Create a sprite with cell shading or cartoon effect - ryushin - 03-12-2021

Hi,


I'm working on 2D game, and I want to create sprite with cell shading effect or cartoony.

I will use this asset : https://youtu.be/m-WZkOWW_VM

How can I paint my sprite to look as in the asset ?

I'm a beginner with Gimp.[

Thank you.

I for one am not going to pay 6 Euro to see what the effect is.

Please post a viewable link to the required effect. Many many ways to 'cartoonise' an image.

Thank you for the answer.

Sorry, may be my issue was not clear.

Here is the link on youtube: https://youtu.be/m-WZkOWW_VM

The link I posted is only for showing what art style I'm looking for. I want to create sprite with a similar rendering.

I hope it is clear now.

The link only gives me an 'add to cart' Wink https://i.imgur.com/K7SNLUR.jpg

If you post an image of a sprite and the type of style, I am sure someone will be able to advise.

edi: Ok I see the video link, might give some clues

I changed the link to my first post too.

As I'm newbie on Gimp, I don't now where to begin and how to paint this kind of rendering I'm looking for.

I'm aware that will take me some time to learn how to do it.

So, if anyone can help me out, it will be great.

I just want to highlight that my problem is not drawing.

My issue is situated at level of painting : which color , filter, effect and so one to add to get colors as in the video I posted.

I will throw in this from the video

...but to me it looks like artwork rather than filter created effects. However hopefully somebody will come up with suggestions.  There are a few things to consider, a limited palette for example.

I already know which sprite I will use, but I have no idea how to paint them to get same looking.
