Can somebody give me lessons?

I hate do to this, but, leading a crew, I'd like to be able to do what my crew is doing. I think the leader should be able to do anything he asks his followers (for lack of a better word) to do.

And one thing I'm not very good at is art.

Krazyman50 can testify to this, I can't even do a cloud. They all looked like infinity symbols.

Anyhow, I'd just like someone to point me in the direction of some good lessons on making art. Personal lessons are alright too, if you want to do that, but I've been suffering from extreme lagginess for the past couple of days, so that may not be the best option.

In general, I want to learn sprites and smaller art as well as bigger landscapes and such.

Thanks in advance!

Ravatroll's guide:

Bee's guide:

They are the two best artists on EE imo.

I'd like to add that practice makes perfect. If it doesn't look good the first time, erase and try again.

This, but sometimes don't erase it, just change part of it.

Re: Can somebody give me lessons?

I'd love to help (if those tutorials MIHB posted earlier didn't help). I'm working on a level called 'The Western Air Temple"

Look at my art and tell me what you think!

Yeah, well, you know that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.

Re: Can somebody give me lessons?

Honestly, your best bet at doing art is to experiment in mspaint first. Its faster than EE art and with ctrl+g it can be copied over if you are more confident with paint.

Sprites can be googled and copied as well, if you are desperate.

Palettes can be found on my guide in level creation, and Rava's guide is for playable artistic levels.

If you would like to request a specific type of art (such as "how to draw a tree") feel free to send me a PM and ill whip one up for you

Thank you all for your help

The reason I quoted you is because I'm currently looking at your (and RavaTroll's) guide.

I think I pretty much have what I need, but I'll take more of these if you post them.

I know an amazing artist on Kong, and I'd have to say that if you're working on huge art, use the minimap. If something doesn't turn out right, look at the minimap and decide what doesn't look right, then change it.

By the way, what does ctrl+g do?
