Farm lesson 6: hay bale
A hay bale next to the chickens, 12 by 8 pixels. A soft block with straw lines and a lit top.
This sprite is wide. It's easier to draw on a computer, or with your phone turned sideways.
Step 1
This step also removes a few pixels. Use the eraser where the guide fades a pixel out.
