tutorials
Tip
Step one to learning any skill is always: "Study The Masters"
teXt0wnz contains a built in library of ANSI drawing tutorials. The tutorials section contains 20+ hand-collected works spanning decades of the scene. Each entry showcases unique techniques, styles, and the vision of a talented artist. I spent hours combing through the 16colors archives to pick the ones i felt best expressed the basics of this art-form.
The tutorials themselves are just normal ANSI art files. Viewing a tutorial simply opens the file in the editor. This allows you to test the techniques and play around with the samples in their native context.
Each entry contains artist and release information linking back to their original sources for further exploration

Over the years, many people have expressed a desire to drawn text art. But the lack of formal training or educational materials can be intimidating. The goal of this feature (the project) is to empower artists with the tools and information they need to experiment, grow, and create.
