Pixel Studio Pro Unlocked

Introduction:

Pixel Studio is fully functional and can easily support users to create animations and export them to GIF. It also allows for custom editing of color palettes, making pixel figurine colors more appropriate and vivid. It also has many functions such as color pickers, simple scaling and moving tools, etc. Friends who need it can download and give it a try!

As you can see, this is a pixel focused painting software suitable for both adults and children, who can use it to learn or paint! Equipped with a series of painting tools including pencils, brushes, erasers, filling buckets, color selectors, etc., these tools can help you easily draw to achieve the desired pixel drawing effect, which can well meet the user's pixel drawing needs.

You can start from scratch and gradually master and learn how to paint, or you can showcase your skills in the pixel community and upload your own works. Here, a large number of pixel painting templates are all created in this way! You can also upload every artwork you learn about pixel painting, and witness your own growth process. Don't miss it if you are interested in pixel painting!

Software features:

1. Pixel animation

Like other animations, pixel animations are composed of frames. The shorter the interval between frames, the smoother the animation appears.

If you want to create more complex animations for your character, you can divide the body parts of the character into different layers (which is also the method used by techniques such as Spine and live2d).

Creating animations using separate body parts is easier and won't make you crazy in frame by frame painting. You can save the animation in. gif format.

Then you can convert it to other video formats. You can use a pixel palette to create animations and then save them as GIF.

2. How to create pixel art

Everything starts with inspiration. Firstly, you need to have an inspiration, and only then can you express it in pixel art.

Therefore, it is best to draw a sketch first. You can first draw an outline, sketch a rough outline on the pixel canvas, or draw it on paper or a graphic editor, and then paste it into the pixel editor.

Most pixelated software has the function of pasting a layer, which is also included here, and then begins to outline the details.

Finally, you need to store the image in an appropriate size and export it.

Is it easy to use:

1. colour

The most common mistake that beginners make is to choose bright colors as much as possible, as well as stripe gradients (see the previous section).

The contrast between colors can be expressed not only by brightness, but also by tone. To make the drawing process faster and more effective, you can use ready-made color palettes.

One of the most famous sources of color palettes is lospec.com palette list (the website is accessible domestically and the English interface will not affect your use).

In the pixel palette, you can switch from RGB (red, green, blue) color mode to HSV (hue, saturation, brightness) mode, which can help you choose the correct color.

2. shadow

The light and shadow techniques in pixel painting are the same as those in classic painting. You need to find the source of light based on the following information:

Reflection (the mirror image of an object on the surface of other smooth objects)

Highlights (the brightest part of an object)

Shadow (opposite to highlight, it is the darker part of an object that appears to be unable to receive light)

Projection (about the part of another secondary object that is not illuminated by light because the primary object is blocking it)

Software advantages:

1. Trembling color

TikTok is a type of gradient in pixel painting, consisting of two intersecting pixels.

The most popular shake color mode is the chessboard shake color.

TikTok can use two colors to create a visual effect of the third color.

The pixel palette also features the Dithering Pen tool to create similar lighting effects.

You can also find some classic and practical brush configurations from the brush interface.

2. Bar gradient

A bar gradient is an incorrect gradient composed of two or more lines of the same color but with different brightness values.

It is best to use the HSV (hue, saturation, value) color mode when using gradients.

You can switch between RGB/HSV color modes in the color picker.

By the way, Pixel Studio has gradient tools to draw the correct gradients.

What are the functions:

1. Anti-Aliasing

Anti aliasing is a technique used to eliminate aliasing effects in pixel art.

This method is applied to special dual pixels, and its function is to smooth uneven edges.

You can smooth the inner and outer edges of objects. Anti aliasing is not always required, especially in simple drawings.

But when you are drawing more advanced pixel art, this feature is worth considering.

2.line

Lines can be said to be one of the most important elements in pixel art.

The lines should be continuous without any breaks.

They will create a sense of disharmony in your drawings.

Broken lines are called serrations.

The thickness of the lines should always be consistent.

It is not recommended to have a width of 2 pixels within the same line (sometimes with exceptions).

To draw perfect lines on a pixel palette, simply use the pen tool.

When selecting the pen tool, click on the gear (settings button) at the bottom right of the screen, which has an option called Pixel Perfect Line Draw, which is turned off by default.

After turning on this feature, you can draw perfect lines by hand.

However, this feature can only be used for 1-pixel wide lines.
