Best way into pixel art for non pixel artists?
I need to transform cartoony stuff into game art.
What is the best way to have it look good while spending the least time?
Basically there are two extremes:
- low res pixel art. Actually pretty hard and long because you have to use every pixel wisely, and it's hard to make curves look good.
- high res art. It becomes long because line art has to be very clean, so often people turn to vector or other techniques.

So I was thinking about something intermediary, pixel art with fairly high res so I can basically scale down normal res art, without spending too much time tweaking lines.
Pic related are some quick tries. The smaller versions are 128x128, the one above made with a pixel brush.

What are some refs about the different tradeoffs that can be made in that area?
Do you have any experience with it?

Man, just use high-res pictures, downscale using closest neighbour, fix the pixels and call it a day.

That's what I used to do when making a vidya on RPGXP.
>>
>>2814698
Ok. Do you have any idea what size did you use for tiles?
Do you have a screenshot of your game?
Because I've done a little work for a RPG with 64x64 tiles, and this doesn't work at all (too low res). That's why I was thinking of going for 128 pixel tiles.
>>
>>2814698

IMO don't use nearest neighbor for downscaling, that should only be used for upscaling pixel art.

Downscale with a anti aliasing algorithm and convert to indexed color in Photoshop for a better result.

How many online followers do you need before you can successfully sell prints at a convention? I've been told shittier art can sell at one simply because an artist is popular and that if you have a much prettier looking booth, you're more likely to attract people despite not-so-great prints. How true is that? And what's a decent amount for a first-timer to spend on prints?

>popular artists in more presentable booths sell more prints than unknown artists in shitty booths
Calling bullshit on that, it makes no sense.

Check /cgl/. They have their own Artist Alley general >>>9294367

They've discussed aesthetics and fanpopularity's correlation with sales in past threads, so checking out the archived AA threads would also help.
>>
>>2813384
all of that is BS. when you go to a con, especially a regular local one, there are slim chances few to any people are going to coincidentally be your followers online. You're only going to run into regular con-goers, cosplayers, local people etc. who just wandered into the artist alley looking for something to hang in their room. Unless you're sakimichan, i don't think popularity is going to make any difference. also, just because someone has seen your work online doesn't automatically mean that they'll buy it just because they ran into it irl.

eye-catching booth = people coming over to check it out. this will boost your sales, but if you make shit art then they'll obviously just walk away.

the usual advice is to print 5-10 copies of each. at catprint i think the price is 70 cents. do the math. suppose you have 20 different prints and want to make 7 multiples of each.

Usually just so you can draw your sexual desires/fantasies or to make fat cash. I've seen shit artists getting like $100 for a drawing and they were pretty popular, too.

Because we should not have to make new threads or post in draw threads with our fundamental exercises.
Feel free to post even the smallest exercise you have done to show you are still trying, do not give up, make someone proud.

AVOID asking unrelated questions, there is a question thread for that.

RESIZE YOUR IMAGES TO ~1000 PIXELS:

#1)
>screenshot the image and post that instead (I recommend ShareX)

#2)
>change camera capture settings to something smaller

#3)
>send to computer and resize in MSPaint

>Thread study: Try to draw/paint the opening or any other following images.
Feel free to post your original works as well if you're trash.

TRY TO BE MORE ACTIVE AND GIVE PEOPLE SOME FEEDBACK - many studies are left unreplied, which is a bit sad and can be quite demotivating for the people that try their best to improve, but are left directionless.

There are no good guides for beginners. Literally everything is either vague or straight bullshit that wont help you. You either get born with it and draw whole life to get good or you dont and stay shit.

>>2812120
Study from multiple sources.

>I've seen a lot of people draw bad Loomis faces therefore Loomis is bad

It's confirmation bias OP. You want to hate Loomis so you seek our cases where Loomis failed retards dumb enough to not understand Loomis. You can usually identify these idiots very easily because they just copy faces out of the book then throw their toys out of the cot when it hasn't made them a master illustrator, entirely oblivious to the actual concepts the book was introducing.
He adequately introduces forms and construction, he's a meme but he's a meme because he's the easiest recommendation to address common beginner mistakes.

Dude, I am sorry to be the one tell you this, but the answer to your question, sadly, is "training" followed by "a lot".
Maybe if you try to change the technic to something you are more familiar with, like pencil and paper.
You could just ask someone that knows how to do that to do that but not shit.
