If I had my computer I could fix it. But some of these images aren't being displayed for some reason. So if any other staff can fix the images in the first post, that'd be great. Thanks.

Now is the voting part of the paperdoll competition. You are allowed one vote, I ask that you do not vote for yourself. I trust that most of you will follow this simple rule. Each entry will be listed below with the competitors name posted next to their name. Choose the name in the poll that corresponds with the name and entry that you wish to vote for. Good luck to everyone!

Note: do not vote for Zatir or Yuki. They are already on the team. We need votes to go to other entrants to prevent a tie for 3rd.

Henkie


Ice Warrior Astral


Lubbies


Nightshade06


Zatir


Monzta


Genbor



Darkstar64


Yuki


Amphi


Silver


Meowth


FireDarkGuy


If I forgot anyone, then please let me know. All entries are great, and I wish you all luck.

A majority of people think pixel art is something you can do real quick or simply don't have the patience to sit there and swap out colors until they get the right match. It's something you develop over years, and takes a quite of bit of time to master.

Here are a few tutorials that helped me out.

Another thing you could do is use reference pictures to give you idea's. Ive seen, and created, many pixel artists that were not good what so ever, but after time became better than me.

Color is the biggest thing that most amateur artist have trouble with. And something I still struggle with to this day. Even with 13 years under my belt. If you take the time, you could be great; and that is directed to everyone. :) Enjoy.

I use paint to do all my pixel art. I use Photoshop to set transparency for my art, and to set the file type. .png is best. .bmp and .gif are okay. Don't use .jpeg or .jpg please.

Another program you can check out is GIMP. Just google it. I dont't use it, but it has a lot of features that are helpful while doing pixel art.

Happy Birfday Spirit!!

Everything thing looks great. I had a whole list of criticism for everyone, thought I posted it. But I didnt, iPhones being weird. So now I have to type it all up again. I'm gonna make a few examples myself to get everyone an idea of how things will look and a direction for lighting and what not. Keep up the good work, you can always replace an entry with another if you think its better.

I also think I am going to make a small challenge for the three winners of this competition. :)

K finished one of the sides, Idk bout you guys but on my screen when I upload it the area around the nose is dark, darker than what I used.



It's because your saving your image as a .jpg. Need to save it as either a .png or .gif. I would say .png because .gif is used more for animations.

Also, I will be giving feedback to everyones work when I get off work.

Hey all,

As I joined PU as software developer I actually love to do also different things. So last week I installed GIMP to do some pixel art for fun, but GIMP has too many functions which I can't handle! So now I tried paint, which is easier to understand (for me at least)!

I've just uploaded a WIP already, just the hair is done. Tell me what you think :)



The eyes on your side views need to come back a bit. 1-2 pixels. I can't remember what it was. I'll get a sprite sheet with the eyes on it. The hair looks sweet, is it a mullet?

Even if you have no artistic ability what so ever, you can still participate. It's fun, and to see what everyone comes up with. It doesn't even have to be good, its the creativeness and how unique it is. I can always fix up whatever entries players submit. So think of it as a creativity challenge.

We also have eight(?) differently colored eyes, I'll get a image up here soon so players can see the eye placement. Also, if you want, you don't have too; but I'll separate the images from each other.

You have til May 25th to have your entry completed, before the poll begins. Good luck, and have fun with it. Staff my edit my post if anything needs changing.
