MC's job, along with many other characters that they will meet along the way, to find out what's going on and put a stop to the madness.

2. There are a multitude of Kingdom Hearts-esque worlds (we haven't picked an exact # yet). All the worlds hate each other (There's a machine race that likes efficiency and order, so they dislike races that don't follow that mentality). One day an all powerful sorcerer calls the rulers of each world and asks them if they would be ok with him bringing peace between them. They all say no and team up against the sorcerer. The sorcerer, in a blind fit of rage, uses his magic to fuse all the worlds into one. Every race now unites to split the worlds back up so they each pick a hero to send after the wizard so that he may split the worlds apart.

Please choose which plot you liked the most and what could be done to make it better if it's not too much to ask. Thanks guys.

I tried messing with DesignDoll a little bit, but I'm not sure if it's good or not

Are there any problems with the skull I posted?

Hi, sorry I haven't posted in a while. IRL things have been keeping me busy. However, in that time, an artist drew my friends picture of me (Here: http://i.imgur.com/eLj9uuB.png) and I decided to trace it and see how it would come out in pixel form. I haven't shaded it or anything, just want to see how the anatomy is. Disclaimer: I am not claiming the artwork as my own, only using it to practice stuff.

Sorry, this should've been in it's own topic.

Alright, decided to trace this skull as I thought it was a better reference: http://i.imgur.com/HaANEkv.jpg

Managed to come out with this:



Didn't do the teeth because I have to go to school tomorrow. How'd I do?

You could also try Krita. It is a lot of fun. You can even map they shortcuts to match Ps.

Thanks for telling me about this! It feels good to draw again!

Anyway, I decided to trace the skull that Cyangmou posted so that I could get a better understanding of where things go and how things are shaped.



I don't really know if I did it correctly, but I now have a better understanding of general facial structure now than I did with my previous attempt.
