Dithering is cool. That's what the gradient uses, and I did that by hand because the software I use has a crappy dithering algorithm.

I used this technique I found on Aseprite community:
It's very helpful, but I'm gonna get software that will do this for me. I think that it's good to practice this technique, though, and I will continue to do so. Also this took much longer than the clouds which I did find a video on:

I learned this over a year ago, and they are really easy to learn! A very important lesson for beginner pixel artists (which I consider myself one since I have just gotten back into it)
Since ig I'll get more reach with this account rather than my new one @dogslayslaw , I'll post it here first!
So I've been starting up a Webtoon with a friend for the past few months (though it's going very slowly and we only have some character sheets and a concept). It's about two FBI agents, Franklin Codrin and Lucian Holt, in the 1970s who are sent to work in a new FBI division called FB(o)I or Factual and Borderline-Occult Investigation. The division is set in Dorsal Ridge, Maine, a small New England town by the sea that was known for it's whaling market and eventually its dairy produce. The town is known for having supernatural, occult, and strange occurrences that are severe enough to be investigated on a federal level.
Basically, the Webtoon will be about these two investigating these occurrences and figuring out why are they so concentrated in this town.
A lot more will be explained on the account for this Webtoon shortly:
