Every drawing/pairing reaches a point where you suddenly hate hit. That is the point where if you push through it will suddenly come together. Then Iโ€™m the other side is something you will like. Itโ€™s a strange phenomenon Iโ€™ve had to endure far to many times in my art life.

Throw some shadows under the finger that crosses the bottom hand and under the A gap over the nose/upper lip area. You are at that strange push through moment where itโ€™s better in the other side. But itโ€™s good!

I am very bad at remembering screen shot Saturday. But I spent some time fixing some lighting. So how about a before and after? #Pixelart #RPGMaker #Indiedev

It fought me nearly every step of the way (and #Rpgmaker 2003 is not great after over 150 hours in MV). But got something to launch on my Miyoo Mini! #indiedev #pixelart #victory

We Stole a Ship to Run a Scam by Bitterly Indifferent Studios One good haul of sea eggs could set you up for life!

Cover art on @itch.io always makes me nervous. I never know if I am doing something that will jump out at a potential player. I've felt that way for some time about We Stole a Ship to Run a Scam. So, I updated it to see the "we". #indiedev #pixelart #rpgmaker

We have been working on a game for a bit now. We started in RPG Maker 2003. We decided to move to MV. I then found out I could make the sprites bigger. So the characters that started as 24x32 had to be reworked as 48x48 and Iโ€™m now redoing them in 96x96. #pixelart
