Let's talk pixel art

[RD!]

This is something I've always wanted to do. I get so frustrated with trying though, which I know is something I need to get past. Anyone here into it that wouldn't mind shedding some tips?

Interesting, but I haven't any tips.

First heard of it when I ran into someone at a very small board that somehow made very nice sigs with MS Paint. I like the idea because I like sprites of characters, but the only times I used it was creating "nose art" for my Continuum fighter and trying some image touch ups.

My skills for anything creative seems minimal. :sweat:

[Good Ol' Batmanuel!]

I've done a bit of it. Mostly top-down stuff rather than 3D.

Here are a few pixely things I've made:

With the last one, I tried to add as much detail as possible (the keyboard has every key represented, for instance) and as close to scale with each other as I could. It was supposed to be my room from above, but I lost interest and just put everything together in a smaller area.
