Pixel art

This 64 x 64 “selfie” pixel art portrait took much, much longer than it needed to. I drew an outline in Pixquare, and replicated that in the Divoom pixel editor, after which I colored the sketch. The image is a screenshot, framed in Procreate, because Divoom’s export filter is no good.

I reworked a pixel art piece I did earlier this year in Pixaki, imported it via the photo library into Divoom’s pixel art editor, took a screenshot inside the editor, and added a frame around it in Procreate. Of course, it is expected that I draw in Divoom’s app, which I find clumsy.

While awaiting the arrival of my LED panel I made this 64x64 pixel art portrait from imagination. Alas importing into the Divoom app introduces unwanted anti-aliasing, almost impossible to get rid of. Ah well, it works for smaller panels too.

Just got a notification, arrival within 15 minutes 😊

I refined yesterday’s stapler pixel art in the Divoom pixel editor at 64x64 pixels. Now I’m waiting for the LED panel to arrive, so I can test it. 🥁🥁🥁💥🎉🥳

I found this ornate stapler on Sketchfab and took a snapshot of a side view to study and draw. I wanted to see if I could turn it into 64 x 64 pixel art somehow. The sketch took me 4½ hours, and the pixel art version an hour or so.

The only reason I still frequented Twitter/X is because of Pixel Dailies. They now switched to Bluesky, so I follow them there. Alas, there doesn’t seem to be federation in place, unless you use a hack, so I can’t but share Pixel Dailies profile page.

After a brief hiatus I started pixeling again.

Pentecost literally means fiftieth. Since it’s 49 days after Easter, it is an example of an off-by-one error. Another is that for marking 10 distances one needs 11 distance markers, instead of 10.

Apparently, genAI doesn’t know what to make of this.

It’s funny how lack of confidence can effect one’s art output.
