Heyyy look at me, animating again. I don’t have a good explanation for this character. She’s a sushi themed roller derby fighting game character and I can not explain how this mash of themes came to be, but here we are!

#animation #my art #digital art #original character #animated gif #I've never been good at tagging and i never will be

My blog may be dead but my love of pixel art isn’t!

For Beginners!

a small introduction to pixel art

a good beginner’s pixel art tutorial (pictured)

Derek Yu’s (creator of Splunkey) crash course on pixel art and his follow up tips on improving

easy steps to improving your sprite work

three more tips on improving your spritework:

a few more quick tips!

Collections

Studio Miniboss has a TON of tutorials and I highly suggest them - they’re the people behind Celeste & Towerfall!

LoSpec, a site that collects tutorials and pixel art palettes for anyone to use (pictured)

RHL experiments with colors a lot and gives some great tree and other scenery advice

MortMort’s video tutorials - he’s been doing it for a while and has tons to look at

Pixel Pete’s Video Tutorials - cover the basics well

Brandon James Greer’s Youtube Tutorials - He does some really rad sprite analysis and Challenge Videos too

some water tile tutorials I found a while back

RPG Maker/Game Oriented

nice tutorial about making a character in the standard rpg/three-fourths perspective

a nice series of pixel art tutorials focused on top down/three forths perspective games like RPGs and 2D Zelda-likes (pictured)

my tips on spriting charactersets for RPG Maker 2003

a quick tip on character walk cycles

metatiles: what are they, and how to make them

More Advanced

tiny introduction to clusters

a great talk on banding, clusters, and dithering, and how to correct common mistakes

interesting way to create a palette

cyangmou’s stuff is absolute gold and has a lot of analyses, check out his stuff on perspective! (pictured)

a deep look at pixel art in general

this guy’s nice dense talk on pixel art, including deconstructing good rpg tilesets & varying your tiles for video games.

slynerd’s stuff is rad and comprehensive

Good luck!

#aaaaaa as someone with a deep love for pixel artt this is wonderful!!!#thank you for compiling all this

may 2019 vs april 2020 redraw. I felt so stuck in my art, it’s amazing to see how much I’ve actually progressed! This was my favorite drawing I’d done and now I have a much better version <3
