Description
Pixeling in Paint Tool SaiI hope I did ok explaining how I did things, I'm really bad at explaining.
As for shading, I know I didn't really say anything or explained it too well, but you just really need to know your light source.
I can't really tell you that...and I mostly color on instinct. Usually I color in places that looks right to me, and darken
areas that looks like it should be darkened.
This is just a general idea of my process of pixeling, even I don't have a set order.
As you can see I go back and change things up a lot.
Enjoy my crappy tutorial!

The method looks good but I wouldn't recommand this tutorial for two "external" things :
- you don't specify your lightsource, how is one supposed to shade without knowing it ? it bugs me on the right of the dress...
- your lineart is messy, particularly in the hair

Thanks so much for the 2 tips
But I did mention this is a general idea of how I do my pixels, and I did mention I didn't explain things real well. I also mentioned it was a crappy tutorial myself. And you don't have to do what I do.
If you or other people want to use this, GREAT. If you don't that is GREAT too.
Thank you for the wonderful critique on my FIRST tutorial/process.
Have a nice day.

You must be ready for artistic and/or pedagogy critics on an art site.
I understand one can take a criticism personally but it is not insulting, my comment has a point and you'll get through that feeling.

I am sorry if I had overreacted to your comment, however you seemed to not read the descriptions before commenting.
I had already indicated there that there should be a light source and that I am not very good with light sources. Youβd understand the context of what I was trying to explain before actually critiquing. Furthermore, if you bothered to look at the personβs character, its hair design looks like the original character; the hair is messy on purpose. It is not a tutorial, rather my process of drawing, it is a general idea, I am not teaching another person how to pixel.
Thank you for trying to help but next time first read the artistβs description.
