Day 36: the sun loop is completed! can finally work on the background features now #art #pixelart

Day 35: gave the glowy aura a change in colour and some dithering and WHAM! way better... the second outline was changed a bit as well to a darker colour. Nearly done with this sun loop, just a bit extra tomorrow! #art #pixelart

Day 34: doubled the amount of frames because i felt it was too fast, and also gave it a gradient. Much better! still needs work though #art #pixelart

Day 33: Sun nearly done! some extra solar flares need to be added, but overall happy with this for now #art #pixelart

Day 32: gave the rim a jiggly effect, although I think it's waaaaay too fast. It was just an experiment, so i'll improve on the design tomorrow. Gave it an extra different sunspot array though, which helps it look more natural. #art #pixelart

Day 31: animation is hard. low on water. send help. will continue with this over the coming days #art #pixelart

Day 30: made this tree as a part of learning the Krita interface, think it turned out well but the leaves could have been done better. Starting a new pixel art piece for Outer Wilds as well, gonna try an animated gif of the sun. This'll be hard... #art #pixelart

Day 29: Broken Vessel (Pixel Rendition)! Unsure about the characters, but it looks hella epic #art #pixelart

Day 28: made good progress on the background. this thing is taking me ages, but is very satisfying to work on. needs some more objects to fill it in then can finally do the characters. #art #pixelart

Day 27: feel like the background is coming along! this is generally the most time consuming part of the piece, the characters will take much less time once this is complete. Hopefully tomorrow...

Day 26: finished the eye, i think its pretty good for a first attempt at digital art. Thanks to 'The Ultimate Digital Painting Course - Beginner to Advanced' for the lessons! Some progress was made on the background for broken vessel as well, but mainly focused on Krita today. #art #pixelart

Day 25: nearly finished the eye, looks pretty good but theres some more to do! Also doing one more hollow knight scene; the broken vessel fight. Started the background today and will gradually build it up. #art #pixelart

Day 24: Planetary Map (Pixelated Rendition) is complete. Took me ages to make sure all the details were how I wanted them to after resizing some things. I'm gonna focus more on learning general art over pixel pieces for a while now, but I'll still spare some time for them! #art #pixelart

Day 23: completed all the planets and upscaled the sun; just gotta make more stars, the comet and some extra overlay stuff. Maybe give the sun some dithering as well #art #pixelart

Day 22: trying to make the Outer Wilds planet map; did up to Giant's Deep, gonna finish up tomorrow. Also, this drawing pad is hella fun! polished up the eye a bit and learned more about the Krita interface. Feel like this will deffo help with improving overall art skills #art #pixelart

Day 21: finished grimm, pretty happy with this #art #pixelart

Day 20: beginning troupe master grimm next. Realised his head is way too tiny lol #pixelart #art

Day 19: The Radiance - final rendition. Think it looks pretty sick

Day 18: progression of the scene going pretty well, needs some background work

Day 17: did some characters from hollow knight, then thought I could try start making the full on radiance battle scene from this

Day 16: did some staves. The one on the left is from terraria sprites, but the other two are attempts at originality

Day 15: platinum axe this time, with an upscaled double-sided variant

Day 13-14: had to finish the blood crawler across two days because something came up irl Did an iron sword and made a cooler upscaled variant

Day 12: did the same again with a eater of souls and tried to make a terraria-esque character. Don't like him too much

Day 11: tried replicating terraria sprites (without tracing) then upscaling them to see if I can make them look good. Lot of fun doing this

Day 10: got a bit lost, so went all over the place. Clash of clans cannon, dog, pie and 16-bit ryu

Day 7-9: small scene of a bedroom, felt really happy about this one. Forgot to save back ups for each day so only have the end result

Day 6: made some health bars, a small game scene, some cute lil slimes

Day 5: made animated buttons, did a bit of font, some icons

Day 4: made an armour set, and modelled a can of coke sitting on my desk

Day 3: simple objects with a focus on rocks

Day 2: Colour tests on more complex shapes, outlines, small star animation and cute lil terraria bat scene

Day 1: Started with the basics. Circles, Dithering, easy animation, and shading depending on lighting.
