So, I'm really into this type of graphic design and want to learn atleast the basics of making a good pixelart.
The shading and positioning of things etc.
Also share some awesomd pixelarts.

Pixelart is illustration, not graphic design. This is the wrong board for that.

I don't care if this thread stays on this board because this is a slow board and most of the people here clearly don't know what graphic design is, which your comment makes pretty evident. The line is not thin, nor are we being pedantic. Pixel art is illustration. If OP wants help making pixel art, the illustration board is the best place to get help. If I'm not mistaken, they even have pixel art generals.

Pixel art *can* be used in graphic design, I'm pretty sure that's what he was eluding to when he said the line is thin.

>Meh, the line is so thin stop being pedantic.
Design is design and art is art.
Design can be art and art can be design, but not all design is art and an incredibly small amount of art can be called design.
The OP specifically asked for pixel art. This board is for graphic design.
Meanwhile, 4chan literally has an oekaki board, which is, at its most base form, pixel art.

It just makes this board shit. An incredibly large amount of design work i do would be classifed as art. We arnt all
boring web designers.
Theres two ways you can aproach a thread like this. Either make a shitty comment "Hurr durr design not art" or actually contribue something and try and steer the thread in a good direction.

Well, pixel art is a lot different from any other types of art or design, you need a good eye for colour, I'd recommend paint to start out at first, it's much more pixel-friendly and faster that using photoshop or any other program.
Shading is a pain at first, and there are many ways to shade in pixel art.
I'd say anatomy/geometry is the easiest part of creating pixel art.
Pixel art is super easy to manage though, you can always see exactly where everything is and it is quick putting down colour and shapes.
I recommend checking out pixeljoint where thousands of people submit their pixel art. Prepare to be blown away haha.
I really want to get into pixel art, what are some apps for android that are good?

just a moisaic filter to be honest, iirc. never claimed to be pixel art, just simple animations, filter was added to emulate the look
