Pixel Art Class - Constructing a Character
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 авг 2024
- Hey, this is E3 of my new series on everything pixel art! Today we're discussing foundations of making a character for a 2D platform game, putting the previous lessons into practice and deciding what kind of character this is going to be. There are two more character sprite videos coming after this one, turning that concept into a fully detailed first sprite.
Enjoy!

This gives me such a Khan Academy vibe. It's so helpful!
The idea of a love note used by a fanfic writer sounds more terrifying then death note, idk why....
It's about the lack of autonomy, I feel
thats actually a manga.
the character who uses the love note is REALLY into BL fanfic and just goes around making random guys fall in love with each other
loving those videos man , can't wait for the next one
would be cool to have a video on choosing the "right" pixel size for characters (I saw an interesting 24x24 decision in some titles), and character sprite sheets and their efficiency (splitting up based on what is likely to appear together on the screen vs a more semantic per-character split, so they are easier to work with and use direcly in the game.
Looking forward to the next installment.
love this - thanks Adam
This is genius work
hi Adam! super cool video! I´m starting studying Pixel Art, and i´d like to know what sizes you set your canvas and your checker background (for guides, grids etc)! Thank you so much! You Rock!
step 1: eyes
Celeste characters: am I a joke to u?
But is an ugly character...
@@DigimonGaara ?
@@masterboa6321 the girl of celeste, Madeline, the game is good, but her sprites are horrendous...
@@DigimonGaara *sprites
also thats ur opinion
@@DigimonGaara Speites. so real
The human brain is constantly trying to find shapes, patterns and recognizable objects in everything we see. It's the brains built-in survival mechanism. That's why when you look up at a cloud on a cloudy day you can see dogs, cats, cars, etc., etc., in them.
Awesome insights
Hey man I’ve been trying to find your videos on twitch but I can never find the content there. Maybe link to the full sessions
What kind of drawing tablet do you use? I’m on the search for a good one that doesn’t have input lag. There’s too many to choose from lol
Love Note sounds like that one episode of The Amazing World of Gumball where Sarah got an actual love note lmao
Nice video. The background music is too distracting and frenetic though.
Does anybody know what the program he is using for the little doodles. The other program like he does the little sketchs on?
Leonardo for windows. 15 day demo, currently 40$ during beta.
New sub here :) Thanks for all your tutorials
is there a link to this full stream?
Thanks for your guide. What was the software you noted at 1:43? I am interested in your note taking in that software. Thank you again!
He used Leonardo app for sketch.
When Adam was doing the sketch of the anime girl writer I instantly thought of Toko from Danganronpa haha
7:57 why don't you take a seat right over there
What software are you using? for pixel art
Thanks!
amazing topic!!
what software are you using in the background to draw the lines?
I use a canvas tool called Leonardo for windows. It's mostly for art, but since the canvas is basically infinite and really fast, I like to use it for things like note taking and mood boards :)
@@AdamCYounis Thank you!
what program did you use? if i may ask nice channel sub instantly tring to create my own character in pixel art.
Haha, matt from celeste was like: haha, no eyes go brrrr

Thank you for amazing videos. What is the drawing software or tablet that you use outside of Aseprite?
he uses a canvas tool called Leonardo for windows. It's mostly for art, but since the canvas is basically infinite and really fast, he likes to use it for things like note taking and mood boards :)
I just realized that his nerdy girl character that writes fanfics which eventually become reality perfectly fits Sarah from Gumball lmao
I do have trouble getting the human shape right in a small space.
when is the love note manga coming out?
Hey Adam, how can i contact you? Thanks!
What software are you using to show us this? The like black window.
What program is he using in the video? Some kind of black board thing?
I know this is kinda old, and it may show up in older videos, but what program do you use to make your outline stuff? In the start you have photos and you're writing stuff down.
I have a poster board app to drop reference photos for drawing and blender, but whatever you use looks way better
He said the he uses a "canvas tool called Leonardo for windows" on the comments below.
what i do is i base the resolution of the game on the character
Wait what is required for HD monitors
What is the program you are using for the bullets and notes ?

What is the Sketch software used?
leonardo.
what blackboard tool are you using? looks like a great one for brainstorming & sketching! I'm just getting into pixel art so I thank you for this tutorial 🙂
I think it's called Leonardo
what application do you use for sketching
what softwares do you use in the video? the pixelart editor is Aesprite and the sketch editor is?
Leonardo
wut? @@keithtrammbjj843
I am trying to make sprites for RPG Maker MZ, but they need to be 48x48 or 48x 63. I lose a lot of detail when I make them. Can you do a video on doing sprites that are less pixels like this? I am trying to make it look detailed and legit but it's difficult.
With a 640x360 canvas split into 16x16 tiles gives us 40x22.5 tiles. Is this right or should I aim for whole tile numbers in both directions?
I don't believe there are any pixel / tile size combinations that allow you to have whole numbers of both inside a standard 1080p screen. You're either going to have odd-sized pixels or some tiles cut off no matter which scale you choose, and I think the latter is less important. especially if you have a scrolling camera, tiles being cut off some way or another is inevitable.
@@AdamCYounis no worries. Thanks pal 👍
Subscribed!!!!!
Name of the board like software?😂
What program did you draw and plan in the intro?
what does he use for his sketches?
Leonardo for windows
Stranger Than Fiction [2006] - similar premise.
He created Sarah from The Amazing World of Gumball. It's the same concept xd
Did *he* really made her?
may i ask, whats this program you are working in?
Great playlist! Very satisfying to watch!
What software are you using? I'd like to try this, but I don't know where to start...
its aseprite!
and leonardo
9:18 totally object your theory about pony tail's position with intelligence
3:45 saving this because I’ve got college to attend
This is some anime plot
Which app are you using ?
the character reminds me of someone, but I'm not sure who...
says he is making a platformer
actually makes a dating sim
Death note but love?
Isn't that the cupid triangle love anime?
I need to fix my shortcuts 👀💦
There is this weird anime about this angel girl who pairs up people with a love note
Oh I know that anime lol
what software do you use?
he uses aseprite
also Leonardo for windows
Just incase you aren't aware about 3 years later. There is non-canon spinoff Jojo's Bizarre adventure manga. Where a girl has the same power as the girl you draw in the video.
Hello Adam! Thank you for your inspiring videos. Are you British? I think I detect an accent..
what is the name of the pixalart softwere?
aseprite
you can get it for free if you compile it yourself.
@@saigetripletone2673 what do you mean with compiling is yourself?
@@saigetripletone2673 ???
@@keremaslan1988 it means to build the program using the source code from github because asprite is open source. Just watch a youtube tutorial on how to build/compile asprite from source.
Was there ever a video made on human anatomy and such? I know I could watch a traditional art tutorial, but as I won't be using that style I find it boring.
when he said "she's an artist" I was the olny one confused with autist :D Am I playing too much online? xD
i like your hannel
nobody going to question the point he searched kids tv?
I had been explaining that saturated colour is used often in kids media, so oversaturated colours will tend to look juvenile.
Panty Note 💀
You found something lamer then a pixel artist respect bro
Having such a hard time to put something useful on 64x64 pixels... 😠
So in 11 minutes he jus doesn't make anything but keeps talking
