This was an amazing, straightforward, understandable video. Keep up the good work!
Glad you liked it!
Dude, I didn't knew I had to do pixel art until this morning and your video saved me a day of searching, you went straight to the point thank you so much!
Straight to the point or straight to the pixel? ;P
*slow clap*
@@KellySaya1 Well said, I nod and clap at you 👏
@30 Sec. Not entirely true, You can scale Pixel art in Raster based applications like PS. If you tell Photoshop to scale using Nearest Neighbor (Preserve Hard Edges) it will not be anti-aliased, and you will get crisp edged Pixel art even if you scale it up exponentially.
This is true! Thanks for sharing.
Also, in game, you can tell to the graphics engine (opengl, directx) to use nearest pixel algorithm for magnification. And you get perfect result at any resolution
what do you think , what is better to make pixel art, for some short animations illustaotor or Photoshop ?
thank you! You just saved my life!
@Ragnarok thanks :) yeah it's better just to use PS , I also tried some free program for making pixel art and it also was quite nice :)
This illustrator method is still good for final designs. I found working in photoshop first (with the preserved hard edges turned on) really allows for one to experiment with early initial concept designs as it is a faster work flow. In the end, I loaded that PS document into illustrator get the final vectors. Thank you very much for the tutorial.
No problem, everyone's got their own workflow :)
the amount of times I come back to this video - live saver.
Well done, sir. You've got it all figured out. This technique is oh-so-satisfying. 👏 Thanks for saving me I-don't-know-how-much-time.
This is super handy for other stuff as well like I wanted to use pixel art with regular non-pixelated lineart and this actually makes that possible
Thank you, I've been looking for a good tutorials on Pixel art, and your's seems to be very easy and understandable
Thank you! I had to recreate a logo that was all pixel art and this was perfect!
I just needed to align the image with the center of the artboard so thank you for teaching it at the start
I am looking at 3D printing custom pixel art and your tutorial has made the creation of the art so clear, no I just need to do it thanks!
You're welcome!
The horizontal and vertical dividers need to be 1 less than what you have in width and height.
Example:
width and height: 10x10 pixeles
dividers: 9x9
If you introduce 10x10 dividers you will get 11x11 squares.
Hope that helps.
Awesome, thank you!! Had to convert a bunch of assets to 8-bit style for a marketing event. Made it so easy!
thank you!! ive been looking for a good video to make pixel art and all of them have been super unhelpful but yours really really helps!!!
Very well explained! Thank you so much!!! 🤗👍
This tutorial was just what I needed
Thank you so much! The style is super easy and clean. Super fun to start working this way.
Happy to help.
Thanks for making such a clear tutorial! Really helps out
Thank you, TipTup. I am glad I found this one. ❤
You're welcome!
Hey, this was really nice.
I thought it'd be more complicated.
Good video!
No problem, glad you found it useful!
short and full of value! great video.
我正在找如何製作Pixel Art的影片 想不到可以用AI製作 比起PSｅ更不會有轉換大小問題！教得很詳細！太棒了很感謝您提供如此優質的影片！
Wonderful tutorial, lots of tips, thank you!
One little thing to point out is about the number of dividers, if you put 50 dividers, that will give you 51 boxes, instead of 50, so each pixel box is not 10, it would be slightly smaller.
Thanks for the info!
short. precise. to the point. clear. simple. easy.
need i say more :)
Thanks!
i always thought pixel art would be difficult. i just never looked into it i guess 😂 thank you so much!
No problem!!
I wanted to get rid of that stubborn grid after finishing the pixel art, but didn't find any site that deals with this issue. Thanks a lot, you saved my design (although I had to set the speed to 0.5 to be able to follow your speech)! :)
Happy to help!
Thank you so much for this amazing video !
great very simple video nice work thank you
Useful video.Thankyou. I want to know if there is an option to draw with Pen tool in order to bring perfect shape and convert that to pixels which exactly matches with the grid box. Since drawing with mouse makes it difficult to bring the perfect shape with hand drawing for Textile motifs (being a textile designer) with more intricate curves, if there is an alternative option to draw with guidance of grid box, it will be helpful. Plz explain me if there is such an option.
Thank you very much, I am a graphic designer. Definitely helped me with a job. :)
Awesome!
i was looking for this!!! thanks you earn a new viewer
Welcome!
thank you so much, i wa struggling with removing the grid and I was just about to give up
thank you
Dear TipTut, I was following the tutorial and it worked perfectly.
Everything came to a crawl, when I started having a lot of element, like grass tiles, wall tiles etc, stacked to build a scene.
can you please share how would you take the elements and combine them (in a different tool perhaps) into a game enviroment mockup,
without slowing down the computer so much?
Thank you!
Thank you! Super useful. I managed to make a pixel portrait of myself.
Awesome!
Great tutorial so far i have found in RUclips.........
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I can now finish my pixel cat :D "jumping jiminy jesus" XD
Happy to help!
Really good tutorial :D! made my first 8 bit art piece! Thanks a lot :D
Thank you! This was amazing way to make pixel things :) this was save my life
Glad it helped!

Thank you, It will help a lot in my current work.
That is a really great tutorial! Thank you very much!
You're very welcome!
so helpful! i found that this is easier than using photoshop. thank you for this tutorial
Happy to help.
Great tutorial, thanks for sharing! You mentioned something in the video about making the individual pixels smaller.. Was wondering how to do that? Thanks!
This was an amazing, thank you!!
You're so welcome!
Thanks for such an informative tutorial!
You're welcome!
Super tutorial, thank you!! I am drawing all day meheh

jackson campbell you can, I found this out too recently :) thanks for the info!
Teaching Pixel Art before it was even trending! 🔥
You helped me a lot dude, Thank you!
Happy to help!
