[GM] Pixelize Your Tori




OBJECTIVE

Your objective in this event is to make a small pixel art styled picture of a tori. Despite event's name, you can display any player in your submission. Aside from that one character, only uke [or his part ;)...] can be present in the picture. If you need ideas for people who have decent texture sets, a sure bet is hampa or some staff members such as GMs.


example of an entry by flxy:

Some people think that way, some do not. But at the end you're right, you can use those tools to do pixel-art, just not everybody will support it.
I'm a former pixel artist... Maybe I should make mine so people could use it as a
reference, but I don't know who to do it of.. :c
I'll probably end up doing myself..


Anyway, here are some examples from my deviantArt gallery which consists
of almost all pixel art. http://rickyrico.deviantart.com/gallery/

Also, as some advise, since making an image 150x150 pixel by pixel would
be a big pain in the ass, do like how the example Jtank provided is:

But don't just increase the image size, as it'll turn out distorted.
Here is an example on how to make pixel art larger:

Hope I helped some of you, good luck.

The past makes you wanna die out of regret, and future makes you depressed out of anxiety. So by elimination, the present is likely the happiest time.
This is not my entry anymore, but I don't really want to delete the post,
so here is my actual entry:

MY FINAL ENTRY (Quote)



Had a couple of minutes, was bored, so this:



It's hampa.
Not sure if it's my final entry.. We'll see.. I'm very rusty at pixel art.

I recorded the process to give people an idea of how to go about it.

Wow man thats hella good.
Gotta teach me some tips.
I'll try it, are there any downloadable programs that delve in pixel art? I would prefer for them to be free.
Have a great day, thanks for looking at this post I guess.
