The worst pixel art ever (also my first)

.
I'm not very accurate or patient.
NOTE: I'm not editing this, so don't tell me to. Please.

Interesting, mine was worse... it takes alot of talent to draw nice stuff with plain color/pixel square stuff

You call it the worst.

You say you're not interested in making it better.

...

Why did you post it?

LOL

Cos it rocks.

So... What's it for?

Cool. A pencil with arms. :)

I was thinkin of putting it in a game, until I saw how ugly it was.

And that's what I should name it, Armedpencil.

I was going to try to use it in a game, but when I realised how ugly it was, I decided not to.

And, Armedpencil would be a nice name for it.

Wow...

How long did you spend on it?

Hrmmm.

Double post, written out twice... differently... an hour apart.

I can't tell if it's a rocket, a pencil, or some sort of animal. :/

..looking like cow tits to me...but maybe its beerrr...

Sorry about the double post, when I first tried to post it I got an error, so an hour later I tried it again and it worked. Wonder what that was all about.

Ummm... wow, it's that bad. (It's supposed to be a rocket)

Oh, and I spent about 5 minutes on it.

Which partly explains why it's so terrible.

I often find that people criticize my work, and in posting I open myself to opinions. The best thing I can tell you is to learn which crits are worth listening to, and truly take them to heart if you want to get better. Otherwise, for a first try, not too shabby. Looks like a rocket (almost thought of a crayon) with arms and some burn at the aft end.

The best way to get better is to observe and understand what's going on behind the scenes. I suggest looking up many pixel artist's works and analyzing them for your own benefits. Good luck and post as often as you like to show us your progress :D

Ya, figures :)

Tip: You won't ever create good art work if you expect to spend 5 minutes on it. (Unless you can click at 300mph.) The art I recently created took me over 6 hours to get how it is:

I don't think I'm ever going to actually be a pixel artist. I just wanted to try out the task - see if it could help me.

ppz, he's young, very young. Remember your own paper drawings when you were very young? Kids draw stick-figures with fork-hands, and landscapes with trees 'n houses and a thin blue line on top of the paper to represent the whole blue sky.
Analyzing gfx from other games is like telling a 7yo beginner piano student to study what Chopin does.. :P

How do you know how young he is? Anyway, when I was 4, I was drawing isometric houses and making them in clay, too. There's no excuse! :P

3 months ago he was 9. (see B+ beginners, page 2, chatterbox)

Chatterbox?

did you click "B+ beginners, page 2" ? :P

Weird. When I first looked, I couldn't see a 'chatterbox' thread. :/

/me gets his glasses

Whoa... loads of wasted posts on that thread.
