Update on my pixel art guide for beginners:

Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing!
I also updated quite a bit of information too.
I hope it will help somebody!

I never posted this here, but I made a pretty big write-up over on Tumblr for anyone interested in learning #pixelart!
It's a guide on software, fundamentals, jargon and resources.

Since links are legal on Bsky I can share it: www.tumblr.com/tofupixel/75...
#tutorial

Hope someone finds it useful!
A screenshot of a tumblr post reading: "Title: So you want to learn pixel art? Subtitle: Part 1 of ??? - The Basics! Hello, my name is Tofu and I'm a professional pixel artist. I have been supporting myself with freelance pixel art since 2020, when I was let go from my job during the pandemic." Two images comparing artistic improvement, the left is of a rudimentary tree, and the right is of a statue in a wall recess surrounded by plants and dappled light. "My progress, from 2017 to 2024. IMO the only thing that really matters is time and effort, not some kind of natural talent for art. This guide will not be comprehensive, as nobody should be expected to read allat. Instead I will lean heavily on my own experience, and share what worked for me, so take everything with a grain of salt. This is a guide, not a tutorial. Cheers!"

Concept: Nibblets. The Nibblets want to eat your turnip. You pop them by moving over them. You collect Nibblet nectar to buy / upgrade your tools to fend off more nibblets. Not all nibblets can be popped with just the cursor alone etc.

Two boss enemies I made for a shmup gig that did not go anywhere and I had no time for it anymore. Never posted these anywhere before. The brief was to make a bunch of mainly boss enemies in a somewhat less greebly DDP style. #pixelart #ドット絵
