This is an unfinished work, but nearly all the lines come from a screenshot in AutoCAD. Many of these lines will go away, some will stay, and others will be modified to look better. The final result will 100% appear to be pixel art, but I'm not sure if this is exactly pixel art since I really didn't place the pixels themselves by hand. ![]() |

It isn't cheating, it is smart to use guidelines. It's like saying using a ruler is cheating when hand drawing.
You'll have to clean those lines a lot by hand, anyway. So yeah, if it saves you time, gives you a better perspective and starting point, go for it. |

Using reference images/programs is a great way to learn, and can help a lot with images that might be especially tricky with proportion or shape. It is by no means cheating and is a good tool, but don't over rely on it! An over reliance on a tool could cause you to stop learning or find it much more difficult to replicate the effect without it. The WIP is looking great though!

Im architect and make pixel art as hobby, use every tool you have is not cheating, is use your resources.
