Pixel Sheep

Since I am into spinning my own wool in my mundane life, I am finding myself thinking of
wool related things for tutorials. Hense another Sheep tutorial...LOL

#1 Open a NEW image 50X50. ZOOM in to about 1000% or 1200%, which ever is easier
for you to be able to see the pixels as you place them on your canvas.

#2 Click on your Paintbrush Tool, use the settings below..

#3 Even though you will be outlining the sheep in BLACK, some people like the idea of a
"Color Chart" showing the different number of pixels to use in different colors. As this
makes it easier to count pixels and one does not get cross-eyed. With your Foreground color
set to BLACK, use the color chart below to outline your sheep.

#4 When you are done outlining the sheep, you will have something like this.
I have used a white background so that you can see it more clearly.

#5 With your Magic Wand. Tolerance 0, Contiguous CHECKED, click inside the
sheeps head and Flood Fill with BLACK. Select None.

#6 With the Magic Wand, SAME settings, click insdie the sheeps body. Add a
NEW Raster layer and Flood Fill this with WHITE. KEEP selected.

#7 Still on your WHITE body layer, click the Paintbrush and in the drop down window,
click on Marble2.

#8 Using a dark grey as your foreground color, position the paintbrush
over the body and click two to three times over the white section. It will look blurry,
but it will be okay when it is normal size. Select NONE. Merge/Merge Visible.

#9 Being as this is a tiny pixel image, I did not feel that eyes would be a good idea.
But if you prefer to add eyes, then you can do it now.

#10 Now you can Export as a tube so that you will have it for later use.
