In pixel art, so I’m lectured, the artist has control over single pixels. To test this statement, I created a pixel portrait of Fred Astaire from a black and white photo reference. I guess it’s a work in progress.

Pixel art for the Pixel Dailies prompt “gold.” I’m working in advance, since the PD account tweeter is on UK time, close to my local CET time zone.

Pixel art for today’s Pixel Dailies required a rough sketch before pixeling. The prompt was garland, which is distinct from wreath and laurel, so you know (well, I didn’t beforehand).

Pixel art Today’s Pixel Dailies prompt “windswept” I interpreted as a sailing boat in a storm.

Pixel art 🚧 The ship is designed, scaled and rendered, despite a severe lack of ship design knowledge. My inspiration was the Heron from John Flanagan’s The Brotherband Chronicles, a fantasy Middle Ages young adult story about fictional Vikings, called Scandians.

Pixel art for tomorrow. The way to get better at a skill is to think big and execute small, so you’ll have to make it up as you go.

Pixel art. I always seem to post my images before they’re done. For some reason they don’t seem real until they’re published. No idea why that is.

Pixel art. Can’t hurt to practice portraits. This one is from imagination, because I’ve drawn so many portraits already in the past twenty years.

Pixel art 🚧 Experimenting with walk animation to see if an 16x16 px character is big enough for my purposes. I guess I want more canvas, though I know a tough restriction is good for the artist’s soul. Pixaki is sluggish and power hungry, as if I need a bigger iPad.

Pixel art 🚧 for today’s Pixel Dailies. For size reference I drew Toad. I also embellished the border a bit. Now I “only” need to pixel some fungi.
