Don't worry ^^ My first few attempts went straight to the recycle bin. It takes a bit of practice to make something nice!

Hmmm, I've tried zooming in and FireAlpaca doesn't have the grid thing anymore. Tis shame

Try drawing your rough sketch, pressing edit, make the dimensions however smaller you want to, and then zoom in because it'll make it appear slightly smaller.

hm, the grid disappears when you have one of the snap tools on even if you aren't using the brush. That might be your problem

Azaalya [2014-11-16 23:50:13 +0000 UTC]

Great tutorial! I was just wondering if you could animate the pixel icons in FireAlpaca so that they move.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Stairfell In reply to Azaalya [2014-11-17 00:01:10 +0000 UTC]

at this moment, firealpaca does not have the capability to animate. If it did, I'd be using it.
