I wanted to share some of the tools I use from sketch to inks to color (since it's a lot like how I approach artwork for Slasher U!) I'm working on some character artwork for a client's video game, and above, you can see each step of the character design process so you can follow along!
PROGRAM: Clip Studio Paint
Working out how I want Mike's body type to look in the minigame! So I try to have each dateable with variation in their body types, and Mike's the kind of guy who has a basketball player/swimmer body - not a lot in the abs department, but a GREAT way for me to look at some pecs, massive fuckin' biceps and forearms with a kind...

One of my friends is a singer who does lovely covers of tunes such as Ladyworld and Snake Eater - her onstage persona is Panadoll, a K-Pop meets cyberpunk magical girl of the future! This year, she's planning a new outfit for each night of her stage perfomance - so we all got together to design her some possible looks! This "...

Holy SHIT what a two-weeks that was! Our beautiful Robot Moon's mechanical temple had:

It's been a while since I did some studies on just how sexy I can make each dateable, right? (Plus Bonus Tate!!)
I REALLY wanna make more Fiendish Laila expressions and art in the future, and also I just love drawing Hex's butt. I mean. Who doesn't??
2025-04-09 13:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostSome of you may know that I ALSO work on a game for my friend Tris over at Back That Elf Up! It's an anticapitalist corporate satire about vampires working at a startup (so right up my alley, haha).

Here's a peek at the inside of Veronika's (I'm wondering if you can figure out who the other rooms belong to just by vibes alone in this video?? haha)

So. I absolutely FUCKING LOVE the design I landed on for Jason. A big thing I wanted to do with Hex's dads is humanize them, in a way that I feel like Mr. McGillicutty can't really be. They might not be making good decisions, but it's possible to understand WHY. Jason here was supposed to be a visual representation of the sca...

2024-12-19 20:23:32 +0000 UTC View PostSomething I wanted to finish before the Act 2 alpha was a bespoke Mr. McGillicutty fight that would be both conversation and battle-based - with extra moves based on who you've recruited to help Tate on his journey (if anyone). Each extra NPC randomizes between one of two movesets (one that heals Tate and one that damages Tat...

One of the saddest things I have to do as a dev is scrap characters (and hopefully bring them out later on, if possible).
