Happy #WIPWednesday! Today I wanted to show a small bit from one of the backgrounds @applesplosion.bsky.social is working on for the full game~

This beautiful lass is very comfortable just resting at home, do you happen to know who her owner is?

There is nothing more satisfying than writing a spicy scene and seeing the dynamic between two characters just… come together. No pun intended.

I don’t like the way anti-AI filters make my art look. How do other artists deal with this problem?

I’m very excited to present at #VNConf! For my demonstrations on drawing your own backgrounds, I will… draw a background! Then I will make it available to everyone as a free asset.

If you want to make a suggestion on what that background will be, you can do so here: forms.gle/nqd2pm8LGZJC...

Hey #vndev, #visualnovel and #Renpy developers: if I start digitizing my watercolor paintings (examples below) into certifiably AI-free BG asset packs as a free/pay-what-you-want resource, would that be useful to you? What would make it more useful?
