My entry for #1Bit0Ref. One hour speed painting, give or take a bit because I was having technical issues and also ended up having to end the recording a before I was completely done. Time lapse in the comments. #noAI #ドット絵 #pixelart #speedpainting

Person having a moment, while a thick liquid is pouring on them. I can't explain it better than that, it is kind of abstract.

I lived through a time when most anime was illegal. The only way to watch some was to trade VHS's at school. So my first and by that virtue influential ones were hyper violent/sexual anime of the 80s and 90s. With American dubs that gave them utterly different context compared to the original work 😵‍💫

I finally had an opportunity to see @markcousinsfilm.bsky.social's The Story Of Looking. Brilliant documentary about seeing, being seen, losing sight and remembering. What is something you've lost sight of, but still remember clearly?

Film poster for The Story Of Looking, showing Dziga Vertov's machine eye and an unknown man standing on top of a rooftop.

So since @bethesdastudios.com is in the news again right now, I wanted to draw attention to the Bethsoft that *I* remember: the incredible team that brought us Morrowind. No item or thing describes what kind of transparent, community focused company they used to be better than Lord Brinne's ashes.

"The Ashes of Lord Brinne are dedicated as tribute to Bill Iburg, a former regular at The Elder Scrolls Forums, who passed away during production of Morrowind.

The ashes can be found inside an urn in Samarys Ancestral Tomb."

Emulating style and body proportions over from larger concept drawings to a smaller sprite was... interesting. But now I have a template, so I'm assuming I won't need two days for this again. #PixelArt #gamedev #ドット絵

I guess this counts as my first gamedev post? Just trying out a couple new things, including a Gimp feature I wasn't using correctly up until now. I also limited my time. Good exercise. #PixelArt #ドット絵 #Gamedev Lossless, high res version of this and other pixel on my Discord gallery at: AMP7DXGZ

Nightly scene. Distant moonlit ocean, rock formations, a strange hole and a distant tower of sorts.

The final result. The sketch further down was supposed to be a small study for a much larger WIP, but I ended up liking it so much I had to do something with it. with @greblin.bsky.social #PixelArt #vtuber #DeathStranding #ドット絵
