Hey guys - long time no speak! I've updated the main post with some of my more recent artwork 💖

Just popping in to post some recent work!

...and here's a WIP:

Thank you! Nothing too exciting, but I finished up some templates for a generator I'm making (just for fun), and here's a look at another PICO-8 game I'm helping with:/ ->

[Insert obligatory 'SORRY FOR NOT POSTING I SUCK' message here] Here are some random bits I've worked on in the meantime ^^ Some .gifs of a side project I'm working on: Really haven't done a lot of drawing, but eh:

Ahhh, gotcha. I started the year by getting diagnosed with panic disorder, being pretty much back to normal by mid-February, then having it steadily get worse since March. Medication has either not really helped or put me in a lot of pain, so I'm just trying to take it one day at a time. 🙃 Anyways, here's quick drawing/painting from earlier today:

@Lord Vectra Thank you! @PhoenixSoul Oh no! Sorry to hear that! It's been a rough year for me, too. :( @Rikifive I lurk every now and then, but I'm so bad at actually posting things lmao. Thanks a bunch! @Kirimash Agreed - this year has been something else, eesh. And thank you!! I haven't been up to too much lately (besides work), but here's a walk sprite I've been working on:

Hope everyone's been doing well ^^ I updated the main post to show newer artwork, and here's a look at a request I finished up recently: 😁

I've been super super busy at my new job, but here are the rest of the XP cover faces:

I went ahead and reorganized the top post, and here are the finished XP cover sprites: 😀

Smaller chibi sprites (like VX/ACE or MV's) are great when characters don't have a lot of small details, because then you can really exaggerate the details that are there. The larger heads give a lot of room for expressions/variations in face style, although the head-to-body ratio makes them a bit of a pain for posing/animating. I generally like the chibi styles for RMMV and VX/ACE, although I'm not a fan of how the eyes look on MV's. They're a bit nightmarish. Mack sprites, though I'm not personally a fan of the style, are really nice when you have more detailed character designs. You have the space to draw out clothing/hairstyles without having to squeeze in or omit details, have slightly more realistic body proportions to make animating easier, and still maintain the larger head size to add expressions. It's a weird complaint, but the issue I have with Mack sprites is that they have the larger body size everywhere else, but don't have any sort of neck. I think they look fine when the characters have a scarf or hood, but the head-shoulder area on sprites without them looks super awkward to me. I don't really have a preference between the two styles when I'm playing a game, but from a spriting perspective, chibis are much easier to handle when you're making everything from scratch lol.

Hey guys! It's been like a year now (yeesh!), but I went back and updated the main post. Here's what's new: - I made MV versions of the RMVX cover characters: - I'm working on MV versions of the RMXP cover characters: - I made an RMMV version of my project's main character, Chance:

@PhoenixSoul Thanks ^^ Here's a commission I finished tonight:
