seems like it's #PortfolioDay again, so let me highlight some #pixelart commissions and contract work i've done since last time around!

Pixel art illustration for one of the panels of the intro sequence of upcoming game Huedini. The image shows three 12-sided gems, colored blue, green and red. From their center, three multicolored light beams extend outward in different directions. The gems are displayed in front of a starry space background. At the edges of the background, blue, green and red nebulas appear, each matching the color of the nearest gem.

Pixel art sprites for a collection of units for the upcoming game Eldritch Tactics: Apocalypse Rising. On the top half of the screen, 10 monstrous units are displayed representing the eldritch attackers. On the bottom half, 8 human units are displayed, representing the human resistance.

Pixel art illustration of mana tokens for the upcoming game Torment Hexus, representing the elements Engram, Body, Unison and Cyber. The tokens are displayed against a dark gray checkerboard grid.

Pixel art mock-up of a "run and gun" style shooter game, where two player characters - stylized green and red robot soldiers labeled P1 and P2 - battle against bug-like robot enemies in an industrial environment. At the center of the screen, the head of a large mechanical insect labeled "Mecha Mantis" can be seen, being pelted by the shots of P2's Blaster. Mecha Mantis's body looms threateningly far into the background. P1 wields a laser sword labeled "Saber", and is mid-swing about to strike one of the minor drones assaulting the party.

Probably not! I can’t commit to anything long term right now. 😵‍💫 but I do really like these characters so I don’t want to abandon them completely lol

Thank you! The theme was fun this year and really made us think. Tim came up with the initial idea, then we all just kinda built upon it and BOOM. I don’t think I could come up with something like this on my own lol

New AoE spell sprites. I think the Fire one needs something in the middle, and they all need particles.
Kinda want the Ice one to look more like it's growing rather than just moving. But these will do for now!
