Learn Pixel Art!

[TheMan3405]

awsommmme 

[justsoan]

Serious, You rule dude, i hardly see a video to the end without going foward, but this one i saw it all!, you rock man :D keep on

[MrRawrgazmic]

This is how powerful MSPaint is.

[SuperSalimJ]

Damn that was cool

[fullboxxskater]

habbo

[MrTestplay]

@openf1re | Hi, I've to questions: which program did you used for this and how long does it took?

[openf1re]

@MrTestplay in the video I am using MSPaint for Windows Vista (Windows 7 version isn't very good for it). I recommend GraphicsGale or Photoshop if you want to get into it :)

[MrTestplay]

@openf1re | Okay, thank you for your quick answer. :)

[Maulei23]

Look Pixel in Paper /watch?v=T1ofp-2yJBA&context=C­21ed3ADOEgsToPDskJlP5xADL347yA­xloyndfx-

[dnch]

ofcourse you can but you need to make brush, you cannot draw a line with preview of exact pixel placement, but as everything is matter of choice

[TwoBigGamers]

love you !! (no homo!!!)

[DarKon46]

Really. Go and buy Photoshop, make some brushes for isometric lines and this will be MUCH easyer.

[openf1re]

@DarKon46 not everyone can afford $1000 for some software just for pixel art

[DarKon46]

@openf1re Photoshop Elements costs about $100 and not &1000. And I don't just use it for pixel art, I often edit other photos in it. btw I don't wanted to hate, this is a great tutorial!

[s1221rwal]

@openf1re Yeah your right!

Kids go on here And your comment saved the kids:)

U know how kids are they download softwares and it cost money

THANK U FOR THE COMMENT my sis was gnna download it¬!

[Uffi87]

@openf1re You can try with Gimp!

[DorixDoll]

@openf1re download it free on some blog. If you want i can send you some good links where i got it.

[kikz786]

@openf1re or just get it for free...

[igotashield]

@openf1re i agree with you and fewk darkon64. but arent you dreaming of a program like photoshop? get GIMP for free or download photoshop via torrents. your work is amazing. maximum respect

[CloudRider999]

@DarKon46 Not really. I find it really hard to make pixel art on Photoshop. MS Paint is much easier.

[dnch]

@DarKon46 nope, photoshop is trying to antialias everything which ruins pixelart, also PS does not show you preview of pixel perfect line when drawing it, which is BIG DEAL for PA workflow

[DarKon46]

@dnch Right-Click on the brush and select pencil, so the antialiasing is gone. But... just forget it! Everyone has his own opinion, I use Photoshop because I own it and in my opinion it is easyer. Maybe you like Paint more, or some dedicated Pixel-Art software...

[dnch]

@DarKon46 i know you use pencil, but you still dont see the pixel representation of the line until you draw it

[DarKon46]

@dnch I can make a brush for isometric lines, so I can add pieces of perfect lines. Or what do you mean?

[TrueSiegie]

suddenly the corners on the roof turn round

[edallinxtrm]

SO COOL! Looks like some of nitrome's games.

[pxldnky]

I bought his ebook years ago, and its quite good but I've never received any updates.

[luis10barbo]

very good

[meromero2751]

como se llaMA ese juego

[KippurCatArts]

PHOTOSHOP IS GOD.

[Racketeerof89]

what is the resolution of the drawing area?

[TheKikitoSan]

Brilliant! I have a question, for how long are you doing pixel art? :)

[GamersDreamGame]

This is absolutly STUNNING!

I would really need someone this good to work with me on my 3D pixel world simulator. If you can paint this good, please have a look at the game on my youtube channel. If your interested to join, send me a pm :)

Apologize for the AD but finding this good pixel artists are hard these days..

[BTheBProductions]

this isnt pixel art this is just painting

[xxGreatAlinaxx]

@BTheBProductions you obviously don't know what pixel art is

[TheMinemap]

wow

[xKazaf]

I thought this video was teaching on how to learn pixel art. Real good job

[thehalorocks22]

you should work as a artist for a game called Project Zomboid

it uses pixel isometric-based graphics and they could use a guy like you

thumbs up if you agree

[alberto9911]

and i thought ms paint is useless :|

[Marion65941]

Chapeau le mec !

