I make stuff out of nothing

Heads are going to roll. No idea why.

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe was written by C.S. Lewis in 1950, which is 75 years ago. Good enough reason for me to be rereading the entire book series The Chronicles of Narnia. I already read The Magician’s Nephew before going to sleep in the past weeks.

Serving smoothies endlessly on my Pixoo-64 64 x 64 pixel art frame. Drawn in Procreate on an iPad.

I drew this stylized head of B.A. Baracus of the 1980s hit series The A-Team, played by Mr T.

It seems the basis of good 2D animation is solid drawing skills. Without it, the result will be poor, or, at best, occasionally hit, but mostly miss. I know where to spend my time in the coming months. I only hope I don’t lose my Divoom Master Pixel Artist status with still images.

I made a rough animation in the Animatic app on iPad and traced the frames into a pixel animation with Pixaki. It took much longer than I expected, but I’m pleased with the (very rough) result running on my Pixoo64 LED panel.

I’ll be running a marathon on 13 April 2025. It almost didn’t happen because of injuries, which only healed a week ago. To celebrate in advance I made this jumble of legs, arms, and a confused head. Its animation lives on the Divoom community, where I became a master pixel artist, also this week.

Using Quick Poses I found a reference for a pose. After pixeling the nude I put some clothes on her to avoid flagging on the Divoom community. BTW, it wasn’t quick at all.

A larger piece, and Fate/Apocrypha fan art. I know I can do better, if I weren’t so out of practice. I also might have traced a little to get it done, after spending more than 12 hours on it today,

It’s been a while since I posted some pixel art on here, while I’ve been inundating the Divoom community with my creations, being mostly recommended by the staff. I don’t judge it high art, but I can see why they want to see more of it. Most don’t seem to post anything, or at best it’s low-effort.

The @pixeldailies.bsky.social #PixelDailies theme was #ladder Link has to climb the ultimate infinite ladder.

I suppose if you always play it safe (read: draw for more likes), you will never learn new things, and keep repeating old things until you’ve bored and stop creating. For me, this is a place of experimentation, finding your artistic limits, go beyond them, then dial back a bit.

I started a new project in Procreate for pixel art. I already made a rough sketch and applied base colors (white, green and light-brown). It will become a 64 x 64 pixels piece for my Pixoo64. It’s been a while since I did a landscape, so it will be a challenge to finish it. Here’s a WIP.

Here's the process video of the pixel portrait of Jean-Luc Picard.

[supercali]

I hand-made a pixel portrait of captain Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek TNG, using Procreate.

I tweaked yesterday’s still pixel art thoroughly, so I think it got more “readable.” Next I did some simple animation, since that’s preferred, apparently, in the Divoom community.
