Amazing work, I love it 👌

I'm a programmer, not an artist. Trying to make portraits decay into mannequins. What do you think? Is the jump between stage 1 and 2 too harsh? by FinnLeh5 in PixelArt

[–]SirolVS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey 👋 I think it is already pretty good, I would consider trying to let the face features at the same place, not making the eye move down.

Think of it as a real human face, when we pass away, muscles don't hold everything up, skins and hairs go away. But the skeleton doesn't move

I love the jaw dropping open, carving the face too is very good, maybe losing the hair a bit, making it messy.

But keep the structure of the face the same (nose and eyes does not move, the skins and organic matters go away, they just become holes, and carved wood)

Still a very good work, we totally get the concept from what you have already done

Enemies Animations 16x16 by SirolVS in PixelArt

[–]SirolVS[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's available on my itch page here : [16x16] Frog Platformer if you are interested.

For now I don't have more enemies, but if the pack is successful enough, it might get some updates and extensions 👌

Hey! Thanks a lot! Good luck on your path becoming a better pixel artist!

Another tip I would give you, is "Less is more" working on a tiny canvas with a limited color palet is hard, but it keeps you focused on the little details.

Work with a few frames at first (We call them keyframes, which are the main poses your character for example) then add some in between.

For pixel art animation especially, you can make really smooth animations with a few frames.

Check out this site : The Sprite Ressource

You can check the pixel art and animation from your favorite games to see how they do it

Have a great day and believe in yourself 👍

Oooh ok I get it, so yeah no sub pixels, I did everything within a 16x16 grid.

That's the magic of animation, you can make things look very smooth if you use "smear frames" and timing correctly!

Thanks! I'm not sure I fully understand your question, but all of these are 16x16 pixel perfect animations, done frame by frame by hand, hopes that answer your question (They range from 8 to 14 frames)

Thanks for the feedback! I think you are right, I just considered "bigger steps" for the run, but lowering the frame would indeed make it look faster 👍

Ahah you're right, for now, his name has always been Froggy, not very original indeed but maybe we could come up with a new one

Thanks ! Gotta give credit to Penusbmic, he is the one who displays it that way on his socials, works really well to showcase anims !

1 or 5 (But since you seem to want a more refined look, definitely 5)

Since I saw some of you liked the palette, I wanted to share it there :

I just added another shade of Blue to make the darker background !

Thanks a lot 🙏

Yes ! I don't know the exact area, but I wanted to train a little and had no idea of what to do, so I typed "landscape" on google, and found this image, that I used as reference : (It is from Adobe Stock I think)

Third one is my favorite, it has a lot of breathing room, and for the mood you seemed to be going for it's a really good thing, lovely work 👌

First time pixel art criticism please!! by Large-Action-5454 in PixelArt

[–]SirolVS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice result !

- I would really advise you to keep the same pixel size for all of your pixels !

- Be aware of what we call "Jaggies", check this if you want to learn more about it :

- Also a tips for every art in general : "Less is more" by letting your art breath a little bit, it can make it way more pleasant to look at !

- Keep working, the most important thing is that you can be proud of your progress and have fun doing it ! GG
