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!"

i still love this curly brace art from last year, even if it ended up looking like gacha game splash art lmao

[ #art #fanart #cavestory ]

A high-angled drawing of Curly Brace from Cave Story, winking and smiling at the viewer as a strong breeze blows her hair to a side. She has one hand on her hip and the other holding her machine gun as Sue the Mimiga stands with her, also smiling at the viewer.

Now that “Masahiro Sakurai on Creating Games” has come to a close, I’m reminded of the wisdom he shared when showcasing his WarioWare D.I.Y microgame. It was a great message about developing and creating games!
