Description
Whee! Finally finished!
Sorry if the shading and anatomy isn't the best. Working without refs can cause that...
My second pixel horse ever, and I must say I like the outcome. ^^ There's still a lot that could have been refined, but nah, I can't be bothered with this any longer. Besides, it's 3.30 am and I *really* should be sleeping...
Drawn in Photoshop CS2.

Well then... Night night.

People who work with pixel art are living gods *bows and makes an offering of a cookie*

Aww... *gooood cookie*
I think those who work with MS Paint are the true gods of pixel art, though.

Wow hun!!! You make my giraffe look like a seaming pile of horse poo by comparison. Why were you so worried about shading, you have mad shading skillz! Lovely.

Nah, your giraffe is awesome! Well, It was tough getting the shades to blend ok, so I had a right to be worried.
Thanks for your help with the tutorial link btw, it helped (I've bookmarked it so I don't have to bother you about it again lol).

You are welcome! I know that site has come in handy whenever I want to venture back into pixel. I always forget how to do things, so that site is my pixel handbook, lol.

Thank you.
I started out in greyscale with roughly ten shades, just to get shadows and highlights looking ok. I added color once that was done. ^^

No problem. ;3
I bet it would've been a pain in the butt to get all shading and coloring right.
But, I bet after completing it, you just stand back and admire how it turned out and such, lol.

sandeyes13 In reply to ??? [2009-03-30 01:48:48 +0000 UTC]
Amazing! Just simply amazing! Did you do this all on one layer? Or on several? When you shaded it, did you have the pixel brush set to opacity or something, or did you use a separate colour each time?
Sorry for all the questions. I am sorta getting into pixel art, and well, seeing this has totally made me wanna go and redo my pixel from last night. XD
Prolly doesn't help that I have no idea how to actually do anything with pixel stuff...Soo....

SheWolff In reply to sandeyes13 [2009-04-02 13:10:55 +0000 UTC]
Thanks. ^^ I had several layers for this one. I started out in greyscale with roughly nine or ten shades, I think, and added color once I felt the shading looked ok. 100% opacity brush with an exception of some final touches.
No worries. I'm just getting into pixel art myself, and I feel so lucky that I have Photoshop. MS Paint would *kill* me.

sandeyes13 In reply to SheWolff [2009-04-02 19:21:19 +0000 UTC]
Okay then, so you didn't work straight from colour like I thought you did (I assumed you had since you posted a colour WIP)
Thank you though, you really cleared up some of my confusion, lol.

SheWolff In reply to sandeyes13 [2009-04-02 19:36:22 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, I did originally start in color, but decided to start over and go with greyscale instead.
You're welcome. ^^

Thankies hun.

Pliochippus In reply to lorrainicorn [2009-03-30 01:48:10 +0000 UTC]
pixel art = a drawing made up entirely of pixels (yanno 1 pixel at a time) with no effects added, just each individual pixel drawn by hand Hope that makes sense hun!
