Learn to Draw PS Sprites

[HTD]

Tutorial One:

Getting Started

Step 1.

Open MS Paint and Save a new page as "Work" save the file type as PNG.
This is very important if we want the image to be crisp and not ruined.

Make the background color pink using the Fill icon and select pink.

Step 2.

Use the paint brush tool and select the smallest square (1 pixel in size).





Now you are ready to go for broke!

Lets begin....

I think threads like this should be sticky. Really. Great guide for beginners. *thumb up*

It's good, but only shows the head. It needs a body, otherwise it'll float around the screen on its own! D:

(in other words, keep up the nice work HTD! I can see this being very helpful to people who are new to spriting)

[HTD]

I do plan on doing more but at the moment, the demand on the topic hasnt been good, therefore it will be on the bottom of my list to finish.

Dont worry I havent forgotten though.

I DEMAND YOU MOVE THIS PROJECT UP ON YOUR LIST!

Seriously, dude... Wth!? Don't get us all excited with the head, then turn around like "Yeah, no body for a few months." You totally suck! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Alright more by the end of the week

Thas the spirit!! Good lookin', bro... In result, I will make a ton of Phantasy Star Sprites! I'll be sure to give you props on each one!

No need, just make them good and spend time using the limitations to craft good characters.

I think you should make a youtube video on this, you have an exceptional talent and could help out lots of people.

This is awesome! Hope to see the next tutorial!

*sticky*

[LegoMuskCat]

Since this IS a sticky, those tutorials better keep comin'!

[HTD]

For now I will just stay with the thread.
I am working on a Fan Game so that has to come first but, I'll upload a new tutorial tonight.

As for a youtube video, Id need advice on how to record from a pc, as I have no skill with such things.

[Edge]

Google teaches you how to do ANYTHING, you can even learn how to make crack from cocaine via Google... Sadly, I'm serious.

[HTD]

Updated, please read the chart and give me examples.
I hope it is clear, let me know if it isn't and I will go back to the old method.

I wanna see a lady done! 8D
