Poster / cheat cheat - 6 by 6 pixel outline shapes.


Generated with a tool I wrote. Add up binary into a grid. Filtering out any junk shapes. I ended up with these. It took my pc close to a full day to filter every shape out into a canvas. Might be useful for reference or coloring or training.

Not having straight lines when sketching at the start makes things more difficult. Cleaning up is a time consuming thing. references help out. Undo and redo are useful.

Metal plate - practice


 I recorded a part of a video by dya games. This a time lapse video where various items were shown being drawn. I converted the video to a gif after cropping the section I wanted to study. The gif I loaded into a sprite editor for further study. I made a very similar version shown here. But mine was smaller. Small changes and time spent recreating things might help speed up learning this pixel art thing.
