unknownmasterofnothing Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 just choose a light source, like top right corner. The outline is good. Could be a castle in the behind. Or something easier 4 u. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Not bad, especially for a first try. One technique you could try is dithering, it's extremely useful in pixel art, and it can give you many more options even when using only a limited amount of colors. Dithering is alternating colors each pixel...sort of like a checkerboard. It's difficult to explain in a post, but I'm sure there are some tutorials on it if you Google for it. Now for the crits. The line-art is nice and clean, so good job on that. As for your shading, try to make it contrast a bit more - right now I can barely tell that you shaded it. Try giving it a light source...one side of her should be slightly darker than the other side...but don't make it too abrupt; use dithering if you have to. Also, shade a bit under the breasts and the arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleepy Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Apologies for posting again, but I don't think anyone would notice if I edited my previous post. Here's something I made about a month ago. If you copy it into MS-Paint and then zoom in to 800%, you'll be able to see the dithering I used. It's a small picture, so I didn't use that much, but it's there. My other advice that I forgot to mention is that you should make it a transparent GIF image. (You won't see the white background; the background will be the forum background.) Transparent backgrounds tend to work well with pixel art, from my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unknownmasterofnothing Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 The 2nd person looks weird. The chest should go inwards like ur 1st person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepy Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 You're improving - however, try rather than making the skirt's shading go from outside in, pick a side and make it darker than the rest...and do the same thing with the rest of her (on that same side). As for transparency, I use ULEAD Gif Animator. I forget which version it is, I think it's Lite Edition. Anyway, in my version, the features are limited but the trial never runs out. To make it transparent, insert the image into the GIF animator (crop it first), and then set the transparent index to white (since that's the background color, which the animator will make transparent). Even though what you're making isn't actually an animation, ULEAD works pretty well for transparencies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
