Life in New Yoke is never easy, Sneak's friend being a resistance member and going out with Zeke's friend and father figure (a former member of the Chaos Council) makes him a bit uneasy.

Zeke on the other hand is just happy for them and supports the relationship!

Finished the video last night! It's rendering time!

20 minute video!

I want to at least make two video essays before I get to reviewing the next game, I want to stick to focusing on a per-franchise basis for my videos.

Roler42 @roler42.bsky.social · 1d

So... This next review I neglected so much to finish editing is 20 minutes long, I'm already halfway there!

I'm fully locked in right now, I won't go to bed until it's at least ready for rendering!

Roler42 @roler42.bsky.social · 1d

Alright, laundry done, I cooked a tasty meal for my parents, and now I'm ready, gonna grab clips for the gameplay channel and then into editing mode.

I wanted to make some spooky game videos for the season but I don't think I'll get to finish them in time so... How about I share spooky games I've made videos on before?

(I'll share the links later, I'm still doing laundry, just came to take a quick breather, lol)

Fellow YouTubers, name the four biggest inspirations for your channel:

Today is laundry day, then if all goes well, I'm locking myself in the editing bunker in the mid-afternoon.

My pixel art study continues, I had this old sketch of Zee for the longest time, so why not use it to experiment?

#myart #sonicoc #pixelart #sonicthehedgehog #fanart

More in the alt text!

So I made this on a traditional sketchbook about 2 years ago, you can tell because I have this thing where I accidentally draw heads bigger than they need to be, lol.

I was taking random poses as inspiration when I came across this one and thought Zee would look cute in it, I don't draw my OCs being happy too often so hey! Good vibes!

Most pixelart tutorials say to use a small canvas, but I can't help feeling I could get some fun results if I used the pixel brush on a more regular sized canvas, it's all a matter of experimenting, and I'd say this one turned out great!

I'll see if I can do more elaborate pixel shading as I keep experimenting!

I was thinking I should start experimenting with pixel art!

So what better way to get started than with my doggo!

#sonic #sonicoc #myart #digitalart #sonicthehedgehog

I was hesitant to give pixel art a go, cuz while SAI does have a binary pen that lets you make pixel art, there's also the problem of not having a binary eraser.

A quick google search fixed the problem almost inmediatley, lol, now I got my own custom pixel erase and... I'd say for a first pixel art drawing, it turned out pretty neat!

I'm still a ways to go, but this is a really good first start! I might make even more in the future!

This is a commission for @infinityquest.bsky.social !

He wanted me to take a shot at one of his creations and I was more than happy to give it a go!

More details in the alt text!

#myart #digitalart #commission #art

He's been developing his own little space adventure with a whole alien species, and I was asked to draw a female Gh'endeshi! (That's the name of the species)

From the lore I was given, their clothing reflect their social status, so I thought it'd look cool to give her a rather smug noblewoman pose, and a stare that just says you're beneath her, lol.

This was a ton of fun to draw! Thank you for commissioning me!

The Spark brainrot continues! This time it's the Knight Jester's turn!

There's not much points of reference for these power ups so I'm having to improvise, and I'm having a lot of fun while doing it!

More details in the alt text!

#myart #sparktheelectricjester #fanart #gaming #indie #digitalart

In one of the stages, Spark goes through an area that includes train tracks, meaning every now and then a train will speed by, potentially dealing damage to Spark and enemies alike if you don't get out of the way.

So I thought, why not make a more action-ish scene where Knight Jester Spark is on top of the train about to fight?

It's seriously sad how little fanart there is of this game trilogy, I ended up improvising what little detais I noticed on sprites and backgrounds from gameplay screenshots.

Tho it came with the fun side effect of letting me improvise and adapt it to my artstyle!

It's still crazy there are more power ups left, and you can bet I'm gonna make fanart of them! I want to contribute in giving Spark some much needed attention!

My Spark power up journey continues, this time it's the Magical Jester's turn!

More details in the alt text!

#myart #sparktheelectricjester #fanart #gaming #indie #digitalart

Considering how the name speaks for itself, I gave Spark a more magical girl kinda pose.

In th game you can get this power up during a space themed level so I thought, why not take the star bit to its fullest and have him in orbit, summoning a star shower?

The best part of making something in space means I got a chance to play around with the lights, space is dark so it only makes sense Spark would get to emit light from his staff!

I don't know what the formie planet looks like, so I improvised a blue earth-ish sith some landmass and clouds and... I'm happy with the results!

Best part in all of this is I'm not halfway through the power up list!

I think this is the first time I'm having true art brainrot for a game... It feels funny, and neat!
