Base by Jishin, Hair/Panties Pallettes by Menewsha.

So, I'm totally brand new to the concept, and kind of used the actual avatar for shading help on the hair until I develop my own style.
What do you all think of my first attempt? :3

EDIT: I was fiddling around with the closed eyes that were part of the base set, and a trail of Easy Gif Animator, and here's what I came up with:

Constructive criticism instead of a synonym to "I like it" please? ^___^;;

EDITEDIT: Decided to make this into a fullblown thread that I intend to update and discuss my work with others in. xD
So, keep checking the title? <3

I think it's really good.
I love the hair, great job.

Drache-Lehre 05-19-2007 05:19 PM

Aww another fan of that base. Hehe you did a really good job. Honestly. I don't see nothing to say in attempt to make it better because it can't get better? xD First try it looks great, hard to believe is the first and the hair soo shinnyyy. *wants to touch* =3

crystalrev 05-19-2007 07:43 PM

wow amazing for a first! i love how you shaded her :P continue pixeling plz i want to see more from you XD *rub eyes twice to see that it's not a dream* :D

Laurr. 05-19-2007 11:45 PM

It's really good.
Also cute :D
You did a great job.
I wouldn't have been able to do any better.

Deidara 05-20-2007 01:08 AM

The hair is just gorgeous! It has the shine the shading, it's beautiful! And I love the little blush on her cheeks, it givers her that angelic look. The clothes could use some work, just so they look a little more clothey. Am I making sense? Well... I hope you know where I'm getting at.

Marina 05-20-2007 01:03 PM

Thanks for all of the feedback, everyone. :3
Maybe I'll make another one just for example purposes, then do an auction just to test my worth before going into the pricing assistance. xD

:o
Those are cool!
I wanna try.
D:

I'm new to this concept.
Explain?

Kasana 05-21-2007 06:03 AM

Im with [Teh Artist], I'm new to Pixelling so please explain lol. I really wanna get into it as I love drawing but I just dont have the programs, only photostudio, project dogwaffle and ms paint.

Marina 05-21-2007 12:55 PM

Umm. Well. I just kind of dove head first into pixelling after viewing several of the Menewshan artists. It's kind of like and not like drawing, in that you always need line art before you start any of the filling in. Then as far as the coloring goes, I figure, if you're using a base, follow what lighting it has and just color semi-normally.

The only real difference between pixelling and drawing on the computer is that you >always< need to be in magnification until you're looking at what you've done. >w<

noirette 05-22-2007 06:54 PM

How cute! <3 My only suggestion would be that maybe the hair be shaded a little more toward the bottom? But I maybe just be being nitpicky; overall, it's adorable, and I'm half-tempted to steal that animation OO: so nice!

A gift for Jitsumi purely because I liked her character so much. >w<
Who knows what I'll doll next, but I may do an auction once I do at least one more just to see my worth. ;D
Edit: Base and pallettes will almost always be creditable to the same sources as the doll on the first page, so, um, yeah. In case I ever forget to label the credit, since I'm retarded and almost did. xDD

Cyzzane 05-23-2007 06:50 AM


Ooooo that's adorable and I know that she'll love it.

Great job on the pixels! And this time around it defintely looks more pixeled than shaded. Great job!

GainaSpirit 05-23-2007 07:31 AM


Thats so lovely ^^ Those base are really cute and you made those hair wonderful ! You need to do more and maybe sell some ^^

Jitsumi1221 05-23-2007 05:26 PM

so cute *squee* thank you again Marina *hug*

Marina 05-23-2007 08:18 PM

^o^
Thank you all for the compliments. :3
&&Gaina--After I'm done with my next doll, I'm planning on maybe holding an auction just to figure out a general ballpark for who would pay how much for my work. >w<
Though, I'm sure I'd wind up having a reasonably priced shop eventually. xD

Drache-Lehre 05-23-2007 09:05 PM

Aww that is so cyoot. You did a great job and am loving how you shade the hair. ^-^ Keep up the good work! *shakes fists demanding to see more* XD

Base by Jishin, Pallette by Kazal.
A gift doll for DL for being such a sweetheart and encouraging my pixels and providing me with friendship.
It was quite the interesting experience pixelling this for her, since it was my first attempt at animal body parts, too. xD
I like how it turned out, and I hope that DL does, too. :3

Edit: Do any of you think I should do an auction just to test my worth as a pixel artist? Or just go straight for having a shop?

Drache-Lehre 05-25-2007 08:26 PM

*strolls on it to have a lookie and blinks in puzzlement at the title but then sees what its about* And and

AWWWW *squees and runs in circles* Its soo cyoooooot!! <33 You REALLY did do a good job and coming from me that means alot since I am so very, very picky on how she is doll'd. ^^ Yay. <3 I especially love how you did the hair and tail. =3 Omg so cyoot. *clings to it*

Thank you so much sweety, but you was taken in as a friend because you are a nice, fun girl to chat with, not in wanting to get stuff from ya. xP

However I'll repay the gesture when I can. With banks down, I can't do shit. >.< Now if you have an OC.. that might be a bit different as I could see about getting art for ya but uh no clue what you'd want art for. lol.

And about the shop thingie, you could always do both? Try auction first and see how others rate it and then do shop rather auction goes well or not but I think you have good chance at it. ^^
