Have you ever done pixelart anon? What do you think of it?I drew this today, working on eyeballing colors instead of using predefined palettes. Colors are hard when you are used to working in black and white, but i feel like i am improving.

Yes, I still do it sometimes
>>7895743AI still have problems with the holding gun pose.
>>7895746Heh... I woouldn't have needed to stick that closely to the reference, so it's on me for being lazy.Be kind to my model.
>>7895593yeah. I post it mostly in /agdg/ your burning tech sage fella looks awesome. >>7895743nice hair highlight shapes and shading and I like the shadow dither
>>7895743While I tried holding a prop like that I realized it's a really dumb pose for holding a rifle. Goes to show dolls aren't the best references. At least the kung fu grip should look slightly more natural now.
>>7895593Woah dude this is awesome! I like pixel art but i prefer to do just normal art because its easier, but i like the result of pixel art
How do I get better
>>7896314set a target (like street fighter 3 or metal slug)and then make a game with lots of animation, and constatnly look at those sprites to see how they handled lines/shapes/hands/eyes/light etc
Sweet
those are really coolI've been trying to de-rust my pixel skills lately as well, after not doing it for years... here's a bunny girl
>>7895593BEST THREAD
>>7895593Yes. I've animationfagged with pixelorama on few threads. It's pretty fun and easy with mouse since I lack table real estate for my drawing tablet at the moment.Maybe some day I try to make myself a wallpaper with pixel art!
At what point does it stop being pixel art and becomes drawing with a binary brush?
Bruh eyeballing colors is normal. It only becomes a palette when you export it and choose to work in that palette
>>7906950When you stop drawing pixel by pixel. So the 500-1000px range typically.
>>7906950>>7906957Use tools designed for pixel art and you wouldn't need to ask such questions. Especially with period accurate tools it's a non question. 1000px canvas, are you crazy? Your screen resolution is 320x200 and you can't zoom out far enough to even see the whole thing at once.Indexed palettes is just how colors is done. 32bpp true color? What even is that? No such thing. You get 16 colors each defined by three bytes. 0-255 granularity per channel. Well, calling them "channels" wouldn't even be accurate since the whole image is just map of bytes referring to a table...
>>7895593Hey anon, i like what you made, i think it's really good.A few months back, i ended up making this randomly, Kind of out of nowhere. I have really no idea what i was doing and i have no artistic skills or knowledge. But i ended up watching some youtube videos and ended up coming up with this.
