MrKris Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 @TianaJRP:> it is the first drawing i ever draw on the COMPUTER, i drew a bunch of stuff already. But thank :)Drawing on the computer and drawing on paper are two completely different things, maybe the methods are similar, like shading is used in both. You still have to remember, it's a mouse and not a pencil. ;) Good luck learning. There are hundreds of pixel art tutorials all over the web that can help you too. I have made a few myself, they are in the tutorial section if you want to take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 You should get a tablet if you plan to be drawing on the computer a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kusy Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 @Murdock:> This is ingenius almost.. Very well done.. it could use more shading and highlights but it looks goodSeriously Murdock… stop using Travian banner with your game's name slapped on it, that's just ridiculous.It looks well... bad. But don't take it too seriously, what is bad is the technique, colors are completely off and they are flat, beyond that I don't really see any kind of need to point out mistakes - I don't think it's something you can help at the moment so just keep on drawing and you'll eventually should get better. And since you're 13, you have a lot of time for getting better.Try looking at professional work, copy some parts of it, just keep working with graphics and first of all - do it on paper if you don't have a tablet, that way you practice and have a chance of making something that looks acceptable.Kris, she's not doing pixel-art and I think that's quite obvious.Drawing on computer IS similar to drawing on paper, the only difference being that lines are showing on your monitor, not directly under your pencil - and that's quite much of a difference in reality. But again, without a tablet - don't draw on a computer, it's just a waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a good start and if you keep working at it you will probably be pro in no time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kusy Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I'm not telling you that you suck. I'm simply suggesting that you draw by hand for now, practicing with a mouse won't really teach you too much since it's a whole different thing and mouse is not to be used as a drawing tool, you are not obliged to buy a tablet, but just the same - you are not obliged to draw on a computer.And even more - if you do get a tablet some day, your practice with hand drawing on paper will do you way more good than trying to do anything with a mouse. Don't waste your time on it because you just can't make graphics comparable to hand drawn with a mouse.Again, don't take negative comments as personal insults.

magezhilo Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 @TianaJRP:> how do you know? Im not a pro, i was never a pro, i would probably never willQuit being such a damn sad sack, have some confidence damnit. I sucked too, but I like to think that now I've reached the level of adequate, but I didn't get there by saying I'll never get there. Listen to Kusy's advice, once you learn the basics of drawing by drawing on paper with pencil first, then drawing digitally is an easier transition. When you get t the point I suggest a Wacom Intuos4 Tablet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
