Well if you're taking requests; this is a picture of Master Belch. He has the exact same pixel design as Master Barf. He's just a different color. I couldn't find a good sized, full depiction of Master Barf. I'm honestly curious how you decide to go about a doing such a pixelated design.

Been trying a couple different things here.The first of which was trying to reuse what I've started calling in my head "all black" style, where one thick shade is used, previously seen here:

Doesn't really work with the eyes on master belch/barf though so I scrapped it. Now trying for my usual style but without / or \, to try and emulate the right angles. What I'm undecided on is the shading, would you care so much if I kept to just one "shade" for the skin and another for the mouth? He's got a sort of shadowed look to him so I understand if it's important.

I'm actually having a lot of fun with this one, because I get to try out different things. I've never ASCII'd pixel art before but I want to now. Shading is driving me crazy though. This is a very specific thing but I wish the reverse semicolon were ASCII instead of just Unicode. Seems like it'd be a bit of pain to get Unicode to work with the number pad.

By no means a finished project, I just wanted to keep the change in style mid-work preserved with a picture. You can see where I first tried to tackle it with standard Patamon fare.

Then I got the idea to use II "" as the pixels which seems to work well for the outlines themselves, apart from the teeth which I'm still working out.

Shading is the toughest part. I'm using [:::::] as the baseline color, though I might change that because using the next darker tone [;;;;;;] on half one pixel tall shades obviously isn't working, especially if, of two pixels, the darker one is on top (hence the comment about wanting to use the reverse semicolon).

Using III for two different shades also seems wrong, so I'm playing with the idea of using iii. Maybe I'll look into other symbols that are are the same height but lighter than |.

I'd like to keep the gradual shading in the picture but it's a challenge. I'm all for it though.

ehhhh. I need to experiment more with but if that doesn't work, and I can't find a suitable secondary dark shade to |||, I'll need to scrap the idea of using multiple shades altogether and keep the thing monotone.

Also I barely know what to do with the eyes and teeth, trying to draw an outline for white spaces but it's not panning out unless I use pipes on both sides of the pixels, which seems like it draws the eye so I'm hesitant to do it.

I'll work on it more while at work.

Looks good so far. I was wondering if you'd try to keep the pixelated look or smooth it out.

Just do what you think works. I'm sure it will look great.

I mean yeah I could just shrink the image and do Patamon style like normal, but I'm having more fun this way. I am like the anime boy, practicing a new move mid fight until he nails it and then immediately comes up with a stupid name for it. Tune in next week for my next "style".

I just don't see much reason to use it. And because it's a solid line and thus more noticeable, it should only be used sparingly, like < and >.
