Drawing Pixel Art: Programmer vs Artist

[@WannibeManisha]

Hey friends~ Long time no see! Was hoping to get this video out sooner but my job has kept me busy the past few weeks. Anywho, hope you enjoy this video as much as we had fun making it! We'll be back with our next devlog soon :)

[@MarxyBasement]

Me being both programmer and artist: *confused screaming*

[@WannibeManisha]

You get double the perspective! It's a good thing :) And you can switch up between programming and art when you're working, I'm envious of that!

[@ReeceGeofroy]

This is very creative! Really enjoyed seeing the different themes and what you guys came up with. Great work

[@WannibeManisha]

Thanks so much for watching Reece!

[@Tantandev]

Wait you mean there is more than drawing rectangles? Insert *'surprised Pikachu face'*

[@thefatfebruary1063]

wait... THERE IS MORE THAN JUST RECTANGLES! .__.

[@WannibeManisha]

Never forget the rectangle days ✌😭

[@thefatfebruary1063]

[@DualWielded]

Nice challenge! I especially like Manisha's round 1 artwork and Nadisha's round 2 artwork (Such a cool vibe)! Also, I think I found true love when I saw the color palette for Mountain & Destiny

[@WannibeManisha]

Hey!! Thanks for much for the kind words! The mountain destiny colour palette was *chef's kiss* -loved working with it!

[@NeatGames]

Super cool contest!! You both did a great job~ This would be a cool twitter challenge contest. Videos like this are fun :D I didn't learn pixel art until I started making games a year ago, it is a unique art form XD.

[@WannibeManisha]

Hey! Thanks for watching :) Haha I wonder if it would start chaos on Twitter instead 🤔 Glad you enjoyed the video and I'm definitely excited to put some more practice into pixel art, it was a lot of fun! 😄

[@Juul1asGames]

Loved this challenge! I just started diving into pixel art recently too, it’s super hard haha! Very inspiring to see both of your different takes on the themes :)

[@WannibeManisha]

Thanks for watching Julia :D Pixel art is hard! I think it just takes some time to get used to. I definitely have a new found appreciation for it ever since I started trying it haha

[@philRacoindie]

the production quality is ON POINT

[@WannibeManisha]

Thank you so much!! The pain of editing is so worth it when I read comments like this haha! 😄

[@hudsonmiears5298]

That's such a fun challenge! Really enjoyed the art from both of you

[@WannibeManisha]

We definitely had a lot of fun!! Thanks for watching Hudson~

[@foolsanticsstudio]

With pixel art I do like the less is more look. But your sisters second piece was amazing

[@TylerPotts]

Haha, I loved it. Both of your art were cool! Really well made video! :)

[@WannibeManisha]

Thank you so much Tyler!!

[@dinoelef]

Well done both of you are really talented!

[@WannibeManisha]

Ah thank you so much :)

[@SnutiHQ]

Cool challenge! That was some smashing pixel art! 🌈😍

[@WannibeManisha]

Thank you for watching 😄

[@tiberiusfdaapproved5350]

really great job!

[@AmalieKae]

This was so much fun! You girls are always a blast! : )

[@WannibeManisha]

Haha thank you so much Amalie! I like editing my videos to give out a fun energy. Glad you enjoyed it 😃

[@Skeffles]

This looks like a great way to practice your pixel art skills. Very well done to both of you.

[@WannibeManisha]

Definitely was! It was fun to give it a little competitive aspect :D and thank you!!

[@MrMooGames]

Fun video! Please do more challenges!

[@WannibeManisha]

Yay glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :) Definitely looking forward to doing more challenges!

[@n8dev]

Found you from Miziziziz's video, great job with this! I'm trying to improve my art, but it's still trash as you can see from my latest video XD

[@WannibeManisha]

Hey! Thanks for dropping by 😊 Art is hard, definitely takes practice. Gonna check out your channel for sure!

[@n8dev]

@@WannibeManisha I've heard that it's a lot easier to be an artist and learn to program than it is to be a programmer and learn to be an artist. Art takes a long time to get good at for sure

[@echothecaster]

Interesting video idea! Very fun!

[@WannibeManisha]

Hey! Thank youu!!

[@Ric_93]

Very nice!! Just subbed 😄

[@krystalphantasm7336]

*Join us, the pixels call you both* But hey this is really neat! I absolutely love Nadisha's round 2 art, stunning!

[@WannibeManisha]

She killed it with that Winter scene! Thanks for commenting!

Aw thanks!! 😊

[@MarxyBasement]

I should amp up my video idea game too.. i guess i have a good mentor to look up to

[@WannibeManisha]

Hahah these are just random ideas that pop into my head 😆

[@faus585]

This is really cute and inspiring :') As a girl looking to learn how to make games, I finally found female game devs to look up to!!!

[@WannibeManisha]

Aw this brought a tear to my eye haha Thank you for watching and welcome to the world of game dev! If you ever have any questions, feel free to reach out on twitter :)

[@faus585]

​@@WannibeManisha Thank you so much! You are so sweet and kind :'D

[@YannickGames]

Haha Cute! Nice little challenge :D

[@WannibeManisha]

Thanks for watching Yannick!

[@CodemasterJamal]

I believe your sister is a great artist. Tell her, if she wants more clarity in her pixel art, trying using less anti-aliasing. Her artwork still looks superb.

[@WannibeManisha]

Will definitely let her know! We actually talked a bit about it during our review but I had to cut it out. Thanks for watching and for the nice words :)

[@teammusiccreative5958]

Gooood~~ Keep in touch~

[@thefatnav]

This was a cool challenge. Maybe you could make a game where you swap roles => artist programs + programmer arts?

[@WannibeManisha]

Thanks for watching! The real challenge in that would be getting my sister to even write a line of code haha Great idea, I'll definitely keep it in mind!!

[@PleepusPlopus]

I'm used to working with 150x150 canvas and then sizing it down, but then it's usually still bigger than 64x64

[@WannibeManisha]

Oh that's interesting to know! I should give that a try!

[@elocnat]

Programmers aren't supposed to be that good at art! Great video to see the two approaches given the same constraints but having different backgrounds.

[@WannibeManisha]

Hahah I couldn't let my fellow programmers reputation down 💪 Thanks for watching!! :)

[@jameschappfillmore]

this si super cool and noce.. im an artist and a programmer.... Actually first I dedicated myself to music .. so ... but I really liked the drawings they made =)

[@WannibeManisha]

Thank you! Having skills in programming, art and music are perfect for indie game development!
