    I began creating pixel art just before starbound came out and recently made some sprites for a friends mod. I really enjoy the ideas of modding however have very few programming skills of my own, so this is an offer (you cant refuse :p) to do art for mods. If you would like me to make some sprites for your mod please say so below. My only request in return for these is that I may add them to my design portfolio ( every little helps). I am in no way professional so my time in order to complete requests may vary and I may choose to do or not do requests that get posted here.

    Examples of previous pixel art:

    Instrument crafting station

    Bunch Of Scrubs resources
    BoS logo.jpg

    banner YT size.png

    end slate big.png

    twitter banner actual size.png

    Holy cow

    as well as my avatar and a bunch of other awesomenaut sprites im trying to make a race for atm.

    EDIT: I assume this is the right category for this...

    I'm about to give up on the modding also, and just throw what I've made so far on this forum.

    I use graphics gale free edition: http://www.humanbalance.net/gale/us/
    I dont use many of the special features but it does what I need it to do and thats what matters.

    I was thinking earlier it'd be funny to make a springboard. Y'know, looks like a normal section of floor but when you step on it it springs up and sends you flying? Would only work on npcs and mobs, though, since I don't think we have any way to call scripts on the player or identify nearby techs. If you feel like making the sprites for it, I can do the rest. If you don't, though, no problem. I've lotsa other stuff to do.

    Will try :D

    For now I will make humanoid models but what kind of ratio do you want? humans with ears and tails? full body hair humans with the muzzle etc, a bipedal wolf?

    My aim was to derail Xlotl's thread :p (and not in a spiteful way)

    For a second there I thought you wanted me to do you the art for you... As you said mine is not pixel art and is nothing special.

    basically, similar to the human, but furry, some ears and some kind of tail.

    I didn't mean to say yours was nothing special, it's just you were trying to show off, but you were comparing high-def to pixel art.

    I was not trying to "show off" I was trying to derail my friends thread because he said that things were going off topic, so I wanted to 'help' :D

    Well I need to go look up what derail means. :rofl:

    Just means to send it on a tangent, away from the original intention of the thing in question.

    Since then i have added a muzzle as well as jumping and i am currently working on emotes. The outline is furrier but im not sure how i would do pixel fur without it looking like a chess board.
