And a lot of waiting for animal crossing .. patreon rewards are slowly being made, thank you for your patience this month ;a;and if anyone is interested, i'm back open for commissions. this covid 19 thing has my entire country on quarantine lockdown for the next 4-6 weeks, so the government says. no going outside unless it's an emergency or to go to the supermarket. not like my lifestyle w...
Pixel + aseprite technical tips
Big post of pixel tips, not necessarily about drawing but on exporting and posting, using aseprite, etc. These are the things I get asked about the most. If there's a topic not covered here that'd you like to see, please DM me/comment and I'll add it to the postMost of this uses aseprite but a lot of it can be done in any art program (except ms paint) Changing canvas size(In aseprite) Sprite > Canvas size. Pretty straight forward. Jus...
Miku day process
I unfortunate closed the file before I thought 'hey I should record this' :/ so there's only 1/3 of the process I'm sorry. But at least I got a ton of screenshots~some stuff on lighting: the lighting comes from the top left. the circled areas have the most obvious lighting. this is more of a personal choice but i like to blend hair with the face, it has less obvious lines

update
The Hatchery: Round 4 Cycle 1
Eggs eggs eggs. The hatchery has been around almost a year now. Wild.Reminder of how this works: one egg per person, DM me to buy an egg. You have one week to buy an egg before it goes back on sale. When an egg is bought a new egg is added. After 1 month the egg will hatch. After 2 months the egg will be fully grown. Any eggs not sold at the end can be purchased by anyone.Questions master post /Previous designs master post update new eggs!
Owl process

Pins, baby!
So! I have made an order of 100 pins when I meant to only order one haha but it's ok, it works out to be cheaper for me this way. I'll be sent a sample of the pin first to work out any faults or flaws before the 100 are made. The sample should be delivered to me within 20 days to 1 month.Because my country is an absolute bitch with shipping costs, here's where I have a dilemma- finding a sales price that a) covers shipping b) covers m...

Fishing? Fishing
From 3am to 6am I wrote a game document about fishing-the concept is player is stuck on an island because I said so. On this island is the guardian deity, who needs to be fed fish to keep the island alive. Players can forage, fish and cook to feed the deity and keep the island alive. Feeding the guardian keeps it happy and will unlock cool rewards for better items for fishingPlaceholder character design. I was thinking of changing her hair to twi...
