Hello.☺
Welcome students.

pixel art. I will be posting a few base sites, tutorials
and tips. So always be updated. smile


Rules.☺
1.This is a tutoring center, subjects nonrelated to the subject being done is not encouraged here.
2.Please do not say/post any words that are offending.

Tutoring sessions.☺
Just post here when you're free
and in need of help in pixel art or animating. Once I'm online
I will reply ASAP about what you need help with.


Gone for a few days?.☺
We all have errands, homework and
trips. If you will not be able to come its ok. Just say when you'll
probably not attend ahead of time. Although I suggest you
stopping by about 1-3 times a week. You are not pressured
to come everyday
but if you do show up and post something
you need help with everyday then its fine with me.

announcements on sessions and etc.

Dear students,
I would like to see how well you've been doing lately
so I'm now requiring you to make and submit a pixel
doll of anybody or even a group. Please submit it
within the week
or I'll just have to PM you instead if
you don't. Remember, this is so I may see what you're
improving in or maybe not
, what you still need help with
and more so please try your best and I'll be posting
a tutorial made by me very soon.

Introduction To Pixel Art.☺
Pixel art is a form of digital art,
created through the use of raster graphics software
,
where images are edited on the pixel level. Graphics in most old
(or relatively limited) computer and video games,
graphing calculator games, and many mobile phone games
are mostly pixel art.


The basics.☺
First of all, you need to learn how to use
MS paint. In making pixel art the following tools are usually used in
MS paint:

1. Eraser tool - this allows you to erase a desired area or pixels
2. Pick color tool - this allows you to get the desired color and use
it for usage of another tool to be used
3. Pencil tool - other than the line and curve tool, this is handy for
drawing things
4. Line tool - this helps you make lines, diagonal, horizontal and
vertical lines.
5. Fill color tool - use this to color a certain area
6. Magnifier - this makes it easier to make pixel art because
zoomed out its hard to shade and draw what you wan.
7. Curve tool - helps you to make curved lines for hair, clothes, etc.


Whats Iso and non-Iso?.☺
Iso and non-Iso is
Isometric and non-Isometric you'd prabably get confused by them
in sites like deviantart so here is a little thing so you may
understand it further.

Isometric
-is a form of graphical projection—more specifically, an axonometric projection. It is a method of visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions

Non-Isometric
-opposite of Isometric XD

Hello there Emina!
I am ready for some lessons.
Oh yeah I forgot to tell you that I used a base from Kawaii Hannah.
The trubles I am having are the following.
1. Adding Lights and Shadows.
2. Creating Clothes and Items.
3. Creating my own bases. (which I don't really want to do)
4. Line art with pixels.

I will update a new example of a very basic doll I made soon.

Well when it comes to hair you may use photoshop or gimp.

Just put 3 colors,one shade color,light and medium then use the smudge tool
