Hello new friends and followers!

I'm JP, a.k.a. Dualmask. I've got comics, pinups, prose novels and a game in my creative history. Not sure what my creative future holds. Meanwhile, I draw gals and commissions.

I'm also kind of a veteran gamer, big on indies, AAA less so.

The original look. Probably a better drawing, but not quite what I wanted design-wise.

I actually did another update to this one. I ended up hating the bulky gauntlets and boots I gave her so I slimmed them down.

Working on updating the looks of the warrior women I sketched previously. I'm trying to get back to drawing the same character more than once. Just a WIP for now.

Yeah, as I was working on it, I was so bored with the thong approach. A female character doesn’t need to show every possible ounce of skin to be sexy.

I was in the middle of building a DragonBones rig for one of my warrior women character designs when I suddenly lost interest in it. Got kind of bored with the character, figured I would redesign her to be a bit more interesting.

The current approach to the character. Going for more of a sci-fi vibe.

Thanks!

Jonathan Price Art @dualmask.bsky.social · 9d

This looks incredible.

This was my original idea for the sprite but the client wanted both arms swaying.

My current #WIP. I'm practicing my sprite making techniques by turning the warrior women in my past sketches into assets. I don't have a game in mind, but I like doing this sort of thing. Gonna build it in parts and animate it in DragonBones, maybe.

Hey all. Been a while, been busy...

Here's an old sprite animation, one of the bosses from my Jet Dancer game (available on Steam).

I'm presently working on some new sprite characters as practice while I'm between projects and commissions.

My OC Alexia (codename: Phantom) from a defunct concept. The lights on her suit are projectors that allow her to produce 3D holograms that can mimic her movements and act like energy blasts when they collide with a target.

Completed sprite commission for a DeviantART client.

Commissions are open!

Glad you like! I felt she was my best work so far.

My gal Christiana in action. Not as involved as the other prototype video, but I cared about it just as much. Unfortunately, this too suffered from my inability to fill all the creative gaps in my concepts.

This was probably my favorite of the sprites I've made to date.

I'll keep digging these up from the archives while supplies last...

Here's another one of my sprite animations. Someone I admired suggested long ago that this was more or less my 'niche'. I wonder.

Glad you like it! Unfortunately, the mechanics were pretty much the only thing I got down with this project... the actual specifics of the setting, story, gameplay, etc., never came together.

Jonathan Price Art @dualmask.bsky.social · 22d

I have quite a few of these. This one is older, but never posted before.

Thanks! I'm hoping it's the start of more good things to come.

Jonathan Price Art @dualmask.bsky.social · 22d

Why so conservative? We could easily do 200%...

Thank you!

I posted this on my deviantART the other day on a whim, and someone ended up hiring me to make a custom character sprite animation. Quite cool.

Trying something out with one of my sprites. Wasn't sure if animated GIFs could be posted here.
