So, I have been itching to get back into pixel art
for quite some time now. I just do not like my current skills in the field such as my shading technique I am most familiar with. Which is why I am making a thread here.

I would like to learn how menewsha pixels in order to make items for menewsha.
I have always wanted to be an artist on some sort of avatar site.
That is actually why I even started pixel art 5 or 6 years ago.

Not to mention, I always have so many great ideas that I just never know where to start. Like I said before, I do not like my current skills I have so in a way,
I would like to start over or start fresh.

But I am unaware with where to begin. So tips would be greatly appreciated.
I don't really know menewsha's light source nor the palette.
As well as I am still only able to make things of a color palette of 3 colors u.u

For those curious about my old art style this is what it looks like.
Xxx

If anyone has the time to help me out, I would love it.
I am not totally lost with pixel art, I am also a digital artist
but more digital drawing.

Don't do what I did and start with a pigeon. XD go with something easier that you can find references for, to see how that was shaded/shaped/etc.

I don't do animals
so I wont do that.

I'll probably browse my pinterest for ideas.

Do your favourite thing that is easy enough to not discourage you when seeing the first attempt result. DX

I only ever did pixel dolls
but right now I do not have a favourite thing to pixel.

I have an idea!
What does menewsha not have/need more of?
Maybe I can pixel that. O:

Ah well.
I'll just make random stuff then. XD

I could use some platform boots and such.
And hair extensions, piercings but their hair shading on here looks really difficult ;3;

Thanks. Not sure if I will post anything or not since menewsha's shading is quite hard and I might
end up doing or trying pixel work for a less hard site so I might end up closing this thread.

Still deciding however.

I don't really know how to use
a six color palette. Only a 3 color palette.
So really All I am good at is line work.
And since menewsha is very popular and has a ton of item, I am not sure what to make D:
I would love to make extensions of hair but i suck at shading hair now. x.x

I know.
but i am sure you will be an artist on here in no time.
For me it isn't just the shading.

I wouldn't know what to make.
And I am uncertain if people are allowed to be artists on more than one site.
And menewsha already has a bunch of items so I am at a lost what to make.

I am thinking about leaving yes.

Ahaha, but it's not really a goal for me to become apart of the staff. ^ n^;; I dont really want to...

You can certainly ask for requests! 8D There are tons of users on here who would love to see some different items!
I kind of just make items I wished we had for some of my dream avatars so they'd be complete. XDDD But mene doesnt have...

Aw, that's a shame! ;v; Too busy or just lost of interest? I've also pondered of leaving too but that would be like the 2423552th time I've left lol

I have ideas but not the motivation DX I wanted to be an artist on a site for so long but eh.

Whenever i ask, people want the stuff i can't do D:

I am normally going on and off hiatus.
my depression has been causing me problems and I just do not communicate
well with people here compared to a smaller community which i communicate better with. I guess it just depends on how I feel if I do decide to or not.

Fff yes, things you can draw, but not necessarily perfect haha. Me whenever I try to draw animals...OTL

Ooh, I've seen you around so I didnt know that. 8) Aw, sorry to hear that. -hugs-
Really? I think Mene is a pretty small place. Yeah, agreed. Sometimes, I just want to lurk forever. Too lazy to post...XD!
