Been getting into #traditional drawing. Pretty proud of this one. Went for hatching like you'd see in #manga. I want to eventually get to making my own #artist

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

Didn't have my eraser so I decided to attempt doing a skull in 15 minutes. I suppose it could have been worse #art #anatomy #traditionalart #learning

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 04/04/2026

Drew a side profile of a simplified skull. I know it's not perfect but for a first try I'm satisfied

Garlicula. Not sure why screentones on csp export so poorly. #csp #digitalart

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 01/02/2026

Working on a little garlic for my wife. So far coming out well and it feels like it looks nicer than my last #digitalart #art

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 23/01/2026

Decided to search #digitalart and got flashbanged with a ton of furry shit. What a terrible day to have eyes

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 22/01/2026

Finally got back into drawing and decided to get back into digital art instead of pixel art this time #2D #digitalart #digital #art

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 10/09/2025

I finished Nona and Dee as much as I plan to on my phone until I draw them at a higher resolution on Aesprite. Dee is considered a death god and dragonflies are seen as messengers of death. Nona is from a little village who was kidnapped (1/2). #pixelart #indiedev #OC

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 03/09/2025

I'd say Nona is done. Now to create her new bound friend. #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 31/08/2025

Made this Chameleon Knight for someone. Was hoping it to be a commission but there was a misunderstanding. One day I may be good enough to be paid #pixelart #OC

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 29/08/2025

Been thinking of a character duo I've been wanting to do lately. I'll have to give more info as I work on it but this is the start. The young girl Nona. She would star as the protagonist of a Metroidvania I've had in mind #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 24/08/2025

Been a while but finally got time to finish the directions for the red wizard. It didn't save for some reason last time so I had to redo it. #indie #indiedev #pixelart

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 07/08/2025

Feeling a little more confident in my tileset. Just needs some tweaks and it'll be ready. Well and 1 or 2 more variants then it's to the environmental breakables #indie #pixelart #indiedev

080

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 02/08/2025

Been trying to make an evil witches garden tileset and so for this is what I have but man it has been hell to make even that. Grass is weirdly hard. #pixelart #indiedev #gamedev

0103

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 29/07/2025

Alright so after looking into stuff a bit I made another change to the red wizard and I think I made it better even #pixelart #gamedev

072

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 25/07/2025

Redid the red wizard sprite in #aesprite since we decided to change our direction a bit and I feel I've gotten better at adding some depth to my #pixelart. Maybe now we can get the game moving #gamedev With all the things going on in my personal life it's hard to get motivation

0112

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 22/07/2025

#pixelart slapped together a helmet while I was waiting around on my phone earlier. Better than when I'm trying

020

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 12/07/2025

How convenient that I made this #eggplant enemy not long ago. Not the best but it works for a future demo #pixelart

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 11/07/2025

Having a toddler with up to a 104.8 degree fever is probably one of the hardest things emotionally I've ever been through but luckily it only lasted about 3 days. The fever broke and little man is all smiles and crazy again

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 06/07/2025

#pixelart #gamedev I enjoy making these little icons for my weapons and artifacts. I feel like enough of them do a decent job in a 16x16 canvas

Now our programmer is having PC issues. Just #gamedev things

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 26/06/2025

A reminder that I have a Fiverr account linked to my bio. I am focusing on #pixelart and you could consider my current project part of my portfolio on my skill. Here's a border for a button in our upcoming game as well. Luckily we are moving into the main portion of the game soon

000

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 26/06/2025

Finished a secondary border that'll be used for things like character selection and the like in our UI. #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

0143

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 24/06/2025

What a happy birthday to me spending it unemployed and recovering from surgery. Well I suppose things can still be worse. This too shall pass. On a much happier note I've hit a final design for the main UI border. I think it's pretty good just need all the details. #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

0184

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 23/06/2025

I have to my shock found creating an interesting border for different UI elements more difficult than the sprites for characters and enemies. But hitting a stride here and there makes it all the better #pixelart #gamedev

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 16/06/2025

Corn boy is done. Just need a simple animation. Getting closer to making my first large sprite is almost scary but I'm up to the task #gamedev #pixelart

0112

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 15/06/2025

I definitely struggle with the idea of not drawing every individual thing (especially with 32x32 sprites) but making texture to insinuate the individuals. Hopefully I can make this corn enemy look good #gamedev #pixelart

051

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 13/06/2025

It might be just a frame of animation but when it'll be a horde of veggies it'll be effective #gamedev #pixelart #pixel

Dangus is Pixel Art

As I learn pixel art I'd love to be able to make it for others and eventually live as a game artist.

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 12/06/2025

Making our first level enemies. The Witch's Garden. Here's my angry tomato #pixelart #art #gamedev

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 24/05/2025

Some friends and I are making a game and I'm making some assets. First one is t posing fire wizard. #gamedev #art #pixelart

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 11/04/2025

Been working at this to give a final line art #oc #art #digitalart

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 08/04/2025

Pretty much just made this harsh difference in color to give myself an idea of where I want colors but Apsilon will have one half that's nearly black for shadows #art #digitalart #oc

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 04/04/2025

Been working on a profile picture my friend's D&D character. Apsilon Erkval #art #digitalart

I finally finished my villain Reynard Xulldren. A wizard corrupted by eldritch magic. #art #digitalart

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 20/03/2025

Been figuring out how to do my shadows better and I'm very happy with how this is going. Hopefully lighting will be just as good #art #digitalart

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 15/03/2025

The progress is painfully slow between work, family and my own concentration #art #digitalart

040

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 07/03/2025

Managed to get the colors all in and get the symbol I made for him attached to the mask. Now I just have to figure out how to do shadows and I can start making this detailed. I don't know how people do this stuff so well #art #digitalart

040

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 04/03/2025

Taking time to get done but I'm enjoying how this is coming out #art #digitalart

040

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 01/03/2025

Time has not been kind to me lately. Too exhausted for drawing most of the time lately. Trying to do little things here and there. Working on a pfp of a villain I came up with playing DND when I was really into Death Stranding. At least I'm doing the lighting different.

020

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 11/02/2025

I have to enjoy the times that I see these odd mistakes that I didn't really notice at first. Never drew a human so I suppose I'm still doing fine. Just a little transformation to help

010

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 05/02/2025

I haven't posted anything at all in a while. I decided on a whim to do a drawing of a friend's OC to practice drawing humanoids. I'd say for the fact that I've never drawn anything like this at all it's not bad. Obviously a wip. #art #digitalart

080

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 17/01/2025

I think I can call this one done. I do love doing these painting type things but one of these times I want to get back to drawing characters and the like #art #digitalart #digitalpainting

061

DANGUS @dangus-sunborn.bsky.social · 17/01/2025

I am fairly happy with how this came out #art #digitalart
