After my internship was up, I was hired on to build backgrounds and to design props and characters for animation projects. I then began to do my own freelance work on the side through networking and using online freelancing sites. Now I work as a freelance Illustrator and designer working on my own time from where ever I want.

As an experienced graphic designer, I took this course to learn best practices for creating pixel art game assets with Photoshop. There were a few nuggets of wisdom in this course that helped me see the process in a new way. The instructor speaks clearly and goes at a good pace.

Wirklich ein guter Kurs fr Einsteiger. Ein bisschen was aus der Side-View und ein bisschen was aus der RPG-View, ein bisschen Animation. Zum reinschnuppern in Pixel Art fr Games, auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.

Fantastic course!

By Dylan Davies on 8/8/2020

Great introduction to pixel art! Concise and fluent explanations saying and teaching you about saving time when animating and drawing. Only slight issue was having to buy photoshop, as I wish he could show you examples or lectures using software such as Gimp which is free. Overall, impressed!
