Well, as you can see im recreating some of the threads i've made.

People apparently liked the MS Paint art thread, and there hasn't been one yet, So here you go. This is specifically for MS Paint art and tips.

I liked it Savaril.

Infact my new style is ms paint not the bad kind. My paint style was inspired by you yourself savaril, I love you. He he, look on page 6 of fan art 4.0 for it.

MS paint is cool, its kinda ugly and pixely, but until I get flash, its the best Ive got

It was inspired by the one u made and put in some thread on MS paint,

EDIT: Argh, stupid PSD files won't upload. (PSD because I used photoshop to animate it, but the art was all made on ms paint).

to avoid the pixelness of paint do what I do, draw them humongous [800X800 or larger] and resize them in another program (I prefer InfranView, free and effective)

I think that sort of disqualifies it as MS Paint art, because you're using another program to edit the image. Besides, you can do anti-aliasing in Paint, pixel-by-pixel, if you really want your lines to be smooth.

Here's the sprites I made for the first Spriter Contest:






Not proud of the armor, but whatever.

Well it's all drawn in paint... resizing modifies the size not the look

Resizing in anything other than Paint will do automatic anti-aliasing and other nice things to make your picture look nice and smooth - it does modify the look. Your lines are smoother, etc.

I Painted a really cool angel for my laptop wallpaper, but the laptop is ancient and I can't bring it over to this computer. :(

I guess this counts as paint seen as it was drawn in it just not animated in Paint.

Indian flag with Taj Mahaal on it.




The tex on this is from a different forum if you were wondering, which you probably weren't.

You could always go Gimp.

Lol, RuneScapez? The shading is okay, but the guy looks like he walked through sketchytown, he has way too many lines on his body, like with the boots and the stomach muscles.

This is a resized drawing I made in paint of a girl I know. It's unfinished but I can't seem to find the time. Cheers for looking anyway

Hey InTransit, nice picture. I was makin a mark on your image to show you how I thought the ears and face should look, perspective wise, and I got carried away. Hope you don't mind, what do you think??

First time using MS Paint as a... medium, I guess. It's pretty tough to work with. I saw all the awesome on this thread and hoped my work would match up.

That's pretty sweet, Vee, but it would look a bit better if you went around the edges and smoothed them instead of having the random pixels along the edges.

Zoom in. View>Zoom>Custom>600% will help you see the random pixels along the edge better.

Looks like an outline of GreatBritain with strange claw-like things around the edges. Not bad though.
