pixel 2
tanuki
(Jan 23, 2011)
Crow with a bowl of udon.This is my 3rd attempt at this scene. This is also my first time doing both dithering and anti-aliasing by hand. I'm still trying to get the hang of pixel art. The time is way off on the first version because sometimes I forget that I'm drawing and instead I go cook something. The third to the last revision has the full color palette I used, 26 colors on 15 layers. Somehow I managed to hit 6 hours exactly, but then I remembered the shadow for the crow.

cripes those must have taken years done as you described! damn

Is it any fun?

Kind of, slightly, but not using shi painter. It's pretty hard to stay motivated doing so much for so little result. It'd be a little easier in photoshop because of better layer controls, such as lock transparency. I doubt I'll do any more here after I finish the current one. Lascaux doesn't work in such a way for pixel art to even be possible with it. |

This one is for a contest. It's looking about as crowded as I was hoping it'd be.

Pretty interesting so far. The demon girl on the left looks promising :)

If you came up with all this on your own you're more creative than I'll ever be.

no, they're all monsters from japanese folklore. Well, the giraffe is a kirin, which is described as a "chinese giraffe" because the origins of that mythical monster were chinese artists that heard descriptions of giraffes and tried drawing them without ever seeing one, but I decided to just draw a giraffe. |

I had thought about straightening the horizon, but I think that's part of the charm of the original photo. My screen is badly in need of recalibrating because I can't see the subtle changes in color at all when I'm blending but they're very obvious on my other screen. I'm using the eyedropper in photoshop on the original photo to find the rgb numbers, because this kind of sky with color shifts is always a mystery to me. This is also the first time I've ever used the rgb color chooser in lascaux, which I just recently discovered. I was suppose to do 4 drawings today, but I won't even finish this one because I was testing something that wasn't working out.original- link

are you on assigmnent or something.. why do you say you were "supposed" to do four pictures..?
tanuki (Jan 19, 2011)
I'm just trying to do one landscape and one portrait a day just to do it, but I got behind last week from a couple of days where most of my free time was taken up by other things and I never fully caught up. |

The appelets are too complex. I go to the directions and it doesn't make sense. Like how do I resize the parameters, I pressed one button and do not know how to restart so been stuck with it. I thought Id like computer art but these appelets are too complex and made for engineering minds. I need a website that will explain them directly and the basics. I am middle aged and technologically disadvantaged. Most of my drawings I was just guessing which buttons do what, that's crap, why can't we KNO...

All these darn hippies would be a lot easier to draw if they got a haircut. I guess his name is Avi, because I sure hope it isn't Celia.original- link

I'm not quite sure what you're getting at, unless you're asking if that's a photo of my parents? No, it's just a recently taken random photo I found. |

I might do something like draw one landscape a day. This one isn't based on anything, I was just playing with color and the tools.
Flubbles (Jan 11, 2011)
Lets do it then, starting from now. I'm pretty sure I wont succeed though.

We don't keep score here in the US anymore, we wouldn't want anyone to experience not being a winner. Just show up and get a participation trophy! Hell, look at the Nobel Peace Prize. http://www.cafepress.com/+lol_nobel_mini_button

I started my landscape, and 25 minutes in my computer has froze and I cant get rid of the egg timer. Shitty bollocks wank stain.Got rid of the page I was working on and restored my session with firefox, and luckily I saved the drawing. I'll have to finish it tomorrow now I've lost the enthusiasm.
Suntan (edited Jan 12, 2011)
Really nice rainy, Spring day, tanuki. :)I thought you said 15 minutes, Flub, and already you're up to 25! ;p Let's see it. |

normally I use a 1px, 255 opacity, 255 flow brush with blending off an jtablet on, but I thought I'd try a bigger brush with blending on for at least part of it and opacity and flow changing throughout. This is the drawing for yesterday, because yesterday all I did was finish the drawing from the day before.original- link

Her eyes kept giving me a hard time, as well as other areas. I think I redrew her chin several times.original- link

It's all good practice, you'll remember for next time.
