cool idea, i once thought of re doing an old sig from a different view but i never got round it, im bad a copying stuff anyways >_< will be good to see this finished, should be good. will cc when youve done a bit more =) PJB21

new avvy, this one for me =) a reminder of the true meaning of christmas PJB21

http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/9734/pwnnfl7.png : Lol I can actually finish that if you want :P W00t recolor tool : / Paint.net Work with what your sig has :P If you dont want I'm interested in stealing the hair for another project :P Edit3: I actually like the anime santa look , you know, not to get caught up in self glorification or anything over having spent 15ish minutes using built in tools. just to let you know pnd can do alot better :wink: however if you got the original psd then i can have a go at giving him a santa =) as for me, well, why should i? PJB21

v2 is defo better, however the ear still looks weird, too ridgid. meh, i know its kinda ment to be ridigd, cos its listening for a reply, but it looks weird :? the moon looks good now, the aa has worked well =) maybe a bit brighter glow around the moon, dunno, see how it looks. the fur looks better now, however its a bit too thick around the throat for my liking. as for your crimbo sig, i suggest you have him on a house roof, with a city landscape behind, would look bery nice (kinda cliche again, but most things are in realist =P) however it could be hard to do that much detail. oh idea! you could have a city landscape but have it blurred out of focus and pixel it that way! that would looks good and is easier. also gives you a chance to work on aa again =) PJB21

here we go, i did some. hope you like it. may do mkore later. PJB21

you also know i cant texture to save my life. and thats true, mainly cos its my life in trying to save. beside that in VERY busy with school work and the such, christmas is a busy time of the year and i have alot to do. i also have a large family so theres alot to sort out. i will try and do some, but i cant do alot. i may have a go at those ships, give them some linework and stuffs. ok just copied it into paint. but it will take time. PJB21

i prefer it to your current personaly, but thats me. cc wise... the ear looks rather long, make it shorter and see if it looks better =) his chin looks rather like a kidney bean o0 but thats only really just weirdness and not that noticable the fur isnt that intragated into the head, itsa kinda like a dogs head poaking out of a pile of something, have hte fur creaping up his face and thinning out. the fur looks like a lump of clay thats been kniffed and carved into shape, as oposed to soft hair. dont really know how you improve that, again, not sure :? the moon looks good, but maybe aa it a tiny bit, one colour in tactical places. looks good tho, and very nice, if slightly cliched, but done well. PJB21

tbh i dont see alot wrong with the trees, one thing i do suggest however is if you make more trees dont just have it fade to black, but have detail of other darer trees behind thoses youve done, it makes it feel more 3d and gives it depth. i dont know what it is about the persons feet, but they dont look right, i dunno why, may just be me o0 backto the trees, it looks like youve shown the bottom of some in the backer background, this ruins perspective unless you have flying trees o0 again with the tent make it more detailed inside its just kinda... brown o0 love the trail behind the butterfly, very prettyful and dont forget to do the fire. oh had a thought, you could have a go at doing animated fire, may look cool. the persons nose it rather pointy, raise the one part up a bit more, make the pointer taller, smooths it off =) the lizard thingysd nails are at weird angles at the back, group them together a bit more, his frount nails on its right is too spread out, dont be afraid to have them overlapping. maybe try adding another colour of shade to the humans legs, give it more depth, looks rather flat at the moment. i generaly have the base colour, 2 tones of shade, an outline colour and a colour of highlight. your doing a good job, but dont rush it =) PJB21

not sure i may be able to, however im rather busy. say the idea if i like it ill do it, if not i wont :-w PJB21

heya, i remember you, didnt talk a great deal however, remember me? off topic yeah, ah well...

thats atualy pretty good. you should have a go at real pixeling, theres alot of good tuts pout there and it seams you wont have a problem with linework. however i sugest you invest in a mouse, far easier and only like ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã3 for a cheap one :wink: PJB21

you may not find anything, this board has been whiped atleast twise in my duration. best bet is to pm him, and yes he has done pixels before. PJB21

work on whatever isnt done, thats true to all people

how come somes pixely and the reast is aa'd it looks really weird o0 sort that out please =) anatomy is off, some changes i would have made would be as follows: make the arms longer make the body longer make the head more head shaped make the sword hilt end thicker make the shoulder [bleep]es thicker and shorter make the sun rays comming from the center of the sun (still have the full sun, but the rays, if you follow on, will meet at the middle) make the sheild [bleep]es on the other side of the sheild give the sheild a hand grasp add a cloak : PJB21

well, what i posted has become more real than i first ment it to... PJB21

some very nice stuff there =) and i never made you make it, you did that entirly on your own accourd :wink: remember to keep us updated with more stuff =) PJB21

hmm, and for my next trick i shall produce a pixel out of a santa hat!

just do whatever isnt, if it looks unfinished, then finish it, if it is blank fill it in, just get it done!

