Liztress' Pixel Workstation- Always Looking for Advice!
I love the idea of having a thread to keep all my pixel attempts in one spot. Hopefully, this will also motivate me to put more effort into trying different items for both the female and male bases.
Critiques are always welcomed. And no, I won't think you're being mean if you think something needs a bit of tweaking to it. I mean, how else would I know what to improve? I want to note that for the current work post, I will only use the [img] tags for my latest stage on each item. All other stages will be posted as links. |
Finished Items
Female Base None Male Base None |
Item Ideas
Long dress Vest for both male and female Pants |

Hey, Xuvrette. :)
|
hiya. how is the pixeling?
|
When I get to doing it, it's good. I need to make a point to sit down and at least get more done to the shirt. And start shading the dress.
|
What program do you use Liz? :) Great work so far, can't wait to see more.
|
Have you search for pixeling tutorials?
|
I use Gimp. And thanks. I'd love to get as good as the others.
I've looked at the Kawaii Hannah one. I need to find one to help with the wrinkles. |
I have Gimp! I was searching whether you can use it for pixelling before.. but I'm not completely sure how. It works though? That's good.
|
Yeah, I think it does a good job for pixeling. I think it works almost like PhotoShop but with a different interface. You could probably use the paint program for pixeling as well. But I'm so used to loading Gimp up for anything image related.
|
To be honest, I us MS Paint. I think most programs are pretty good for pixelling :D
|
I would try out using MS Paint, but I now have a Mac. And I already downloaded GIMP since it's good for image editing. Does anyone have any good links to starting out in pixelling or the basics?
|
@Luna - that makes sense! Then gimp is a good program for you!
KawaiiHannah's tutorials are the best I think...here is a link to her beginning pixel art tutoial: KawaiiHannah: Pixel Art, Pixel Doll Bases, Pixel Art Tutorials |
KawaiiHannah's got some good tutorials. *nods*
And I'm trying to fix the wrinkles. Does this look better? http://i953.photobucket.com/albums/a...opwiptake3.png |
@Liz - I think they look too....parallel. I like their position a bit better before. Hmm - have you tried doing the wrinkles as a shaded color rather than a highlight over there? I think on that side it would be darker and then add a small one on the other side in a highlight?
|
Thanks!
I'm having a little play on Gimp. I really want to learn, because I love all the ideas and art people are making! Liz: I agree with Maria, maybe it should be darker, it looks great! How many shades does one piece of clothing/colour usually have? |
To study on the 'wrinkles' on the dress, maybe you should take a look on how real life clothes folds.
|
@Luna - mene uses 5 or 6 shade palettes. I usually use 6 shades - it allows a little more depth in my mind :D
|
Hiya Liz!
I'm just posting right now to bookmark this so I can keep up on it. |
