I like to draw, I like to make games. I don't do either often enough.
I also like fantasy, horror, metal music, and animation.

It's my birthday today, and because I am turning 31, am actively balding, and will probably die alone, I want to celebrate it by sharing some of my favorite pieces from this year. 🥳🥳🥳
If you want you can join the celebration by sharing these pieces, that would be very much appreciated. 🖤

Tried a different coloring method inspired by Peter Mohrbacher's process videos. It was a very different way to work with color, starting off in grayscale, adding gradient maps, and then color touch ups at the end. I would up with a lot of layers, but got pretty good results.

Did a quick sketch of my twilight domain cleric giving off some paladin vibes during the last DnD session, realizing I really need to do some armor studies lol

I've been making a lot of art assets for #necrobrawlicon, but you never know if it works until it's all together in-engine... And I think it's looking pretty good!
Still a lot more to go, but off to a good start 😁

Another example of the ‘Panel’ style of body modification, created by artist @briarghast.bsky.social
This one features interlocking knot designs, which evoke a culture that values interconnection between people and the strength of its community.

BRAINSTORM, card 4 of the 5 I currently have planned for NecroBrawlIcon (planning to add a lot more later, but got other things to work on first). I want to have at least some cards be upgradable throughout the game, so this one has 3 versions.

Some more possible card art for NecroBrawlIcon. I only have four cards implemented in engine yet, so at this point I’m drawing whatever I think will look cool and hoping I’ll come up with a good idea for a card to put it on.

You can't have a deck builder game without card art. Gonna start phasing out the placeholder graphics, bit by bit
Wanted a generic attack, a healing card, and "chain attack," but kind of struggling with the last one... Might repurpose the art later.
