An Overwatch-themed commission for a friend of mine! This one really pushed my limits, but I'd say it's the ultimate payoff of my practice lately! #overwatch #furryart #pixelart #commissionsopen

My half of the art trade with @bushous.bsky.social It's been a while since I've done any art, and what better way to get out of a slump than some good old accountability from a friend ^^;

Part of an art trade with @bushous.bsky.social ! I'll be posting my part later this week :))

PIXEL ARTISTS, share your pixel art here! I really want to create more landscapes and background art. Turns out it's nothing like character design. I have a few inspirations to work based on, but I want to see your approaches!

Made some steam capsules for the game my friend @nore5515.bsky.social and I have been working on together! This is our first published game and I'm thrilled to have been a part of it. The Steam page will be up ASAP! #indiedev #Floodpunk #pixelart #gameart #Steam

Amy and Gamma from Sonic Adventure! My two favorite campaigns (story-wise) from the game, cool little goobie woobies. #art #pixelart #Sonic #waow #SonicTheHedgehog

Forgot to post this piece I did for @winterthebern.bsky.social! It was really good practice more than anything, and I needed to move on to other projects, so I skipped over a few details to get it finished. I'm still pretty proud of how it turned out though! #furry #pixelart #furryart

Been playing around with color and lighting a lot lately. Here's a couple random doodles I did for practice while I work on AE stuff! #pixelart #furryart #art #indiedev

Here's my WIP rig for reference while I'm animating CODEx!

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 07/03/2025

Been playing around more with how I want to tell After Elysium, and I've finally come to a point where I think it's realistic for me to work on! I'm currently making animated sprites for this guy to wander around the game. #indiedev #pixelart #gameart

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 28/02/2025

Recently realized After Elysium might work better as a game and I went to redesign CODEx to look more interesting as an animated sprite. I'm quite pleased with what I have so far! (colors are placeholders so I can tell what I'm looking at.) #indiedev #pixelart #spriteart #gameart

I've recently had the help of my good friend @nore5515.bluesky.social in creating my new website/portfolio. With that said, I'm opening commissions to the public so go check it out if you're interested! corvidcadaver.github.io

Another commission done for a friend! I'm really enjoying painting these mountains! Character by @mossmaker.bsky.social

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 16/01/2025

Been doing some supplementary commission work lately to help pay for some stuff and this one was pretty experimental for me, but I'm really happy with how it turned out! It also made me realize I could probably advertise commissions on here too, so stay tuned for prices! #pixelart #furryart #furry

Been a minute since I've posted anything. Life threw me a few curve-balls but I'm back at it! In the meantime, have an updated reference sheet for Bastion I did a few weeks ago.

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 01/12/2024

I still really want to work on my main project (you know, the one I made this page for). But every time I try I feel like my skills aren't at the level I want them to be at for it and it stops being fun to work on. However, I can see this happening indefinitely. Any advice?

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 16/11/2024

Made this little creature as a redesign of an old character I made several years ago. What do y'all think? Is it an improvement? (the new one is the pixel art)

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 09/11/2024

I've recently gotten really serious about my art and would love some advice on how to make my pixel art pop a little more. Sometimes I feel like it's a bit flat?

Just a little something I did as a profile pic for @lilmayo.bsky.social 🐸

It's hard to want to start working on my passion project when I'm scared I'll never realistically meet my expectations for myself. I don't feel burnt out, but I'm about to have no side projects in progress and I'll have no more excuses. How do I stop dreading doing what I want to do?

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 01/11/2024

I have insider info that this guy has crazy potential. Be sure to give them a follow if you are interested in supporting small indie devs! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

I finally completed my first drawing challenge, #inktober! I learned a lot from it and I'm really proud of myself for seeing it through to the end. There are a few references that I'd love to see if anyone recognizes (aside from the obvious lol). That said, I'm looking forward to using colors again!

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 26/10/2024

This is one of the coolest uses of a pattern I've ever seen

Wanted to share some of my animations for an older project I'd worked on in the past. I'm actually pretty proud of these guys even though I think I could do it better today.

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 24/10/2024

Here's a fun little animation I did of Bastion walking around an Exaclyct outpost. I wasn't really sure on the background colors, but I'm pretty happy with how the walk cycle turned out! gifyu.com/image/SOQS0

This is Petra, another Plumauris like Bastion. I don't really know where she fits into the lore yet, but I think she's neat.

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 24/10/2024

Well, it's certainly been a while. I took a break from the project to focus on refining my art skills, and I return with a cool new character just for fun. As for the main project, expect more to come later. In the meantime, I'll be posting Inktober stuff at the end of the month!

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 23/10/2023

I've been hard at work on the first chapter, and I have to say, I'm pretty stoked seeing it all coming together. That said, it IS difficult balancing life and a full-time job with my art, but I'm still chugging along. So stay tuned, and I'm sure that the first chapter will be out soon(ish)!

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 09/10/2023

I know it's not chapter 1, but it's clothes!

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 06/10/2023

Finished up the design for Codex! I'm super proud of how they've turned out. I'm so happy to finally have an official design for this character, even if they'll be wearing clothes over most of it. Stay tuned for more After Elysium. The first chapter is on its way!

Did some pixel art of one of the more important side characters, Bastion: Bastion is a freelance scavenger working for the Exalycts, a sort of intergalactic archeological organization that pay artisans across the universe to assist them in exploring unresearched locations. In this case, Daedalus.

Bastion @afterelysium.bsky.social · 29/09/2023

Some of the earliest sketches of my protagonist of After Elysium: C.O.D.Ex stands for Cartographic OmniDirectional Explorer. Though, the acronym implies a purpose, Codex's odyssey is one of self-identity. Codex awakens into the empty superstructure, known as Daedalus, with no previous memories.
