Book tutorial WIP!

Here's a sneak peak at the next tutorial I'm working on!

I'm also experimenting a bit when it comes to the format for the full version of the tutorial, you guys should find it a bit easier to follow along with :3

The silly image ref board grows...

Been doing a lot of drawings based on silly images I find on social media these days, and I just thought I'd show you guys what my collection looks like so far lol.

It'll take me like a year to get to all of these, but it should be fun at least :D Also if you have any images like this that you know of feel free to send them to me, cause I'm always looking for more >:3

Tier Reward Changes

Hey everyone, like I said I would a few weeks ago, I've made some quick changes to some of the tier rewards. Here's what those look like :

  • Made access to project files (.clip and .ase) a Pixel Wizard and above reward, instead of being exclusive to the Pixel Archmage/Oracle tiers!

  • Removed pixel art color palettes from Pixel Archmage rewards (now exclusive to Pixel Oracle)

  • Access to behind the scenes/WIP posts is now part of the Pixel Apprentice tier as well!

  • Those in the Pixel Archmage tiers and above get exclusive, more detailed versions of my regular tutorials (at least one a month)

Hope you guys won't mind the changes too much. Btw I've been very busy with personal/professional projects lately so I haven't found as much time as I would've liked to work on more tutorials, but just know that I'm still hard at work on them!

Upcoming Tier Reward Changes

Hey everyone, hope you're having a nice week!

I'm just letting you know ahead of time that I'll be changing up some of the tier rewards a bit starting next month. It shouldn't be anything major and the prices won't be changing but I just thought I'd give y'all a heads up since I'll potentially be moving things around :3

This won't effect any of this month's rewards, just those for the month of September and going forward, and the main thing I'll be doing is adding the new, more detailed tutorials to the reward list for those in the Pixel Archmage/Oracle tiers! (I'll try to do one every month at least)

Anyways I hope you'll all have a great rest of the month, see you around ^^

Pixel Art Crystal Tutorial (Full Version!)

Here's a more detailed version of the crystal tutorial I made previously, where I explain a bit more of my thought process and techniques :D

I'm posting this first one publicly to see how people like it, and then from now on I'll keep making them exclusively for those in the Pixel Archmage and above!

Hope you'll find these helpful/interesting because they're a lot of work :3

Terraria Spell Book Resprites Timelapse

Here's a little timelapse/process GIF of my latest set of resprites :P

 If you want to get a more up close look, it'll be part of the .Ase file for the sprites included in this month's rewards! (Pixel Archmage and up).

Terraria Book Resprites WIP & Quick Update

Took a little break but I'm back to working on these spell tome resprites! I've decided to tackle all of them since there aren't that many, and here's a little look at the ones I've just finished :3

Also I've been pretty busy with freelance work over the past few weeks which is why I haven't been making many tutorials, but don't worry I'll be back to making those soon! In fact the next tutorial will be a crystal tutorial (I know I've already made a gemstone tutorial but this one should be a little different lol) :D

Btw since I'll be starting to make more complex tutorials as a Patreon tier reward (Pixel Archmage and up), I'm gonna be making some changes to the tier rewards soon, but I'll make a post on that when I get to it.

Have a nice weekend everyone :3

July 2024 Rewards Are Here!

The corresponding rewards for each tier have just been sent to you all via direct message, hope you enjoy!

Also for those in the Pixel Archmage tier or above, I've started including some short timelapses I recorded for some of my pixel art projects.

 Only two for now, but it's something I plan on doing more often in the future! I've exported them as GIFs, but you can also find the .Ase files for them which makes for easier analysis, hope you'll find it useful, or at the very least interesting :P

And just a reminder for my Pixel Oracle members to send in their artworks over on Discord within the month if you haven't already!

Have a great month everyone :3

More Detailed Tutorials?

Posted my most recent gold tutorial on Reddit the other day and someone asked if I offered more detailed versions of my tutorials on Patreon. I told them that I didn't, but I've been thinking about if and it really seems like a neat idea.

Basically I would be posting my regular "simplified" tutorials on my socials like usual, but then I could make alternative and more details/explanative versions of those tutorials and put them up on Patreon!

Long and detailed tutorials usually don't do very well on social media, but uploading them here would allow me to go way more in-depth with all sorts of explanations and insights into my process for choosing things like colors or designs :P

What do you guys think?

Terraria Bow Resprites Timelapse

Here's a little look at what the timelapses (or process GIFs to be more accurate) that are included in my .Aseprite files look like, as part of the rewards for the Pixel Wizard tier and above!

Part of my pixel art workflow consists of creating and drawing on new frames after making changes of a certain size/importance, which ends up creating these "timelapses" that you can study to get a better look at my drawing and design process!

So for those who are receiving my drawing files as part of their tier rewards, don't forget to take a look at the .Ase files :P

The first reward drop since I created this Patreon page has just been sent via direct message, I spent quite a bit of time organizing everything so I hope you all enjoy :D

Reminder for my Pixel Oracle members to send in their artworks over on Discord within the month!

Ear Tutorial

Tried to make this one more aesthetically pleasing and simpler when compared to my previous digital art tutorials. Obviously didn't preform as well as the pixel art ones but when I eventually make more tutorials like this, I'll be going with a similar presentation style for sure!

These are more on the technical side, and thus didn't work as well on socials back when I posted them. Definitely planning on making some more digital art tutorials like these in the future, but I'll have to find a way to make them more palatable I suppose ^^'
