"I want to start editing, where do I begin?"

deciding on a program to use

the first step of the process is deciding what you want to use to edit. the majority of people tend to use photopea or ibispaint. ibispaint generally seems to be the easier program to make graphics in, while photopea allows you to use coloring psds. mess around with a couple different programs and settle on one you think works for you.

getting started

the biggest question i see being asked the most would be "how do you make your graphics" which really has no set answer. everyone has a different process and i cant tell you exactly what to do to get to the level you want to be at, but i can suggest a place to start.

my first tip is to start out a bit smaller and to work your way up. start with making smaller things, like icons or simple layouts, and from there begin to move out of your comfort zone.

another thing i find helpful is to not shy away from asking for critique. other people can often point out things that seem off or things you could do differently that you wouldnt otherwise think of. even if you arent a new editor this is really helpful for improvement.

dont be afraid to take inspiration from things you see. of course dont 1:1 copy anything, but if you see something you like then dont be afraid to try it out. this doesnt just have to be others edits either, anything from art composition to magazine covers.

inspiration doesnt stop at just composition and graphic stuff, you can take inspiration for colors too. see a color scheme you like? bookmark it and try to edit something based off of it!

dont be afraid to ask questions (though, do research your question a bit before asking and see if you can find an answer there) i personally dont mind answering questions so feel free to ask!

helpful links

canarysage's blog (helpful tutorials + psd colorings!) my faq masterpost (a large collection of answers) purrfect tale discord server (an editing resource server) + feel free to suggest more links to add!

anyways, i hope this was helpful for someone. I was mostly just yapping but i think i was cohesive! happy editing!

DEAD PLATE OFFICIAL SOUNDTRACK IS NOW AVALIABLE ON YOUTUBE AND SPOTIFY composed by our talented BellKalengar!

Below are some official Dead Plate character facts that were shared on my twitter:

RODY - has a BIG appetite - prefers fast food more than anything fancy/gourmet - rarely gets sick/cold (he'd do fine after eating spoiled food/sleeping out in rainy streets for months) - surprisingly way stronger than he looks - hates anything bitter

VINCE - favorite food is lemons because it stings his tongue in a way that vaguely resembles taste - canonically gay [though any reading through the game is valid] (art done by co-developer @ekrixart)

MANON - enjoys baking! always turns out bitter though - her parents are food critics (art done by both me and my co-developer @ekrixart)
