it's officially fall! 🍂 best season time
I love your art so much!! It's inspiring me to get back into pixel art (I gave up quickly). A huge problem I had was I didn't know what size was best to set my canvas for specific projects. I always ended up overestimating and making it too big and then it looked less like pixel art and more like grainy digital art. Do you have a rough guide you stick to for landscapes/bedrooms/cities VS. things like animals and characters?
aw thank you i'm happy to hear that! i hope u stick with it ♥
with landscapes/bedrooms/cities i use 275x155. this provides a fair amount of detail while still keeping it pixely, plus it resizes to wallpaper size. for vertical i just reverse it at 155x275.
i've also recently started to use 215x215 (same amount of pixels as above) so that i can resize my art to easily fit both wallpapers, and mobile videos... since tiktok and instagram reels are everything nowadays 😒
for characters and animals, generally i will base the size of the canvas around how i stylize eyes.
so i'll draw the eyes first, then just draw everything else around that.
i also have a smaller resolution style with 2px dot eyes that i use for adding characters to landscapes, since my landscape resolution is too small for my regular style unless the character is close to the screen.
hope this helps!

i updated the files, and it should include all of these now!
i don't think any of these are clip studio but photoshop, procreate, krita and gimp should work :)
