Did a painting of Marvin the Martian using only q-tips. After that I finger-painted the background to make the background look more opaque #marvinthemartian #looneytunes #marvin #marvinmartian #martian #alien

Marvin is holding his ray gun with his right hand against a purple background. He has his left hand on his hip. He is looking a bit towards the top left corner.

sega is also using AI-generated images in the discord server for their content creator program aiai is horribly disfigured in this image... also, it's ironic that they're using a monkey ball character here when monkey ball wasn't even a selectable option when signing up for this very program!

A Twitter post from @TheTrueBrenden that says:

"I wasn't invited to this stupid ass content creator thing but I also wanna note I found out they use ai generated artwork in the discord server!

isn't this company great? they sure do what nintendont am I right! 💙🧡❤️"

A screenshot of a banner posted in Discord is attached. In the center, the word "quest" is written in all capital letters in front of a Sonic-style ring, with Tails (from Sonic) to the left and Aiai (from Super Monkey Ball) and Ichiban (from Yakuza/Like A Dragon) to the right. This banner includes some obviously AI-generated elements. Aiai in particular looks awful, with a disfigured right arm and a strange-looking tail (he does not even have a tail normally).

I graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree today! So I decorated my cap with Marvin the Martian and Easel! #supermonkeyball #looneytunes #marvinthemartian #easel #monkeyball #marvinmartian #marvin

An acrylic marker painting of:
On the left, Marvin the Martian from Looney Tunes saluting to the viewer while flying against a mauve-Prussian blue gradient background, &
On the right, Easel from Super Monkey Ball waving his cape then spreading his arms out while flying against a yellow-orange gradient background.
Both are separated by a purple squiggly line with a solid metallic purple circle in the middle.
I used acrylic markers and metallic purple acrylic paint.

I played the Super Monkey Ball browser game and actually managed to find the character sprite sheet. Then I started to make sprites for Easel. It’s still a WIP btw because I just got started #supermonkeyball #easel #monkeyball #sega

Here’s what I think Easel and Palette’s house looks like. A 2-story mansion with an interior filled with crimson and gold patterns. #supermonkeyball #supermonkeyballbananarumble #palette #easel #monkeyball #sega

An interior view of Easel and Palette’s 2-story mansion home. There are crimson walls with pillars, and between those pillars are accent gold and crimson Persian patterns, with one them having a wall light. A maroon staircase with a crimson base is seen on the left, with black steel railings, with a gold, banana-shaped top at the entrance to the staircase.

A bag based on the star gem from the Gem Heist battle mode game from Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble that I made myself! #supermonkeyball #supermonkeyballbananarumble #monkeyball #SEGA #gem #diy #crafts #crafting #sewing

A gold, 5-point star gem bag, based on the star gem from the Gem Heist battle mode game in Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble. It has thick gold string handles. The edges are made from Arteza metallic fabric and the sides are made from black fabric painted entirely in gold. Both sides it has an emerald green and ruby magenta plush star in the center, with 2/5 of it being emerald green and the other 3/5 of it being ruby magenta. The plush stars in the centers are made of Arteza metallic fabric. The bag also has 5 small gems on each side which are red, orange, yellow, green, and blue and are made from pipe cleaners. The yellow ochre lines surrounding the plush stars are drawn using an Arrtx acrylic paint marker.

Easel is back! So, I did make some changes to the cosplay. I painted silver lines near the edges of them. I also made the ascot more triangular by replacing the modified store-bought one with one that I made entirely by hand. #supermonkeyball #easel #supermonkeyballbananarumble #SEGA #cosplay

I did a redraw of a scene from Banana Rumble’s release trailer of Easel putting a green OOPArts gem in his right pocket, swinging his cape, and looking slightly downward. #supermonkeyballbananarumble #supermonkeyball #monkeyball #easel #sega #smb

I drew Easel with POSCA colored pencils with the help of Pigma Micron black ink fine pens on a piece of a brown paper bag! #supermonkeyball #easel #supermonkeyballbananarumble #monkeyball #sega #smb #art #drawing #traditionaldrawing

On a bright umber background, Easel is looking up to the top left corner while he smiles. His right hand and right foot are facing forward and his left hand and left foot are facing away. His cape is also flying towards the middle right corner after waving it with his left hand.

#KnoxRobbinsArt Super Monkeybone Ball! Uh oh! Time for some monkey madness today. I had been thinking about doing a Monkey Ball piece and then everything came together when I also decided to also base it on Monkey Bone (that Brendan Fraser / Henry Selick movie.) A buncha early 2000s monkeys in one.

Monkey Bone invades a perfectly fine game of Super Monkey Ball in a strange land, as AiAi, YanYan and GonGon react to the intruder kicking the Baby to FALL OUT course.

I got a new home 2 days ago, and joined a rock painting class at the clubhouse. Then painted a portrait of Shinobu. #demonslayer #shinobu #shinobukocho #anime #infinitycastle

Portrait of Shinobu on a rock. She is on a purple background. Due to the type of paint that was provided to me, I kind of ended up messing up her eyes, but I’m very happy with how she turned out.

I’ve recently watched the latest episode of The Amazing Digital Circus, “Untitled”, and haven’t yet done fanart of it, so I did one of Pomni! #theamazingdigitalcircus #pomni #TADC #glitch #digitalcircus #amazingdigitalcircus

Pomni is on a blurred red, yellow, and blue background. She is panicked, and bending her left knee.

I think that Palette and Easel closely resemble spider monkeys due to their great ability to control their long tails and them having pointed ears. #supermonkeyball #supermonkeyballbananarumble #sega
