those boots look comfy :P

The Enrichment Center reminds you that the weighted companion cube will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, cannot speak.

 

In the event that the weighted companion cube does speak, the Enrichment Center urges you to disregard its advice.

V nice guide, if you need anyone to do some work with you for it i'll help.. Only thing you should mention is like >> "This is my style, develop your own instead of copying mine completely!".. I hate seeing pixels that look the same from 2 different artists..

Lowgravity, I want to be just like you. But...I never will be as 1337 as you. :(

I agree. I mentioned in the first post I believe that it was my style and I would be showing how to do it my way, but I encourage to try your own thing and not copy me completely. I'm just looking to help other people, but not by telling them how to copy me.

Uh oh! I forgot to include platebodies. I'll work on that also today. Sorry everyone. :)

  • Author

Updating it now. I have finished :

 

 

 

- Gloves

 

 

 

- Platebodies

 

 

 

- Source of light

 

 

 

- Three/four colored shading

 

 

 

- Choosing colors

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, Rawz0rz, you must have missed the bottom of that part of the tutorial. Try using the air brush with your new signature to make it appear more realistic. If that doesn't work, you can always make little dots with the pencil tool. Still needs some work, but a valid attempt. :)

Yeah Really nice tut.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'll probably look back on it for my next pixel.

Only 27.. RIP Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and Janice Joplin.

If you can, do you mind elaborating on the 'airbrush' shading? I don't really get it :P

 

 

 

Oh and.. any idea how to make a picture 'transparent' background as in any white colors of the picture blends into the background of the page? *without using PSP or adobe or whatever, just MSP*

Woah, I never knew Tip.It had that sig. I'll keep it since it's cool (and to make people wonder what was in my sig).

014. Source of light?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

this part of the tutorial i like..

 

 

 

sorry im just under the slight impression that you are majoritally (sp) explaining your style... ive already seen people copy stuff directly from the tutorial.. things that should be influenced by the peoples own style.. (this is those peoples fault not yours)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i say as a request not for me tho but for the moste here.. are the basics..

 

 

 

your missing some basics essential to pixeling.

 

 

 

people have to know HOW to pixel,how to make a drawing how a platebody looks like isnt the moste important thing..

 

 

 

basic shapes and drawing is.

 

 

 

talking about platebody the one in the tut has disproportionate arms :wink:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(sorry if you see me as offense here just trying to c/c on your tutorial.

I believe you have sheer jealousy, explaination of a style is better then telling everyone how to do it. See she explained her style you say? Then that is much different then telling everyone how to do her style.
