Hi hi #PortfolioDay! 🎨✨

I'm Requinoesis, someone who loves the ocean! I'm dedicated to creating a new insight into the imagery of sharks under pastel colors! 🌊🦈✨

You can see more of my art stuff here, if you want: linktr.ee/requinoesis
Roberto, the great hammerhead shark, explores the ruins of an ancient museum destroyed by Typhon's storm. He holds a flashlight and carries a mysterious human spirit in his backpack, who accompanies him in silence. The place, shrouded by the phenomenon called “cursed salt mist”, is covered in a permanent fog. Salt crystals sprout everywhere and a supernatural presence seem to lurk among the rubble. The spirit that accompanies Roberto is liquid and translucent. Sometimes little tropical fish of extinct species float around him, as if attracted by his presence. The museum's architecture is full of organic curves and ornate tiles. Decorated columns show a crab with a human face holding the moon between its pincers, an ancient symbol of a historical figure revered by the sharkfolk. A cozy little shark bistro nestled among lots of plants. A little harbor village of Gourdlets among a cozy grove of trees, carrying out various cooperative activities related to fishing and recreation, there are little colorful fish and a shark swimming peacefully in the sea. An allegory of the "Jaws" movie poster that caused damage and negative stereotypes to the image of sharks that persist to this day (I'm glad it's slowly changing, but it's still too slow to be considered forgivable). Now with a reversal of roles, with the human victim replaced by a simple wild shark and the terrible stereotyped shark replaced by a monstrous human skull seeming to want to devour the shark (this is the reality, we kill thousands of sharks every year, many of them killed for irrational reasons, who is the real cruel killer?)

Happy #PortfolioDay!
I place and sometimes animate pixels. I really like top-down environments, tilesets and limited palettes.
A top-down view of a cathedral-like structure, with many columns. At the very center, a giant baldachin, firmly standing on twisted columns. The altarpiece is mounted in a rich baroque frame, surmounted by stained glass rose window. A tall, bat-headed vampire is guarding the altar, with bats flying around. A richly adorned pipe organ can be seen to the eastern gallery. Along the transept in front of the absis, two enclosed naves host a Pietà statue and a reliquiary. Many huge chandeliers hang above the central nave, and lots of candles are scattered around the cathedral. A few zombies and skeletons are marching towards the entrance, where a group of adventurers is preparing for battle, being surrounded. To the side of the absis altar, downward staircases lead to the crypt. A huge skeletal dragon guards a closed gate. Many huge chandeliers hang above the central nave, and lots of candles are scattered around the cathedral. Below the Cahedral, an underground Ossuary crypt, with walls made out of bones and skulls. An eerie light permeates the various locales, featuring grates, numerous walls of wax, monumental coffins and pillars. A Lich warlock is channeling dark magic by a sarcophagus. The Tower above houses a giant bell. A faraway city can be seen from the terrace, as a Griffin guards the bell beam. A secret room with four chandeliers features many tombs. There, a lady-like demon with bat wings floats above a marble coffin. A topdown pixel art remake of Ruin Valley, from Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen. Many ancient structures can be seen emerging from the steep cliffsides and lush tropical vegetation: temples, tall palaces and mysterious pathways and towers. A moltitude of pokemon and trainers can be seen around. To the east, the ocean with tall waves and a jagged coastline. Water and fossil pokemon live there. At the center of the valley, the legendary pokemon trainer Red is entering the Dotted Hole ruins. Peculiar rock formation resembling regi pokemon are scattered throughout the environment. A top down, aerial view of a city and its outskirts by a swampy river. The streets are filled with people, and the architecture has a distinctive early twentieth century aesthetic, with rich bent iron structures. A collection of tiny pixel art pokemon scenes, featuring: 1. Chinchou swimming under the waves 2. Lanturn jumping above the waves at night 3. Corsola on the seafloor 4. Horsea in a cave underwater 5. Seadra in a kelp forest 6. Kingdra among whirlpools 7. Swinub at home, sleeping on a carpet 8. Piloswin taking a bath in hot springs 9. Mamoswine traversing a snowstorm 10. Cleffa hovering in space 11. Three Clefairy dancing at Mt. Moon Crater 12. Clefable in the middle of a pond, looking at the stars 13. Porygon in a strange labyrinth 14. Porygon2 running on a mobius strip 15. Porygon-Z floating in an old screensaver 16. Bonsly sitting on the porch as the rain starts to fall 17. Sudowood taking shelter from heavy rain in a mountain cave 18. Mew looking at the viewer through fish-eye lens 19. Sunkern floating in a summer meadow 20. Sunflora basking in the sunlight over a sunflower field 21. Celebi flying through Ilex Forest

#pixelflotilla
As Italy goes on strike, we all stand with Sumud, with humanity, against the g3nocide and corrupt politicians. Together we sail. I know for sure that some heroes definitely like One Piece.

