Niikura floating in water.

While this was a fun art to make, I don't know if the water effect is correct...

Nagumo. Kind of a "paint by numbers" thing, but I'm still very proud of how this turned out. So proud, it's my new wallpaper on my phone.

This sketch of a classroom background for a VN I'm working on took me 2hrs of fighting perspective and I still have to do lines and colours....
I have a new respect and admiration for solo Indie games devs

I be working on a VN, here be a little promo art for it.
It's my first time doing a project like this and the only other thing close to was a webcomic I did for many years.
I hope to have a basic playtest/demo of the first Chapter ready by the end of this month for feedback

Doing the code for a "secret project" where i'm internally calling S2R.
Is relatively easy as long I remember the order I have to do things in
