Dude, why are you sooooooo good at pixel art?!??! I praise you!

by Suptapong, 15 June 2011 21:53

Dude that looks 1st to me. Awesome job!

by Kgustafso, 16 June 2011 01:55

I think I'm looking at 162 minutes? How long have you been doing pixel art. The reason I ask is this is far beyond traditional art skills. Very nice job. Something to truly be proud of.

by CloudCharger, 16 June 2011 02:08

Thank you all for nice words! Actually, I wouldn't call this pure pixel art. As far as I know, pixel art requires that every single pixel is delicately put on the right place. This picture is quite accurate but it doesn't have that 'pixel level perfection'. (This thread tells what most pixel artists consider pixel art:http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11299&PID=139318#139318 ) I think this piece is more like a tiny digital drawing or painting.
@CloudCharger: I don't really know how long I've been doing pixel art but art/drawing in general has been my hobby for some 16 years! :D

by pixelwiz, 20 June 2011 17:06

I am also very curious how much "real" "pixelart" we can expect as a response to that link over the next days!

Well hello zebra! :D

by BlackDragon, 20 July 2011 10:12

Why don't you make more pics

by zebra, 20 July 2011 16:15

Well, I've been a bit lazy recently... XD (And a bit out of ideas too... :/ )

by BlackDragon, 21 July 2011 16:23

Draw a cat sleeping on a pillow

by zebra, 27 July 2011 18:14

Maybe... ;D

by BlackDragon, 30 July 2011 17:10

Artists like you make me realize that I'm not very good at drawing. ...oh well. Very cool none the less.

by powerhouselb, 09 August 2011 16:13

Thank you! And don't give up - you can always improve your skills. :) For example there's lots of good (and even free) tutorials in the web - try them. :)

Wow, just wow! It's like it's real and I could take it from the screen! And you've been doing this for sixteen years? >.> I've only been drawing for about two years... Keep up the great work! :D

by ChibiLittle245, 09 January 2012 11:05

Thanks ChibiLittle245! :) Just keep on drawing and eventually you'll become a great artist for sure! :)

Thank you!

by BlackDragon, 03 March 2012 11:17

do you copy from pictures or do it from scratch

by TyTy21, 04 March 2012 16:13

I don't copy, I use reference (or sometimes I do these just from scratch). There's a big difference between those things. And btw, the ref I used for this is in the first comment.

by BlackDragon, 09 March 2012 07:49
