A Dark Souls 3 - 2D pixelart metroidvania was pitched to Bandai Namco ~6 years ago. This is now finally out of NDA, so enjoy the visuals created back then.

Can we please stop lying to ourselves and respect the fact that being an artist doesn't mean to be a magician. Cooks use recipes, Coders use documentation, engineers and architects make the plans based on existing things etc. Using =/= Copying No big deal.

Hey pixel artists, Maybe you heard that #pixelart needs to have a limited amount of colors "to be pixel art". Limiting your colors can help tremendously. BUT what you are looking for in pixelart is INTENTION - how you use your pixels. Limited colors alone don't guarantee this.

If you want to add more colors to your pixelart, it will have effect on the production time, but even more so in animations. It's good to be aware of it. This lil' infograph is now available again. download a clean version (comments)

What if: Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones or any other #FireEmblem part would get a sprite style #pixelart Hi-Bit remaster on the #nintendo #switch ? Necromant Lyon, the imperial prince of Grado. And the twin heirs of Renais, princess Eirika and prince Ephraim. A little tribute.

A chest which I created for the "1480 Vienna Renaissance Room" Trivia: Chests were the most common piece of furniture. It was pretty interesting to learn that cupboards actually developed quite late from chests, which were stacked on top of each other.

Pixel Art exists because of nostalgia is the single biggest and widespread misconception about #pixelart . Pixelartists have their own ideas, values and philosophy about creating their artwork with pixels. The reasoning can be explained completely without it.

One of the most fascinating things in art is to be able to learn how to construct photorealistic images. It trains both, the eye and the hand and being able to go really close to a reference without tracing is a very beneficial skill. (1/2)
