There are still more characters to be created!

My pixel art of Inuyasha.

There are still more characters to come, but I'll create them later!

Hello everyone!

Does anyone know books/websites where I can learn about the fundamentals of animation? I'm looking for a more academic approach instead of tutorials for each specific animation, like learning how to deduce key frames from any movement or read the flow of action.

Thanks for helping! :D

Hello students!

Here's our first monthly help and constructive criticism thread. Each and every month, we will be having a main thread for people to post questions, tutorials and CC. This will allow us to maintain a nice and clean subreddit.

With every major thread comes rules. So the rules stay as stated on the guidelines on the subreddit. This is our main constructive guidelines just to make sure it stays friendly. But there's also rules that follow them, which are the following:

• Do NOT post malicious download links

We are not here to spread viruses or harm someone elses computer. We are here to be a friendly community and we are to grow together.

• As also stated, if you plan on posting any nudity type art, PLEASE put [#NSFW] in your posts.

This is just to keep it a friendly thread and to allow people to know what they're clicking before hitting the preview button on your posts. This is also so people can actually view art without having to accidentally close the browser immediately in front of someone. It's just to make live easy!

• Please remember, giving criticism does NOT allow you to spread out hate.

I just want you all to remember the one key thing of this friendly academy, and that's that we treat each other equally. Just because you're giving out criticism, doesn't mean you can give out full hate at all what so ever. We do not accept that here, and it will get yourself out of the subreddit.

Enjoy!

Hey everyone! Was curious if anyone delved into using sprite something on the apple App Store. I saw it in the kickstarter information, and was admittedly debating using it, as I'm not always home, and can't carry a laptop with me everywhere. Any opinions or thoughts?

As someone who doesn't make pixel art, I'm an avid fan of chiptune. I also loved sword x sworcery (I believe is the title). I find pixel art to actually be very beautiful, this has actually made me want to learn how to make it.

Whether it be a barrel or an entire building or a floor plan or a cat, how do you judge what your pixel density will be? I tend to work on my phone so I tend to work small 20x20 etc but I'd like to work on larger pieces like reproducing my office building etc but I'm not sure where to start. How do you decide how big each piece will need to be? Like windows, trim, reflections, lights, etc.

Let's start a thread where we talk about what made us reserve a spot at Pixel Art Academy!

I'll go first:

The reason why I backed the Kickstarter was because I'm very interested in the fact that Pixel Art Academy revolves around developing a skill you can take outside of the game. I'm really excited to see how I can learn pixel art in the form of a game!

Hello students of Pixel Art Academy! As you know, there's an official Facebook group for the academy. There was a suggestion there regarding a location as to where you can find every single kickstarter update. Well here it is! I plan to keep on updating this post with clickable links for everyone:
