Tutorials

From someone who has never made ANSI art to a finished piece on IRC, one skill at a time. Each tutorial builds on the ones before it.

1. What ANSI art is
2. Your first piece
3. Pixels with half blocks
4. Shading: the ladder
5. Shading: forms and falloff
6. Light
7. Detail
8. Composing a scene
9. Layers and projects
10. Letters and text
11. Made for IRC
12. Scripts and generators

Each tutorial has a goal and the finished piece, the idea behind it, the steps in Blockwright with a picture after each, what goes wrong and how it looks, and a short exercise with a file to start from.
