This has helped a ton for my personal project I been developing, as I been using place holder circles and squares as pixel art due to having zero confidence. Shall be utilizing your channel a lot with all the good information you have on pixel art. Thanks for the KZreads!

    @@saultoons Thank you! I also have some questions that I hope you are able to answer if you don't mind :) When I got to the part where I had to use the magic wand tool, I had created 2 groups like you did in the video and I flattened both, but when trying to select a color it instead select the whole square with the donut in it. I tried changing tolerance and contiguous but that didn't seem to do anything either. What am I doing wrong here? Also, what would you recommend when making pixel art? Keeping as much as possible on one layer or seperating layers with color, lineart etc? Cause I tried making lineart on one layer then making a new layer with color but when trying to use the paint bucket tool it just colors in the entire thing, is that because I need to make sure the lineart layer is the top layer? :)

    I've been wanting to create an rpg game since high school in the late 90s. I went to college for graphic design and have been working regular jobs since. However, I have been doing freelance graphic design projects for years but it still isn't what I've wanted to do. I've used RPG maker for years too but I felt like it didn't have enough customization. This channel has completely opened my eyes to be able to create that RPG game from scratch and this makes it completely customizable! Thank you so much for this channel and these amazingly helpful videos. I am beginning the creation of my 20 year dream tonight! I can't wait to purchase this program and get to work!

You're very good at explaining, you're hilarious at times, you make it very fun and easy to understand. I never understood pixel art and I started out at drawing anime in clip studio paint. I'm not that good and normally I follow a template or something but after watching your videos I feel more confident that I can accomplish my goals!