If you want to join the flotilla as a collab, more details in the first comment.
A top down pixel art of the Going Merry Ship from One Piece, sailing calmly through the waves. The Strawhat jolly roger waves gently at the very top of the mainmast. A Palestine flag waves atop the rear mast, where a red, white and green sail is also found right below. Many green, red, white and black triangular flags are tied to the ropes all around. The crew can be spotted all around: Sanji is looking at a watermelon crate, possibly thinking of new recipes. Tony Tony Chopper is strolling happily down the staircase in the deck. Zoro is taking a nap at the bottom of the main mast. Nico Robin is relaxed, leaning on the main central deck railing and watching the waves, with a book by her side. Nami is looking towards the horizon from the bow deck where Usopp can be found as well, busy with ship's reparations. Luffy is sitting atop the sheep figurehead, with his arms stretched, hugging the giant watermelon he is enthusiastically eating.

So, a recap, if anyone cares. The world is an unending nightmare, far beyond our worst predictions. Orwell was pretty much milder than whatever we've got going on: apartheid, crazed b1gots and f4sc1$ts going rampant. Ethnocrazed empires blowing up kids and buying politicians and media like candy.

#pixelart Zelda edition
A pixel reimagining of the boss battle with Aquamentus, from the first The Legend of Zelda. The room is flooded, and a few ray of light filter from the ceiling, making the swamped floor shine. Many giant roots cover the wall, and lilypads and lotus flowers are scattered across the water surface. Link, carrying all his items, faces the unicorn-dragon Aquamentus as the water ripples below them. A pixel art reimagining of Southern Face Shrine boss room, seen from above. The arena is surrounded by brick, curved walls; the structure is encircled by by stained glass windows atop each side. The central window showcases the Wind Fish Effigy. As the glass and candles create an iridescent atmosphere in the arena, Link is ready to face the colossal Armos Knight, as they both wield a sword and a shield. Behind the mighty foe, a stone face carved into the wall can be seen: its mouth opens into a dark corridor, leading to the innermost sanctum and its dark secrets. A collection of boss sprites from the original The Legend Of Zelda, with a custom gbc-inspired palette. At the center, a big Ganondorf sprite, and all around, from top center and clockwise: Aquamentus, Dodongo, Manhandla, Gleeok, Digdogger, Gohma and Patra. A top-down pixel art reimagining of Animal Village, from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX. A rural village, surrounded by rocky cliffs and tall trees, with its windmills and a telephone pole, is populated by animals. In the middle of a grassy meadow, Link and Marin are dueting the Ballad of the wind fish, as three rabbits, a toucan and a blue bear are listening. Schule Donavitsch, the painting alligator is making a portrait of the Hippo model, as Grandma Yahoo is sweeping the alley. The Bear Chef is just outside her house, looking at the animals, Marin and Link.

Mega Dragonite on Gameboy Color. Dragon and Flying type inspired background art.
#pixelart #pokemon #dragonite
A pixel art scene of Mega Dragonite, a winged dragon pokemon, seen flying. On its head, just beside a single horn, two big feathered wings are slightly coiled inwards. The round crystal on the tip of its tail is full of draconic energy. It is shown in a dark cave environment, possibly the Dragon's Den. Stalactites and Stalagmites shapes emerge from the dark.

After relocating in Osaka, we are slowly settling in.
Thankfully the boxes are gone!
Here's a fun #turnbased game #mockup a-la Advance Wars.
I'm having a blast making the art within the #gameboy color's limitations.

(New characters, monsters, bosses and animations/effects, coming soon on itch and patreon)
A pixel art scene shwocasing the middle of an active volcanic crater filled with hot magma. A 4-armed skeleton Demon boss is emerging from the lava lake, juggling flying flames with its skeletal hands, reading a deadly attack.
