lemonfish Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Well first time i tryed it my internet crashed since it's so big. You need to reduce the size of the image, use a 1 pixel thick brush, shade it and add some texture and detail. Lots to work on but a good first try.

Sy_Accursed Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 you have drawn lines in about 30 seconds, used fill can on them That is not a pixel image you have to get a brush or pencil tool down to be the size of 1 pixel aka turn size down to 1 then you draw lines and shade the entire image a pixel at a time. that is what a pixel image is. the end result after what is normally atleast 2 days for any good pixeller is like that shown in my sig your picture has no type and no skill invovled really If you want to post here it needs to be pixel, rendered, brushed atleast use a known type o9f image making rather than fill can an image so tht it juts looks like a bad pixel Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweeoi Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Paw Claw, he never said it was a pixel image, he just said it was his first paint pic. Anyway, it is pretty simple. Even if you weren't doing the whole pixel style, try doing some shading on it. Might make it better. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck I know tht but a)Pixel is kind of the given style to do it ur using paint as its only way u can really make anything tht gd b)It is sort of a badly dun pixel and most importantly c)I thought I had editted out all the stuff tht said it was a pixel, but keeping to my point after I realised i had mis read title Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despaxes Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 ok lets all be jerks because someone tried something new! its ok for a first, as said, you need to shade, if you need hep looks up pixel tutorials and such, in paint use the PENCIL tool, no the thick brushes, hope i helped MERRYCHRISTMAS thanks everyone for the sigs!

MD666 Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Pixel is kind of the given style to do it ur using paint as its only way u can really make anything tht gd I beg to differ. My freind does some amazing graphiti style pictures on paint, and they certainly aren't pixels. Try and put a bit more time into it and maybe you will be able to make it alot better, don't forget that when you look at something it isn't just a solid block of colour, it has textures and shades.

Sir_Alex85 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Oh c'mon guys. He's trying something new, why not help 'em out a little? He never said it was a pixel (though, it's made of pixels, so it is still a pixel image, technically), so don't go yelling at him. ;P You have a decent concept, and the drawing itself isn't bad... You just need to make it smaller, IE, use the Pencil tool in paint. The Pencil tool is the one pixel tool everyone is talking about. Afterwards, I suggest checking out some of the tutorials on shading and the like in the sticky located in this forum. Good luck for the future. ;P It really has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

venomai Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 Woot that's leet. Nice composition and fresh choice of colours! But it goes downhill from there. :( For now I suggest you practice with pencil & paper on simple things (e.g. fruits or still life). Get into shading and details later, just make sure you get the lines right first. Practice with line only sketches and once you get used to that move onto shading and details. At the very least, master your line sketches before you go back to pixeling. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemonfish Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 It normally helps being able to draw. You get used to proportions if you draw first. Use guys use 1 px pencil. I always use the brush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
