Description *wipes*


Lots of work here!! Finally, I am done with this wordy kind of tutorial. lololol.
I hope you appreciate how I shared my knowledge of doing pixel art.

I tell you pixel art is fun! I enjoy doing it so you should be too. There

may be lots of things to remember but as you find your style and fix it

a little more, you will enjoy it.

You can get a binary eraser by duplicating the binary pen and setting the occupancy to zero c:

You're welcome c:

The explanation is simple yet detailed enough to understand easily and I didn't come across any parts that confused me due to how the language was used!

Your tutorial was what helped me start my pixeling experience and I will always be thankful for it c:

Just a quick ask- I noticed the binary tool has a sharp effect if u use a larger setting, but legacy pen doesnt, I thought this download had it, mind if I get a refund please?

I made a pixel art on sai, but I now want to upload the file and it is really, really small. Is there any way to make it bigger once I have finished without the edges of the pixels blurring?

Hi not sure if you still need this or not, here is a tutorial on resizing your pixels to look bigger.

ThePurpleFandom In reply to its-just-business [2015-12-21 00:56:39 +0000 UTC]

actually I found a better way! Just select binary color on the mode and what you use is the legacy pen on size 1

What if i want to make a bigger pixel art, bigger than 300x300? if i uses a bigger canvas the binary pen doesnt work properly?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

ERDJIE In reply to Crylander [2015-10-04 04:23:38 +0000 UTC]

The size of canvas wont affect the binary pen's quality. It would lose the quality if you resize your work from
its original size.

Oroia [2015-09-20 05:00:33 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for the tutorial! Also, I was also getting really confused on the Pass through thing but I figured it out kinda. You're supposed to click the FOLDER then change the mode and pass through pops up. I wasn't 100% paying attention that they were all folders and sub-folders and thought they were just regular layers.

I don't have a pass through folder???
I have overlay, screen , binary, lumi , lumi and shade....
What do I do??? TT^TT

Maybe your are using a previous version. It's above "Normal" mode.

Vincebae In reply to Painted-Serenity [2015-09-04 21:59:22 +0000 UTC]

Hi! I would recommend downloading Easy Paint Tool Sai, which I believe is the full version. You have much more freedom on the full version!

You can find it here:Β www.mediafire.com/download/drs…

This is the same version I use, and it's great!

(It doesn't work on Mac, I don't know if you use Mac so I just wanted to say.)

bamfcat [2015-08-13 19:04:30 +0000 UTC]

I have a question ;-;
What does setting a folder to "Pass Through" do? When I imported my files from FireAlpaca to Paint Tool Sai, all of my folders were preset to Pass Through... I can't figure out for the life of me what it does though. When I change it from Normal to Pass through to Normal and back again, I don't see a change...

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

ERDJIE In reply to bamfcat [2015-08-13 20:03:10 +0000 UTC]

Unlike "Normal" blend folder/group, all layers with different blend modes inside a "Pass through" folder will blend over another layer/groupΒ outside it.Β Β 
This explains better:
