Where can I find a good tileset tutorial?

[worldspawn]

I just started learning pixel art and figured I'd start out by making some terrain tiles. I did the easy ones like grass, water, and forests but I'm stuck on mountains. I'm going for a top down view and want to make mountain ranges like in the final fantasy games using tiles. Are there any good tutorials out there for this because I couldn't find one.

http://gas13.ru/v3/tutorials/sywtbapa_almighty_grass_tile.php grass tile tutorial and if you scroll down you can find trees and sand I think and some other great sections

You can click a link on the bottom to go to the next page. It's about 6 pages long or so. Covers water, grass, sand, etc.


Oh, btw, does anyone know where to find Tsugumo's tutorials beyond part 11? I know he added two chapters later on, but none of the mirrors have them. There was at least the one on lighting.

Hello! I remember I found his extended tutorial somewhere else as well.

He has no linking, but see the 1 up there? Just type in the chapter number you want to see and it will load. It goes all the way up to chapter15.

I don't think that's a very good site to learn from. Especially for a person with a tutorial mindset. I'm talking about the - "I don't know how to do draw this (rock, grass, tree) so I will look for a tutorial on it how to draw it" instead of the more fruitful approach of learning from sources which will help your overall skill set holistically.

Thanks that would be helpful if you can find it.

Here's a few from pixelzone.

All the links should work. I'm just a little worried because they didn't before. Though that was quite a while ago.

Also, the site that Antifarea posted has links to several other pixel art tutorial areas. Those links for that page are in it's right hand navigagion.
