A 2x2 grid showing different art phases of the same pixel art portrait. The portrait displays a soldier in black wearing a metal faceguard stamped with a red hand. The phases are 1) pencil sketch, 2) inked and colored high-res, 3) raw downscale to 64x80 with artifacting, 4) pixel art touchup to remove blemishes from the downscale & increase clarity.

This is my process for the Xenogears-style portraits in the game. As you can see, my drawing skills are nothing special, and countless artists could do this phase quicker & better. The downscaling & pixel art phase actually hides some of my own limitations. #jrpg #pixelart #indiedev #gameart

As @robino.bsky.social (who, again, has also done this, beautifully so) predicted, I was indeed planning to draw some Final Fantasy 1 monsters with their limited NES palettes. A lot of great names in this first localization. "EVILMAN" "MADPONY" and "JIMERA" are some of my favorites. #FinalFantasy

Yes! I've been slowly picking away at making the whole Final Fantasy 1 monster roster for a few years now. AndrΓ©s' post makes me want to dust this off ASAP

Image displays a zoomed-out scene of a battle level from a tactics RPG. It's the courtyard of a medieval fortress lit by harsh evening light. Wooden barricades obstruct the path toward the keep, and two dragons guard the main entrance. A defensive battalion holds the high ground.

Zooming out to survey a big map. Castle levels are so much fun to make! #rpg #jrpg #turnbased #indiedev #indiegames

Illustration, in colour.
Featuring Amphorians, aliens with a radial symmetry body plan.
An adult amphorian is busy working while a human approach them with a wearable device used to communicate with them.
The device consist of 3 screens replicating the skin pattern used by amphorians to communicate. It is plugged to a bunch of computers operated by an other human.
3 little amphorians react to the scene. Either scared or curious.

Last time I did a #portfolioday post was in 2024.
I guess I can endure the excruciating pain of making a new one.

Oddly, this exact image of Grumman came to me in a dream last night wherein he was warning me about dark fey creatures that would try to trick me into being let inside my cabin at night.

I read through the His Dark Materials trilogy again recently in anticipation of the The Rose Field and was reminded of these sketches I did during my last read through.

A hypothetical Feebas evolution that is grey pink and teal and trailing fins similar to a betta fish. A cracked skull-like face has hollow eye sockets with glowing green flames inside. A fishhook pierces the pokemon's lip and trails an ethereal line behind it.
