teenageloser33 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 They're PIXEL, you do them, one dot at a time. That's what makes them so different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venomai Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Sprite/pixel art is nice because: 1. The drawings are made entirely pixel by pixel (ie: 1px pencil tool. no brushing, no opacities, etc.) 2. They originated as sprite art for 8-bit games, so they have a "classic", or "oldschool" feel. 3. They don't require any expensive equipment. Here's DeviantArt's description of Pixel Art Pixel Art: A form a digital art created entirely from a pixel by pixel basis from the ground up using the most simplest of tools (most commonly the pencil tool and the like). Every pixel is placed in a specific place with a purpose of enhancing the image and to complete the artist̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s original intent. Works submitted here should have absolutely no digitally enhanced features such as: blurring, anti-aliasing, dodging, burning, rendering, etc. (Again, works here are formed pixel by pixel being lovingly placed where they are meant to be placed!) So even if your work has even a small bit of something that was not done in a pixel by pixel fashion then it does not belong in the pixel art galleries.

DiLord Posted February 6, 2006 Author Share Posted February 6, 2006 So, alot of these awsome looking sigs are made this way? That's incredibly insane because they are so detailed. So alot of the nice looking sigs that contain drawn RuneScape characters are pixel drawings? choosing color my color... I know I wouldn't have the time, patience, and energy to do something like that. Proprs to all you people who do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have the basic linework, you can use the bucket to color it in. Shading doesn't take that long either, unless your doing it the higher quality way... Anyways... Heres some examples of pixel work. Pureleader18- terley- NuZza- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
