This whole series is super impressive. I find it really hard to step away from the layer-by-layer workflow, but this looks amazing. The tree in particular is incredible

[@saultoons]

Amazing! There's so much going on yet it still feels cohesive, gives the place a lot of life. It was really interesting hearing about the colour selections in the tree, not going with the obvious choice and defining those rules for yourself I think really helped that cohesion too. The way you make your videos and explain every detail is really inspirational, it's like I'm stepping inside your mind through that decision-making process and it makes me want to create something too. Absolutely perfect to watch as I eat breakfast, but definitely wishing I had a juice from this place to go with it. I wonder if they'd have any strange fruits there too... Thanks for sharing Brandon! :D

[@BJGpixel]

Thanks so much man! Haha yeah I wasn't quite expecting there to be much of a 'puzzle' to solve as far as the colour palette goes, but it's really rewarding once you get a good lead on those choices/logic within the artwork 😊 Had the same thought about the fruit; definitely getting a citrus vibe but something odd/otherworldly would be interesting to think about!

[@saultoons]

@@BJGpixel A nice surprise in the end for you then and a really pleasant result, these are some of my favourite colours for sure. Yeah I definitely imagine something similar to lemon and lime, but with a twist... Maybe Lemime :'D. Always excited to see these cool worlds and things you come up with! :D

[@BJGpixel]

@@saultoons Hahaha amazing, 'Lemime' it is! 😂👍

[@zorbin1125]

This video is so inspirational. I just recently got into pixel art, and I found that I am extremely passionate about it. I hope one day to be as good as this, it's just amazing to watch it all come together.

[@hopesndreams5033]

Dear Brandon, I encountered your channel only today. Needless to say, I'm subscribed. I don't know how to explain how much _delight_ these videos bring me - I squealed out loud multiple times this morning, often upon seeing the final animation, but occasionally just noticing things like _oh my gosh look how he drew that TREE_ and absolutely losing my mind. I love pixel art, though I'm not very good at it myself yet. You've inspired me to possibly dive back into it in the near future. So I just wanted to offer my one word of encouragement, as a random stranger on the internet: thanks. I love you and your channel! You're a really cool person and an amazing artist. May you always have the time, motivation, and inspiration to turn your wild ideas into something you can share with the world.

[@BJGpixel]

That's so kind, you just made my day!! :D Thanks so much for the words of encouragement, and I wish you all the best with your own art should you decide to jump back into things - and thanks for watching! ✨

[@hopesndreams5033]

_oh my gosh he replied -_

[@brandonbailey6407]

One of my favorite parts of your videos is getting to see you improve and refine your workflows over time! Plus, you describe how you came to these conclusions, and it makes for some really interesting content, even if I don't really think I'd ever get into pixel art. Great job as always!!

[@TonyTylerDraws]

This is my favorite series you do. They all feel like they could be part of the same cyberpunk game

[@AlwaysStayGeeky]

The orb kinda makes me feel like it's one of those signs, like the pharmacy signs. Everywhere in the world it's the same. So you can find a pharmacy.

[@BJGpixel]

Ooh I really like that interpretation for it! :D

[@frogman1]

this piece is really cool. i love the "electronic nature" aesthetic.

[@razeblitz2147]

I watched one of your videos last week, I have now watched all of them. So high quality and so easy to watch!

[@flamentnagel]

this video kinda perfectly showcases the high points of your style; the vivid colors and your tendency to add a lot of details gives everything a very cozy, lived-in feeling, like these settings (especially these little storefronts) are places people frequent, and a safe happy spot to rest. combined with your narration and the calm, simple way you explain your processes, these videos feel really inviting to watch, and make these elaborate and detailed pieces feel a lot easier to break down and work through for everyone watching at home who wants to make pictures out of tiny squares, lol

[@diegomedeiros456]

Amazing piece! Great use of colors, i never thought "earthy" colors could make a cyberpunk vibe. And is very relaxing.

