@Yuracye: I was thinking about it, but xeno tails are so hard to pixel. :vanora_cry: Look at that tail. It looks bent. :( The one that is on my profile of her human forum, I didn't even add the tail in for that one! Plus it would have gotten lost in the background. ^^;;
I know, right? Pixeling skirts are kinda hard as it is, especially on that tiny base!

Yeah... I probably delete mine every so often.... But not often enough.
I love it so far! I haven't done the last one yet, mostly because my mind is kinda preoccupied on other things at the moment. I'm gonna get the 3 others animated at least. I'll try to do that tonight, but I can't make any promises.

@AelloTyphoeus: All I can say is that you can join me on Skype and I can do a pixel live stream for you on there. Its the best way of showing my process, really.

DeviantART is one, you can find a ton of free pixel bases on there. I had a few, but I took it off since I kinda freaked and was gonna try and quit. Pink Land, KawaiiHannah (really popular with people starting out on pixel bases), and Pixistar are a few base sites that I've found though various searches.

I mostly use Paint Tool Sai for my work, and found this for erasing any stray pixels or oopsies. There are a ton of free pixel making apps on Google play, but I can't give you a recommendation on what to use for those. I usually use Piskel for my animations, if I don't directly do it in Sai and upload the frames to gifmaker. The good thing about this one is that you can save it as its own file and stuff. You can even save the frame process too. :) You can upload pixel base files to it as long as it isn't save as a .psd or .sai file. The only downfall is that there is no cropping. :(

I saw Pixilart thought an add on Facebook, but I never checked it out. I'm not sure if you can do the same thing as you can with Piskel though...

If anything, good ol' MS paint can be your friend on pixel art. :) Just make sure the file isn't a transparent .png file. ^^;; It will black out the background, and if the line art of the base was black, say good bye if you clicked the background to white.

@ChemicalDivision: I usually give him scraps of raw meat. He loves it! But I'd cook the chicken though. He loves beef, just stating that now. -Fluffy drools at hearing the word beef-

@ChemicalDivision: -Fluffy screeches wanting treats-

@ChemicalDivision: Ok, I'll take your word for it.

@Yuracye: Luckly for me, I found the bottle file! :D But I need to do a sample of one eventually. Dx I haven't done those since last year.
Now I'm debating on buying one of these bases. One person voted for this one, and another person voted for this one. I might buy the 2nd one since I kinda favor standing bases over sitting ones. ^^;;

Lol, if only I was the same way. I need to clean my computer of old art files. I have a crap ton that was done from last year, both pixel and drawn, that were for other people.
I understand on that. :) Plus she is super cute!
I did, but no one has said anything yet. Plus they have a SUPER long list.

@ChemicalDivision: -comes back with a dented metal chair- That was satisfying.
-Fluffy the xenomorph is licking its teeth clean as if follows behind me- Did you eat them?
-Fluffy looks down ashamed- I told you not to! You don't know where those Working Joes have been!
-pets Fluffy's head- I just don't want you to get sick, ok?

@ChemicalDivision: Ooooh..... COME ON FLUFFY! LETS GO KICK THEIR BOTTOMS! -grabs the chair and runs off with the xenomorph following behind-

-you hear loud metal banging, screams, and xenomorph screeches from a distance-
Posted in THE · NOSTROMO Posted 8 years ago
@ChemicalDivision: -lets go of the xenomorph and puts the metal chair you handed me down- No! I am not hurting the xenomorph!
-pets its head- Its just a big scary kitty!
Posted in THE · NOSTROMO Posted 8 years ago
@ChemicalDivision: I CAN DO IT! -kicks a chair- I CAN DO THIS!
-runs and grabs a xenomorph, its screeching- YOU DON'T SCARE THE QUEEN! -licks the xenomoph and it licks me back-

@AelloTyphoeus: True, true. But it might be a bit on those. Just saying this now, Sapherna avis are really hard when it comes to trying to pick the colors out for a first color pallet. I have to make at least 4 to 5 different shades for the base color, shade, and line art. Dx This is a finished WIP of the one I recently did.

This one hasn't been colored in yet, but it shows you my process on how I make them.

I hope so too. The tinier ones are also faster to make, but it really depends on how complex the avatar or OC is. I know for one of those that I did for some one, it took me forever just to get the hair right.

@Yuracye: Yeah, I want to ask for items too, but I'm not sure which ones to ask for, plus I wanna see item previews of it. ^^;;
Here is the pricing forum, I'm still debating if I want to do the bottle one, plus I need to find the file that I made for that. Its floating around some where on my computer. I haven't done those since last year. xD

Yay! Though, I'm still gonna link it to ya if I do another art trade or order. ^^;; That would mostly be habit though.
Feel free too, and lol, a friend and I got this for our birthday. I laughed like super hard when I saw it. I loved what the artist put for the dialog.
Yes, I am. :) I'm gonna try my best and make all of the avis based off of Queenie. ^^;; But there really isn't much at the moment. I hope they make a tail similar to a xenomorph's on here.

@ChemicalDivision: Ugh, its not the alien I am worried about. :( I can't get past the part where I have to pass 4 people. I keep getting below half heath when trying to run from them. Plus component B is so hard to find. I'm restarting the save since I didn't grab everything from the beginning. xD Hopefully there is Component B there..... Dx

@Yuracye: Yay! I'm glad you like it! It will be a sample in my shop once I get the pricing for them. ^^;; I have no idea what to price my art on here. Hopefully some one answers.

Of course! Here you go! If you want, feel free to draw her in which ever outfit you like. :) If anything, I don't mind you drawing her in something else. xD I'm going to be adding this avatar in there too, I just need to save it first.
