Hey PixelJoint community! Fresh newb here. And by newb I mean this is my first time ever attempting pixel art. The closest things to art I've done is a color theory course I took for credits and some doodles in notebooks... but I digress. I've respected and enjoyed pixel art for a while now and finally decided it was time to start dabbling in it. I read the tutorial by cure (which I picked up from r/pixelart) and the Noobtorials Hapiel collected. I decided my first project will be an avatar for myself on PJ. I also took cure's advice and limited myself to a 4 color palette similar to the Gameboy. Here it is:  Update1:  At first I had no idea what I wanted to create. I mostly was messing around with all the buttons, knobs, and icons grafx2 had. I started with shapes and eventually ended up with what you see above. It is far from complete as this is my first stage and attempt. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for reading.  edit: trying to figure out how to smooth out the planet lol (also added more stars!) |
