This makes me wonder something. o.o How long have you been doing pixel art?
pixel art i've been doing on and off for about a year, and i did a little before although i didn't know it was pixel art at the time, i was just messing around in paint.
then about a year ago i found some pixel art communities and did spates of pixel art. i then joined yerf [a furry art archive which is pretty hard to get into] and decided to do sometime different from the norm, so i did a lot of practise in it, and that's when i started getting good.
there are loads of tutorials over the internet how to do it. all you need is a good eye for art.
before pixel art i did a lot of adobe photoshop computer art, so i've had experience with a mouse for a number of years. even before then, i've been drawing almost non-stop since i was 3 or 4, so i've had lots of practise :}
sprites were easy for considering they are just another form of pixel art, but the ones i posted on this forum were my first proper ones!
edit:
progress so far - these are the sprites which i plan on working on for now:
pikafirefight - i'm working on yours right now [i love the idea!]
shadow scizor - next in line! [p.s. you
can use the reshaded pokemon i made for you if you like!]
blazin espio - i would have done you first, but i need some info first [I PMed you]
