Learning how to draw heads, currently at head #287. I can see the practice is starting to pay off.

I'm happy! Cheers to the first ever page of my (first ever) longer format comic! I'll be sharing everything here as I progress (as long as it's welcomed ofcourse). Any feedback/critique is more than welcome.

I started drawing a slightly longer format comic, this is the first panel. I use watercolor and ink, scan them separately and combine them to make pages eventually.

"Job opening: Headhunter / Recruiter".
I need to practice drawing heads, so I came up with an idea for a comic to draw as many heads as possible: "Job opening: Headhunter / Recruiter". I guess he didn't read the second part... Any feedback / critique is more than welcome.

I drew another 2-page horror comic. I needed to practice drawing hands. Any feedback / critique is more than welcome. (OC)

I have been drawing Horror Comics to improve my pen-skills. Is this a place to share these?
If you have any feedback I am 100% open to all critique.

Quick #sketch / #art made with #Sakura Micron 0.5, 0.1 and 0.005.
I'll soon be picking up game dev again for a Physics Teaching game called "Book of Physics" in the latest version of #Godot, I'll be paperdrawing the assets again, simply because I like that the most. #drawing #ink

I'm experimenting with a new minimalist technological art style for a game. What do you think?
A lot of things have changed in my life recently, I'll probably post a little more in the near future again as well as on those changes but for now stay happy and healthy <3 #gamedev #godot #indiedev

I got awesome reactions on Bodhi. A player mentioned they lost 3kg of bodyweight just using the journalling part.
Also got feedback: re-decoration was too sensitive. I included a check for "screen drag" to make it easier to redecorate for those without steady fingers.

👋 Hey there awesome person!
The first release of my game Bodhi is out!
The goal of the game is to build a cozy bathhouse for spirits by tracking the food you eat.
You can download it using this link (it's 100% free) play.google.com/store/apps/d...

Revised version of the Shiko Workout you can do in Bodhi, with some camera shake.
Rikishi, or Sumo Wrestlers, are known to do Shiko over 300 (!) reps per day to strengthen their legs.
It's an interesting balance exercise and a fun one to do!

Can you imagine all the years of hard work put into training the GPT models and somebody just scrapes it and uses it for it's own gain without your permission?
Terrible news indeed.
P.S. fellow Gamedevs; be careful when sharing/generating code on R1.

I love how HP forces me to use their "HP Smart" environment to make use of my 15 year old printer but still wants me to add that same printer "as new" every time I scan my drawings for game art assets.

I'm going to pick up teaching Physics soon.
Anyone know of a game that uses Physics Experiments or is built for simulating experiments in the classroom?
If not; I'll build one myself!
Video is of Dichroic Cubes for a demo.
Reposting is appreciated <3
