Hi guys, how has your day been? :)
For those of you that don't know, (which is almost all of you) I'm a gamer with PC as the choice of platform. Usually I play MineCraft because I like being able to pick on the villagers. >:3
Today was not one of those days, however.
"Woah! Those floating pictures in the servers are super awesome! I'm going to try that!" I said to myself, not realizing how hard/strenuous it actually is.
For those of you that don't know, those floating pictures are called pixel art. It looks super simple if your eyes are good and can count quickly, but for those of us that can't it's super freaking hard! My eyes are already terrible (I'm legally blind without my glasses on) but I'm sure that focusing on a small square and counting said squares is making them even worse.
The first pixel art I ever did was one of Eren Yeager (one of the main characters in the anime Attack on Titan) and I didn't really have a good template for it so I was straining my eyes even more. Most templates you use have lines drawn so it's easier to count squares this one, however, did not.
The picture I'd chose to recreate on my world was an pixel drawing with no easy way to count pixels. It took me about three hours before I was done and I never wanted to do it again (totally did it again). My back was hurting and my eyes felt dry and I wanted to scream.

The end result was pretty awesome, I'm not gonna lie. Had the process getting to that result been easier, I would've been soooo much happier, but it looked good and that's all that matters right?
Pretty good, huh? :)
