My First Attempt at a "Pixel"

Recommended Posts

Okay, before you read any further, you must keep in mind that I have absolutely no previous knowledge of how to make graphics/artworks using a computer.

 

 

 

Anyway, last night I don't know what happened, but I felt the urge to create my own "sig". I opened up my Paint and drew up using the "pencil" then coloured (filled in) a picture of me ranging.

 

 

 

I know, it looks really bad, but hey, rate nonetheless, and any help/advice of what I could improve would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

 

Oh, and It's in my signature if you're wondering.

 

 

 

Thanks, and please keep flaming to a minimum.

Its fairly good for a first. I would use the line tool instead of the pencil tool to get better lines and a bit more shading and detail. :) If you want you can pm me and ask some questions and I will try my best to help :D

Thanks, I'll try to do another one using the line tool, the pencil tool really is too thick.

 

 

 

It looks enlarged.. Don't resize your pixels that way, it destroys it.

 

 

 

Yes, I enlarged it slightly because it was a little small at first. Thanks for the tip, I'll try and get it to the size I want beforehand next time.

:thumbsup: thanks

 

 

 

The atonomy looks pretty good, if you work on it and detail it more it would be a better pixel. all it needs is detail, youve got the basic standing allready :wink:

Yup, I was pretty happy with the atonomy too, although I think the legs need a little fixing. And yes, I also need to fix up the arms.

 

 

 

Thanks for comments!

Sorry.. but the anatomy is not ok, take a look at the human form and this is no where close to good anatomy, sorry if I upset you, but it is the truth.

^Thanks Weeboab for the awesome sig!

I know the 'How to Make Tiny Carrots' (or HTMTC, as it is known among the elite pixelart circles) is in high demand.
:lol:

yeah..lol i was kinda surprised at the "great anatomy" posts, his stance is not posible, as human legs cannot physically bend that way, his arm looks like a piece of rubber, no shading at all... it looks alot like a traced runescape character, but it was distorted in order to make it look less like one.

 

 

 

since you want a rating 1/10

Heh, always good to see some negative comments. However, no, I did not trace the character. I barely made it up in my mind. It is my first, so any rating other than 0 I consider an achievement.

imalber. i like you ::', its good to see someone new not freak out over coments that dont say "OMg its roxors" (some people change the thread title to "mods lock plz" and say "evr1 htes me"). with practice and by listining to coments (negative and positive) you can really improve. keep up the pixeling, ill be shure to give tips.

Could have been better. Not trying to sound harsh, but I think if you took this advice you could improve.

 

 

 

1. Stance is not possible, doesn't really have to be, but it woud look better ::' .

 

 

 

2. Enlarging TOTALLY ruins it, next time (like you stated) try and get the size before-hand.

 

 

 

3. Avoid thick lines. (unless it was the enlargings fault). It kinda messes up the picture.

 

 

 

4. Avoid black object, try to make them a dark shade of grey (meh, that's just me.

 

 

 

3/10, could improve. Nice for a first though.

The optimal.
