Nobody ever looks at this account anyway so vent time.
Really sucks that Im supposed to be moving next weekend and our security deposit isn't even paid yet. Its just been me supporting my partner and myself on a single part time income and I'm afraid to ask for help since it didn't go well before.

Gapple fact! You show an immeasurable amount of skill with your low tier!
Introducing the soon to be produced "Gapple Matchups" design! Honestly I saw a guy with Snapple shirt while watching EVO and this idea wouldn't leave me alone. Keep an eye out for the drop! I'm excited!

Dug a little old school for this one! Very inspired by NEO GEO arcade cabs, the Fatal Fury opening screen and just the general classic arcade vibe! Always a joy to make some Terry stuff so thanks again!

Was in the business of helping a fellow artist last week with some general composition and just adding "flair" to a general piece and I recorded a small little time-lapse about it. Naturally I didn't want this to just sit in my files so I'm sharing it! Check it out!

Alright so.
After WAY too long, a proper and decently put together comms sheet is FINALLY real! Prices are baseline what you see on the sheet but are always negotiable. If you've ever been unsure of what prices are, now there's a resource! Thanks for the support gamers!

Frustrating to still have to go to work when literally all I want to do is be at home and work on my commission and design work. I'm so ready to be able to do this full time I swear. Feels like I'm being suppressed creatively lol.

This was such a blast to work on and it was honestly kind of a journey to get to this final vision! Went through 3 different variants before settling and it was a fun challenge all the way through! So proud of how it came out!

Cat Scraps Vol. 2:
Proposed playercard alternative for VICE FGC based on the banner I created for them that wasn't chosen but I still think is cool. Thanks for looking!
P.S. $20 comm slots open so I can buy myself lunch at work today.

Did a fun self exercise where I tried to name as many Axl players as possible and came up with 21 off the top of the dome. Coincidentally that's probably the total number of Axl players in the world smile. We all know each other and it's great.

Presenting "Cat Scraps" which is a showcase of un-used and scrapped concepts and ideas that either my clients didn't go for, or just never ended up getting used! All of these have been sitting in my files collecting dust for ages so I wanted to give them a new home!
