some thing

Me and my tendons have a troubled relationship. There’s always one somewhere in my body that’s freaking out. This one is for anyone who relates to the feeling of being overly aware of those burning sensations your body can present you with ❤️‍🩹

All finished! @fieldsofmistria.bsky.social 🥰 #crossstitch #handmade #craftsky #xstitch

Did you know I made a pack of 175 pixel fonts that can be used for commercial/free games, websites, videos, stream overlays, and more? You can buy the entire pack or buy the font families individually! I also made a trailer for it: youtu.be/45Ylt2FLJxI?... All available on itch: chevyray.itch.io

Keep out 🚫 #pixelart

I published my Animal Shopkeeper picrew! Check it out here: picrew.me/en/image_mak... #art

hey pixel artists, I just released my first Aseprite theme! It's a pretty neutral one that started out as something I made for myself, but I also can't live without it at this point so I figured I'd share! I hope you like it, too 🎨 shanianickel.itch.io/alinas-asepr... #pixelart #aseprite

the first warm day of spring 🌱

why yes i AM a madman, thank you! the whole body is done up basically like this, but it's way easier to show on the lips since they're corralled off from a lot of the more complicated shading in addition: the eye creases, the nostrils, the highlight on the nose and lip, and freckles are all decals

One of my proudest achievements was being commissioned to do this #pixelart game mockup for the Aseprite trailer. The tilemap editor this work was used to highlight has been a gamechanger for my own #indiegame project. Thank you @aseprite.org! 😘

I’m so excited to introduce a new game: Seasonala Cemetery – explore the serene beauty of an urban cemetery and see how it changes in real-time with the time of day and seasons. A completely free game coming soon to Windows/Mac Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/3272690/Seasonala_Cemetery/
