we are allowed to post them early now, so here are my frames for the 'every frame matters - against the wall' collab. will let u know when the video is posted :--3
honestly i kept claiming more frames when i could but the first one took so long and totally wiped me out from the level of detail. so i got a bit lazy in the end

How do you get your pixel art to look at nice on social media? Your stuff is always crystal clear and perfect.
Even when I use the dimensions people recommend the images turn super fuzzy when I upload them.
i'm not sure, i never upload specfic dimensions or anything. are you saving as jpeg instead of png? or are you exporting with bilinear scaling instead of nearest-neighbour?
certain sites like instagram just jpeg and crust up your art no matter what you do. the most likely explanation is something went weird in the export, what does it look like after you export, in your files?

First off, I love seeing your work pop up on my dashboard! Secondly, I’m interested in giving Pixel Art a try. Reminds me of the days editing avatars on The Palace chat client. What canvas size do you suggest for someone just starting out and doing some basic objects?
awesome !! thank you!
i would recommend either 16x16 or 32x32 as a base. it might feel easier to go bigger at first but you can learn a lot from doing tiny stuff.
here are the stardew valley items so you can see the game uses 16x16 tiles and makes them double height if they're tall!

do you have any tips or tricks for aseprite? I’m fairly newish to it and am still trying to learn the basics of pixels art. Specifically, do you have anything for blending pixels together or giving the illusion of blending, as well as any tips for dithering? I adore your pixel art and it’s given me the motivation to try at it again after dropping it off years ago. You’re incredibly skilled!
thank you!!!
for blending, instead of using a blur tool we do something called manual Anti-Aliasing, here is a video on the topic. i mostly use either 1 colour AA or 2-colour AA
No AA // 1 colour AA 2 colour AA // 3 Colour AA U can do even more colours in the AA btw!! theres no limit but it does get more blurry and soft so beware
I would typically do something like the bottom left, using 2 colours, but they all look different in context. i would advise you to use the preview window and see how it looks at the small 1x view, AA can really change the silhouette of something
BTW ANTI ALIASING IS ALL PREFERENCE !! PLS DOT THINK I AM AN EXPERT I JUST LIKE DOING IT THE WAY I DO IT, PLS EXPERIMENT !!!
for actual colour blending i typically take the eyedropper tool to select my base colour and make the transparency of it 50%.
then i will draw over the colour i want to blend with then colourpick the middle colour i do that all the time and change the hue just a tiny bit
anti alias or add more colours where you would typically blur or blend in painting and leave everything else more sharp, be mindful of your hard and soft edges
hope that helps !! u shoudl check out more of mortmorts videos his stuff really helped me when i was starting out! he has one for dithering i believe (im not really a dithering artist myself so maybe he can be more helpful)
