I live how you make your videos so calm but yet so so entertaining, perfectly balanced.

as all things should be.

PETSCII style art is a kind of retro you don’t see often, but is always appreciated. Great stuff.

"A great designer knows he's achieved perfection, not when there is nothing left to add. But when there is nothing left to take away." - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Great video. Inspiring. 🤩

[@monkeyman8393]

A very good quote for this type of pixel art especially!

[@craniumsnumb]

haven’t even watched the video fully yet but i know its gonna be good

[@Polyducks]

Beautiful stuff. You've really taken the medium and made it your own!

[@BJGpixel]

Thanks dude! Always appreciate your point of view when it comes to this as well! ✌️😁✨

[@seallistic]

Text mode art is so unique, this video just made me want to try it some more

[@emmielaine7352]

Very cool! It's neat to see the symbols we create words with also being used to create art. Imagine if you just used text based art for an entire game: the animations and flow would look INCREDIBLE.

[@yo5tan]

Absolutely gorgeous work! I really love the touch of a bit of rim lighting despite your limitations

[@andro_king]

thanks for introducing me to textmode art. It's become my favourite way to do art.

[@BladeLevich]

I’ve always loved making pixel art (I practically lived on spriters-resource as a kid) but I gotta say, you always amaze! You’re work is so fun to watch, even my wife gets excited for your videos.

[@_miamango_]

Quaxly is my favorite starter from this generation! You captured his style well❤️

[@BJGpixel]

Thanks! Me too, I actually played through without evolving him haha; gonna have to give it a replay to try the others as well! :D

[@whetshu2641]

No matter how long I spend without watching one of your videos, I always love them when I return. 😊 Looking forward to watching more.

[@lennoxdks9670]

loved the last one, i know this one will be great!

[@trollkarlenjp]

this is so inspiring. loved this vid, aswell as the last one using this technique

[@trash2638]

so good to see you this active man! your vids keep popping up on my feed, it’s always a fun time

[@lucyhtml]

Love CRT Time so much :)

[@doodleplayer4014]

That looks really good! I can't handle text mode art yet, it's just too many options.

[@justinwhite9434]

We had to do this for an assignment when I was in school for graphic design, but in adobe illustrator.

[@pixelbasement]

Hello Brandon I wanted to say your videos have inspired me to start my own humble journey creating pixel artwork. Been following and watching you for a long time ❤ Im just getting started so lots to learn. Thanks for being an inspiration!

[@someone8689]

It would be interesting to see your end screen in this style one of these days! Lovely work.

[@elicenyne]

The only starter that didn’t have a pull on me at any point until now. Gotta say this lil duck’s been growing on me, what with Penny Parker (Snapcube) picking them and, well, this.

[@eboatwright_]

I love this art style, and congrats on 200k!

[@admiraldanger1419]

This is exactly what I've been trying to figure out how to do for years! Thank you so much, you're one of my favourite youtubers.

[@aaronboothproduction]

I love Quaxly with my whole heart 💙

[@aarrigg]

man, lvllvl is AMAZING THANK. YOU. for showing me this, i am bookmarking lvllvl

[@Fossilized_Tea51]

I've been waiting for 8-bit but I love your content 8-bit=a bit

[@some_dude_in_the_internet]

I have always waited for HD pixelart, great job on making the pixel art!

[@hyperfreezegames]

yesss I was wondering when the next one of these would drop 😍 wonderful as always!

[@SamiTheAnxiousBean]

Text mode is still so pretty to me haven't gotten the hang of it myself but I'm very glad to see it being made thank you for introducing me to it back then btw!! I've gotten to follow a few new creators from it

[@ARDIZsq]

More Text Mode art AND Pokémon?! Brandon, you spoil us. XD

[@RKIOrbMage]

Hey! I’ve been following you for a long time but never got around to commenting You’re my main inspiration for pixel art! I love everything you make, from text art, to picocad 3d models I wanted to thank you because now i use picocad all the time and i discovered it thanks to you :) Loved the video! Can’t wait for more! Congrats on 200k!

[@OofustheDoofus]

I really love your videos! They motivate me to work and create things (not just pixel art) and help me learn every day!

[@CKTDanny]

The "chaotic" approach to Text Mode looks awesome, I don't have a huge sample size to reference but I imagine a cleaner approach could be confused with just vector art! 😆 It feels like this style really does a good job at leveraging the medium I love the effect there where the water is washing away bits of text too - very creative! Congrats on 200k btw 🥳🎉✨

[@BJGpixel]

Thanks! That's a really good point; it's nice to have little "artifacts" that reinforce the pixel art resolution. I noticed there are actually vector tilesets available in this editor - it may be neat to see what kind of difference that could make to the result! And thank you! ✨🥳🎈

[@Oretal]

This is pretty cool! Now I wanna play around with that style of art.

[@Grizz..]

