How to Draw a Pixel Art Space Ship

Ever wanted to draw pixel art space ships but don't know where to start? You didn't? Oh, okay, then maybe you need some space ships for your game. Unless you want some amazing looking space ships in your game (which only a professional can draw), or you need a bunch of space ships yesterday, I see no reason why you should buy PIXEL ART space ships. Like, seriously, you can draw these yourself with some time and effort. 

I'm going to teach you how to draw your own pixel art space ship. Nothing fancy, but it will do the job. Here's what you'll need: 

• any software that has some kind of symmetry function in it (the picture is split in half, and what you draw on the left will be mirrored to the right);
• any software that has a pencil brush (because we're doing pixel art and we don't need any anti-aliasing);
• one day when you're not busy to study this tutorial and practice.

That's it! Ready to make your first ship? Let's go! 

Note: This is NOT a video tutorial; just some pictures put together that explain my process of creating these type of ships. 

PS. Oh, and in case you're thinking, "But I have no talent, I can't do this! I'm just a programmer." All I have to say to that is: Stop it. You can do anything you put your mind to. Stop limiting yourself. There's growth in being uncomfortable.
