I guess I officially stepped onto a new path in life. I'm tired of counting only on my 9-to-5. The job market is a joke. I see more scams than real job offers. Just draining me of my data with no real goal. So I may as well risk it with a new idea and maybe a new career. Wish me luck!

Hey! I want to proudly announce, that game, where I had full visual creative freedom to do anything just came out! It's a cozy puzzle game, where you are a crab mama, trying to save your lost babies. Play the demo on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4525880/... #gamedev #demo #release #puzzle

Snake talk to me Snake ! Snake! Snaaaake! I put them on the line too quickly and blue needed a repaint after that. So my Hades 2 based „snake” got decapitated. #cosplay #hekate #hades2 #3d #3dprinting

Hekate hat. +100 to being anonymous. Bonus is doubled if the target is higher than you! Beads are waiting to be printed and added to the hat. I will make and paint the front emblem separately before attaching it to the hat. WIP, but this part is done! #hades2 #art #cosplay #selfie #witch #gaming

New additions to the set just came to me. Now I have all the official armies to paint! (I still never played it, but I wanted minis soo badly) I skipped the Cove, cause it’s a unofficial mod. Rest is here ^^ #boardgame #heroes3 #minis

Slane the Winter Dragon was a big scare for me in Divinity Original Sin 2 game. But he end up being pretty decent dragon with manners - as long as I had them as well. Great designed encounter! Photo by: @byaleksandrajedruch (IG) #dos #divinity #boardgame #miniaturepainting @larianstudios.com

It's somehow ended to be my most beloved mini. And it wasn't even ton of work. It's just very accurate with a game card colors, what makes it really special for me. Photo by: @byaleksandrajedruch (IG) Mini is from Heroes of Might and Magic III board game. #miniature #boardgame #unicorns #painting

These are two smallish paintings I finished as part of my new mini-custom offering. They're tidy and just a wee bit dark... The cat, I painted on a cradled wood panel. The Ten of Swords, on gallery-wrapped canvas.

Temporary I'm full of hatred towards Hekate circles from Hades 2. But I've done it! I have a freaking 3D model ready to print. Both the front - small one and the back - bigger one, that I cutted, cause my friend is not having big enough printer for it. #cosplay #hekate #hades2 #3d #3dprinting

I seen the sadest view today in the local park. I’m sad for whatever person spilled the box of puzzles. I wonder what the image was. 🤔

Some of my art process with some thoughts about tracing. Circles with animals are inspired with circus and made for AR puproses (sharp edges, a lot of circles and semi circular shapes) It's my first story time video. Let me know if you like it. 😊 #art #tracing #circus #cartoon #AR

Since AI isn't stealing, are we legalising tracing?

Short talk about tracing in art. I wonder what is the current state on where the line is and what we consider as crossing it. For some additional info - this commission was canceled cause suddenly t...

This is a project that I made long time ago. But I forgot to make less messy photos before I send it to the client. But I think we have enough of fake, clean photos. So... I decided to post it anyway, cause I loved doing this Ahsoka headpiece. Enjoy! #starwars #cosplay #evafoam

Ruby Graves (Life and Tech Art) @rubygraves.bsky.social · 20/03/2026

I wonder what I should make next (I keep everything unpainted until I have everything) 🤔 Part of me want to avoid sewing at all costs, so I may be doing foam parts first and some 3D printing cause I refuse to do fancy circles like on the hat by hand again XD #Hades2 #cosplay #selfie #wip #evafoam

Ruby Graves (Life and Tech Art) @rubygraves.bsky.social · 18/03/2026

This pattern was a mess to recreate. It’s only on Hekate #conceptart It is not really used inside the game or animations. But I loved it, sooo… here we are! Almost fully made out of foam. It is held flat by a piece of half plastic carton. #Hades2 #cosplay #gaming #wip #evafoam

Everybody now raging about Pickmon. Meanwhile Guardians of the Wild Sky is doing a great job (on demo level) to be flying islands and airships themed Palworld + Valheim kind of game. You can abordage the enemy ships or shoot them down from afar! All along cute creatures.

I'm not a cat person, but I'm in love with Whisk! It's a demo for 2 players, that you all need to try out! Gameplay is a puzzle/speedrun mix. All stylised to feel like cozy watercolors! #cute #whisk #cats #demo #game #watercolors

Painted with the mouse in Passpartout 2. I dig doing sepia colors. Overall I think I enjoyed first game a bit more. It feels a bit too sluggish and less lively in a way. Town is rarely really active. But I'm still all in for painting game concept! #mousepainting #art #monochrome #flowers #game

I have a new addiction. And it's a filled with rabbits one. XD I love their idea of making a game inspired by MMO raid bosses. Since mechnics are fun to play with friends why gatekeep them behind the grind? Also anime ref alert in the thumbnail! #roguelike #coop #bullethell #bunnies #rabbits

This guy is definitely winning the creep award in my book. Merchant ofering things from his body to the child. Yeaaaah. XD The game is: Lost in Random Totally recommend so far, especialy if you liked The Midnight Walk weirdness. #gaming #screenshot #creepy #caricature

Did you ever imagine how scary is for a child to look at the adult? Here is the example from Bad Cheese game. :P #gaming #screenshot #horror

When you decide, that this year you become a fairy. But not a normal, sweet, cute one. You want a goth fairy! So your main idea for the wings is to make them stained glass like. How did I do? #fairy #fantasy #crafting #foam #wings #art

I've found my indie discovery of the year! I didn't know that I can get a cliche mash story, that is SOO FREAKING GOOD as it is in The Drifter. We have mad scientists, time travel, detective, missing people and other typical themes merged together perfectly in one point'n'click game. <3

Guess what NES game I was mimicking, while making those. It's a bit of an exercise, a bit of honoring old game I loved. #retro #gaming #pixelart

I think it's definitely worth sharing. Polish guy is doing amazing job remaking Rayman 3. I loved this game and I hope we will be able to see this project in full glory someday! The first stage if fully playable and polished, so give it a try! #gaming #rayman #remake
