Description
I had today off so I spent all day on this, about 8 hours... Is was suppose to start as a pixelmoon entry, but it slowly escalted into this...I am not happy with some parts of it, like some of the outlines, but I will be fixing those later... You may also notice that the apartments are empty... That is because i wanted to involve other pixel artists in this, and beginners.
All you need to do is get one of the templates, and furnish the room. Apartments A are in the left corner, apartments B are in the center, and C are in the right corner. There are 13 floors. So tell me which floor/apartment section you want and I'll insert your apartment. You can change anything except the position of the doors/windows. Since apartments B and C have fire escapes, you can also decerate them. And if you want a parking space, you can make a car as well, there are 15 open spaces. And feel free to make flowers, trees and anything else to decerate the apartments. Apartment A on the 13th floor is mine though
The page dedicated the the complex: [link]
Here are the templates with windows off to the side:
Apartment A - [link]
Apartment B - [link] (with fire escape)
Apartment C - [link] (with fire escape)
Here are the templates with the windows in place:
Apartment A - [link]
Apartment B - [link] (with fire escape)
Apartment C - [link] (with fire escape)
Just try to keep it semi scale...
Or you can just comment...

There are many progs that pixel artists use, including MS PAint, Photoshop, Image Ready, MGI, and so on... The best tip I can give is to go here: [link] It is one of the most informative and complete pixel art tutorial I ever saw, it is where I learned.

Nice job there man, pretty cool. I like the group effort behind it personally.
By the way, is apartment 1C taken yet? If not, may it be reserved for me?

The apartment itself is nicely pixeled -- dull colours for brick and parking, but clear, effective, with distinguishable details (complete with garbage dump and graffiti.) Hehe, the sunroof will be the envy of all your other tenants. 
Btw, thanks for the addition.

You can simply upload it to your deviation gallery, or you can email it to me ensellitis [no spam] @ gmail dot com
Just remove all the spaces from that address, remove the [no spam] and replace dot with a period.
Since people are starting to submit apartments, I am going to get to work on the page for it so people can click on the windows and see the apartment in full.
Your room has been reserved, happy pixeling!

All in all...I like it. It is rather advanced for some of the usual pixel arts I've seen.

That's a really sweet idea! I'm tempted... I only just started out in the pixel world. How about a swimming pool on the roof?

If you want a pool on the roof, you gotta make it.

Okay, I gave it a try.
What do you think?

I also tried to make a little character who could stand beside it, but he turned out way too big.

Great stuff, ens. I do have a question about the template, specifically the apartment b template. Are we supposed to move the windows so they're flush with the floor or extend the floor to the windows?
And, no biggie, but the windows are bigger than the doors.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
In my apartment complex, you get big windows.
And sorry I forgot to mention the windows... The windows are there as more of a guide so you know where they are... You can put them in there if you want, if you do, the windows are 2 pixels above the floor line.

Forget that! Just look at the themplates I just just posted, they are more like 4... I guess I should have looked before replying

Holy crap, yeah! May I have Apartment A on the 2nd floor? Not sure about a car though. This is so cool.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sweet! I'll get on it as soon as possible.

I think it looks great...
Hmm... and the idea sounds nice... I haven't dabbled in pixel art in quite a while. I may end up sending you an apartment if I have enough time in the next few days.
