You know what I am talking about right? The pixel art they use to draw sprites for games like Disgaea/ Dungeon Fighter/ Most capcom games, Phoenix Wright series is a good example from capcom.
What do you think about Pixel art and Sprites?
Personally, I am a sucker for great sprites and amazing pixel art. I spend a lot of my college hours in paint of Photoshop just sitting there and trying to create some nice sprites that I can just look at and feel proud of.
I love it that most of the time such nice clear and bright colours are used for sprites, It's a great thing I have to say. The simplicity of it all also attracts me, although pixel art doesn't tend to be the most complicated it's simple but still looks so great. It's that kind of stuff I love most.
So what are your thoughts? Thoughts on comics/games that use pixel art and sprites? Anything of particular distinction that you want to name?
EDIT: You can and should post your Pixel art here, or post a link or whatever. Share the pixel luv.

I'm a moderate lover of pixel art. Dolls are my favorites-they're fun to make.

Yes, I absolutely adore pixel work.
One of the harder elements to go with.
I think I'll be giving it a shot right about now..

Pixel art is easy to do, the only hard part is trying to figure out what to draw. Like with any other art.
Personaly I love it. I do draw it in MS Paint once in a while.

There's actually a secret embodiment of techniques for pixel art that allow artist to create intricate details for a short amount of time. While I don't claim to know them, there's one little fact I know (and use) but if I told them here, a lot of people might be disgraced. :P

I'm attempting to make my own 2D fighter, and I'm trying to make some Pixel art. I've still quite a few things to learn, but I think it's going well. Hopefully the more I do it the better I get at it and by the time I've made like my tenth character it will be superbly awesome.

I LOVE pixel art. I'm so jealous of people who can do it.
I want to create icons of my favorite original characters with pixel art, but I don't think it will be possible for me. ;w;
