My Signature GFX
 

Hey graalians. In my signature, if you didn't notice, I have a graphic I made. Each month, I change the graphic to a new one I make. Sometimes, I don't know what to make. If you have any ideas of what I should make for July, August, and September, that would really help. Thanks!

A tile set. No, just kidding. Maybe a beach ball for summer?
xD

I already made a skateboard.

needs more shading

...

No, ace!!! *shakes head*
You've just been turned into a Graphics artist.

Except I don't make anything. I just criticize :D

You've been turned into my *gasp* old f-f-fifth grade teacher.

I'm not in 5th grade if that's what you're thinking

*swallows spit* umm *facepalm*

:dazed:

Save your time man, Don't make anything

lmfao

I was gonna say stick to whatever you did before you start graphics :/ srry dude, graphics isnt everyones thing

I beg to differ with the down-putting remarks. I believe anyone can make a graphic. It's a skill, and like most skills it can be learned. All you have to do is learn the basics and then polish your skill.

Your summer skateboard has 33 colors...

How do you do that?

Either way it looks like you put about 2 minutes worth of effort into bucket filling those skateboards. Put a more interesting design on them, different colors, "m0ar shadeingg"

I didn't bucket fill them....

I know, you used the gradient tool.

WHAT BUCKET FILL AND WHAT GRADIENT TOOL???

Ummm.... What program is that....

Any basic program has those two tools. <.> That was just an example.

MS Paint doesnt....

Umm this is MS Paint, no gradient tool... but there is a paint bucket tool. I don't use it though.

Ms paint doesn't have a gradient tool. So you probably shade by hand mimicking a gradient style.

A picture of my ms paint:

See the fill bucket.

I showed u it in my pic... and what does the gradient tool do? U jelly that me and Xena don't use the gradient tool?

I actually couldn't care less. If you want to shade in a gradient style which add pointless colors and looks sh*t be my guest.

Post some of your pixel art on pixeljoint.com and see what they have to say about it.

... nah im to awesome for pixeljoint.com.

Define 'awesome' .

I don't think you can compete with any of this :

Dude, Pixeljoint.com has some pretty pro graphics artist. I was just on today looking at the new work and they simply amaze me. No offense but those skateboards there wouldn't be better than any of the work on there. But that's ok, just keep trying.

PixelJoint always seems to amaze me at its fullest!<3
I always wish i could sprite in those styles... They're so crisp and detailed.

But back to your skateboard... Its flat on detail... I understand how its suppose to be similar to an iEra skateboard but those actually had some detail and more shading/variation of colors to their skateboard. To be honest, other than the bottom of the front view of the skateboard, i can hardly see any other part thats shaded

add more shading It looks way too plain.

he already 'did'.. lmao

The skateboard has 33 colors. Where's his set palette?

It looks like he uses the paintbrush tool with aa on to shade.

.....

Well if you post work of course you're gonna get some criticism right?just take these into suggestion instead of posting replys such as "....."

Leave him alone >.>

We all started somewhere. You all act like you just came out good. Give him advice and move on instead of poking fun and trolling him

You can't give him advice because he fails at insulting you and thinks he's too good. A smart man listens to what others have to say. A wise man uses what they say to grow.

and btw

.....

I'm not good at trolling and I don't want to troll MSM.

C-C-C-C-Combo breakerrr
.....

Thanks Jester.

Well if anything, I'll be happy to give you a tip or two on improving

First is the colors. According to Dylan's research, there was a total of 32 colors. Since this is more of an iEra skateboard feel, tone down the wood, yellow, and blue colors to about 3-5 each: the minimum must be 3 (darker color, normal color, lighter color). Since the lighting on the board is focused on the middle, you did a good job at coloring but your colors need to be more vivid. These colors feel entirely plain

The same applies to the back of the board aswell.

Second is detail.. It looks plain. I recommend maybe giving the wheel more of a plastic-like texture (I think that's how it's called) instead of leaving it one color. Also, give some sort of a wood texture to the back of the board

Just my suggestions. If you wish to avoid them, feel free to but you could find these suggestions of mine really useful if you're asking for critique

Okie

I wish i wish i wish we had neg rep, i'd be dealing some out...

I like the new rep system. You can speak your mind without being afraid of people neg repping you.

I used to get quite a few negs from speaking my mind
