Tutorial on low-ish resolution pixel art arms! I should do more tutorials. This also covers hands a little bit.

(I did my best to describe it all in the alt text, but I did have to abridge a bit in places)

#pixelart #ドット絵 #pixel_art #pixel #art #tutorial

Pixel art focused tutorial on arms & hands. "How 2 Arm By @Nada_Kuya"

Upper left "The Building Blocks", focuses on basic segments. Reading: "Shoulder is a fat teardrop", "Upper arm is a cylinder", "(forearm & upper arm are) approx. same length". "Forearm is a long teardrop"

Upper right area is different ways to assemble sections. Workflow & example images are provided "Shoulder -> Upper -> Forearm -> Hand -> Render." Under render example: "Contrasting color blocks carry over to render for readability to distinguish arm segments"

The bottom third of the image covers hands & wrists.

A camera-facing arm. "You can do Shoulder -> Hand for very foreshortened angles"

Bottom left wrist poses. "When sketching a hand, include the wrist before deciding if it looks off or not", "use corners to fine-tune silhouette"

Bottom right is hand examples. "Pointer and thumb are most important for visibility, the rest of the fingers can be their own block, like a mitten."

Some recent comm portraits for two characters in GBA Fire Emblem Pixel art style :)

#Pixelart #ドット絵 #art

Pixel art rendering of two characters. The one on the left is Takoda, the one on the right is Catori. They both have bright fur-lined outfits. Takoda on the right is the calmer looking character, having a somewhat long face and relaxed eyes. Catori is on the right, she has a rounder face with a more determined expression, she has some war-paint and makeup.

I've felt so unmotivated to do art lately. I can't really explain why, burn out? But I'm also frustrated that my art never seems to feel as polished as Id like it to be.
