September pixel sketch 6/30 Ended up getting a bit experimental. Lots of stops and restarts. #pixelart #digitalart

Since I'm hosting, I'll go first! I'm Valymere and I'm a digital artist and pixel artist who occasionally dabbles in photography. Here's a selection of art I'd consider my best! I'm a little all over the place, but I really like making whatever comes to mind!

I WannaCry... thanks so much for 500 followers you guys. I generally don't make anything for milestones, but I think being halfway to 1k deserves something special. I also have a bit to say this time around, and I leave those in the comments below🔽 #Art #2DArt #DigitalArt #PixelArt #ドット絵

Hello! I realized I had some characters I hadn't finished yet! And what better time than now to post one! Given my lack of time for new stuff...🥲 I haven't show her yet, but this is my personal favorite OC: Vetur. I hope to show her off more in the future! #Art #DigitalArt #2DArt #OC #Illustration

Based on that, the mirror's angle was calculated, and then I used some trigonometry to figure out what the remaining sunrays had to be. Eh, life update, I'm starting a Master's in Math in just a month so I kinda need to review this kind of stuff lollll

Honestly I love the aesthetics of the sunrays. Made the piece so much more interesting! I should let my mind be crazy more often. That's all for today, sorry if the writing is a little different than usual, I'm tired and not making much sense XD

The mirror isn't even in the right place, as the reflected sunrays don't appear to be hitting the child's back like it looks like. 😭

I had one condition: I wanted the horizontal sunray to reflect with a -26.565 degree angle, or a -1/2 slope, which looks good on pixel art (it naturally avoids jaggies).

The ice cream cups on the stall also look kinda weird, like crowns. Anyways, I then went on to draw the Sun. And I realised that I drew it on the opposite site of where the light was coming from judging by the shading.

So I did what any sane person would have done: I drew a floating mirror that changes the direction of the sunrays so that the lighting makes sense again! ...yeah, I'm a weirdo.

I mean, my last posted art was a 1-bit self-portrait, but it was more oekaki than conventional pixel art, so this was a bit different.

I've seen that making the drawing readable with this limited palette is pretty hard (duh). For example, when drawing ice-cream hat the dog is wearing, i wanted it to make it clear that it is part of the staff, but honestly it looks like fireworks LOL

Helo! I decided to do August's Monthly Pixels challenge. The restriciton for this month was to use a 1-bit palette. I've been saying for a really long time that I wanted to try 1-bit pixel art so I guess the time has finally arrived!

Laquin
@laquinart.com

1-bit oekaki is so much more convenient than the pixel-art I usually do LOL i should do this more often, quite freeing

Oops, yesterday was coincidentally the 1-year anniversary of my previous self-portrait! I guess my self-perception has changed during this year while keeping some features unchanged.
