That pixelation looks really bad, and it's very annoying to blend from.
You didn't do much to blend from the right, and what is your tile even about?
This tile is from Newbies 33: Lazing In The Haze Of Midday, Laughing In The Grasses And The Graves

Pixelation = BAD
Re: Pixelation = BAD
Yea I agree... After I hit the submitt button and walked away and came back I was like, "what were you thinking"
The picture was suppose to be... is a picture of water falling down over rocks into a gourge and going under a bridge. I think the biggest problem was that I was drawing and trying to do too much while zoomed in to close. I really couldn't see the whole picture.
I am still trying to get use to the software and stuff so anyway I'll use that excuse :) for now.

Newbie quilts are for learning how to use the tools & perfecting your art! Don't get frustrated, just make each effort better than the next. Sometimes people are a little too tough on the newbies. If you notice, the regulars gave you a 2 on this tile. Hang in there & Keep drawing!
Pixelart
yup newbies and mainquilts are for learning and experimenting, and scores should be lenient. i don't think it looks bad at all in context though. kind of a transition piece that looks like a weird abstract mausoleum, or undefineable rock formation, in the field. and you gotta zoom to see the pixelart so it's not a difficult blend. definitely not so bad as to be receiving negative scores. jmo. but he too gave himself a negative score, swhatcha gonnadoo :o))
Re: Re: Re: Pixelation = BAD
I am definitely a newbie to this site as well as to digital art... but not to art itself. I am secure enough in my abilities as an artist to understand the difference between unbiased negativity and a constructive critique of my artwork.
With that being said I myself rated this a -1 because I believe this tile is far below my ability and on top of that I think that it looks terrible.
But anyway I digress, thank you for your encouragement renee. I have enjoyed participating in this quilt and feel sure that I will dabble in others as time permits.

Tile
Hello there. This is my first quilt here also. I have about 8 mths experience with photoshop what program are you using??
I agree that working on such a small scale and trying to make it look good is a challenge. I messed that up on my first tile.
I too have gotten dinged on scores a bit. One of my tiles got a -4 !!!! My tile next tile is the one under yours youll have to let me know if I blended the bottom of yours ok :)
But keep up the participation I cant wait to see what we come up with on the next one!!

Re: Tile
Shrela ... thanks for the positive comments. I hope that you feel welcome here. As this is a newbie quilt ... I don't believe that perfection is expected. I hope that you have fun learning and creating your tiles here at ice.org.
