Pixels, so sweet and tasty Pixels!
 
Hiii!

I'm new here! But I love pixel art!
So, I made this dress:

http://upz.fr/4NPE1.png

I'll be very happy to get responses, advices, questions...

-I use my own palette
-I use Photoshop
-I use a bamboo tablet
-I practice pixel for about 2 years.

I'm fond of beautiful long dresses... But I also love fashionable and casual dresses.
Feel free to ask me something special!

I'll soon make more colors of this first dress :)

Ooh That dress looks gorgeous! I'm really liking those folds. :D

I know who else may like them! Maria-Minamino:
I'm not very helpful with female items as I'm more geared towards dressing up male avatars. [lol]

If you're wondering about Menewsha's available colour palettes, here's a thread that may be able to help you if you've not already seen it. I'm looking forward to seeing more from you! [boogie]

Ombreuse 02-28-2014 02:10 PM

Thanks!
I'm going to read the thread right now!

We need to use special palette you mean?
In fact its seems logical, to keep cohesion...

Well, I need to read this!

Iro 02-28-2014 02:20 PM

You're free to use your own palette, of course. New palettes can be created if the items work best in them. [:D] (Don't tell jelly I told you this, though. She'd come after my hide.) However, you're right in that it'd be easier for uniformity and cohesion if the existing palettes are used. There are a few more in the stores not listed in the thread I believe, as they're newer ones.

Also, just in case, the light source for the Mene avatars come from roughly the avatar's top right.

I hope the thread is informative!

Ombreuse 02-28-2014 02:34 PM

Pretty palette indeed, and hopefully my light ALWAYS come from uper right corner! Fiouf!
Don't worry I won't say anything and I'll gently use Maria's colors :D

Si I used Maria's Palette for these one.

My own pale gold, My own pale pink, Easter, Lavender, Red (wow!) Saphire and Emerald!

I really like the red one!

Ikuto Akihiko Hasegawa 02-28-2014 02:41 PM

-stalks- [ninja]
Those are looking great! The lighting is coming from our right, rather than the avatar's right though.
To remember it more easily, think of the light as coming from the direction the avatar is facing. [yes]

Ombreuse 02-28-2014 02:46 PM

Ho crap.
é_è
Yeah it's seems legit haha. I'll remember, thanks!

I think I'll use the other side base, It will be easier!

zigbigadorlube 02-28-2014 03:38 PM

Wow, I love it! The Easter one if my favorite. I really like the hairstyle as well. The messy bun is uber cute and quite different from the other hairstyles we currently have on the site.

Ombreuse 02-28-2014 04:13 PM

Thanks :3
The easter one is cool but maybe TOO pink!
And you'll rarely see me write that XD

A red one. Lights ok ^___^

http://upz.fr/T3E2s.png

I don't know how i'll turn it, maybe I'll add a few ribbon and an umbrella...

zigbigadorlube 02-28-2014 04:26 PM

Oops! I read the order of the colors wrong. I meant to say your original pink, the light one!

I like the texture on that red dress, very elegant! I wonder if the bottom is too straight cut though? It looks like the draped fabric is oddly cut off at in the middle...

Ombreuse 02-28-2014 04:40 PM

Yeah, you're right!
I fixed this, and try some other color. Candy floss Yay!

http://upz.fr/3VAGc.png
Red, candy, healing, winter, midnight.

Its better with a lot of contrast I think.... Midnight shine!

Mnemosyne 02-28-2014 06:05 PM

Oh my! These are adorable. Ive always wanted to learn pixeling but I need to fix up a tablet first! Keep up the great work. Id love to see more!

Ombreuse 02-28-2014 06:32 PM

Ho thanks :3

You can easily practice pixel art with a mouse you know.
Maybe not on a 3000px document but on menewsha base it would be okay!

Pixel art, like vector isn't real drawing (tomatoes in 3, 2, 1....)
No seriously, you control every little thing in pixel/vector, your hand movements doesn't matter, and most of the people even feel more confortable with a mouse.

Or maybe I didn't understand anything and you are on a tablet = I pad? :3

Mnemosyne 02-28-2014 06:35 PM

No you understood! I was talking about a drawing tablet. I really should. I just have no idea where to start. To google!

Ombreuse 02-28-2014 06:49 PM

Yes you shouuuuld!
If you have no idea, you can always try to reproduce real life clothes, the one you dream about!
Or maybe some food :D Or some animals stuff like ears?


Well I'm going to finish the red dress and then do a Kimono!

Steampunk mood today. I need to go out so I'll finish later. Need more gold!

Dystopia 03-01-2014 11:21 AM

Holy fuck. That's a beautiful ball gown.

I think I liked them better without the ribbon tho.

Ombreuse 03-02-2014 12:10 AM

They are quite differents :)
I really like the midnight, red and pink one with ribbon but it's true, the other one don't really need it!

Dystopia 03-02-2014 06:40 AM

How are things going with the steampunk dress? It looked super cool in the preview.

Ombreuse 03-02-2014 09:32 AM

Hey!
Yesterday I was went "for few hours" at my school open doors... It turn that I left for 12 hours, staying all day, helping cleaning and went to the bar with my friends AND teachers.

Soo no news XD

Today I'll doodle your phenix, draw for some contest and for school so I guess the steampunk dress will wait ^^
