throwback to the time pokemon "leakers" were trying to pass off beta Omega Monsters models as Scarlet/Violet leaks. 😆😆

I don't draw monsters very often, maybe I should change that idk. but I'm proud of this little doodle.

here's a sketch of one of the entities from the "minced pie martian" encounter.

"The Chosen One" a TMNT x Evil Dead bootleg I sculpted a few years ago.

If anyone wants the .STL files I probably have them floating around on an external somewhere in my office.

yeah, not with *that* attitude.

it's always morally ok to make a video game where the player relentlessly kills Nazis.

a now scrapped omega monster, designed by a friend and sprited by another friend. (this was before Kyle joined on as the monster designer.)

might use this creature down the road for some other project, who knows.

here's some #kinkeshi style bootleg toys I did last year.

a predator, two doom Marines (one standard, and a variant with battle damage), and three slimers.

I'll release these for download/print over my #cults3D at some point.

Ken Sugimori is obviously a huge inspiration for @omegamonsters.bsky.social , but more specifically the project has been mainly inspired by "Capsule Monsters", the original concept that later led to the creation of "Pocket Monsters"

I've always really appreciated these concepts, and wondered..

lately I've been playing "card capture" on lunch breaks using playing cards from @montamerkc.bsky.social

the mechanics of the game blend nicely with the monster art on the cards, it feels like an accomplishment taking out enemy face cards (top row)

some likely cut @omegamonsters.bsky.social characters, shrinking down the game's scope for the #gameboycolor game.

maybe down the road we can do a sequel in a bigger engine, and these characters can be used then.

here's some old footage of Omega Monsters, back when we were working on a N64-inspired game.

I digitally sculpted everything to create prerendered sprites. the scope of the project was too big at the time, so we switched gears and began working on a Gameboy Color game instead.
