Since I started making a game I searched for a tutorials on the internet. Many of them were about pixel-art and how to improve your pictures or make them at least don't look like they were made by a child... <_<
For a few days now I had the idea for a thread about drawing pictures and linking to tutorials that helped you to improve your skills. Maybe someone here is interested in sharing her/his pictures with us, give helpful feedback to others or post some good tutorials that maybe helped him/her to improve their pictures. At least that's what I hope. :)

So here a some pictures I made and tutorials that helped me:
A I made with the help of [url=http://www.gimpusers.com/tutorials/starfield-tutorial]this tutorial for GIMP. It was supposed to be as a background in my game but sadly it is not really suitable for tiling so have to make a new one.
The attached pictures show two versions of the player body without head and feet I made. As you can see I improved a little bit after reading tutorials. ^^ The two tutorials that helped me to improve are and [url=http://finalbossblues.com/pixel-tutorials/]this.

So someone else interested in this topic?

Did you want it seamless?

Is this better

Well, I thought about making a smaller, seamless one.

As I can see you altered my picture but the problem is still the same. :)

Edit:
Certainly I also could make a starfield as big as the room in the game but that would be a picture with nearly 3300 x 3300 pixels of which is only a very small part seen.

Ah ok that was the most seamless and tile-able I could make it.

No problem. Thanks anyway. :)