[@JustAGuySlayingDragons]

Late two years but agree 👍

[@minorseven8134]

Just came back to this to watch it for a second time. Relaxing, inspiring and educational at the same time truly astonishing

[@a_puntato29]

yoo mans just described my like entire workflow with the color palette in advance, working on coloring and shading and everything all at once validation pog

[@Toimen]

yess!! I love the way you design buildings!

[@cbubs_art]

Yes! I love starting my day with a new upload from you.

[@yo5tan]

If I'm ever feeling overwhelmed or anxious, your videos are a seriously relaxing thing to turn to

[@MacianArt]

Missed this series! Love the two cyberpunk storefront posters hanging in my room!

[@BJGpixel]

Oh awesome, thanks dude! :D

[@minorseven8134]

Seriously, this entire channel is just pure gold

[@LEROILAPIN]

This was such a delight to watch! I can’t get enough of your videos.

[@JustToSaveYou]

The one thing I've learned from watching these video's, is that I need to separate out the different components on more layers so I don't have to keep re-drawing them.

[@shanedesomer6012]

This workflow of adding the details as you go is really enjoyable to watch. It makes the scene come alive faster and you still get the satisfying reveal at the end when everything is finished. Hope to see more of these in the near future. I'll definitely be buying a few prints for my office.

[@CKTDanny]

Another fine addition to my fav series here!! 😂 Lots of really cool visuals in this one! The way the tree is shaded is very satisfying and I actually really like the robot with the apron design. 😁 The cloth over these mechanical components just feels like a cool aesthetic! Also, the serene vibes feel pretty unique to this piece! I wish I could have a swirling juice reservoir on top of my room - an unlimited supply of my fav soda or something would be wonderful 😋

[@BJGpixel]

😆 Thanks man, and now that I think about it the cloth/metal mix of the robot kind of echoes the mixed design of the tree as well - kind of a fitting pair! ✨ And yeah I hope rooftop reservoirs catch on in the future; could easily double as a soothing white noise skylight addition to any room hahaha

[@paulomag2106]

I love your work, have been watching and following your channel for almost a year now! My 3 favorite youtube channels for pixel art inspiration and learning are yours, Adam C Younis and Octavi Navarro Arts. Each one has your own style, but all of you create astonishing and beautiful pixel art! You are an inspiration to all of us, man! keep it up!

[@garwert]

Love it. So far, all of your works have this *neatness* to them, for lack of a better term. They aren't necessarily cute, though I'm sure it plays a part in it, but rather very self-contained. Every time it's a boost of inspiration to create something that small-scale on your own. Thank you for that. You seem to really enjoy this cyberpunk-y semi-apocalyptic look - I do wonder if you'd be curious enough to explore something Fallout-related. Especially considering the sprite-based classic titles in the series.

[@ianbrown3598]

Man, your work is awesome, y amount of detail, the colors, the way that you represent objects so good with a few of pixels. Can't stop watching! Congrats!

[@Junebug223]

this man is like the bob ross of pixel art. he "messes" it up temporarily only to make it look MILES better. thank you for the tips

[@sparrow6424]

This is great! I especially the way the tree came out. Nice work!

[@TimConceivable]

i really love this one! i think my favorite detail is the subtle refresh line running down the streetlamp light. i love how you detail your thought process of working through your pieces. perfect music choice for this as well, but i still miss that little tune and sound effects you used to have during the countdown at the end.

[@ThePixelExpedition]

I love your fusion of sci-fi and contemporary styles. This one really spoke to me because I love nature and earth tones. There's just something really warm and gentle about this one.

[@BJGpixel]

Thanks so much dude! I think it was really beneficial getting that colour palette sorted out before starting; it gave the earth tones a chance to influence the design :D

[@ThePixelExpedition]

@@BJGpixel Well it worked out wonderfully. How did you go about making your pallet? Did you just eyeball colours, or do you have a process for adjusting various values like hue and saturation to get what you want. Still learning how to make my own palettes. Any insights would be great! Thanks!

