  • I’m missing an essential insight about character design in isometric perspective, probably more than one.

  • Pixel art. I suppose it can only go up from here 😉 — 🖥👨‍🎨🎨👾

  • Exploring rotation in isometric perspective. It seems there are rules to make it seem more convincing. Interesting…

  • Writing in isometric perspective; it’s rather tricky with pixel art.

  • More isometric pixel art practice, a hello-world? It seems so easy, until you implement it.

  • I constructed my first house in isometric perspective pixel art. It’s rather tedious and error prone, as you may spot here and there. I suppose practice will bring improvement.

  • Pixel art practice. Six basic emotions of the human face.

  • Pixel art, seasonal affective disorder.

  • Pixel art based on a sketched idea.
    👾🖥👨‍🎨🎨

  • Today I turned the traced image into a top view. This will enable me to create an isometric perspective view tomorrow. The animation shows the workflow I want to use: trace 👉 floorplan 👉 isometric view. There’s some creative license with only one reference photo.

  • I traced architecture in pixel art as a study. I wanted to create an isometric perspective, but realized I’m still too inexperienced in architecture drawing to pull it off.

  • I suppose most screens nowadays are 16:9, so perhaps I should use that as well. Pixel art at 320 x 180 pixels.

  • Practicing isometric perspective with a rhino. Pixel art 160 x144.
    👾🖥👨‍🎨🎨

  • For isometric perspective pixel art sprites, there are (hardware) restrictions to what can be drawn, and (geometry) rules for how to draw. Both can be bent, but at a cost, either in performance or artistically. The clear benefit is a 3D look without perspective scaling.

  • It took me more time than I wished to create a rough animation of the same character pose from eight different directions. iPad OS clearly lacks the functionality of a full-blown desktop OS, especially for easy creation of animation.

  • From the AdamCYounis YouTube channel I got some important insights about character design with pixel art:

    • smaller canvases are harder
    • topdown is like looking down at 45°
    • horizontal and vertical lines are key for coherent look
    • clear pose beats realism

  • Today’s pixel art self-prompt was cuteness.
