Been listening to an album called Metastar Hyperspace for the last month. It's a super fun album. I also really liked the character designs there, so decided to have a bit of fun with one of the characters "Orve" :3 #pixelart #aseprite #indie #animeart

I had the chance to read @b0nesaw.bsky.social 's manga Sky-Scorer (chapter 1), and I'm impressed. The art style is really captivating. Made some pixel art for it, as if it's a GBA fighting game. I had to draw Blam, kid's got spunk. #art #pixelartㅤ #fanart #gba #retro

The wait for deltarune chapter 6 is killing me. So to kill some time, I decided to make a gameboy pixel art movie poster. Best of luck to @tobyfox.undertale.com and @tuyoki.bsky.social! I'm sure it'll be good #Deltarune #PixelArt #Gameboy

Today I had some spare time to doodle. Wanted to practice scribbling as a drawing style, to perfect the chaotic yet ordered feel. I think I'm gonna call this one "Ashita Josuke" How about you guys? Wanna art share? #oc #mangaart #traditionalart #sketchbook #artshare

Been jammin' to temponaut for several weeks. If ya'll havent checked out BONESAW, do it! Can't get it out of my head. In the meantime I was inspired by the cover, so I had to sit down and draw it. 10/10 would listen again. #fanart #sketch #art #pencil #manga

Was recently working on my game engine's pixel art font renderer. To save myself time I mostly use pixel art to do everything, but I decided to add a bit of flair for the fonts. Figured it wasnt too hard to get it behaving more like vector fonts. #gamedev #indie #pixelart

Continuing work on the Sega Dreamcast RPG Elysian Shadows. I've worked more on combat movement, including dashing and sword slashes. It's now getting pretty fun to move about. #pixelart #gamedev #dreamcast #indie

Dashing mechanics are in! Speeding along with the Sega Dreamcast RPG Elysian Shadows, I'm making more progress than I originally expected. And yes, it feels really good to control too. #dreamcast #gamedev #indie

Steady progress for the Sega Dreamcast RPG Elysian Shadows! I've gotten in a decent prototype for character movement and multi-screen tilemap levels. It's now getting to a point I can start writing real game logic. #dreamcast #rpg #gamedev #indie

Working on UI for the Sega Dreamcast RPG Elysian shadows. I've got some nifty textboxes, but for everything else like health bars and buttoms we're gonna be primitive for now. #dreamcast #gamedev

More updates for the Sega Dreamcast RPG Elysian Shadows. This time I worked on a 4 directional character walking for my dreamcast controller. Moves like a top-down zelda game atm, and it feels pretty nice. Still tweaking it, but progress is progress. #dreamcast #gamedev #rpg

Back again with updates for the Sega Dreamcast RPG Elysian Shadows. For the last week I was working on tilemaps, and have an initial pass ready. More can always be done but I like the direction it's heading in. #pixelart #dreamcast #gamedev

More animations for the Sega Dreamcast RPG Elysian shadows. This time I'm focusing on a sideways run cycle. Decided to challenge myself by making it only 4 frames long (that way sprite sheet remains condensed). #pixelart #dreamcast #gamedev

At it again with more concept art for the Sega Dreamcast RPG: Elysian Shadows. This time a strapping fellow joins the party: Rand. He's quite the egotist, but he can back it up with cold, hard science. A passionate scholar... who's also a passionate drunkard. #art #pencil

Back again with more concept art for the Sega Dreamcast RPG: Elysian Shadows. A new party member joins the fray: Eryn! Nerdiest of bookworms, she's a feisty and passionate individual. As a scholar and digger, she spends her free time hunting for ancient artifacts. #art #pencil #indie #dreamcast

I recently joined an indie homebrew development team as an artist working on a new game for the Sega Dreamcast. It is an RPG called Elysian Shadows, and is in active development. First order of business was concept art for the party's main character, Julien. Stay tuned! #art #dreamcast #indie

I decided to practice some form of "real life" drawing, since I haven't really tried that before. So I gave it a shot with tyrrion lannister. It was hard, but I learned alot abotu how to use the pencil #art #pencil #gameofthrones #fanart
