🐚Squich joins Astral Arena!🐚 This one has a special place in my heart as its the spiritual successor to a fakemon i designed as a child ❀️ Which 2 animals is it a combination of? #gamedev #indiedev #monstertaming #creaturecollecting #gameart #creature #monster #art

when doing the blockout i messed about a lot with the design and ended up almost exactly where i started πŸ™ƒ but im happy to move forward BUT what do i call it? Sloth + Tarantula/Spider πŸ•·οΈπŸ¦₯ Spoth? Slothula? Tarantoth destroyer of worlds??? Your suggestion here??? #gamedev #blockout #concept #gameart

The next Astral is Sloth + Tarantula, but it doesn't have a name yetπŸ˜” Here's the concept sketch Any name ideas?? #monstertamer #creaturecollector #creature #monster

Our little cloud boi has been textured and i think im happy with it ☁️ cant wait to get the puff particles going and animate things! #gamedev #gameart #monstertamer #creaturecollector

OK cloud boi is coming along now, gonna use this as a test in game to see what details matter i plan on making the little puffs as a particle effect so that its more puffy and less solid, and so it can leave a lil trail in the air πŸ˜€β˜οΈ #gamedev #gameart #monstertamer #creaturecollector

Looks a bit like a puffer fish #gamedev #gameart #sculpt

The next Astral is an "Object mon"- just a lil' cloud ☁️ too spherical so far but im less uncertain about how to actually make it now Though i've also had some other ideas... #gamedev #gameart #sculpting