1.) Is there anyone at all left in this forum that wants to do pixel work for free? :-s i ocasionly do requests and thwe such, but i mainly prefer to be only limited by me, as oposed to what someone else wants. with requests i only do them if i have the time, think its a good idea and think i will get gratitude and useage back in return, no point working on something you dont enjoy, in the same way of working on something and not getting anything back... 2.) If you answered Yes to the first question, then please answer this too. What motivates you to make a pixel work for free, even though there are other forums that you can go and sell your talent? i rarely play runescape and dont see alot of point doing stuff for game credits, id rather do something ill enjoy, of corse if theres both avalible ill go for that, also i dont like entering comps, theres not much security of you winning, and so it can feel pointless. also there can be alot of frustrating waiting to get the prices youd like for your work, and isnt really worth the effort to be frank 3.) If you are able to make other types of signature, like abstract, or vector, etc... Why don't you make some for people for free every now and then? i can do photomanips and 3d modeling, as well as the opasinal other types (poorly ill add) with photo manips again, i prefer to be free to do what i like as oposed to limited by someone elses requests and 3d modeling takes quite a while, and i just find its not worth it... 4.) Is there anyone in here interested in bringing back the Tip.it community Pixel signature collabs? If you guys remember, it was Aldurion's (I think) and we kinda just lost interest and everyone stopped working on it. yeah i am, was thinking about this recently and just starting a new topic about a pixel colab, but we curreently have the iso grid that needs to be finished by the end of the year or im dead :ohnoes: so yeah, next year im all for it : 5.) This is for everyone, and I hope I get some answers... How do you feel about the general atmosphere of the Gallery and the Art Bazaar? Hostile? Welcoming? Boring? So and so? please post anything you feel describes your perception of it. :| im fairly used to it being what it is and dont have alot of emotion regarding it, however i recon it could be fairly scary for new commers (as with most things) alot of people flame their work or they can get off to a wrong foot, which is offputting and bad, however that oftwen dont read the rules about first works and the such, which is one problem. i havnt really had any problems with flaming as of recent, however i remember when i was new (when dinosaures roamed the earth, and computers were meanly magic stones) i didnt get the warmest welcome, however im still here, but i have just left a few rtimes when its just got boring or whatever, however at the moment i look set to stay on for a while. the only things preventing me from visiting here is school work which i can see getting hecktic in the near future. 6.) Again this is for everyone. How do you feel about the quality of work being posted at the forum? some is decent, some is avarge and some is poor, it varies alot and thats good. it means people of all stages can feel invloved. theres only a few artists here who are really good at what they do, terly, mxm, cad to name a few, they give people a hope of what they can achive, then theres the avarage, whats more realistic and what people are at, this is good and it has the opurtinity for good CCing and the such, and of corse theres the poorer work, some is, to be blunt, crap, however its where alot of new commers will be at, really we need to be more posative to this grounp as oposed to just the ave group. just see it from their view, they are generaly younger people, more nervous, posably new to forums and the such, i was once, and it can be off putting having people flamming your work, they may have workwed hard at it, but because of varies limits of being young it isnt great, thats the perfect opurtunity to encourage someone and give them guiding pointers. dont expect anyone to be perfect and in that 'near perfect' group, judge them acourding to what group they fall under. PJB21

i agree about the nose, it looks rather weird, and also wrongly shaded imo. i can sort that out if i wish tho, which i dont i may add... i think i forgot about the nose outline when doing the head >_< as for detail, by that i asume you mean eyes, hairs and you know, the basics maybe? yeah well, no. its more like a scultpute, a fairly basic sculpture and thats all im copying, a sculpture. as you may have noticed many of my works dont have eyes, or some detail is missing, again its a sculpture. yes i am kinda BSing but its not all BS, it is intended like that, its kinda how i do it... usaly... sometimes, i guess PJB21

you mean it looks like earth maybe? does look very nice, loving that spell thingy \ some of the textures are great, but remember to be rid of all those black lines :wink: the guy whos flying, his feet look rather weird, bit too much like that in the cartoon style sigs, change them to more like the rangers feet, they look much better =) i cant really see anything wrong exeot its still a wip keep us posted with updates please :XD: PJB21

dude, super ted is soo cool! is this just a one off? or are you gonna do more? either way is cool PJB21

im sure that would make so much more sence if i had photoshop. however some of the parts are transferable. yours looks better than mine and im trying to see what you did different and why it looks better. i recon its the use of colour mainly. however the thinner boarders help as does the text with simple gausion blur. but theres several other differences which i think help. i may try having another go at it with some of the sugestions that you gave as guidence =) thanks PJB21

i was on your dev and the terragen stuff looks really good. it looks like you did your own texture for the ground, is that true? also is there anything tuts you have used? sorry but another question, do you have the free version or one of the pay for versions? PJB21

something. dithered the face but not the body, for contrast, also tried removing lines and AAing the edges... PJB21
