Do you offer commissions? I may have a good reoccurring job for you if it's something you can manage. Short time gig if that's better for you. Please let me know thank you!
+9🎨 1-bit macintosh art :p . The final render is so nice, and so macintosh-like 👍 ; i guess people will forget than the first games made were 1-bit pixel arts games (with monocolor computer-screens). The green was the monocolor, technology of the screens on this time.
Every time you sneak in the black cats, you remind me of those old wooden village collectables from The Cat's Meow. On each painted block there is a black cat that can be found on them.
You know what's relaxing? The feeling I get looking at this house 😁 Appreciate the keyboard shortcuts in this vid! Also, been noticing that subtle transition at the end of CRT time. Very cool effect 😱
Ah thanks dude, and hey you're early to this one btw haha 😂🎉! Yeah still experimenting with the "videography"; I've been turning the tv off at the end to get the flash/disappear, when I can remember to do it lol
@@CKTDanny Haha oh no way, well that's one way to catch it early! And thanks so much, I love that CRT Time evolved into a recurring thing and that people look forward to it; I also get excited to see what the art looks like on there 😊
I've just discovered your channel, and I am absolutely amused by your art. This is my favorite piece until now. You are really inspiring, makes me want to do art again!!
Ahh man this was so sick. I really love japanese architecture and the 1-bit pixel art style. Putting both together is pure awesomeness and you really nailed it here. The way you talk about your art process is so much nicer than a lot of other artists on CZcams, keep up the good work man!
I went to Japan last year, and man I love how pixelart lends itself perfectly for Japanese streetviews. As a westerner, everything looks more 'pixely' in Japan. The proportions there are completely different to what I'm used to: the buildings, streets, parking spots, ... are smaller and more blocky, they use every space as efficient as possible. Which is applicable to pixelart aswell I think. Plus the cables hanging across the street, blocks for air conditioning hanging outside to save space inside, ... match the scifi-look. It makes for a slightly estranging look in real life, but fits perfectly in pixelart. All this because this scene reminds me of Japan, I'm guessing it IS Japan.
Wow, that's super cool! I wanted to get into 1bit for some time now, but found it hard to come up with anything interesing to draw - now you, sir, gave me an idea to try out!
Probably my favorite pixelart piece from you, I want to thank you for being such a huge source of inspiration and knowledge for me when I was still in my early pixelart days. Take care and keep it square Brandon!
Gorgeous work! One of my favorite videos of yours. Love the rich variety of textures you achieve. I'd be curious to see how the off-black/off-white palette you chose differs visually from stark-black/stark-white palette. Maybe a quick side-by-side next time, or even a comparison of a few subtly different one-bit palettes?
Flipping amazing. I’ve been trying to do pixel art. Finished a piece and realised that because I’d used a photo as the background layer and also using colour that it’s become a monumental task to animate it. It already took a really long time to place all the colours. I will give this a try. Thanks for sharing.
I took some tips from this video and worked on a picture i took on vacation, it really came out quite good for my first attempt! Certainly takes me back to the place it is supposed to resemble, just add in an animated cat and it's comfy.
I was working on a bachelor thesis on programming games in PyGame Zero that I just finished and there was a part where I had to create my own looks of the game and I thought, Pixel Art may be my thing. So, I got your video recommended and here I am, totally loving this style and I hope I can learn it! Nice work, subbed!
This is very nice. Thanks for this video, it helped me understand the basics of pixel art, getting to know a great community (lospec), learning very cool color palettes, 1-bit style. Thank you very much.
Thanks for the video, i always learn a lot watching how you create pixel art. But everytime i watch one of your video i always wonder how much time you've put into the artwork, imo it would be really useful to add a "total time spent" at the end of your videos. I can see that several hours at least were put into it but having a clear information would help a lot to understand your workflow. Also thank for showing so many different palettes in your videos. For people like me who struggle with color theory they're very helpful.
This is absolutely amazing and inspiring! The thing is the pixelart is mostly associated with game graphics, which is a bit annoying and implies a certain style, but here we see a completely different mood.
Vengo de Un Poco De Todo Definitivamente me has inspirado a volver intentar el pixel art I come from Un Poco De Todo You've definitely inspired me to try pixel art again
This image, with the added cats, reminded me of a old game I used to play when I was a kid, «Alley Cat». I was already a MS-DOS game. Don't know if it came from BASIC machines or not, but I loved that game a lot... Congrats! Subbed the channel!
Another great video. I find it easier to first convert the picture to black and white or grayscale. But thats just me. Thanks Brandon, inspiring as always.
Very chilling and good video as usual! Can you do an analysis video (or something else) about Undertale? I think it would be interesting to see what do you think about the old pixel style used in modern games!

