This is what I got so far, Yes it sucks lol:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So what do you need help with :P Ideas or something else :) Not much to correct at the moment :)

I'm just looking for some pointers like.. Myabe you could do something else on it? I am putting a dds and something else on it, also i'm shading it, you could do the same and we'll compare at the end? I just need tips tbh hehe

I quickly did this. If you zoom in on the red, you can see that I dithered (how I dither) at the edge of each colour to blend the colours :P You can practise on the Purple if you want. Sorry it's rushed but it's 1am :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, G'nite

 

 

 

:)

Omg that is so awesome! lol. well better than mine :( hehe

Just logged back, and I made this, the book is abbsolutly rubbish!:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I did it for my mate, who was pleased.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If he was pleased then that's good. You might just want to look at a thick book and see that instead of a square/rectangle, you can use the line tool to make it look more like a block, then you can further it out to make it look like pages and a book cover, hope I could help :)

Yes it did, i'm working on my new pixel avvy now.

Cool, Good Luck with it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Update on the Muscle Guy :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi,, I have a problem. I think at least one pixeler out there has experienced it and I was wondering if someone could help me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well, I don't feel as inspired to pixel as I was before. I look at work and think how many could never compare, which I know if I work hard on it, it very well could. And as I start a pixel I tend to not finish it. There isn't a lack of motivation. Looking around the backyard gives me plenty of ideas.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think at the moment it's just my mind putting up road blocks so that I think I can't pixel well.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If anyone could help I would appreciate it :)

Hi all, I have the lines for a new idea for a signature and I need your opinions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the idea is that the guy in the middle is sitting at the end of a bridge :?: or on a chair :?: In the forest or something. Then on the bg I'll have some tree's and perhaps some mist at the bottom and around the bridge will be water which I hope to animate :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's my battle of the pixelers entry (Round 2)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Peace Out

Update to latest Pixel. I need help with the face because at the moment it doesn't look so good :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nice mate, I like it :)

I go through this period lots, I will just sit at a desk and draw anythig that pops into my mind, this is inspiration for many of my pixels. Also if you feel you cannot finish a piece, ask for cc and then use that cc. This makes me want to finish a piece of work because I know owea should be happy with it.Keep pixeling!

Thanks, but whenever I post work no one replies :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, I am working on putting fog or a low cloud at the bottom of the tree's what would be a good way to pixel this.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1) Should I shade normally and have darker spots for the tree trunks, etc.

 

 

 

2) Should I shade normally and have lighter spots for the tree trunks, etc.

 

 

 

3) Should i Pixel the ground normally then go over it leaving 1 pixel of normal ground then one pixel of fog.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

or any other suggestions. Replies are encouraged and appreciated :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edit: I can get away with not making a new post :P But there is progress.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just put the basic colours and I still dunno what to do with the fog :o

you should only pixel if you truly enjoy doing it. i think that if you truly think of any good ideas, then you should stop for a week or two, and then come back with some new insperation.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

as for not finishing pixels- thats normal, dont wory about it. ive got a folder of unfinished pixels that takes up nearly a gig.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the best way to put clouds around your trees is to:

 

 

 

-pixel the tree

 

 

 

-keep your palette off to the side

 

 

 

-make a new palette of grays that fade into browns and black (your bg)

 

 

 

-shade in the thickest part of the fog a solid gray, and use the brownish gray tones to fade into the trees, and the blackish ones to fade into the sky.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

also, your dock is a bit to wide, i think it needs to be thinner, and not have as big of a slope.

Thanks, I'll be trying that for the fog and I'll work on changing the bridge.

 

 

 

Thanks :P

You make cool frizzy hair, i like it!

 

 

 

It's a shame however that it's so difficult to see the hair on the robed figure.

Hooray for finished Art :P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

First finished piece in a long time. I ditched the signature because I'll get back into pixelling by starting with a small canvas :P

I love it, how the bird looks to the left.. amazing, shadiong I like it,

=D> I love it good job.

I LOVE the battle of the pixelers entry. :thumbsup:

Bump, I'll be posting my new battle of the pixelers entry when the judgings sorted :P After the pixelers tournament I'm free to make a lot of avatars :)
