Wholesome Caldarus moment
StarDust
A city with the remnants of civilization. Ark city. Scarlet clothes. Scarlet heels. Scarlet lipstick. Scarlet roses. Every man passing by cannot help but turn their heads. A bouquet in her left hand, a promise held in her right. She cannot fight the impulse driving her. “We fit, don’t we? Now we’re a match made in heaven. Oh, such happiness…” Your white clothes are now- Ah, why did she fall in love? Even if the beginnings of love cannot be explained, there are always reasons behind the destruction of love. And if their relationship were to be brought to ruin, then she’d rather….
Elys ~ She fell in love. Love changed her. She was crazy for love. And maybe she’ll come face to face with her own self.
Pavro ~ A certain artist. Even if he sets his sights high, not all dreams will come true. He likes white. A white that covers and hides all. A white that mends all.
I’m trying to get into pixel art without watching a bunch of tutorials first (they exhaust me and then demotivate me so then I never want to make art again). Anyways, I was wondering if you’d mind sharing some of your earliest works? You are an inspiration to me, but I know I have a ways to go before my very extremely amateur art is anything like your art is now. Thank you :) and have a wonderful day!
I'm glad you're starting out doing pixel art, and that's awesome! I've been in the exact same position as you are in right now, and I'll give one of my Mak Insights™️for this (lengthy ass read). I started doing pixel art around the summer of 2020, and it's been more than four years. I've started basically just like anyone! I had basic knowledge of art, composition, ideas for color, and simple forms. As you might notice, my early works don't really have much detail; it's more on silhouettes because I don't know how basic 3D forms work at the time! And usually I would stick to one color scheme—simple reds, subtle blues, etc. I had a really simple style back then, but I was alright with what I got going.
For most artists, you'd go through learning the concepts, ideas, techniques and styles. I've went through the 'YouTube Tutorial' phase and it's been head scratcher; still kinda is. You learn alot, but sometimes at the same time, nothing at all? I've went through bouts of doubt with my art, exhaustion from trying to do something different, then beating myself up for not getting it right. Only recently have I actually found some peace with where I am in my art life right now. But for now, take your steps at your own pace; go through the process of spending time, learning stuff, experimenting styles, having fun, getting stressed, being bored, and reimagining yourself through your art—and as you're chasing your peak, you realize that it's already reached you, and you're the best artist you can be at that very moment. And I hope this helps <3
I just got March's two hearts event yesterday and it was basically this, tf is his problem
