    I love that no matter what medium or style, spiral staircases are a struggle.😂

    • @conqu2
      @conqu2 Před 6 měsíci +39

      even using one irl is a struggle

    I actually have a tip for drawing spiral staircases. Though I haven't done one in isometric pixelart before. The trick is to block out the stairs at right angles then add another half way between and then repeat. Divide and conquer sort of thing.

      Thanks, that sounds like a smart way to approach it! Gonna have to try that next time ✌️😌✨

    You literally just uploaded this but I wanted to say that you have inspired me to make my own pixel art in my own way and be proud of it.

    I'd continue doing non-gen 1 locations in this style. i like the contrast between a retro art style and modern locations.

    Thank you for another year of tiny squares! I really mean this when I say it - there is no other channel on this site that brings me as much joy to watch as yours.

    you might not realise, you're doing something incredibly advanced when building these complex 3d shapes in 2d in pixels. that deserves credit

    The diglet animation is top tier!!! I could watch it on loop forever

    I really want to thank you for doing your tutorials on here! Your methods and workflow processes have genuinely helped me improve with how I approach deisgning characters! Can't wait to see what you have in store for 2024!

    I liked the segment where you talked through problem-solving Pansear's rendering within this limited colour palette; a logical implementation! 😁
    I haven't seen Pokemon Concierge yet but this has certainly put it on my radar. Even still, it looks like the fun animation in this video captures the vibes of what I've seen so far - I'm looking forward to catching up on it!
    Happy New Years, friend! 🌟

    • @BJGpixel

      Glad to hear, had to really buckle down when it comes to some nice monkey designs like that 😅 And thanks, it was a fun little series, think you'll enjoy! Happy New Year as well! ✌️🥳✨

    I really love the sprite work you've done within the world of Pokemon Concierge! It's so cute!! I watch the show and enjoy it so much. I do hope to see more Pokemon places in the future
    As an artist, I sadly don't have tips for spiral staircases tho XD;;;;

    I think an isometric spiral staircase is the kind of "pixel problem" I would have agonized over for half a day, lol. I think it turned out great! Also thank you for the reminder that Pokemon Concierge is out now!

    i imagine use an 3D to serve as sketch to pixel art...this would be nice

    Btw loved the water texture pattern, really clever

    My method for spiral staircase;
    Step 1: lie down
    Step 2: try not to cry
    Step 3: cry anyways

  • @svenhegenmusic
    @svenhegenmusic Před 6 měsíci +1

    I have no idea how to draw an isometric spiral staircase, but I could imagine something like the following technique. If you slice a circle into pizza pieces, each line goes through the middle point, no matter if it's isometric or not. maybe those lines not going through one point in the middle rather follwing a circle would help a bit?
    for the next isometric pokemon artwork I wonder how you tackle battle scenes. Those really stand out in the games because the shift in perspective from top-down to over-the-shoulder. So for an isometric game you should maybe have the battle scenes be something extra aswell?

    • @BJGpixel
      @BJGpixel  Před 6 měsíci

      Hmm that's a really great way to think about it, I'll have to keep the pizza technique in mind , thanks! And yeah I think you're exactly right, the next thing probably has to be a battle. Would be neat to see the trainers standing there with the pokemon battling

    So here you're using a 2:1 grid of 32x16. Is that the most common size? Like a de facto standard?

  • @thetwinz4297
    @thetwinz4297 Před 6 měsíci

    Hi, I just wanted to ask, How do I make a shape, I mean not the basic like rectangle or circle, for example right now I make a 37 x 37 owl sprite, I just find it hard drawing the wings. And for your videos how do you make a detail sprite with a tiny canvas size or maybe like a diagonal oval. I just find it very hard to draw those things.

    • @thetwinz4297
      @thetwinz4297 Před 6 měsíci

      I didn't watch the video yet bc I want to ask this real quick so I didn't forget it.

  • @bobriquardo5317
    @bobriquardo5317 Před 6 měsíci

    Next time you do a spiral staircase try looking at an IRL picture to see how the steps warp as they go up. You made the width too even and its why it doesn't look totally natural. Like the railing is correct but the stairs are viewed almost top-down instead of from an angle. If you brought in the top of the stairs and moved the railing to the left a bit I think it would be more realistic. Of course this is very annoying to do in pixel art. (PS- I think everything else in your image is perfect. Great job!)

  • @JayFolipurba
    @JayFolipurba Před 6 měsíci

    I liked the new show, it's similarly whimsical, yet a bit more realistic and quite fun. But it confirms a few major things: for one, the textures of pokemon. The real-film with Ryan Reynolds kinda did that, but it was supposed to be real. This gave us the canon texture of accurately shaped pokemon, fuzzy, furry, feathery, skin, metal, rock, that's a huge insight.
    And the second thing is, that ot confirms the original show as a show within the world of pokemon. The pokemon are animals, they don't say their own names. Think about it: all pokemon are supposed to exist everywhere, but the original anime only introduces 150-200 new ones each part and the animals constantly say their own names, so kids can learn them. This would also explain why there are comicbook villains harrassing a random kid that travels the world with actual gym leaders for 30 years while staying eternally 10 years old. It's a show! Even within the world of pokemon

    Sprites are more limited than the background Sprite should only have black white and a single other color
    not two other colors like the background
