Couple of sketchbook pages from last night. Sonic is so fun to draw.

Design for a true last boss for Fixeight Exa Label which did not make it in due to time constraints. #pixelart #ドット絵

Sketchbook pages from last night (I did not sleep) I guess some of these don't really qualify as sketches, given I worked on them quite long, esp the 3rd pic.

The kind of shit i doodle on loose paper while watching random youtube videos.

Two boss enemies I made for a shmup gig that did not go anywhere and I had no time for it anymore. Never posted these anywhere before. The brief was to make a bunch of mainly boss enemies in a somewhat less greebly DDP style. #pixelart #ドット絵

I quite like how this sketchbook doodle I did yesterday came out.

New year, new doodle book.

Just a butt I doodled while chatting with a friend. Thought I might share.

That is true. I did this here as a test quite a while ago. I just drew the base, did some minor squishing on the east and west views. The zako in DDP are more complex, but the workflow would be similar.

Here is something I made for Fire Lancer (shmup I am working on with @trap15.daifukkat.su and @moftsoft.bsky.social )
The left one is the tank base in an older version, and later I decided to give the ground enemies "perspective" to match the backgrounds better. This was done with just eyeballing.

And here is a sprite sheet for it.

This is the explosion where clearly 3D was used. You can see that it is just a bunch of sphere clumps with some weird texture.
January 6, 2026 at 8:50 PM
Here are all flying zako rotations (minus the rotors for the helis on the top) I amfairly sure that no 3D was used here, esp not on the top 3, but I reckon also not on the bottom 3. They are fairly wonky in places.

Have not done any digital colouring in a long time.
Felt like doing a quick colour pass, tying a new approach, on this lovely piece by @godivaghoul.bsky.social

Her work is so inspiring.

Just some random doodles I did earlier.

I've been looking at the Metal Slug 1-3 A LOT over the years and noticed this at the end of MS3 stage 2.

1) Crop of the bg just before the boss comes in.
2) Crop with a sprite that was overlayed removed.
3) Just that sprite.
4) Generic smoke puff animation the sprite was taken from.

continued...

More random sketchbook pages with coloured pencils.

Some more drawings from recent doodle sessions.

Some sketches from today which I mostly enjoy.
November 13, 2025 at 1:04 AM
Some new doodles...
November 3, 2025 at 1:13 PM
I looked through some files recently and found this. Totally forgot I made this. It's not really current anymore, but maybe someone will find it funny.
November 1, 2025 at 8:39 PM
Some doodle pages from yesterday night. Quite mixed, but also, just stream of consciousness doodles, p much. Having fun with a more scribbly approach in places.
