heres some pixel art (accidental cause i forgot to resize my picture)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I've noticed something pretty neat though; everyone in here has a very distinct doodling style. I know y'alls probably noticed that 20 years ago, but i didn't really think about it before now. Jopax doodles in a painty style (usually), i doodle with scratchy cartoony lines (usually), jetex seems to favour more realistic proportions and a pencil... It's quite fancy, really. It shows pretty darn well how diverse art can be, even within the same medium.

and i have no definitive style but its always weird (almost always)

Also don't ever forget to experiment every now and then, new styles, new approaches, get yourself out of your comfort zone. While it's scary as fuck it's great for inspiration and generally getting better.


Also I think I'm finally happy enough with this to post it here. Still largely unfinished tho, a special birthday present for a friend

I keep noticing that the gun looks kind of misshapen. :u

Yeah, the front half looks like it has been twisted a bit clockwise to the eyes of the viewer.

I'll continue making this more specific by saying that it looks rotated because it appears that the left hand edges on the front bit and the stock are aligned, while the front bit is a thinner rectangle.

[Jopax]

Yeah it is, I only lassoed the outer edges while the inside is just roughed out so I know the general forms. The issue is that the stock gets wider towards the end for some reason which makes it look weird. Thanks for the heads up ^^


@defeeca wierd is deffo a style, just look at Beksinski, that guy was weird incarnate (also large parts nightmare fuel) and he was amazing at it.

i think that gun is bit unpractical i mean if you tuck it in your armpit your aiming almost downwards everything else is pretty great on that pic
also its fun to draw weird stuff especially since i have no idea what im drawing until its finished.
for content heres bit more finished version on that previous art piece

[Jopax]

Also, should've mentioned this earlier but it's not an actual gun. More of a spraygun, that sprays paint. Since she's kind of a painter herself (and an amazing one at that) it's a bit of playing on my part with references and whatnot ^^

Let me tell you, listening to The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth's OST while drawing leads to...interesting drawings.

o shiet son

That looks like a mutant bunny spider isaac with deadly claws of anger. I LIKE IT!

dat fiery redhead booty

* Shook approves

also speaking of red and experimenting

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I am in a slightly peculiar mood right now. I did think clearly enough to try giving a vast sense of scale, though. :v

[ShadowHammer]

That red floating rocks thingy looks very vast, Shook. I like it; it seems lonely.

L-limbs? What sorcery is this?! They're some pretty good limbs, too.

[Tawa]

Shook, that bears a strange resemblance to my yard. Are you spying on me?

Bravo.

[Nirur Torir]

[Limbed-art]

Hey, that gives me an idea for what sort of thing to draw with my next fur style experimentation test.

Spoiler: Uh, I forgot to put pants on this thing. No pelvis or legs means pants aren't needed, I guess. (click to show/hide)

It worked a bit better in my quick mock-up sketch thing that used more than two colors. I guess it's decent-ish, and it does look fluffy, but I thing I prefer the soft and clean look blur gives.

I'm making a hexagonal tileset for a forum game I hope to run soon, and I just finished the first tile, the forest. As usual, advice on pixel-artistry/tileset-making would be great.

Native resolution:

Enlarged to show pixeling:

Tessellated on a hex-grid:


The tileset is taking inspiration from Tolkien's maps and GlyphGryph's Battle for Bay12.

[GiglameshDespair]

If you want advice specialised towards pixel art, the Lair of The Pixel Artist thread should help.

Asie from that, it looks nice. I certainly can't think of any improvements.

[hops]

The trees seem too dense for me.

And maybe it's just me but they look like giant broccolis with their green trunks. :u

The shading's noice though.

E: Just gonna put this here.