[@BJGpixel]

@@ThePixelExpedition I usually start by selecting a range of greyscale values to plan out the light-to-dark ramp that way, and then blend colour on top of those values (and a final adjustment of hue/sat as desired). It's a bit convoluted, but it works out for planning your desired contrast. Here's a vid with that workflow: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpW7oYh_drmthZI For larger palettes I'm doing this same process but for different colour ramps. Hope that helps! :D

[@ThePixelExpedition]

@@BJGpixel Awesome! Thanks for that explaination and the video reference!

[@emiguerreroc6725]

Dude i discover ur channel today and im just MINDBLOOOOWW of everything.. all ur work is freaking amazing, what a great series and videos, im learning from scrap but i really like pixel art and renders. Greetings from Venezuela

[@conqu2]

Man do I love this channel. Superb, as usual - this is such a great series.

[@DadVader]

Yay! Sunday coffee time! 🤘😍🤘 Update: Awesome as alywas. So many details in such a "small" pictures. I love your attention to detail 🔥

[@BJGpixel]

Wooo coffee time! ☕️ ✨ Thanks dude, the detailing is always my favourite part of this series of artwork! 😁

[@DadVader]

@@BJGpixel This is something I need to learn from you. To not rush to finish drawing asap but focus and add details because this is what's spice up your art ☺️

[@BJGpixel]

@@DadVader Yeah it's where I find a lot of the joy in it too! The tough part is creating the foundation (in this case, deciding on the structure and architecture elements) - and then getting to decorate that after is the fun part! :D

[@dianarojo-jewell4070]

I'm an artist, but pixel art is one of those categories that always blows my mind with how difficult it is to me. And then he goes and animates it?? Wow

[@MrRemmington]

Simply watching your approach to a a piece is so damn inspiring because they truly come out gorgeous

[@Frostbyte-Game-Studio]

your art style is amazing it makes me happy someone this talented is explaining his art to other people

[@nittayoshifumi8252]

man the crt looks so dreamy, its brilliant

[@henodude7804]

Loved seeing you do the coloring on this one.

[@ColinTedford]

Cyber-tree is such a great idea. XD Really digging the soundtrack, too. The sloshing juice, unfortunately, in the early process I saw as a rotating solid object (with a wavy top edge) and couldn’t shake that illusion. Lovely piece.

[@ehad1753]

I really loved this piece Brandon, seeing it just makes me happy, I want to have this as a wallpaper

[@jamleechstudios]

Such an amazing piece. I love your work. Really love the colour pallet on this one too

[@DarksTunes]

I like how the juice bot guy looks like a mix between pathfinder and a small weapon energy from megaman. Very nice work!

[@lwilso9152]

Gosh I love the smoothie animation!

[@tomasmcintyre761]

This looks so good! Every time you upload I know there's gonna be a stunning work of art!

[@cool.keillor]

Love your videos!! The art you make is great

[@RedTalon902]

This is incredibly awesome! Every one of these videos is so inspiring 🙏

[@glitch9862]

IT'S SOO SATISFYING TO LOOK AT... ESPECIALLY WITH THE ANIMATIONS

[@robertjohnson9187]

Your work is great inspiration for a newb to create sprites on Pico-8!

[@danielquebedeaux1835]

Fantastic series, don't stop!

[@Barquevious_Jackson]

Cyberpunk and Juice-Bar, what a clash. Kind of tone deaf right? I mean Cyber Punk is typically defined by it's urban wilderness, a world so complicated and developed that the humans living in it are like animals in a habitat beyond their control, a juice bar would be such a nice thing it would stick out between the striking poverty of everything else. Skyscraper complexes with millions inside them, busy neon lit markets built from crumbling infrastructure, a trendy juice bar where people hang out and drink juice. IDK man, maybe in a rich neighborhood that isn't too different from the rich neighborhoods of today. Edit : Despite my genre geeking you've made beautiful art as always, I feel like a gain a new appreciation for color and line work when I watch your work.

[@ToThePowerOfFour]

That tree is incredible

[@Jeannek4493]

Wow this is just spectacular. I loved watching this

[@EliasSchnetzer]

CRAZY! It looks amazing!

[@NobodyAtAll420]

🗣It's like a pixel art lava lamp. The CRT time really made this one look nice. 🕵 Great art as always.