This is amazing Brandon, you're a real inspiration to almost all pixelartists, stay pixel positive!
Someone called my name??
Personally, I think this is one of your best videos. I like this idea of turning real footages into pixel art! I'd love to see more of that from you!
Thank you! It was a fun to make, I'll have to do more! :D
@@BJGpixel did you call my name??
(Joke btw)
I never thought to do pixel art of a reference picture😯 might try it out! Thanks for the idea!
Cool idea. Also very interesting to focus a bit more on the patterns - that's a valuable lesson.
I love how you include cats in every pixel art project. Cats are my favorite animal, too.
1K likes to 0 dislikes; that's how high quality this is. And the ratio wouldn't change no matter how many times this is multiplied.
@Michael Arnold Yes!
@@elibateman6139 noooooo
Nice work! I especially like the way the patterns represent the rust on the metal areas.
Very. I used Pro Motion NG to convert and from a technical standpoint it's 1-bit, but his simplifying and choice of patterns gives it character.
You're like a legend of pixel art. This is better than most of pixel art and it's literally two colors. You're on another level.
You know what's relaxing? The feeling I get looking at this house 😁

I see that haha, sounds fun! CRT Time is probably my fav recurring thing here ✨

Awesome work, love your creativeness on patterns. Overall a fantastic piece of art.
i love how you explain shortcuts you use in each section, it is VERY helpful
My favorite 1-bit image of all time.
THIS IS GONNA SELL A GOOD NFT FOR SURE! I'm writing all caps because I highly believe in this
A great proof that talent bring more than tools.
Vengo de parte de Un Poco De Todo
Gran video, me gustó mucho el resultado
I came from Un Poco De Todo
Great video, I really liked the result
love ur vids man

You have reminded me that I need to do many more photo studies and landscape practices
I'm always so happy to wake up on a cool sunday and find one of our videos here : )
So cool, love the way you make patterns with just one bit, amazing how pixel art is about restrictions but feels so limitless
I was literally just hoping to find a new video from you today. It really helps. Thanks, keep it square.
Your work looks like a comic book

wow this is so good, you are a 1bit pro
Hey Digital Squares Peter!✌️😊 Thanks so much dude - you every try out 1-bit work?
As a fan of pixel art games I really enjoy watching videos like that
It's only when you've done some pixel art that you can appreciate a lot of things you do (so well)..great job, looks awesome!
Wow, that's super cool! I wanted to get into 1bit for some time now, but found it hard to come up with anything interesing to draw - now you, sir, gave me an idea to try out!

THIS IS. SO. AMAZING. I'M LOOKING FOR A NEW STYLE TO WORK AND PRACTICE ON, AND THIS INSPIRED ME TO GO WITH THE 1-BIT!! LOVED THIS!
1-bit is definitely one of my favorite forms of pixel art. I’d love to see you make a lot more 1-bit pieces
Amazing.....simply AMAZING !!!
Absolutely beautiful

pls do another 'Recreating a Photo as Pixel Art' video, this is just beautiful
Wow! This 1-bit pixel art really catch myself to pursue this kind of art
This is such a fantastic feature. I didn't know you could do this.
This looks really cool!
This is extremely fantastically awfully awesome.
Really great video. The amount of detail in this is intense. Reminds me a lot of the World Of Horror game.
Thank you! It'd be fun to try some manga-style art kinda like that game actually :D
That drawing is amazing.
just absolutely too sick
man, this is so good. The explanation is super and the result is amazing. Will like to buy a print of that lovely house.

You got me into pixel art and I absolutely love it :) you're an inspiration to all, thank you
Thanks for sharing! Excellent presentation.
Great to see you work.
This channel is so underrated
Love the cats tapping their tails. :) Good job.
The style reminds me of those old RPG Maker games. Very nostalgic!
This made me smile i love your commentary, keep it up
This is very nice. Thanks for this video, it helped me understand the basics of pixel art, getting to know a great community (lospec), learning very cool color palettes, 1-bit style. Thank you very much.
holy details man
Great job translating the photo! Your interpretation looks fantastic!

Great video, I like your approach to making a reference 1-bit.
Wonderful art, congrats ! 🎉
beautiful experience , even thou it was about learning ; CRT Time was the greatest nostalgia attack I've ever had

This is so good. You're consistently top quality!

I come from Un Poco De Todo
You've definitely inspired me to try pixel art again
You're a 1bit master!!
My cat loved this video.
very inspiring. even has a buddy of mine wanting to try pixel art. so good.
Looks like world of horror ! very cool Brandon !

Wow, it's so cool to see the pixelartification of the real thing! Great job
Another great video. I find it easier to first convert the picture to black and white or grayscale. But thats just me. Thanks Brandon, inspiring as always.
Totally agree with pixel art being relaxing
So fun. Love your videos.
Take care, and keep it square. That! should be your tagline.
this is SO COOL!
Looks like something that’d go in a 8-bit horror game
I love your ART!!
I didnt search for this but I loved it
This Music is unsettelingly relaxing.
Man I love your buildings so much.
this is beautiful
Me after watching this vid: Aight, back to experimenting some more pixels.
You are my biggest inspiration man! Thank you so much for this kind of content. Giving us the knowledge you have it's amazing
Incredible work! Came here to get inspired and learned a bunch of new patterns :) - ty!
this is nice :) so beautiful to watch. i love the leaf pattern with the L shapes
Wonderful video! I love walkthrough art process videos. Would love to see more!
pixel always beautiful
Beautiful and inspiring work, thanks so much for sharing this Brandon!
Reminds me of my childhood :) Love it
That’s frocking epic
this is sooo pretty, thank you for the free stock image site, i might just do some practices like this
This looks fantastic. Great work!
awesome !!!
Looks really cool, such beautiful artwork!
Good work dude!
Being an Old school dude, this was pretty amazing. Subbed!
You’re so damn inspiring. I always appreciate how digestible your content is.
awesome content! do more this kind of video, is really cool for game devs with none skill in design
Very chilling and good video as usual! Can you do an analysis video (or something else) about Undertale? I think it would be interesting to see what do you think about the old pixel style used in modern games!
I love it!
