mannequin

Make it the mannequin from ultrakill

[Khoi_Pham]

nvm, I found one, I guess.

Guys, does anyone know which touch pen is the best at a cheap price (in 5 to 10 dollars)?

[Hong_Jooni_Pooni]

Buy muji pens, I really like em

[Hong_Jooni_Pooni]

I also have these dirt cheap ones I use for drawing

[Khoi_Pham]

In case you don’t actually understand, when I said “touch pen”, I tried to mention you guys about the stylus pen (I said “touch pen” because I didn’t know the word “stylus” was really existed). Besides, I didn’t find any stylus pen in you was recommend to me.

[Hong_Jooni_Pooni]

oh. Im sorry then I misunderstood

[BeesyBee]

My three witchies. I may color them. . . One day.

You should avoid using mixels (different sized pixels) in the same piece

[Khoi_Pham]

Most of them is only 1 pixel size

[Agent_Y]

The envelope thing is using pixels that are a quarter the size of the pixels you used for the rest, this makes it look like it’s not supposed to go together

[Khoi_Pham]

But why is it not supposed to go together? I don’t really understand.

[Hong_Jooni_Pooni]

You may think it looks better in the editor when looking at a singular sprite, but pixel size inconsistencies look really really bad when there are different sprites in place

[Khoi_Pham]

Does this actually look bad (the sprite I drew at the right side)?

[Agent_Y]

See that looks better, when I said “together” I meant like fit together in the same game

[Khoi_Pham]

That lil guy is for only 1 game after I don’t remind you guys about my 2 old games.

[Hong_Jooni_Pooni]

Ya that looks pretty bad for 2 main reasons
A. The sword has an outline as the background?? That doesn’t really make sense to me
B. The sword has a much larger pixel size than the character

For B, the pixel size thing may not really matter if and only if the sword is a background object and you make a distinct difference between the foreground and background, but there aren’t sufficient sprites in place for me to know now

[Khoi_Pham]

Yes, the sword is the background so that’s why it’s very big. The reason is the sword was the part of the main story of the game that I don’t finish yet.

[paisleypug]

but why is the pixel size different? it looks awful when you use inconsistent pixel sizes

[paisleypug]

i know it’d take a lot of time to draw out that large of a sprite at purely pixel size 1 without resizing it, but it’d look so much better
