Damn, I painted this little snail and I guess it tried to crawl away when I wasn't looking 🐌

A sumi-e painting of a snail. Behind it, a trail of ink resembling a snail trail.

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this amazing PHONEME CHART by theendisnearus on deviantart (deviantart.com/theendisnearus). Great for ANIMATION, or if you draw COMICS, drawing your characters mouths in the shape of the LAST syllable in you SPEECH BUBBLE often works very well!

#Asemulator news! Asemulator has entered its final testing phase! Last few weeks have been all about fixing bugs and adding QoL features while finalizing the demo sprites. Being able to use the final product is like a dream come true. Can't wait for you all to experience it!

Every time I finish a watercolor painting, I'm left with a bunch of small palette dishes that I could never get rid of, so I end up hoarding colors all around my board. These in particular are a mix of Daler Rowney Aquafine and Yasutomo watercolors. #watercolor #color #paint #art #appreciation

Definitely the #gameboy needed more amazons. I am seeing to that. 🏋️‍♀️ I'm not convinced of the background art, probably I'll fix it later. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #pixelart #ドット絵 #gbstudio #gameboyart

Me and my wife started watching the X-Files for the first time, and the script strongly reminded me of the early 90s Lucas Art's adventure games. I couldn't help but to make a mockup of how I saw it. I used @pixquare-app.bsky.social with the ENDESGA 32 palette. #pixelart #xfiles #mulder #scully
