I used the Fill tool (F) to color the interior brown and re-positioned the selection slightly lower on the canvas. To create the coffee, I duplicated the ‘mug’ layer and deleted all but the mug interior from the new layer. I used the Fill tool (G) to color the stripes around the mug. I capped off the ends of the shape with the Line tool (L) and used the Fill tool (G) to fill the shape. Clicking each of the two corresponding reference points, I dragged out the ellipse and deleted any unwanted areas with Marquee Select (S) and Backspace.
Using the Line tool (L) and Shift key grid snap, I created reference points for the mug handle ellipses. Returning to the Super Shape tool (L), I dragged a diameter horizontally and held down Alt to expand the ellipse vertically from the diameter center. Holding down Shift snaps the lines to the grid. I switched to the Line tool (L) and added edges to the mug. I positioned each curve at 2 trixel intervals. Using the Marquee Select tool (S), I copied and pasted the lower half of the ellipse seven times while holding shift to align each selection vertically. The ellipse has blue control points that allow you to resize, move or scale the shape before committing. I performed the second mouse click and expanded the visible ellipse 5 trixels along the X axis before clicked again. Before my second mouse click, I held down the Alt key to change the diameter line into the radius, doubling the diameter length. This initial trixel line is the ellipse diameter. I clicked once and moved the cursor 5 trixels along the Z axis. Holding Shift while drawing an Ellipse snaps the cursor to the grid.
The Super Shape tool (L) can be found under the shape tools sub-menu on the left toolbar. I changed the Brush Size and selected the Pixel Square brush from the drop-down brush preset menu. I created a new pixel layer and changed my background and grid colors in the Document tab for clarity.
HEXELS 2 ISOMETRIC 1080P
I was aiming for a high resolution with pixelated edges, so the Pixel Trixels 1080p template was ideal. I painted various tabletop objects using pixel layers and the tablecloth on a vector layer. Let’s take a quick look at how the Super Shape tool was used to create some of the objects in this isometric breakfast scene.
HEXELS 2 ISOMETRIC FULL
Developed with full control and isometric drawing in mind, this incredible tool can be used with grid snapping and opens up possibilities that were previously a real Hexels head-scratcher. With Hexels 3.1 comes the addition of the Super Shape tool.
