Board Game Card Designs - the banana card is worth 8 points in this game. The bigger image shows the worm token that needs to fill all 4 slots surrounding a card before a card is cleared and its points claimed, as well as other filler tokens that hampers this point-gaining process.

Board Game Card Designs - back of card is a blue fridge with decoration, and this particular example of front of card is an old and spotty banana that's worth 8 points in this game.

I made a font for an anthropomorphic bee people. It's kind of hieroglyphic like Oracle Bones Chinese + Mayan + Egyptian, with symbols deriving from things that would matter to a bee, such as sun location, plant part, stylized bee shape, and weather shorthand. #visdev #conceptart #fantasyfont

Happy Lunar New Year y'all :D

Instead of the usual red stuff, I offer some blue and white Ming vase style zodiac animal paintings I did - year of the snake paired with the year of the chicken!

Fungal faun for fun. Scribbled with my sputtering pen in sketchbook. Trying to reject plastic is TOUGH!
