Not sure if those would be considered "pixel art"

My first PA ever!  Tears of Joy This is where life began.

I don't think it was that bad Tongue

What? You don't believe I plotted every single pixel by hand for these sprites?

On a serious note, yes they may not be considered "pixel art", but I thought MS Paint art is also considered "pixel art". My bad if that's not true. Smiley

My definition of pixel art.
"where every pixel serves a purpose"

That my friend I call a scribble.
If its pixel art then, please tell be your definition?

And if your jokeing, then its probable that I fail to see the funny side.

Made in 5 minutes; the first "proper" pixel art I've done as far as I can remember.

I remember when I was 5 or 6, I was trying to make a scene of a campfire under a starry sky in MS paint. I was almost done, and I was filling in the sky and making stars, but for some reason I kept accidentally paint-bucketing the whole sky (I have no idea how) to be one color. Not knowing about Ctrl-Z or anything, I restarted the sky from scratch about... 3 times. Then I had to go somewhere and I just closed the applicaltion. That's as far back as my memory goes for pixel art.

Nope, it's a drawing made using an unsmoothed brush.

Either that, or it's pixel art which masterfully apes the "unsmoothed brush" look.

I don't have a date for this (short of 1990-1995), but it's about the oldest original thing I can find.



Even though I couldn't use that many colors in a sprite (short of the SNES/SMS/Genesis), I could in my pixel dreams. Wink

I'm surprised I haven't chimed in on this one yet. I loved the animator. Spent many hours twisting it's nobs.

Here's some picts from my game Gravity Whip:




Actually made a game with these pixels, sort of. And these are real pixels, not just pixels for the sake of pixels. DOS MCGA, 256 color palette, 320x240 resolution. In action it looked like this:

Tho I had to fake that screenshot because when the game is running windows doesn't like giving printscreens.

I used to draw tilable pixel art wallpaper designs in Paintbrush. I still remember a big X-Files green, glowy letter X I made once.

I remember doing almost exactly that... haha, now I can't live without undo.

When I was thirteen-ish I got to a sonic fan/sprite comic community/forum. My first anything I ever did was a recolored Sonic. I thought I was THE shit back then.



Also, in that same forum we had a thread about "your first sprite" and a guy said he once recolored a sprite on MSPaint but he didn't know about the bucket tool. He did it with the pencil tool. Pixel by pixel.  WTF