[Casper2245]

i was lookin for minecraft...

[Crosstone123]

WeLL... My problem is I always make skyscrapers that are too tall till i forgot to make the end of it..

[eneidpapa]

omg wow so cool



[DragonDePlatino]

This is absolutely amazing. I make things in MS Paint all the time but this absolutely blows my mind. You are an MS Paint genius!

[KippurCatArts]

Why use paint lol.. n00bz

[newbe1o1]

@KippurCatArts Paint is what is used for pixel art because Photoshop is not God, no matter what the Internet says. Period.

[HabNews101]

i see NOTHING in that saloon.. so much for that, it's a dud! anyways, jw, how do you do 6:07, where you just make a select box but it only selects the "saloon" bit, i NEED to know how you do it! PLEASE ANSWER. ANYONE ANSWER! ty<33

[Titch1234]

I use Photoshop for my work, but Paint is much easier for drawing lines. I may have to start using it again after seeing how useful it can still be :)

[WarOfVietnamHabbo]

Damn i need vista paint. Anyone know can i get vista paint to windows 7? It's very much simpler and faster to use.

[ElSentimientoAnimal]

Es super entretenido, porque te creas tu ciudad y tus peliculas, ami me a interesado muchisimo. Me gusta!

[manukikiprout]

Now you can be a graphic engineer for "Age of Westerns".

[donotforgetthis2]

where do you download the program itself?

[Rhupy]

I LOVE pixel art, but pixel art don't have any perspective and it makes me dizzy. A contradictory relationship.

[kratos0901]

Can you Imagine.... Habbo does that and other People ?



[Codz97]

ok and why was this related to my video? lol

[daking1601]

DAMN IT.. You left me frustrated man!! :S xD

[jumpstylefreak2]

you did it almost 6h? and very good job i love it

[HabboPlumz]

That's windows vista paint right?

[Kaoro17]

so, will you continue this or just stop in the video cus it would be nice to see more

[surferbrah84]

that's not much of a tutorial, rather a demonstration

[PokeNaruBleach]

Damn, I wish I had skills to make pixel art. Thanks for the tutorial!

[Msijji]

OMG on humans all i can draw are stickman... I really need to learn doing pixel art

[LolAtTheiPod]

That is very realistic! You must have been doing pixel art for a long time! You're a pro!

I wish i was ¬-¬

[MysteriousMayonaise]

Nice! I thought I had skills with paint.

[isaacuchiha05]

Que gran maestría... con paint.... Un 10...

[isaacuchiha05]

Que gran maestría... con paint.... Un 10...

[osallivan231]

you forgot to finish the reflections on the right glass))

[5shycky5mapler5]

im an pixel artist too =D

[TheSandvichTrials]

Try using Graphics Gale, its a program made with pixal art in mind, and has loads of good stuff like hotkeys, layers, proper grids and all that stuff

[Worldif]

FUCKING AWESOME! :D

[gamerswifty7]

Paint > Photoshop =)

[Cooltomx44]

Hey How to go to Pixel Art?!

[Sebas16199]

Esta muy bueno •

[TheHolyFox123]

BEAST

[ryonagana]

instead paint u can use GIMP you can make pixel art and use layers, i dont recommend using photoshop they put an anti alias on brushes and pencils

[periclesgay]

I'm really-really impressed!! :)

[AceTheSalmon]

2 point perspective ftw

[Habbo91Rem]

what is the song ??

[Zoluwizo]

lines are awesome

[morganhath]

11 people don't know how to draw pixel art xD

[Kacusahuwa]

@morganhath

hahahaha...haha..ha... -.-'

aaahh, those "2365 people..." comments get more and more lame...

[thesoundcanal]

Awwwweesomeee!

[Superhackworld]

what version of paint is that ?

[HabboKnoedel]

It looks like habbo hotel :D

[sondreixixv]

Anyone know where I can download the XP version of MS paint for W7? I hate the W7 version :-@

[IM1StealthPilot]

Very nice!

Now that you rendered the building from a 90 degree angle, time to re-draw the building from a view of 91 degrees. Don't worry, only 269 more images to go!

