A Gothic corridor, surely from a dark castle perched high in the forgotten mountains
( The ground of this wing of the castle has remained untrodden for too long, who knows what secrets might lie at the end ? )

Yes I agree !
I was also hesitant with red but I found that blue made the scene more peaceful (and that was the goal here)
Glad you like it AuGhost 🙏

It's time to show you some more recent work !
The tombs are from ToTB, the mausoleum is inspired by Diablo 2, and the overall vibe is very Heroes of Might and Magic
"Visit the Warrior's Tomb" (Artifact or -3 morale)

Hehe thank you ! The whole vibe is inspired by earthbound 😊

I wouldn't know which character to associate you with
But I really imagine you as someone creative, sensitive, and perhaps also unpredictable
( It's especially your sketch style, which I love, that makes me think that )

#PixelDailies from 2022 - theme : curve
It was a fun rotoscoping exercise, and I always enjoy working on looped animations, whether it's for walking cycles or idle animations

Before I started working on Toads of the Bayou, I experimented with #PixelDailies
Here's one example (2022 - Symbiotic)

It might seem cheesy to some, but when I was a teenager, I loved Fight Club back then, and I still consider it to be one of my favorite movie
