NickHerf 🍂 Looking for work 🍂

Character Designer | MCAD graduate in Animation | Aspiring game dev | He/him
It seems like the animation sphere (specifically the indie sphere) has such an aversion to episodic stories/sitcoms nowadays. I'd love to just say "fuck it" and try to make one myself, but I'm unfortunately a terrible writer and my indie game is making me realize how much I hate being a director 💀
ko-fi.com/nickherf/com... I'm in a very rough spot financially right now and could really use the help. So if you wanna help me out and get a drawing out of it, here's your chance

I'm happy to see that we're still getting new and original icons in horror #backrooms #teenagesexanddeathatcampmiasma #tsadacm
More 10 minute warmup sketches. I did some fun spear poses with Little Death from Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma #littledeath
Got one more #artfight2026 attack in me for the year! Capping it off with DaKingODonut's cowpoke, the Prospector! I've also got a character by this moniker! Mine's just a huge buff lady instead of a silly little dude. Love this guy's goofy energy
Wanted to do a more simple pose as a cooldown the other night for #artfight2026 and I felt that dashfox27's Charlie fit the bill for it. Idk if she knows how to use a rifle, but she looks like she'd have killer aim
Couldn't resist attacking @ballpitbee.bsky.social again for #artfight2026, this time their cactus cowpoke, Poquer Flores (fantastic name btw)
Okay back to #artfight2026 cowboys! This time, it's arch-aeology on Tumblr's character, Jeremiah Red Wolf! Just a good ol' fashioned classic gunslinger. Gotta love it
I wish I saw the joy in just making art for art's sake again, but I can't
Firing another #artfight2026 attack at @themichibear.bsky.social's Lee Ramirez. Love their vibes! Glad I clocked that they're very "Jim from OFMD but a cowboy instead of a pirate"
Another six-shootin' #artfight2026 attack! This time aimed right at ward-706 on Tumblr's murderous feller, Shepard Walsh!
Fell a little behind with my #artfight2026 stuff on here, but here's another cowpoke! It's Next @theletter-r.bsky.social's Husk! Love this dude's vibe tbh
"We Are Animals. That's All We Are Tonight" A self-indulgent little drawing, mainly inspired by one of the latest singles by @sarahandthesafeword.com
Not all that much to report this week, pardners. We're still chipping away at our next leg for this year's 2D Con, primarily the Blademaster boss fight. In the meantime, have this mighty fine drawing of the Sheriff done by the talented @ballpitbee.bsky.social for #artfight2026
#artfight2026 attack against @toastyghostey.newgrounds.com's character, The Victorian! Not really a "cowboy" per se, but the vibes are there. And sometimes you just see a character with so much aura that you have to draw them #artfight
With #deltarune chapter 5 having been out for a little while now, I thought I'd repost this antagonist OC I designed last year after becoming hopelessly obsessed with this game. He's themed around radio to go with Queen and Tenna being the internet and TV
#artfight2026 attack against @ballpitbee.bsky.social! I plan on mostly doing cowboy characters and am starting with his funky lil guy, Johnny Goode! #artfight
Spent like 15-20 minutes scribbling out a pirate Muffet while getting ready for a con because I've been seeing tons of pirate Gaster jokes on Twitter and they've been slaying me #undertale #deltarune
Idle animations + a background for the characters I made for Gambler Gambling: A game jam game made for #juniperdev 's Very Serious Game Jam #indiedev townfunk.itch.io/gambler-gamb...
Did a bunch of art for a game submitted to a Very Serious Game Jam hosted by #juniperdev #gamedev #indiedev townfunk.itch.io/gambler-gamb...
Can I please just get paid to do art for someone else's vision? I don't want to be at the helm of my own project. It's just too much 😓
The cis guys who still relate to Jax will arise as the world's strongest grunglers. Myself included. #tadc #digitalcircus
Rip Jax Digital Circus, you would've loved @sarahandthesafeword.com
I hope gooseworx takes a very long relaxing vacation and then makes a million more things
