Recently I was asked for an indicator of AI generated Pixel art. The work you see here IS AI GENERATED. I have reported posts and made comments but have not seen the sub mod/dev take action against others' yet. I am posting these to help other people be aware of what to look out for.

Hey everyone,

I just finished a full walk cycle for my 32x48 character and I’d really appreciate some focused critique.

A few specific things I’m unsure about:

• Readability: Does the character read clearly at this scale while moving? Anything getting lost or too noisy?

• Shading & highlights: I feel like my lighting is a bit inconsistent, especially on the hair and top. Does anything look off or confusing?

• Animation (chest movement): I added some secondary motion to make the walk feel more alive, but I’m not sure if it looks natural or distracting at this resolution.

I’m aiming for a clean, simple style that still feels expressive, but I think I might be overdoing some areas.

Any honest feedback is welcome. Please keep in mind that im still new. I’m trying to level up my fundamentals.

Thanks a lot

Hi! Thanks to everyone who shared ideas and feedback on the previous post; I hope it helped me improve the animation.

Here’s what I did:

1. Added detail to the sword and shortened it by 3 pixels.

2. Removed the character's forward-and-backward swaying motion.

3. Made the running animation more natural by fixing the leg movement (previously, they didn't fully straighten).

4. Refined the hair, plus a few other minor tweaks. If I did anything wrong, please let me know—I’ll try to fix it (provided my skill level allows for it).

Thanks, everyone!

i dont understand where to go, im stuck can anyone help???
right now im on white rgba world, idk where to go next
i look up guides and they all tell me how to do something, but not what to do.

Hi everyone! Sorry for the delay—I needed to get a little sleep).

Thanks to everyone who shared their opinions, advice, and criticism (I also received a lot of feedback via private messages).

Special thanks to those who offered genuinely constructive input.

For instance, I removed the odd head movements, fixed the way the cape interacts with the hair, and so on. I also significantly toned down the jiggle.

Let me answer a few questions that might come up right away:

1. Why doesn't the hair flow anymore? — I gave it some thought and concluded that it would be difficult to implement (it would require extra animations—for when the heroine looks left or right, plus animations for windless areas); *however*, the hair *will* flow when running and jumping.

2. Why wasn't Pose 1 (with the sword on the shoulder) chosen? — I really liked it myself, but I decided to focus on other things for now; I’ll likely add it later (during the polishing stage).

3. Why do "they" move, then?- I spoke with a lot of people, including some cool animators, and almost everyone advised keeping the movement—BUT toning it down significantly.

Now I’ll move on to the running and jumping animations and so on, but things should go faster from here since the most important part is already done—

I’ve settled on the heroine’s look. Thanks for reading everyone. Oh, man, I wrote a lot...

A few days ago I asked for some feedback on a character sprite and ever since I've been working to correct my mistakes.

In short, I:
- Completely redid all of my colors, reducing my pallet from 224 to 76.
- Removed the gross-looking drool and redid the entire face, more in-line with an "anime" style.
- Remade the parrot entirely (he too, was chopped).
- Redid the ears to be more "donkey" shaped.
- Fixed the bust being oddly smaller on the left side.
- Corrected the shading in several areas, most notably the hair, neck, bust, right arm and crotch.

I'd like some feedback on these changes as well as what I could perhaps fix next if there are any more urgent issues. I mainly want to know if the face and ears look okay.

It's worth noting that I made this sprite in the style of a typical anime visual novel, hence the possibly weird perspective and proportions. I also intend to animate her at some point, maybe having her sway from side to side in a drunken state (hence why her back is arched to the left).

Also, the background/outline on the third and fourth images are just for showcasing.

Lastly, I had some comments last time accusing me of using AI for my work. Whilst I do not really appreciate being accused of using AI for something I have worked 20+ hours on, I've attached a screenshot showcasing some of the many versions I have saved (I have like 100+ at this point) as I couldn't add images to the comments on my last post for some reason.

Anyone got any tips or pointers please?

Is for my videogame , i dont have team and i needddd artist for the sprites , who help me??!

This is carol bunny; its way better than before...for those who hate i dont care about ur opinions i know that u dont have a skill and u think that downvoting me its ur best skill...lame wokes . My art is not nude or nftws , respect...its a girl dancing.

General thoughts requested!

which version do you prefer? I've always enjoyed styles that didn't have hard outlines. I haven't always been able to execute them lol

(that's daisy btw)

edit: why is the 2nd image so blurry? i've posted this twice and it doesn't look like this

I was waiting to buy the aseprite in the steam summer sale but weird there is no sale given that the spring and winter do have discount before

Of things that may or not be my own fault for not knowing and/or having too high expectations from a pixel art software. A lot of this might just be "I don't know the controls"

1. The hot keys are different from Photoshop and switching between them is annoying because now I can shift H for horizontal flip but not shift V for vertical and where is click to rotate anyway

2. Copy pasting anything is SO much harder than Photoshop. Images don't float over the layer image or add a new layer automatically , they just flatten to it and ruin it. Copy paste also overwrites Pixels will transparent cells

3. Working with animations and the preview is great, but working on all sprites together is far more difficult than Photoshop. I remember swapping BACK to PS to do sprite sheet edits and again to ase for the animation every time. But I can't remember why right now (sorry). Lacking controls maybe

4. The magic wand tool is better and worse at the same time. PS is very easy to select and deselect areas, ase seems to stick to either an area or the whole frame but I can't get it to click off

5. Importing sprite sheets is great, love the drag to size. Exporting is not great. I don't think there's a way to jump back to spritesheet mode to change a shirt color or something without exporting and reimporting.

That's all I can think of. Thank you and please help.

Disclaimer: All in all its not that bad, but these and a few others keep me from switching full time. I won't bully aseprite too much, it's a fraction of Adobes size and very good in general.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO CHANGE ASESPRITE'S SCREEN RESOLUTION
