Soldiers give accounts of faces in the dark, watching them.
It's done. all that's left is to go to the printing shop and print it on a random shirt to see what it actually looks like. I'm gonna print it both of the front and back cuz I'm thinking i want both as an option. the logo I'm still tinkering with this is what it looks like for now.
Im working on a shirt design, its coming along slowly. im kinda just throwing things at it seeing what sticks, and im quite enjoying it. if it ends up looking anything like the mock up i did id be pretty fuckin happy to wear that.
Berla is slowly getting fleshed out, and im liking where its heading.
Finally working on a video about Berla. it'll be a fun place to explore visually cuz i suck at architecture and itll force me to get comfortable with it.
NEW VIDEO! collab with Power fantasy. We drew designs for each others settings which was very fun, hope you enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcNL...

I'm working on a poster idea, I know I've been all over the place with what I want to work on but i think this shows promises, still a lot to iron out composition wise but I'm enjoying the process... for now.

feel like its still missing something, like there needs to be another element added to the design to really cap it off. at the moment it still kinda feels like its a harder basic enemy in a game rather than a boss if that makes sense. give me suggestions on what you think i can add
Im currently working on a witch of parasites and i like the design alot but I'm sorry because its going to be absolutely vile, listen the concept asked to be this way i had no say, it spoke to me.
after the stream and came back again to try and draw the design we came up with on the computer instead. i feel a lot better about it now, still need to make it look rougher though i think it still looks too clean but i like the shapes. this is a witch btw or a type of one.
Another wonderful video from this word which is also a game! you better check it out, i highly recommend it, the game dev videos as well www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuBC...

Rattletooth with some bebis This was my first try at #digitalpainting feathers, and I cant fathom how people paint intricate patterned birds with traditional paint... thats next level. Will upload the lore page and timelapse for this birb tomorrow! #specevo #illustration #sciart #digitalart
Its not finished it can definitely use some more work with the lighting and values but im leaving it as it is for now to focus on other images and i can always come back to work on this one more.
This is a test to see how bluesky compresses images... I have a #layout for the #book Im working on. I hope the text will be readable but I doubt it. #specevo #illustration #worldbuilding #digitalart
cleaning it up now so its easier to tell whats goin on, ratboy is stealin.
first pf the scenes im drawing to set the mood for the world of rust and trenches, still needs alot of work but i like where its going.
the Dust hog or as we have lovingly decided to call it the Sluppy, is one of the strangest animals who calls world of rust and trenches home. It's a mammal that uses disintegration magic to pretty much swim through the earth. though their most strange feature probably is their inflatable input.
I'm making a big ol image that will show the scale of all the things in Rust and Trenches ill have to fiddle around with how much to overlap the characters as to not make it too wide but also have good readability. ill iron it out slowly but its going good. most of these are still placeholder.
