Aseprite Tutorial For Beginners (Pixel Art)

[@tenprinthello8127]

As a Blender user, I salute your choice of a donut as your first workpiece.

[@saultoons]

Hahah yes this was heavily inspired by blender gurus amazing tutorials :)

[@HintOfBlues]

As a blender user and pixel art learner, i salute

[@diogorodrigues546]

The second donut I've ever made. I salute you.

[@stings7]

ahh nice

[@tanvaras9961]

36 years coding, but I look at pixel art and my brain goes to mush. This has helped a ton for my personal project I been developing, as I been using place holder circles and squares as pixel art due to having zero confidence. Shall be utilizing your channel a lot with all the good information you have on pixel art. Thanks for the KZbins!

[@saultoons]

Glad it could help Tanvaras :D Keep going, it's one of those things that takes time to get used to I think, but you got this!!!

[@wolfenstein652]

If I can, I'd also definitely recommend Brandon James Greer. Him and Saultoons are fantastic for learning, though Brandon is a bit looser when it comes to teaching, you have to know how to analyze stuff to get the full benefit.

[@HarlintonLopez]

do you code in scratch? like me?

[@HarlintonLopez]

@@saultoons but scratch has coding BLOCKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSS! what I'm saying is its reallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly easy

This is without a doubt one of, if not, THE BEST tutorial video I've ever come across. No nonsense filler, or hand holding. Just quick and thorough explanation allowing the viewer to pause and jump back at their own pace. The density is so refreshing. Pls make a tutorial for everything in existence. Fantastic teaching style dude. Subbed.

Let's go Caleo!!!! Best of luck with your learning adventure, any questions please dont hesitate to ask :D

[@CaleoGaming]

@@saultoons Thank you! I also have some questions that I hope you are able to answer if you don't mind :) When I got to the part where I had to use the magic wand tool, I had created 2 groups like you did in the video and I flattened both, but when trying to select a color it instead select the whole square with the donut in it. I tried changing tolerance and contiguous but that didn't seem to do anything either. What am I doing wrong here? Also, what would you recommend when making pixel art? Keeping as much as possible on one layer or seperating layers with color, lineart etc? Cause I tried making lineart on one layer then making a new layer with color but when trying to use the paint bucket tool it just colors in the entire thing, is that because I need to make sure the lineart layer is the top layer? :)

You're welcome Wallis! It was definitely a big process figuring out what order to do things in, and figuring out what challenges to do along the way to reinforce the learning, so I'm glad it's appreciated! :) I'll definitely be making more tutorials in the future, I'm actually halfway through the next one, but as you can imagine they're a big undertaking, so I will probably get out some shorter/easier to produce videos in the meantime :D

Hi, I just wanted to say how useful this tutorial is. I am new to pixel art and I am motivated to create art thanks to this video and I keep coming back to rewatch it multiple times since is so informative and is an amazing reference if there is something I want to do but forgot how to do it. You are of great help and I really appreciate it.

[@saultoons]

No worries at all, thanks for watching and best of luck with your art!

[@IceBr8kr]

I just wanna formally say for anyone joining in now, there are a few things changed a bit. Main thing is you need to go to view settings to turn symmetrical settings, then reset the lines on the 3 sym buttons to see them. And also, writing this at about 15:50 in, you can see he painted the green donut with the paint bucket. Tested myself to see he meant to say, turn continuous ON in that situation so it doesn't leak to the stray pixels. Thats how it worked for me, so if it goes the way you dont want, then alter between the settings. Okay cool time for bed I pulled an all nighter to learn this

[@saultoons]

Hi! To clarify, at 15:50 I'm demonstrating how you can change all instances of one colour on multiple donuts with contiguous turned OFF. I change the colour of the pink in the first donut of batch 2, and the colour of the pink in the last donut of batch 2 with one fill. Perhaps this was not the area you meant, and your timecode is off? Either way, it is shown as intended and I hope I could clear up any confusion. Thanks for watching :)

Most likely will have some more tutorials in the future, got a little burnt on them last year so gonna be mixing it up with some fun videos too :)

I wanted to use Aseprite in a casual way and wanted some good tutorial. I tried some but they were more intimidating and confusing than I wanted but you sir are the one that made me motivated into making some sprites. Your video was honestly very informative, straight to the point, and pleasant to watch!

Glad it could help AxHell, thanks for the kind words. Best of luck with your learning journey :D

I just got Aseprite. I watched your videos beforehand and while using it, following along. Thanks for making them! Big help! I have made some neat stuff by using your advice and just exploring the software. I've been doing traditional and digital art for a while now and once my friend recommended Aseprite, i was determined to expand my toolset with pixel art. I'm having so much fun. Once again, thank you for making these videos for those of us ready to venture out into new artistic territories. Soon, I'm going to make my first animation as well. I'm inspired 100 fold.

Awesome to hear! Good luck with your work 😊

Great video! I failed to figure out how to change the brush size or the canvas size but instead i learned to animate using this tool instead lol

[@tienshagallagher725]

really nice Tutorial :D I like that you went into detail on how to navigate through this, oftentimes people just give you tips on how to draw well and not what all the shortcuts are

Very nice tutorial, made me buy Aseprite and do the tutorial with you!

[@saultoons]

Let's goooooo! Nice Pierre-Olivier, I hope your learning has gone well :D

[@MrGuluere]

I self learnt it, but its great to get to see that I wasn't using the tools wrongly!

[@saultoons]

Woohoo, nice to get some confirmation :D

You are such a great teacher though< I'm new here and just getting into all of this but the simple way you explain things and the exercises you give to help us fully understand and practice the concept is so great. I feel like you're myt favorite youtube university lectrurer.
