I’m not super advanced in my own pixel art, but I think the best advice I’ve ever heard for what scale to pixel at is that the smallest detail I want to represent is one pixel big. I’m bad at estimating measurements, so recently I’ve been starting with what I expect to be the smallest detail of the piece and then scale my sketch around that to find the canvas size.

@saultoons2 жыл бұрын
Yo Pip, no accurate time estimate unfortunately as I worked on this off and on, learnt isometric art from scratch while making the tutorial video, and worked sometimes on stream which slows the process down significantly. I would say it's possible for me to achieve something like this in ~6-8 hours though, but I could be well off also :'D In terms of speeding up workflow, I think it helps to refine your process as much as possible, have a set pipeline of working every time to reduce the possibilities of going off a tangent, and get a lot of finished pieces under your belt going through that process. Over time you will notice ways to speed up, or areas that generally take a little longer than expected :) Thanks for watching Pip!