Congrats on 200k!

[@BJGpixel]

✌️🥳

[@jan_harald]

textmode is awesome! it's the best limited art form, imho

[@mangoalias608]

im SO GLAD ur doing this again! i love this style and the mega man piece you made with it, and this video makes me want to practice it myself

[@digitalunity]

I subbed to this channel for some of the incredible knowledge and art, and this is no exception

[@MemeOreoz]

I'd honestly love to see you do other pokemon in this art form! You make it look so easy, keep it up!

[@owllegator]

this was such a great video!! it introduced me more to text art and overall this was super enjoyable :) i love art. keep creating friend :)

[@LeeChesnalavage]

You sure love your CRTs!

[@BJGpixel]

This isn't even my final form! Eventually I'll have to take the footage I recorded and pipe it back through the CRT! ✋🤩🤚

[@LeeChesnalavage]

@@BJGpixel And then you’ll have to upload it to Cathode Ray You Tube.

[@BJGpixel]

[@rocket_is_so_flipping_cool]

that is BEAUTIFUL

[@tritoner1221]

great video!

[@hector.001]

Hola, me gusta mucho este tipo de arte y aunque pues en Español es difícil encontrar personas que hagan buen contenido y aunque no se mucho de inglés trato de aprender pixel art y inglés, entonces quería decirte que soy tu fan muchas gracias por los vídeos

[@friendfrequent3330]

Hi Brandon, love the piece, text mode art is so unique, and I think you did a great job leaning into it's janky chaotic nature to make an amazing work, it's crazy how well it suits the CRT aesthetic too. Another thing you did a while back that I would love to see you have another go at is style swapping characters like you did with Ninja Gaiden and Megaman X4. Some ideas for characters with very contrasting styles and individual designs that I'd love to see are Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire's Brendan, Super Mario Land Mario, Terraria's default character, and (my personal favorite) the NES Bio Force Ape. There are probably more famous characters that would do better on KZbin, and more that you might want to do on top of those, so these are just my suggestions. Anyways, loved the video, and I wish you all the best.

[@MaxwellCatAlphonk]

I recognised the N⁰ character from my cyrillic keyboard shift+3

[@Indianadixon]

GAH your channel is the best

[@longdongsilver3267]

May have already said this, but you're like the Bob Ross of pixel art

[@Gr8GooseYouTube]

Very good style

[@tt_thoma]

It looks like a smoothed out SVG representation of a pixel art

[@NathanHedglin]

Awesome! Thanks

[@cheychc]

this was such a nice video :)

[@retro3188]

Awesome!

[@BUBBLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE]

AWW YEAH THIS IS HAPPENING

[@mdnghtppl0000]

So siiick

[@SethKotta]

I feel like trying to animate text art like this would either be really fun or super frustrating.

[@delilu]

so cool!!

[@bokan1056]

Subscribed! Are you in the Megaman 8 Bit Deathmatch Community? A nice place for us Megaman Fans. :D

[@UltimatePerfection]

You should check out PabloDraw, it's a text mode drawing program.

[@Fir3-Skull_5]

You should make a Darth maul sprite

[@Radek_Lemon]

You are the best (:

[@WillowEpp]

I'm really curious what you'd do with a non-square 80x25 terminal layout! Or, maybe more interestingly, S-JIS art... (・ω・)ﾉ

[@quanghieuvu1012]

Can you make a video about color curve tool, pls....

[@scientificallyaccuratespino]

QUAXLY

[@AgentTwiice]

you should try and incorporate ChatGPT into a video it is BLOWING UP right now

[@Gr8GooseYouTube]

QEUSTION. When you do any animating what software do you use for that? I know you use photoshop but I don't how to animate pixels on that software.

[@pokemad1998]

Do you think it's better to try it on a CRT without a CRT filter?

[@BluShiGuy]

Wow

[@Palcas131]

Hello Mr. Brandon, I have a request, can you explain about the anime-style pixelart that hcnone did, I'm very interested in making anime-style pixelart, but I don't know where to start. I hope you can explain it in your upcoming KZbin video. from me thank you

[@zlarcf5794]

what kind of site/app do u use to make pixelart?

[@clonejette8653]

Very nice, but totally unrelated to the video, I thought you should make breaking bad scenes in pixel art

[@Kyle29168]

Eh, the beak or face could’ve been drawn better, maybe that’s just because I try to draw stuff more accurately shaped to what the source is rather than make my own shape, but okay

[@EinXTRAZ]

Why does KZbin think this is Pokémon?😂 but I know that’s a Pokémon

[@otistically]

Josuke duck.

[@erichdiesel7306]

Check out rexPaint for a great tool for this style of art :D

[@Niniju8970]

This feels like Animal Crossing custom designs, but the smoothing is forced.

[@thomaslavoie6868]

First

[@shidoengie9503]

This is not a style it's a medium
