I always try to improve even if I can't be perfect, as I can at least try to be better than I currently am! [:)] I mean when I first attempted pixeling, I pixeled a horrid pink dress lol I restarted pixeling after/during the ship wreck event and my stuff looks a ton better...without even practicing between the pink dress and the new stuff! And I'm sure as I practice and get suggestions I'll improve even more! As long as people enjoy my designs I'm happy. And I follow my own pace no matter what [cool] I'm not like anyone else and I'm cool with that! [;)] And yes halloween is a fall thing (in the states anyway), its actually only 43 days away provided I counted right. My motivation for everything I do: "You try you fail. You try you fail. But the only true failure is when you stop trying" I heard that in a movie and its stuck with me ever since, it shows that failed attempts can't stop you, but not bothering to keep trying - will! and I don't know how to do seams, I'll have to study/practice how to do those [oops] ---------- Post added 09-17-2013 at 10:31 PM ---------- Quote:

seams... are just dotted lines... not so difficult.
I didn't see a lot of cobwebs in my life, whatever cobwebs I see are on pictures and TV. I am sure there are weird exception everywhere, nature is amazing to the point that they categorize tiger as cat. -__-;; The only few that I see, is pointed. triangular at the corner of the ceiling. No one can be perfect, though, high expectation is better than LOW easier reach goal. |

Here is some cobweb practice I've done (to try out other styles for the pants) http://i634.photobucket.com/albums/u...pseb69b6ac.png They are kind hard to see because of the light background but spider webs are kind of obscure anyway right? lol |
Why is it... so blurry? @. @ *dizzy*
I don't call easier to reach goal as goal, they are just milestone to me. Like getting to the final goal, I divided the art into few stages. Every completion of one stage is a milestone, time for a break. I am a lazy person, so I prefer to NOT do a lot of things, get it right the first time. |
I don't know why its blurry. O.o When it comes to art I'm usually a one hit wonder, which means I do it well once and that's it lol Whenever I try to duplicate artwork by hand it looks nothing like the original lol - I don't seem to do that with pixeling though which is good.
I'll practice more with webs and show em off, the blurriness might be, because I accidentally saved it in jpeg, than realizing that opened it in paint again and than saved to png..the quality might have degraded from the original save.[sweat] |
JPEG mess up the simplest square!!!
It is a destroyer of pixel art! |
I know right! I never really noticed the diff between jpeg and png until I started pixeling, now its really obvious! Now I png unless I accidentally jpeg lol [;)]
Here hopefully this is better web practice http://i634.photobucket.com/albums/u...psb47b0502.png I "was" going to leave the person naked and just do the webs in the corner but than I was like "why not?" lol so she ended up with a web inspired outfit of sorts! |
It looks so much clearer and tidier and nicer.
Did you ever observe how the 米shape of the web spread? The web in that shape is connected to surface or support. Currently, that corner web look a bit... kind of... not right. As for the clothes... Is the pant one same piece? I like the irregularity of the web. In comparison, the cobweb is a bit too tidy... |
Its kind of like pants with webish top xD I know strange idea lol hm well the corner webs are connect to the imaginary "corner" O.o So they should be fictionally supported. I like tidy lol So my cobwebs are too "neat"? They need to look...messier? O.o
|
I think they are too neat, for one thing.
I don't think the cobweb would look so quarter round wish in the corner. It is about how it hangs from the ceiling with only two perpendicular sides. Cobweb among the tree is different, because the spider can have support from all angles. But ceiling or corner of ceiling the most you have is 3 sides. So in perspective of the avatar angle, the cobweb won't drop like that. It would be askew... Kind of like a round lamp, do not look round in eyeview. |
Well here's a slightly reworked set:
http://i634.photobucket.com/albums/u...pscada104f.png I changed the webbing on the pants most notably. |
By the way, there is this 3 slanted lines... what are they?
I think this version looks much more convincing. |
Random decoration pretty much xD faked rhinestones maybe I don't know lol Fabric stripes *shrugs* it just seemed cool lol
|
I am not sure about those stripes...
Fabric stripes? How is it attached? Is it print on? sewn on? |
Um, sewn on maybe? o.o
|
I think they have to curve a bit to match the curve surface of the lower leg.

I see you've been working on the spider and spider webbing on the pants. I would personally first work on the shading of the pants. Take off the webs and spider for now and shade the thing first. Then add back the spider and the webs after that is done. The idea of the pants is very cute! People would definitely be interesting in spider web pants. But notice how the menewsha palettes all use 5-6 shades. So I would first concentrate on the pants first and look at menewsha pants that have already been made for reference on shading. Then add the spider and webs back on :) Keep up the good work! |

I tried to use 5-6 shades in it xD yes..I'm that bad It probably should be noted, I use paint to pixel (I have gimp but I don't like it xD least not for this anyway) |

Paint lovers unite! (not to be confused with people who like wall paint! xD ) Paint ftw!
And I'm still trying to work on that shading, but my first attempt was bad, with capital b lol |
