I've been working on this piece for the final boss of Pokemon Salt and Shadow for my mate @reubencovington.bsky.social I hope she's an appropriately unnerving end to that game lol eeveeexpo.com/salt-and-sha... #pixelart #fangame #pokemon

Terrifying octopus lady crying while lying down. The scene is solely lit by her tears illuminating the inky blackness of the bottom of the ocean

I haven't had work in months. I'm a good art director, expert pixel artist, and although I prefer to do art, I can also make entire games from start to finish if necessary, as pictured. Not the greatest coder, but I get the job done (like Chapell Roan I guess). please share

Lolol I just had someone legitimately ask me if I can do two custom pieces of my pixel mtg cards which are high res, in a week, for the cost of 20$. Like buddy, I could get you one in that timeframe maybe. but certainly not for 20$ XD

A pixel art alter of the Magic the Gathering Card Alesha, Who Smiles at Death, but done in an over the top trans pride style. Alesha is riding a Blahaj, has trans pride thigh high socks, trans pride coloured hair, and a trans pride frame and text box. She is kicking her foot out, and "NO Hate" is written on the sole of her foot. In the background is the Mardu horde holding trans pride Mardu banners.

I want to be clear about where we stand with the EO: The battlefield is now revealed. We know the pieces on it and their plans. It doesn't mean its lost or immediate. But Trump has fired his first shot. Implementation will take time and challenges are sure to come. Stay strong, its a marathon.

Media and digital literacy are key to disrupting disinformation. --clapping back/arguing just helps to amplify bad faith accounts & false material --don't share "funny" disinfo to dunk on it; some will still believe it --BLOCK, REPORT, and tell others to do same *without* sharing disinfo content

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer. These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP. You can follow his remarkable reporting here👇 www.instagram.com/ethanswopeph...

A street is orange from flames and you can see the high winds in the palm trees. Sparks fly down the street

A fire truck is engulfed in parks and flames are seen on the hill. The entire photo is red and orange from the fire

A fireman with a hose runs across the front of a house in flames in the background

The inside of a house is a ball of flames. The only visible thing inside is a burning Christmas tree

My gift for this year pixeljoint secret Santa, for @magickbird.bsky.social #pixelart

Pixel art mockup. Top down scenery in a snow forest by night. An old industrial car on skis is lighting up the scene. 2 detectives in black coats are standing in front of a naked corpse pierced by a black stick. A dialog box with a portrait of the detective, tied hair, with her hat in her hand. In the other side, dialog portrait of the corpse.
Text : does he know, you ask yourself. Doesn't matter. You feel his gaze, and the silence is breaking you. You must say something. 3 choices of dialog: i know him (deceiving) who was your informant again (persuasion) why are we dealing with dead vampires (innocence)

Listen, if you want your favorite creators and artists to embrace this website you gotta REPOST THEIR SHIT. We need as much exposure as we can get and even if you can't afford to pitch in to a Patreon or for merch and stuff, just sharing links on social media helps a lot. SHARE THEM SKEETS.

Heya, I'm Athena. I'm a pixel artist and game dev based in Australia. I made the game Kana Quest, and made a whole lot of the art for the game Vactics. When I'm not making games I make pixel art alters for magic cards.
