I touched up a piece I did last summer-- I'm proud of this one. #digitalart

Phew. Last sprint (hopefully) to get this four-season forest set finished!

Does anyone else falter on projects at the 98% finished mark?

I may have overdone it, with the vases.

For the first pixel art asset of 2025, I decided the only appropriate subject was the almighty shitpost. :D

(And happy new year, BlueSky!)

This one was tricky! I see why so many artists only use conifers in their winter scenes; the lack of foliage changes the pathing dramatically.

Three seasons down, one more to go!

The LPC winter forest's coming together! Still lots to polish, but the atmosphere is starting to click! Thoughts? Suggestions? #PixelArt #GameDesign #WIP

A digital painting of four female rats nestled together in a cozy, warm-toned setting. Three are black with white markings, labeled "A," "M," and "E", and one is white with pink eyes, labeled "W."

The worst thing about pet rats is how little time we have with them. I spent a couple hours this morning painting this.

Here’s to Emerdine. Endlessly affectionate and dearly missed. ... Stupid rats.

I'm not entirely sure how I pulled it off either, to be honest! :D But-- taking the scene in Godot with sketch-blobs and drawing everything together was a lifesaver. So many times I would have screwed up the cohesion otherwise.

A top-down pixel art scene of a lush forest in summer. The scene features a variety of trees, bushes, rocks, and mushrooms, and a strange, arcane portal in the center.

A pixel art desert campsite, featuring cacti, a campfire, tents, and scattered rocks. A confrontation seems to be happening between the men in the camp, and a stranger in black.
