  • I've been watching Zom 100 and naturally want to see the characters in pixel form, so let's try with Mikazuki! I walk through the sprite creation process and share a few things about translating the character features into a pixelated design.

    I've been doing pixel art for 2 months now and you've been such an inspiration to me. I've improved so much and your videos are part of that improvement, so thank you!

    the fact that he can express so many things by just single pixels is just so crazy

    What a great character design! It's always fun seeing different takes on characters with an iconic element like that jacket 🤩 I think it worked well in your style of pixel art!
    That was a neat detail on the nose and the shading on the further side of the face too, it does a good job at portraying that face profile 😁

    • @BJGpixel
      @BJGpixel  9 місяців тому +4

      Thanks! Yeah the shading fell into place nicely for this 3/4 view; wonder how that'd work at other angles 😄 Translating this particular design got me thinking about trying more interesting looks when designing characters; I tend to approach it from the pixel first and would probably never go for such a "complex" jacket design but I like how it came out 😌

    the way the sprite evolved at the end is so cool. It turned out absolutely amazing, the colours are so nice and the black outline pixels are placed perfectly

    Been watching for a while, I’ve taken a lot of your notes while I started on my journey a few months back. Thank you for being one of many mentors I’ve taken advice from on UA-cam. You, pixel Pete, and saltoons. Finally able to catch these on release great video!

    I've watched a few pixel-art videos in the last days
    But none of them really "catched" me. I always thought I'm missing something or don't quit understand something
    But then you're channel glimpsed around the corner and I finally get it!
    Thanks so much, your a HUGE inspiration for me right now!

    This kind of art is always so fascinating to me. I don’t think my brain works in the same way yours does with having to illustrate everything in such a confined way. Would love to see a video of you trying to make your own minecraft skin and how you would deal with having two layers to work with.

    5:40 I prefer second to last sprite. Because in the final version skin shading color to similar to her top and the blend together. And because you overall brighten the colors there less contrast so when it`s show small-ish its hard to understand where something starts and ends. But changing jacket line from blue to purple looks good.

  • @lexibyday9504
    @lexibyday9504 9 місяців тому

    I've started letting photopea choose my colours for me. I make a collection of sprites in various different colours with absolutely no care, then reduce the colours all the way down to 8 or 10. Similar colours then merge together, the colours I used most take over, and the ones I used least get replaced. I then pick out those 8-10 colours for my pallet and use it for all aditional art.

  • @E_Fig05
    @E_Fig05 9 місяців тому

    I'm more of a black outline guy, but I've tried doing color for the line art, and I can never find a good color that fits. Great video, I really love when you do character pixel art. (Although I also love when you upload any kind of pixel art. 🤔)

  • @drunkshaman3623
    @drunkshaman3623 3 місяці тому

    This is really cool, can you make an animated version of this? Or how to study animation standing pose, running jumping action poses?

  • @elone3997
    @elone3997 9 місяців тому +1

    Awesome ! Not an easy thing to do with all those layers of color/clothing but looks great. Ha, that's the thing about pixel art - half of it is creating, and the other half is problem solving right!? I've started to shade the outlines of my stuff also now much more which really brings a whole new depth to things. It's just like when you look at the really good comic artists and they use the outline as both a border and part of the shading. I know you know, I'm just saying personally speaking ☺️ That took me a while to get my head around..

  • @frost8077
    @frost8077 9 місяців тому

    You make this look so easy. I tried to create original pixel sprites recently but it either didn't look good or just got too complicated with trying to add details.

    Awesome pixel art. The only bit I don’t love is how flat the top of the head looks - kinda feels a little like it’s been cut off accidentally!

    I still have a hard time doing my own art, i was wondering. In 3d people sometimes do like body types, and have that available to start. Follygon even sells modmesh to make your own out of parts. Would it be a good idea to have like. a document with body types, heads, styles, basically sillouette premade, you can assemble and then work on top afterwards ?
