Pixel Art VS Hand Drawn Characters and Tiles? Topic

Recently I got a hold of Adobe Illustrator and I've really been enjoying creating vector images out of thing and turning them into enemies in RPG Maker games I've been making. I had the idea though, that what if I hand drew the characters and tiles and then resized them to fit RPG Maker, how would that look and would it be possible?

Has anybody done that before? Hand drew stuff and then scanned it into their computer for RPG Maker? Or is it better to sort of stick to just drawing that kind of thing with pixel art?

If you want to resize the pictures you drew for RPG Maker, it'll depend on which version of RPG Maker you're using. Using it on 2k/3 will lower it's quality a little.
But if it's on XP/VX/Ace, then I believe it'll be fine.

And yes, people do draw and scan, and also do pixel art. Either way, it all comes down to what you prefer.

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Okay, I think I'm going to attempt to do it all hand drawn. My only qualm is that I don't feel that my art is good, just that if I put it all together it would kind of fit. It would be unique to me. I guess in the end, all I can do is try and see what people think. I'm really curious what people will say about it, haha.

I feel the same way about my art, but think about it this way - if your art sucks, it's not gonna get any better if you don't make more of it.