[@cuboidgamez7577]

Holy this entire speedpaint makes me inspired to draw at 1am

[@thatonewaff2552]

I vibe w the tree a lot, good shit as always

[@Cryptozoology]

Love this series!

[@4eyedblaccat]

super cool !!! i always learn a lot from watching you work !!!

[@levinhale8584]

i love this cute shops series! youre so good!

[@sanstheelumbu]

Love your vids brandon

[@iimdone]

ive never known how pixel art is made, so this is pretty cool :o

[@TV4ELP]

After over 2 years of not doing any pixel art i now really want to get back into it. I am nowhere near as skilled as you (yet :p) but i will never get better if i don't try. Thanks for making the videos

[@Fred79444]

Spectacular work!

[@okaygecko]

delightful💘 i love your channel! !

[@RetroGearASMR]

Well thats... fantastic! The only thing i can say is: this is fantastic!

[@PineappleJB]

I feel like you should develop a game with these art pieces

[@yasuo4506]

I love this series. Can u make a playlist of all the cyberpunk storefront video pls? I found only 2 of it in ur channel, or is that all?

[@SirBunlop]

I love all the architecture ones

[@okarbb5800]

Love your vids!

[@druidofpies]

I really want some juice right now edit: just had some freshly squeezed orange juice and it hit the spot harder than any spot that has been hit before in my life

[@frosty_rabbid]

Oooooohhhh I really like the palette :0

[@cutthroatjoe3696]

This could make for a really cool wallpaper

[@ariibee_]

if you just combined all the crt time footage i could watch that for hours

[@svenhegenmusic]

I'd love to see your take of dialog cut scenes. May I suggest recreating the "hello there" scene from star wars in pixel art?

[@BJGpixel]

Haha that'd be perfect! 😂 I loved seeing that within the Ep III game for the GBA, and it'd be fun to try a new take on that exchange :D

[@crit_cannon1090]

outstanding work man. what do you use for your time lapse?

[@Adamthekirb21]

If I were you I would have added a smear frame to the robot looking around and it would have matched whenever the juice machine had a small wave (loved the video its so cool

[@mr_owl0073]

Do you use a mouse or a tablet to draw? Great video and artwork btw!

[@pixelsbykris5494]

Idk if you found out already, but he actually uses his laptop's trackpad. He's mentioned it's for convenience if he wants to move around, he doesn't gave to lug too much stuff around.

[@Retrofire-47]

Can i ask how you managed to make a modification-by-modification time-lapse? Very cool

[@casimons92]

This is amazing.

[@raphael9104]

Super cool !

[@inspirion5500]

Hi I am a fan of your videos!

[@KaroTaro-]

Потрясающе благодарю тебя 😌

[@azaresxxx4738]

Can you make an analysis of eastward pixel art, I'm trying to figure out, it's some kind of a 2.5D with pixel, by also paint for other sprites please help 🙏

[@ladygemm]

I need to learn how to do this, its amazing

[@sagimishevski5360]

If I want to make pixel art for printing, do I have to start working on a 300 dpi canvas from the very beginning of the process? Thanks :)

[@abdoulraoufgambo]

thank you so much !! please i want to know the relation between canvas size and character size

[@bennyfrohna7675]

"a self-sustaining tree" so...a tree? lmfao. this is not a diss i just fw ecology and i thought that remark was funny. i love your work

[@jkeyloop7772]

How long does it take to do all this?. Your creations are very professional ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@ProducerX21]

I wish I had time during my day to sit and try to pixel art

[@eboatwright_]

I really like this one! :D

[@SalimEl-othman]

Would you recommend using Adobe or another program to make this type of art?

[@alifhunter]

this is also sick

[@eddiereflux]

The background music is on point. Who is it please?

[@Jazz861]

Amazing!

[@onkao6570]

Guys when you use transform tool change the object size/shape, it's become blurry.. how to fix this ?

[@RockmanTr]

Impressive ❤️👍🏼

[@axolotly6410]

WOW 😍
