Description Because a certain friend asked for me to teach her how to pixel my shiny eyes, but I can't teach, so I told her I would do a tutorial for her instead.

This is just how I color, okay?

I made this in Paint Tool SAI, but this should work in all programs that let you pixel.


You can do this in only one layer if you want. To make this, I made it using layers for the purpose of making it easier to make a tutorial out of (I didn't screenshot).

I don't expect that you still use this method, but I have an eye where the pupil needs to be a different color from the iris. The iris is yellow, and the pupil is bright pink.

prntscr.com/c10arz As you can see, I'm not doing a very good job with the eye close-up there...

ok but what brush ?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

JAYWlNG In reply to wunking [2012-11-09 02:59:39 +0000 UTC]

In SAI there is this brush called the Binary Tool. That is the pixeling brush in SAI.
As for Photoshop, left click the brush tool, and it'll show a small dropdown. The pencil tool is the pixeling tool in this case.

TheMistressOfAnime [2012-06-15 00:13:06 +0000 UTC]

Does anyone have any tips on pixeling sectoral heterochromia (Where someone's eyes are one color on part of each eye and a different color on the other part)?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

JAYWlNG In reply to TheMistressOfAnime [2012-06-15 01:37:54 +0000 UTC]

Uh, put down the base color and follow the instructions. If you really have a problem, you might want to use multiply/overlay. (If you don't know what that is, I honestly don't want to explain it, so sorry!)

Brokenshade25 [2012-05-07 16:05:01 +0000 UTC]

what is the difference between pixel and.. whatever else there is anyway?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

purecallisto In reply to Brokenshade25 [2012-05-07 18:13:54 +0000 UTC]

Pixel is pixelly - grainy. It's not smooth. Now compare this eye to another eye made in SAI or Photoshop using the Pen tool. Difference seen.

JAYWlNG In reply to Macaroll [2012-05-07 19:18:22 +0000 UTC]

There's a tool called the binary tool. It's made for pixels.
There's no eraser in SAI for pixeling, but there's this thing that looks like a 2x2 grid near the color boxes, right? that's for the transparent color, which basically can turn any tool into an eraser.
