✨ Happy Pokémon Day ✨ QRP with your Pokémon art #PokemonDay #PokemonArt

fun fact: if you draw fanart for a game within the first week of any sort of major PR event for it (announcement, demo, release etc) there is a 99% chance the entire dev team on the game knows who you are because they are doing nothing but reposting fanart in slack

I've been looking for a subject matter to do this for so long, but now @ansitru.bsky.social inspired me to finally make something to show my support. [ #transrights #pixelart #flowers #blahaj #shark #support #ally ] Flower meanings in reply!

Shoutout to all #pixelart friends! I have had requests for a couple of jobs that I cannot take on, and have been asked to point them in the direction to anyone available. If you are looking for work, reply with some examples of your work and a link to a portfolio and I will point them to this 🧵

If you see this post a room! 🥪

They justified this Tennessee drag ban using a legal designation: "harmful to minors" They justified book ban / library purges with "harmful to minors" Now they're using "harmful to minors" to push age-verification bills to censor the internet. Understand the connection. Fight them all.

Okay I might make some small tweaks but I'm pretty happy with how this character looks now! #pixelart #1bit

Oh, you're telling me you've upgraded yourself? You're telling me you're re-navigating the world around you with newfound understanding? Sounds familiar, idk, idk 💅

Huge news: IT'S FRIDAY BABEYYYY

If you are a cis person *please* take 2 minutes to do this. Trans people with non-updated gender markers, historical gender marker changes, and X markers are terrified to travel right now; rolling back this policy would mean a lot.

you're surprised people are annoyed with extremely resource-intensive bullshit machines with a high error rate being pushed by a collection of unethical, hype-inclined technofascists who just kissed the ring of authoritarianism and primarily see AI as a way to lazily cut corners and undermine labor?

If you are a citizen of the EU please strongly consider signing this petition, and share it. It's time to be an ally. If you are not in the EU please share it around. If you for whatever reason think LGBTQIA+ people do not deserve human rights, dignity and kindness, please fuck off and unfollow me.

Can't show the full, finished piece yet because she's also going to be a gift, but here's a tiny little Bellara WIP from last month!

Couldn't help but do a little test animation, nothing fancy. #BlenderWeeklies #Blender3D

Protest at Stonewall tomorrow. You can’t spell Stonewall without the T.

Some people think game dev an indulgent hobby, but I've never worked so hard, risked so much, overcame so many challenges, or faced so many fears in my life. The level of expectation and lack of resources to live up to them is insane. Please support indie devs. We need it. patreon.com/cheekynauts

Been sketching some mech's daily :)

Something you can do to stand against RFK jr’s attempt to make us all sicker is wear a mask when you share air with others. Resist mask bans. People who cannot afford to get sick have a right to exist in public. Masking will protect your health from him too.

Added a poise system. Combat is getting pretty challenging!

It’s the year of the dragon! Quote repost your dragon art 🐲 (This one’s a WIP but I’m liking it)

Another 32x32 character. Red, from Supergiant Games' masterpiece Transistor! Again quite a challenge to figure out which details to cut for readability, without losing key elements. Fitting both her and the Transistor itself into the 32x32 frame was probably the hardest part! #pixelart #transistor

Anybody positing that the problem with the games industry is that devs are too expensive is gonna get an instant block. For the cost of one EA CEO you could afford 213 devs making $120k apiece. Read the room, my dudes; a LOT of very skilled people are out of work right now. Profits are trickling up
