I know I'm not a great pixel artist, but it would be nice to be thanked.

Pixel Art / Re: Second Try For Tree

The problem is I find working with 1 pixel easier for me thats why I don't use 3-5 pixel pencils and so.

Even in my old thread they tell me the same but I know my reason why I can't work with it,I just find it harder then 1 pixel brush.


People are telling you to do it for a good reason. It's not meant to be easy. It's challenging but you're not going to learn if you keep dismissing the advice that we're giving you.
Fine, use a 1 pixel brush if it's such a big deal. But please try and block out the shapes instead of drawing outlines. The outlines will be done later! Think of it as coloring in before you do the outline, your shapes will have an outline without having to worry about it.

Can you at least try it?

micintexp - I'm not sure why you wanted your last thread closed. Seems like your still on the same track. But all of the good advice was in that thread and you really need to go back and pay attention to what people said.
But I'll tell you what to do the simplest way I can, and please just try this.

In Graphics Gale or photoshop, or whatever you're using, select a thicker brush than 1 pixel wide. Say, 3 or 5 pixels wide.

Select a brown color, any brown will do for now.

Looking at a reference photo of a REAL tree, draw the trunk. NO OUTLINES! Just with one color, block out the whole trunk.
Do not mirror (actually never mirror a tree, it looks terrible).  Just be loose with the brush and use that one color, NO black outlines and NO shading.


Once you do that, post it here and we can crit it step by step.

At this point I think you're jumping way too far ahead without advice. When someone says you're going about it the wrong way you end up throwing it out and starting again, with all the same (and some new) problems.

Continue your current tree if you want, but just do me this favor and draw a trunk.
