Show HN: Pixels.style – a tiny watercolor-style pixel art maker
I built this over my Christmas break: pixels.style, a simple browser-based pixel art tool that gives your drawings a soft, watercolor vibe instead of sharp pixels. No signup, just open and draw. Installable as a PWA.
Try it: https://pixels.style https://pixels.style
Would love feedback on whether it feels fun/useful and what you’d want next!
- varunkv 9mo agoIt is a nice tool and really worth while using.
- DenisDolya 9mo agoI liked it, although I'm not an artist, but the process is quite interesting, you made the visualizations of the watercolor look perfect, you did it really powerfully. Can you tell me how? If it's not a secret:)
- petersonh 9mo agoIt's no secret! I used Tyler Hobbs' method which has a great write up here: https://www.tylerxhobbs.com/words/a-guide-to-simulating-watercolor-paint-with-generative-art https://www.tylerxhobbs.com/words/a-guide-to-simulating-wate... Then I tweaked it until it look good for use in my app.
