Did you know in 2012 I wrote and illustrated a book? It's a 100% factual book about prehistoric vegetables, full of very accurate illustrations of these marvellous beasts. All of the book's profits go towards Lung Cancer research.

Get your copy here: bit.ly/1JuQqgG

An illustration depicting a Carrotosaurus, enjoying some time by a flowing river in a clearing of the forest.

The front cover of the book "Cucumbertops and Other Animals of The Veggiesaur Kingdom", a Cucumbertops stands proudly on the cover, on a grassy hilltop.

An illustration of some flying creatures - a flock of Yamphorhynchus are bothered as a huge Peanutcoatlus soars overhead above the canopy of the forest.

An illustration depicting a Leeklodocus being hunted by two carnivorous Sallotrodemus, along the riverbank.

Hey artists! With the holidays around the corner I'd love to get some spotlight on creators shops instead of supporting big businesses.

So if you've got a kofi, a shop, or comms open please share them here! 🛒

Would love to have a lil thread for folks to go browsing and support artists! 🎨💵

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.

Credits for Brent Porter (3D art lead) and Catherine Menabde (2D art lead) are shown here. There's a lengthy description of what they did, with a pastiche of various Demonschool characters underneath, messing around with a computer.

Estoy practicando con el pixel art para hacer un sprite para las batallas de mi juego. Siento que me sale más fácil de animar para el RPG Maker que un dibujo normal. Veré si muestro la versión animada cuando lo termine 👌

I'm building a sky shader for my ArtBuddy (codename) app I'm making. Realtime volumetric clouds all art directed. Lots of settings to change and make any mood imaginable. The video recording is a bit laggy because app takes good part of GPU.

Late, but I wanted to jump in on this trend. While I love Fieren, I am deeply inspired by how brave this person was! They went for the hard thing, were curious, made us all rejoice and draw together!

It makes me so happy to see folks gain that artistic curiosity!

So go forth! Rooting for you! 💖
