Estonian dude Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 So to breathe new life into this subforum, I am gonna start posting here my progress with my pixel avatars, along with the time it has taken me for every step. I have done just 2 pixels before so I am really slow, which warrants a separate thread for progress. also I get 10 push-ups with each post Anyways, current progress:Pixel 7: For myself Final version:Time taken? Boatloads. Pixel 6: For nice OTer Hugger_88 Final version: Pixel 5: For Hawks. Final version, at least for the time being:I know it is empty, but didn't know how to fit anything there... Anyone, that could have a go, please do it, would appreciate some designs. Final outlines and basic colouring: Outlines (really rough ones) Pixel 4: For Tansuo, revenge on Draggle. Final: V2: Outline and basic colouring: Pixel 3: For Tsar, my mate! Final version: Outline and basic colouring:Time taken: 1,5 hours so far. Pixel 2: For Draggle, whereever he is. Final: V2: Outlines and Tansy flower rough sketch:Time taken? Boatloads, can't even count hours. 1st Pixel, decided to do for fun.Final:Now 4,5 hours total with that. V2:Now 3 hours total with that. Lineart and basic shapeTime taken? About 2 hours. I am really slow ;) Older ones:Both made 2 years ago. V1 of my car pixel, stayed my avatar for 2 years. V2 of my car pixel, made after criticism. Didn't like how it turned out, so still used the first one. Avatar I made after a request for the same guy who got the Nomad avatar. I love it, 'cept the DFS... So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends. RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.I strike out every other week.Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.Randox pretty much stays rational.Etc, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyChee Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I'll keep an eye on how you progress, how long do you think it will take? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estonian dude Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 I have no freaking idea. Now that I've done the outline, it should come a lot faster. I picked a bad motif to do a pixel on, water and sand are nightmares ;) I should keep to inside rooms with a certain source of light, cause that worked great for me. Anyways, V2 Took me an extra hour or so, so total should be 3 hours. And that's another 10 push-ups for me aswell, why thank you. ;) So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.

Bad911 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 It's so pretty. Can we give suggestions for some of your pieces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estonian dude Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 Well, it aint half done yet, but please, do. And another 10 push-ups. Yay!

99wolf9 Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Another 10 push ups :lol: btw thats some amazing stuff you got there. Do you think could make me one if you have time? :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estonian dude Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 Nope, I don't have the time to do for requests... We have numerous great guides here online on The GalleryAnyways, the push-ups only come with my own posts, so yeah.Final Version now, unless anyone has any suggestions to add. Adds another 1,5 hours, which I multitasked, mining at LRC simultaneously ;)Total time spent on it should be 4,5 hours now, and I am really happy with the result. Was a real pain in the arse to do, specially that water and sand. C/C? Ideas for new one? So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.

Although, personally I like your first avatar pixel picture better, it resounded better with me. As for suggestions, maybe put some coconuts on the palm trees (do they grow coconuts?). It'll offset the green? I really love your skies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estonian dude Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 Well, the coconuts wouldn't work, 'cause if you would check a picture of a real coconut tree, you would notice the coconuts only grow in the middle of the leaves on the trunk. So it wouldn't help at all. And that sky is really easy to do, just dithering ;)I noticed that I should have put my name on the sand, rather than on the sea, would pop out a lot more. But still, ideas for a new avatar? So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.

Estonian dude Posted January 7, 2012 Author Share Posted January 7, 2012 Sorry for double post, but decided to create a second pixel aswell for my mate Draggle. Motif was a burning Tansy flower on a rainbow background. So here are the outlines and rough draft so far: That red is all gonna be a rainbow one day. ;) So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.

Estonian dude Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Again, sorry for the double post, but it is the only way to bump. Anyways, it is 5:43 am an I finished that avatar! \:D/ Took like 4,5 hours again. The colours on the sky turned out awful, but I couldn't find anything better either...First time tried depicting a human, turned out even ok, methinks. C/C? Comments? Ideas for a new one?

Dragoon5464 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 I really like the palm tree one. Darn good work for the method you're using. Keep it up! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estonian dude Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Cause of popular demand, I post here my 2 older pixels aswell... Made for a friend after a request 2 years ago. Turned out quite well, 'cept that DFS. That friend is the same that got the Nomad ;-) My first ever pixel and a favourite of many on the HYTchat. The V2 after C/C of the first pixel, though I liked the V1 better. So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends.