This was really useful 🎉🎉 thanks
Hi! The vid was really helpful, thanks! But I found a problem: When I scale the art that I made, the pixels mess up, it doesn't keep its solid form.
Great Video! BUT...What was the music?? that tune is awesome, please share!
Within the swatches panel you've selected, you can cycle through colors in the Live Paint tool with the left and right arrow keys. You're welcome.
Youre a life saver
This was awesome - Thank-you!
Awesome tutorial! Thanks so much! (Love your accent :) ) The grid didnt make the squares even (some are bigger some smaller) and divide didn't work on all squares.. got any ideas why? :(
Thank you this helped me out a lot!
Happy to help!
One word you're fire.
that's two words but ok
omg thank you that was probably the most helpful tutorial TwT
really nice tut!
Thanks, it was super helpful 👍
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much!
Thanks!! Having a weird issue where within illustrator they look great, but when i export there are still some (and seemingly random) faint lines that mean the pixels haven't blended properly and it looks bad... Can anyone help?
getting this issue too
@@jellyfishjuice47 I found that exporting for web (legacy) as a PNG seemed to get rid of the lines.
@@Con2105 ^^^
After "expand live paint" part, right click and select "make pixel perfect" then continue following the video instructions. I found that out by accident and it seemed to work for me.
For anyone else having this problem, you can also try setting your anti-aliasing to Supersampling in your export settings.
These are great! Subscribed ;)
Wow! Awesome channel! You're were straight to point.
How or where I can get those colors pallets? They're really nice colors
thanks! try flatuicolors.com
Thanks!!
beautiful tutorial, followed everything but im still getting the grey pixel grid lines on my finished art even after doing what you said :(
You need to expand it I think. Some times there are those tiny lines that show up still in vector artwork. Making sure its expanded should help.
did you right click and ungroup?
ungroup artwork than Select colour in grid than go the select menu>same>fill color than go to pathfinder menu than click unite.
@@abealih92 YES! You rock! I don't know why I didn't think about doing this. I have an 8-bit based board game I'm creating and I was trying to figure out how to get rid of those the microscopic lines between the pixels because they show up when printed. I think you may have saved me a ton of work.
This is so easy! thank you
No problem 😊
So useful! Thank you!
Thanks mate, keep it going!
Thanks, will do!
Yes, in Photoshop is possible, but if you like work with vector for your design it's perfect! Thank you
Thank you for this video
After clicking Expand my art always have weird lines beetween some pixels, but if i color some boxes - they(lines) seem to dissapear again. However, if i try to import my pixel art in photoshop or after effects to animate - all my pixels are suddenly separated by lines again.
Any ideas why?
I've come across this, I think it's something to do with conversion from vector to raster. When you're done with your design, expand everything by 1px (think you can do this from one of the menus). Should take care of it!
Well, i didn't find this option, but in my search i found another thing what fixed it. After finishing my art i just pressed allign with pixel grid, and now it doesnt seem to have weird lines after importing in photoshop! Hope this helps other people.
Anyway, thx for your video and response!
Do everything like in video BUT, after you relese live paint go to "object" and find "rasterize" option, window will pop up and you will have some settings, in the down left corner is "Add" type 1 and select "Backgrpund" transparent. Hope that can help you, i did it that way and it worked (sorry about my bad english by the way) peace :D
THANK YOU Drumnbass995! i already tabbed into my appilcation and nearly forget to say thanks and upvote :)
@@Drumnbass995 Thank you so much!, I was stuck in this part, and now the pixel art finally looks great when I export it.
Hey, nice tutorial! I have one problem though. When I try to export the pixel art as svg or something, and then import it in photoshop, it looks messed up. It seems that the grid is still there for some reason. How can I fix this?
Having a similar issue. You ever solve your problem?
Great, thank you!!!
You are welcome!
thanks this was really helpful!
cool tutorial!
so helpful and so clear！
thank you! worked like a charm :)))
really helpful!! thanks!!
great! Thank you so much. After magic wand I have some white lines in my picture. In your picture the colour is solid and there're not white lines between some colours. What's my problem?
Same..i have some white lines changing if i zoom in and out..have you found what is the problem, and solution perhaps?
after im done with my character when i export it to photoshop theres gaps between each pixel. any solution?
Thank you! This is genius!
LOVE IT! THANKS! :D
THANKS MAN !
No worries!
Heya, cool tutorial - I have a question tho. So I have created several artboards to create several pixelarts and whenever i use the magic wand, all grids disappear from all artboards. Is there a way to prevent that since I want to keep some artboards with grids to keep working on those...
thank you so much!!!
Really thank you!
This is useful if you want to use .svg pixel art in web development.
amazing!! thanks
You're welcome!
Thank you. 🙏🏻
If you're going to be working with individual pixels, I can't really see the advantage of choosing Illustrator over Photoshop.
Was hoping for some insight on how to use the full power of vector art (e.g. curves, objects), whilst keeping everything neat and tidy on the pixel level, automagically. Anyone got pointers on this?
Thanks!
Gotta say, starting pixel art out on illustrator has not been a great experience. I'm just using this because it's a class requirement, but I'm enjoying using Piskel or MS Paint more.
My main problem has been that it seems I can only paint pixels free hand; no line tool, no select tool, no fill tool, those are all designed for regular illustrating. Is there something I'm not seeing or am I better off using Piskel long term?
You would be better off using a dedicated pixel art program, yes.
@@TipTut *Whew* I was thinking "Surely Illustrator isn't THIS bad!?" Thanks.
When I try to color, it says “select the collection of paths that make up the artwork you want to color. Then click with the live paint bucket to make a live paint group.” ????
EDIT: nvm
hey how do you fix that?
Thank you, TT.
My pleasure!
Great.
Cheers!
