Pixel Joint Forum: Scribbles Can Be Works of Art Too!

Message

   Probably. I'm alive!

Anyway, I remembered a challenge a while back similar to this and thought it would be fun to try for the sheer insanity I may or may not cook up.

Scribbled on the canvas and pretty much sat there trying to find meaning in my scribbles. Here's what I've found so far.

I also cheated by adding more scribbles if I got stuck. 8D

There's a deer looking thing and he's kind of derpy. And a mouse (with an eyepatch) holding a stick. And then some kind of animal playing fetch - maybe it's really a wrench. I bet they're pulling a bank heist or some other sort of highly illegal activity.

I saw a foot too, but I hate drawing feet so I pretended not to see it. 

And I'm still looking for the meaning in my scribbles. I just wanted to include you guys too. C:

WHAT DO YOU GUYS SEE?

	I get how this is a neat concept, but doesn't it defeat the main ideas of pixel art? And I don't understand why this is in the WIP forum; it seems like it should be in a more off topic forum

	Ah, I see what you mean. But I had plans to turn this into a finished art piece and the scribbles were meant as a way to give me a starting point since I had no idea what I wanted to do. My only thought when I started was: "I want to pixel something... but what?" Does that make more sense?

	I see two people having sex. Yes, I know, I'm a sick person.

	Well, in the bits you've coloured I see an epic trio; Harry Potter turned into an angry squirrel, his patronous looking derpy, and either Hedwig or an Eagle. Maybe a Phoenix? Without your colouring I see a whale.

	You are defeating the whole point of making pixelart out of children's drawings if you make the scribbles yourself and 'also cheated by adding more scribbles if I got stuck'. This defeats the whole exercize. Just google children's art and promise yourself to only pick the 6th or 11th image (left to right). Your only choices are those 2 nothing else at all. Then you make it happen with the one you pick... Edited by jalonso - 13 August 2011 at 2:44pm
