Could You Complete This Epic Pixel Art Challenge?

[@saultoons]

Yooo, it's finally here!!!! Make sure you leave a comment with the timestamp of your entry, and if anyone wants to give this challenge a shot at any time, go for it!!!! All the info you need is on the Discord and the socials (links in description)

[@mr.galacticman7481]

Actually i would like to add here that the thumbnail is FANTASTIC, congratulations Saul

[@saultoons]

Thanks so much, I got some great help from suggestions and twitch chat LUL :D

[@NullDott]

Ha! I got a frog!! 1:08 Hey look, that first submit looks like mine... OMG THAT'S ME, GRANDMA, GET THE CAMERA!! Now talking seriously, this was awesome, before the challenge i was quiet discouraged because in previous challenges i didn't even continue after second day, but surprisingly i ended posting a daily pixelart along the challenge, it really makes me feel better about my art, and teach me to be more patient, i also met so much great people like Adrian, Than, Isi, Moku, and even you. I really think this challenge change my perspective about making pixelart, and that last animation i made is proof of it, thank you so much for this Saul, I'm so hyped to see how Septembit 2022 is gonna be, and be sure, i will be even more savage the next time!!!

[@stan0wska200]

@@saultoons all good! Thanks for including mine! Changing the original canvas to a square was kinda weird 😅

[@lochi__]

The most challenging bit about this challenge was trying to fit all the details in to such a small canvas size. I guess having the outlines are most things used a lot of space. 5:20 ItsJustDirt

[@saultoons]

Yeah the limited space is really challenging. Last year it was only 16px size but I think it helped that it was only 1 bit last year too :)

[@RAI-diate]

Ayy there's mine at (8:40), first one on the left Raidi-8bit! I think the hardest thing for me was the endurance factor, while also thinking of creative interpretations for each of te prompts, some hit that mark like the dragon bard :D while others not so much like the rat which was just a rat

I instantly recognized the rabbit as you drew it! Right out of the 12 principles of animation video. And when I paused earlier in the video, the animal I got was the shark. One last thing, what is your opinion on my holiday profile picture, Saultoons? The character is Ludwig from Super Mario Bros., in case you were confused.

Ghost counts :'D Choosing an art style is tough, but just try and take elements from styles you like and use them in your own piece.
