Smallbro Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share Posted January 24, 2009 would it be best if i made it in paint and then put it in photoshop for shading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I really think a game made with graphic's all in MS Paint, would do pretty well. Most people want to go back to a simple game with less graphic's, were its easy on the eyes. MS Paint can provied that. :P (I did a poll) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukin Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 If you are using Paint for everything it's truly Pixelart :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

green raven Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 So, let's see where we went wrong..There are different kinds of ways to approach pixelart, you can either decide to block it out or use outlines.You seem to have mixed those two, which resulted in blocked outlines. These two don't match well so I suggest starting with an outline "which is the easiest way for beginning pixelartists".help image:ps: paint is an excellent tool :) especially for lineart. When you're coloring pixelart I prefer graphicsgale or paint.net since they have extra layers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devogen Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Well, if you want a simpler answer thats not a wall of JPG, maybe add some detail, some bricks, thin the lines out for all the borders and make them an even width. MS Paint is fine, but a good freebie as others have said is paint.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green raven Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 it's .png because jpeg is low quality. NEVER EVER save pixelart as jpg :)If you are serious at becoming better at pixelart I suggest you read it though, if not good luck.ps. use a one pixel "penciltool" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fax Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I think its awesome that even though you dont have any experience your learning to make your game custom and your own, instead of being an rmxp rip off project!good luck, I use gimp btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrig94 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 @Dragon- stop trying to get your Post count up with meaningless postsLook at Green Raven's thick outlines post, it really is great. Also paint=win.When I do art of any kind, I look at something of a certain style and try to imitate it. It is a lot easier than pulling something out of thin air, especially when you aren't experienced in the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
