The image features five labeled pixel art drawings. The drawing labeled "original" shows a green hand laying flat, viewed from below. It has white highlights facing different directions and a dark shadow covering the bottom half of the palm. "No Shading" shows the same hand with no shadow and some detail lines to imply the shape of the palm "Shading" shows the hand with shadow implying the bottom of the palm and fingers. The Highlight has been reduced to a one-pixel highlight. "Primitive" shows a rectangular slab, draw at roughly the same angle as the hand. It is shaded with the same palette as the hand. The bottom of the slab is in shadow, to illustrate the methodology used to shade the bottom-facing planes of the "shading" drawing. There is a slight highlight on the slab's corner that most faces the light source. "Primitive 2" shows the same slab, with one side shaded completely white, to illustrate a potential rendering style that uses white to accentuate a plane direction instead of a highlight.

A friend of mine asked for advice on her pixel art drawing of a hand (labeled "Original"). Another friend suggested I post my response here (got OP's permission. edited for bsky).

I'd love to be able to rearrange the Output/Debugger/Audio panel around and make it vertical!

would you say switching to love changed your art style at all? Like made some things easier/harder to implement so you avoided or gravitated toward them?