[OrcaineKode]

Reminds me of the buildings and stuff in rollercoaster tycoon. Good job :)

[HabboVidsable]

Nice picelart, wanna see my pixelarts? Go check out my channel! I have one video with my pixelarts, but the other videos are very nice! xD

[carameloxx]

THE ONLY THING I HATE ABOUT THIS IS THAT IT TAKE FOR EVERRRRRRR...AH MAN ANY WAY I COULD DO IT FAST..HOW LONG DOSE IT TAKE YOU?

[Funnystuffdis]

I would highly recommend purchasing this openf1res' guide to pixel art, I did and I am already way on my way to becoming a successful pixel artist !

Thanks openf1re !

[glforever]

and how did he use the eraser to fill in color only on the reflecting surface at 6:19??

[openf1re]

@glforever

make sure the colour you want to replace is the foreground colour.

next choose the colour you wish to replace it with as the background colour.

then simply right click instead of left click with the eraser over the colour you wish to replace.

[killer6468]

@openf1re This is so cool... I really want to take up pixel art as a hobby, I also want to be a small indie games maker, if I was my pixel art skills would help me.

[Nemesiidae]

@killer6468 I say go for it! Nothing is stopping you, just remember things take time and patience is needed. If your having fun you'll improve! :D

[maxmag981]

@glforever Its So Much Easy

1.First, Click on Color Selector.

2.Click on The Color That You Will Want To Change (Ex. Green)

3.Click on Color Selector Again

4.Click on The Color That You Will Replace (Ex. Red)

5. Hold Right Click While Hovering Over the Color

Every Green Pixel Will Turn Into Red

[glforever]

Question, how did he place the lines without overlaping the pillars at 4:26??

[openf1re]

@glforever I just guessed, you can tell where a line is going by overlapping it, then figuring where to start the line again and undoing the overlapping line.

[lsfior41]

now i have to ask why ms paint is so bad :|

[Tomix900er]

[annavi13]

I have a question, what is the zoom you use in paint? and the format you save all the projects? Thanks.

[openf1re]

@annavi13 I usually use 400% and I save as PNG

[thomasl4d]

@annavi13 um this was realy no help to me this kind of pixle art is ment for a distance for it to look good i need totorial for a game like minecraft were its realy close up

[mama123890]

Awsome...I really want to draw this sort of stuff...i love pixel...but its not really a learn video...u just draw em...anyway is it simple MS paint...or something else?

[homeabortion]

and then stripes! millions of them!

and why did you credit both MGMT and Junior Senior? were both of those songs in the original?

[awesomemememe]

wtf this aint mgmt >:(

[openf1re]

@awesomemememe yeah, youtube made me change it after I uploaded it because MGM had copyright over it

[KeiraaTilsleyy]

SALOON?? HHAA??

[openf1re]

@KeiraaTilsleyy yehawwwwwwww!

[Regards200800]

how much time did it take?

[38ZZ]

flippin fabulous!

[Elliottslingsby]

I love how isometric pixel art is so architecturally sound.

[PROsnipekid]

how long did it to be that good O_O'' this is amazing!!

[NomNomPlz]

I don't see you using a 2:1 ratio...

[RockMSockM7]

@NomNomPlz He actually is--it's just zoomed out so you can't see it as well. I think the only time he uses a diff ratio is for irregular angles/shapes, from what I can tell.

[NomNomPlz]

@RockMSockM7 Ah yes. I see now. 'Tis good art anyays.

[EverythingMUNK]

Great job!

[bathory1234567890]

Hey you´re a very pro!

[ThunderExpress]

Boy that's sick!

Hope i can learn this stuff!

[piroman85]

When i see this i think about... de_westwood from counter-strike 1.6 !

[DeadlyDreamerX]

@piroman85

The texture that are used on the maps and the body of the player are all pixel. You can not notice that with the modern PC GFX cards, because they tend to filter and refine the texture to make it look like a vector image.

[tubeshow1000]

ki ki eu to fazendo vendo issu.

[NiteHackr]

That is really kewl, especially considering you're using none other than basic Windows Paint. Very well done.

[duploman1000]

Is there a way of using extreme precision without too much effort? cos my hands are really unsteady on the mouse. plz reply

[ModeMan90]

@duploman1000 I think hes using tablet instead of mouse.

