Hello.. I don't mean to waste your time, but I was just searching the pixel art tag and I found your art and I think it's really cool... I've always wanted to make pixel art, but I honestly don't know how.. Could you tell me what software/hardware you use?.. It's ok if you don't want to.

I use Paint Tool Sai, but you can use photoshop, mspaint(I don’t recommend using this.) or any other art program. I use a tablet to draw but sometimes I use a mouse for pixelart, so no need for fancy shit.

The binary tool keeps everything you draw as sharp ass pixels. And its all you gotta do is zoom the fuck in. Like anywhere, any canvas size don’t matter.
When I mean draw anything I really mean it. The best thing about pixelart is that you can’t make mistakes, you can always fix it up no matter what you do. A blob, or the shape of what you want, as long as you got something started you can keep going.
You can add onto whatever you do, try out diffrent colors, diffrent shapes. Its all up to you and your imagination
The amount of detail is up to you. You can keep going with something and and add as much stuff you like until you’re satisfied. and the coolest thing about pixel art is that you can always go back to it.

Just stop and remember how far you’ve gotten. It all starts with just adding one pixel. Also whoever asked this, don’t be afraid to ask this out of anon that way I can message you and help you out.
