Thank you all for the favorite in advance!

Premium Content contains all textures ready to print in 300dpi 27x13cm sheet - it's considered more as a support, no need to Purchase to use it
Here are examples of how to do pixel art shading and textures in different way than using the ugly dithering method!

I finally redid this "tutorial"! I added examples to the actual sheet, and I added a few more examples of texturing (sand, tree trunk / wood, bricks, fabric). I've spend like 1000000 hours on searching for proper examples, then cropping it, signing... I'm dead now
Of course these are just rough examples of only few of textures, not an exact way of how to do things. Also, I used only two colors, but don't hesitate to use more of them. And please do not copy the style of artists provided in examples!

And one more advice form me: watch some digital paintings as examples as well! They are not as different from pixel art as it seem to be!

Hope you like it!