[serious0me]

great !!!

more than great it's fantastic ..

[summ22]

great

[stormsirens2]

MSpaint... Reminds me now of Google Sketchup *runs in circles*

[Hitheroes]

You don't know how much this means to me. I've been trying to get away from an addiction I have, and this is the perfect thing to rid my mind off it. Thanks, dude. You're amazing.

[extrickster]

Really good! :) I am trying to learn how do pixel art, and I'm also trying to learn how to do a 3D model but once I've successfully learn pixel art then I will work on 3D models.

[synda13014]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!

[joseei]

nice work.

[DjBeeThoVen43v3r]

he want you to go the website to buy the turorial -.-

[vanou3]

Oula oO c dur a faire oO

[tom1161]

is this just normal ms paint? when I select something it selects all the White in the box as well, makes it hard to copy n paste stuff. if there a special program for pixel art or a good one?

[kuandthedruid]

cool man. next time can you put instructions on? also how bout a instruct on isometric people?

[ReaverRism]

This is good for the habbo runaway :P...

[banananana621]

I didn't learn ANYTHING but it looks great and the song was cool so gj :)

[mmmmmarcus]

It's okay.. ..but I really dislike the dark black outline, it just looks bad. I understand that its just an example, but everyone does this, and it always looks the same =\ Better use of selout would have made this look MUCH better. Just some C+C.

[MrMisterJB]

Okay..

I don't see how we can learn that. :(

It's too good.

[Alleballe44]

wow it looks like out habbo but better. Great job!

[1kandykute1]

that is really really good it looks like somethin on habbo!

[DeluxeGirlSofia]

Wow, Léárn this? xD Yeah, you right, ! How do you dó that?

[talanize]

very cool and can be very good inspiration to pixel art newbies :)

[Wok247]

Dit is top, reken maar dat ik dit ga proberen. Denk wel da het het moeilijks is die lijnen goed te trekken.

[annemontess]

@Wok247 nou, valt wel mee hoor, je moet gewoon op letten dat 1 streep maar telkens 2 kleine pixels in zo'n klein stukje mag hebben, samen vormen die dus een geheel.

[LittleMissHuda]

I can do better than that . lol

[openf1re]

grats ;) show us :P

[LilStinkyDude3]

@openf1re Are you a proffesional? You should be...

[Ontoperfection]

@LittleMissHuda

no1currrrrr

[Sven2Perroy]

@LittleMissHuda prove it

[allison2049]

esse programa é o paint ?

[Quiulete]

I don't understand nothing... It's Very Fast.....

[theefernandoo]

[pedroloko46]

iMuy bien!

[giovani701]

[MrSeFaTeKeLi]

WOW WOW und WOW.... Ich will auch so gut Pixeln Können :(

[TheMalthur]

Omg s0 cool. :O I would love to see Habbo having that house. LOL

[FreshakaFeli]

wow awesome men! I like that.

[Danielle123619]

cool

[walter0bz]

look for "grafx2", opensource dpaint clone, the true pixel-artists weapon of choice, MS paint is deficient without colour hotkeys etc.

[HelloHelloHello191]

Holy Cow.

[powerlhotmail]

what the fuck how much time you needed?

[JesusEnriquex]

jajjajaja! coooool...

[WhatPixelYouOn]

Music isn't MGMT? :s

Anyone know what it actually is?

[openf1re]

@WhatPixelYouOn MGM made me replace the original music with some non-licensed youtube stuff

[WhatPixelYouOn]

ah boo :(

[DeSmurfen125]

I'm stunning!! :D:D

0_o

[NakedCreep]

@DeSmurfen125

You're stunning?

I think the video's stunning.

[DeSmurfen125]

Could be!! :D

[ThatsNoMo0n]

you should use gimp and make the quality a million times better download it here at gimp(dot)org

[DeSmurfen125]

GIMP is good for real drawing but Paint is really much better for PixelArt!! :D:D

[ThatsNoMo0n]

@DeSmurfen125 oh hahaha

[DeSmurfen125]

XD Doesn't matter!! :P:P

[Jeylo596]

Really good :)!
