Your gateway to endless inspiration
Ok after quite a while, I made my boi kyle his own sdv portrait!
I used this to have a blank base to build off of. I was originally going to try and just build him using one of the portrait makers, but none of them had anything that I liked for his hair. And the facial hair just didn't work for me lol. So I decided to do it myself :3
I have a little bit of experience making sdv portraits, but I gotta say it's a lot faster when you've got a base and some good references. Pixel art is so fuckin hard man. Like each pixel has to be placed so purposefully, and you don't have a lot of wiggle room with what you're trying to show with those pixels, if that makes sense. I have mad respect for those who do pixel art!
I'll make him some more expressions soon, cause I wanna make an ask blog with him!
(I still have to do some research to figure out just what to do, and I've gotta finish Kyle's refs lol. I also gotta make another portrait for his friend Cassie cause she's important to the story)
Quick pre-farm Kyle ref i threw together
My new sdv farmer: Kyle Walker!
He currently looks nothing like his sprite lmao, but I'll befriend the wizard and fix it later :3
I may make a comic about him and his time in stardew valley, tho I can't promise anything lol
