New pixelart. Hope it works well as a profile picture.
@thecanine@twtxt.net I love the low-rez pixel art style😍, but the face is a bit hard to read in my opinion. 🤔
@thecanine@twtxt.net Uuuuhhh, eleven pixels, good job!
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 11 pixels in both length and height, but over 70 pixels in total - a lot more than the other tiny ones.
@justamoment@twtxt.net Thanks. The face readability is a fair critique. I was trying to keep the ears and “hair” similar, to the previous one, just down-scaled.
That limited me, on how to do the rest, working with a canvass of this size. The result somewhat reminds me of some animals from the animated shows of previous two decades, or the artstyle they inspired, just in a very pixelated form.
@prologic@twtxt.net Me neither, that’s one of the reasons, why I don’t post pixelart more oftern.
Even when I somehow convince myself not to be lazy and find time to start trying, sometimes I just place a few pixels and realize that “today’s not the day”, or end up with something I don’t like the look of and decide to delete.
The art AI also further encourages my laziness, as I’m more so a shitposter, than I am an artist. Before the days of AI, I’d have to draw meme posts in MS Paint or somehow convert them to pixels, but now I can get almost all of that painted a hundred different ways by a few different programs and choose what works the best, for what I’m trying to accomplish.
@thecanine@twtxt.net Oh I see, it’s best to stylize to the extreme in that cases, dropping parts would lose it’s “character” after all, still love it a lot! 👍
