Artist's Comments

This is a visual tutorial for using some of the copy+paste functionality in my new tool, isoblox.

isoblox, if you're unfamiliar with it, is a freeware open-source isometric pixel art tool. You can download it and try it out here: [link]
There is no install necessary, and if you want to remove it, simply delete the program wherever you extracted it. Currently there are only pre-compiled binaries available for 32-bit Windows (which should also work in Vista with compatibility mode turned on *untested), but the source code files (and compilers) are available for both Mac and Linux, so it could be easily re-compiled on those platforms. It is sprite-based and pseudo-3D, and uses the perfect pixel-art isometric viewing angle (which is slightly different from the actual drafting isometric view, due to the fact that the angle used for drafting causes odd artifacts on a computer screen; thus, pixel artists use a basic "two-over, one-up" scheme instead).

Awesome, looks incredibly userfriendly. And the wireframe view is actually very aesthetically pleasing.

Thanks :)

Work is killing me these last few months, but this project is not forgotten. Far from it, I have a ton of ideas.

For instance, how cool would it be to be able to perform all commands using only the mouse and some sparse buttons?

I have the know-how to do whatever the hell I feel like, but it will not be until December or January that I'll actually have the time.
