16 bit fox made in pixel studio

I guess these would fit in here. These are some initial planning sketches for a (not game-related) commission I’ve started working on this week:

The final piece will be pixel art, but it certainly faster to lay things out with my tablet. I’ll probably keep using this hybrid approach in future pieces as well.

(+1)

I meant to post the hires version of the 2nd as well, but I guess I clicked the wrong file! I guess you can use that to see what resolution the final version will be at :D

you can edit your post and add the picture again.

Pixel Arthur Morgan.

I challenged myself to make Arthur within an hour using the cover art as reference.

Because of that, there are some oversights.

At first glance it looks alright but if you look closely, you might start to see some errors made.

Looks Beautiful

Nice! I especially like the rendering on the top-right one

(+2)

This is so incredible! I love the colour palettes and the detail. I am also trying to learn to pixel water falling at the moment and it's not easy.. Maybe I should do some studies like this one!

Horror game - concept art, like "Darkwood"

(1 edit)

Great concept art,  I really like the first image.
I love how dark the forest is in these pieces, especially compared to the bright sky. It gives the forest a strong atmosphere.


Out of curiosity, what is the story about this monster, and what does it do?

The post got deletede for no reason

Pixel Dutch Van Der Linde from Rdr2.

I suck at drawing eyes, I had to do them numerous times. This is the best I could do.

I agree! It’s when I’m sketching I free myself if limitations or “trying to make” something and I always surprise myself!  

I did these sketches on my iPad while waiting hours online to buy TS tickets that were selling out  fast yesterday. Can you sense my anxiety from these pictures? Lol I feel our emotions come out more easily when we sketch and that surprised me yesterday haha 😂

Right before  May started, I made a little walking sim for "Cozy Spring Jam 2023" called "Relaxing Walk" (I know, Such a creative name)
Before I started any work, I made little sketches for what the levels in the game should look like. Some sketches have been updated in post.
The winter to spring transition level was supposed to be the first level but I ended up scrapping for the time being (since we were given 3 days to make a game). Recently (2 weeks ago) decided it was time to add it back to the game.

To save myself some time I ripped the landscape of level 1 from another game of mine, PropHunt.

Level 1 Forest Day Sunny

Level 2
Level 2 Forest Night Rainy

Level 3 Beach Sunset

Winter Snow to Spring

Sketch about Windows... Let's assume that the last plate contains blue screen. ^_^

happened to me yesterday, but replace the blue screen with a black screen. I could only see throttlestop and task manager.

Had to go into recovery and uninstall feature update.

(+1)

I permanently moved to GNU/Linux after 8 hours of update, error, 6 hours of try to roll back and the blue screen in the end

(+1)

Good. Microsoft's push to windows 11 is slowly making me move towards linux as well.
I really don't like overly simplified settings menu and the automatic updates. ( I forgot to disable windows update service this time around  )

(1 edit)

When I last tried to do it on a friends desktop I found out that they made it harder. IIRC they decided to deprecate gui app that could do it.

And I couldn't open that app... Is it the method/app you used?

(1 edit) (+1)

I only use services.msc ( the normal service app in windows ). Type services in search, scroll down till you see windows update and just disable it's service.
typically it works but it could be that newer updates have task scheduler checking if updates service is on or not. For that you might need group policy editor.
since I'm using windows 10 home they disabled the gpedit or Group Policy editor however you can easily bypass that.

Thanks for an advice ;)

While working on Magical Girl TRPG, I've been designing characters for the protagonists. Here are my progress, thus far:


Nice!!!!

aww these are so cute! I love the orange and blue one! super cool balance of colours and style! 

(+2)

A very weird drawing i made. It was made in adobe draw back in 2020.

I don't even remember what i was trying to make.


(+1)

idk, it reminds me of some point and click horror game lol

yeah, it does kinda look like a flash horror game

(+1)

Ooo yes I am getting creepy whimsical tree vibes!

(+3)

Playing around some environment ideas for my rpg. This first attempt is a little too generic I think, but I’ll get there in a few more tries no doubt!

(+1)

Ooo nice mood! Very mysterious! I like it! 

(+3)

That sounds like fun!

Here's a thing I threw together in a few minutes to try out a different artstyle.

(+2)

thank you, this is so swag

(+4)

Sketch of my old cat who winked at the right time 

(+4)

Alright, you got me. This is a thread I can get behind.



I'm not posting these in any particular order, but there's a couple more that I probably have elsewhere on my hard drive somewhere.

(+1)

Nice! I especially like the astronaut

The funny thing was this was based on some alcohol pods that were inspired by that really stupid trend going on a few years back when people were eating tide pods.

Granted that was years ago but it really did inspire me to make it, but I never got the chance to finish it and it just ended up being one of those things I never bothered to finish.

(+1)

These sketches are pretty neat! The ones with the astronaut and the skull are my favorites.

There was a pixel art challenge posted on Mastadon the other day, to recreate one of several photos as a 1-bit piece. I sat down and just kinda zoned out for an hour, and when I woke up this was on the canvas:

For comparison, the original ref is here

(+1)

Very cool!

1-bit art is always interesting to look at. This makes me want to try it out!

It’s a cool challenge, definitely recommend trying it out!
