[Kidnemo]

Check it out, it's my new avatar!

Just a little bit o' pixel pushing that I did today. Gonna work on animating the ock closing/opening it's mouth tommorow.

Yea, that little pink ock has been my companys mascot, and my own personal avatar (in diffirent incarnations) for years now.

Used Photoshop, but I could of just as easily did it in PSP or any other app.

as a g.designer ive been trying to knack that style for two years now...w/the pencil tool in PS...cant get it down though...how bout sending me the ps file, i'd like to disect it...

np MrK, I'll send you some samples when I get home today.

I'm not sure you'll discover alot from the files though. Best thing I can suggest is practice and lots, and lots of paitence.

Number one thing is zoom in and do it one pixel at a time. And remember anti-aliasing is a bad thing when doing pixel art!

In the meantime I'd suggest you check out these sites if you're interested in learning more about pixel art:

http://pixelation.swoo.net/
http://www.pixture.com/links.php

Both those sites (especially the pixelation forum) will provide you with a ton of great resources
