[@artmanoil]

I went back in time and posted this before it came out. im a magician believe it or not. subscribe. Also give me tutorial ideas for things that you might want to learn. ignore the sneeze voice. i had a cold 2 months ago.

[@artmanoil]

also this is the first video ive made so tips for editing and stuff is super duper awesome

[@artmanoil]

or at least one that isnt a timelapse lmao

[@Nutellagott]

Can you make a tutorial on colors, cuz i just always use palettes since im scared of picking colors myself 🐔

[@artmanoil]

@@Nutellagott ooo that could be super fun

[@MoButt-qu2bh]

I agree with nutellagott that you should definitely do a tutorial on creating and using color.@@artmanoil

[@PixelPapiOfficial]

Subscribed, youre definitely a seasoned artist! It shows all over

[@artmanoil]

@artmanoil thank you for the tutorial hit KZbinr Art Man Oil artist of hit game Spent Shells

[@Daanootje36]

What a banger pixel art video!

[@artmanoil]

thank you very much! Im glad you liked it :D

[@MoButt-qu2bh]

Single best first video ever

[@artmanoil]

ty lol its my... 4th? but the rest are timelapses so they probably dont count

[@Thyflooder]

dude that was a banger tutorial, fantastic quality too. on another note this video have been quite helpful as i have had a block in my art for a long while trying to figure out how to use colour, ive learnt so much on it but yet just cant make that jump, i thought i learnt abit about texturing and can get the idea pretty well but never have i thought or heard about clustering, that seems like a fantastic idea of how i might be able to start making my projects feel more believable so massive thanks and i cant wait for the next vid you make!... also sorry for the long message lol, just this was something new that i didnt expect ( :

[@artmanoil]

Ty :D im super happy you liked the tutorial and ty for the long comment they make me super happy (i spent a month and a half on the video so im glad it helped lol) but clustering should definitely help. You can find out alot about clusters in general if you look around on websites like Pixeljoint! Im thinking about making the next video in 3D since that seems super fun, but the topic will probably be about colours since alot of people are asking about that. To help you out right now though think of colours as greyscale, every colour has a value, aka. grey or black or white, and by thinking of colours in greyscale itll help to make contrast better and make more sense in general! I reccomend also spending some time looking at colour theory stuff since that can be pretty tricky, I learned from channels like Proko so that can be a super good starting point, hope this helps :D

[@Thyflooder]

@@artmanoil thx man , truthfully this helps gratefully, and damn that sounds like alot of effort so well spent, i cant wait for the next, its gonna be a blast, so when you say 3d, do you mean like for how you explain things? Or it will be about 3d and colour? Either way they both sound quite fun too watch 😎

[@artmanoil]

@@Thyflooder oh i mean im going to animate it in 3d

[@artmanoil]

i recently picked up blender about... 2 weeks ago? around 2 weeks ago and its super fun

[@Thyflooder]

@@artmanoil now that sounds like alot of fun, cant wait too see how it works 😎, i did try doing 3d for alittle myself.. i was horrible to be exact

[@RockyMulletGamedev]

Very artsy arting art by the art man.

[@Neyth98]

I love this man 😩🤝

[@Drewsnatcher]

Great watch! Clusters don't come up enough in beginner tutorials so it was a great inclusion.

[@artmanoil]

ty :D i almost NEVER find clusters in anything its awful lmao, the next one will probably have better stuff though :D

[@Drewsnatcher]

@@artmanoil :o can't wait to see it!

[@quiethiYour999ping]

some good resources are articles and forums... thats where i first learned about clusters

[@Drewsnatcher]

@@quiethiYour999ping true! the pixeljoint forumns or pixelparmesan are rly good spots for info (even if i'm not rly a fan of pixelparmesan's ai takes)

[@cbpostservice]

You showed up on my feed again and it was nice. I was like HEEEEYYY IT'S THE SQUISHY DRED DUDE!

[@Andre9913_]

🦎Amazing Video🦎 ♥

[@artmanoil]

ty anders :D

[@donutto4]

ANDRE!! GIVE ME ALL YOUR MONEY!

[@CrankingThatHog]

wow this video is so well edited!

[@michaelhauser6523]

hey, how do you scale your pixel art up, for your vids?

[@artmanoil]

oh i just export it in 800% size, and then import it into davinci resolve

[@darealpummel]

I LOVE THIS!

[@artmanoil]

why thank you!

[@highstakes5260]

Very good video 👍...... however, did i spot an among us cluster during your cluster examples?

[@artmanoil]

I may have put it there may not have the world will never know

[@messhia-i9v]

Can you make a vidio about sprite design.

[@artmanoil]

that sounds interesting!

[@SweetTea14]

You should try doing an art devlog for Spent Shells. Maybe similar to another game-dev channel O and Co Games and how they bounce from and to a developer point of view and a view form the artist?

[@artmanoil]

that could be neat, ive been super busy with school but I could try over the summer :D

[@SweetTea14]

@@artmanoil Oh wow you answered fast. Thanks for taking this into consideration. I love your art btw which is why I wanted an in depth look on how you made it.

[@Alejandro-v7r]

Make a animating guide, some tips to help out in animating our pieces, like more especificst

[@artmanoil]

that sounds like it could be fun to make

[@Alejandro-v7r]

@@artmanoil yea Ives noticed how good you are at animating pixel art, would be really nice to give us a animation guide

[@Fiv5XD]

Can you make a character tutorial Like the clothes the animation like that

[@SleepyLazyPanda]

thank you! Could you please provide the links for the artists you recommend @ 3:46 ?

[@atlasvoidx]

Starting to get back into pixel art and this is so helpful. Also idk if it’s intentional but 1:25 the purple cluster looks like among us lol

[@Alejandro-v7r]

Please make a detailed animation tutorial plsss

[@eboatwright_]

1:24 vote purple

[@redrustgame6646]

Its a great video but you are muffling words so much :)

[@artmanoil]

This was the first time i ever edited a video so the audio is SUPER rough, later tutorials will definitely have significantly better audio though. turns out that my voice is just so BASSY that doing a bass boost when eq'ing it was just causing my voice to be more muffled lol

[@nTu4Ka]

Cool arts but really difficult to catch the essence from the videos. Videos sound more like "I know something" rather than "This is how it's done".

[@nTu4Ka]

Also low res font difficult to decipher.

[@artmanoil]

I mainly talk about what things are less than how its done, because art as a whole isn't something with a set way to do things. But if I suggest things to know and think about, then it helps stimulate thoughts and ways to use the concepts I'm providing. People don't really improve at stuff they don't understand the basics of I feel

[@artmanoil]

@@nTu4Ka thats more personal preference for the font. no offense but I prefer to go for my preferred aesthetic, even though I do see the thought behind what you say. please provide reasons next time though if you do have critique :D
