Diving back into some hand painted art after a long hiatus. Block in seems to be going pretty smoothly so far, but there is a looooong ways to go yet. Ellen from ZZZ

Thought i'd share the video for my latest scene here too. I'm really pleased with the mood with the lighting, the rain, and the bits of movement from the vfx.

I have not posted any art in forever but I've been working on a bit of a love letter at home to one of my favorite games. Very work in progress at the moment, but I think it is far enough to share a little. This is all very first pass. No decals, no blending, still working out some areas.

Today I decided to rush out some small scatterable environment assets. I got 24 done. they're all bound to the same trimsheet. I have other 6 modeled but they don't fit in that TSheet, so I will get them done tomorrow. #Indie #Gaming #3dModeling #Rigging #Retro #gamedev, #indiegames #indiedev #Art

Looking to get some 11x17 art prints like what people sell at conventions and such. Are there any good sites for this? Looking to make sure that 1) sellers are the actual artists and not scrapers and 2) no AI slop. Trying to search generically is giving me a bunch of misses.
