Gecko pixel art questions
Why do the gecko's feet disappear?
Toe tips are often thinner than one logical pixel after reduction. Use a closer crop with margin around all four feet, and keep a contrasting background behind the toes.
Should every toe be drawn individually?
Only if the chosen scale supports it. A few separated tips can suggest a splayed foot more clearly than five tightly packed lines that merge on export.
How can I keep a curled tail from joining the body?
Leave a visible background gap inside the curl. If that gap closes at the native display size, widen it or simplify the curve before adding decorative spots.
Does the GIF show a walking gecko?
It moves the whole illustration in a gentle floating loop. The leg and toe positions stay fixed; it is not a separately drawn walking cycle.
Start with four feet and a curved tail
Choose the silhouette that suits your idea, then simplify its toe gaps and tail curve before refining the color palette.
