Wife was out of the house today. Kids were asleep. You wanna know what I did? Two and half hours of Rock Band ( #YARG) AND I had the time of my life. No regrets.

A few more!

More of my recent art expansions and reworks for Justice Fighters! These have been a lot of fun and I'm excited to get them all updated ASAP. That last one was my first full rework of a card called "The Pillow of Fury!"

I just got my steam key for @tempolab.games Bits &Bops. I cannot wait any longer for Launch Day. GIMME GIMME

A few more today. There's 305 total to get through, but progress is steady. #artistonbsky #justicefighters

More art expansions as Justice Fighters moves ever forward. #artonbsky #clipstudiopaint #JusticeFighters

On a night full of good news, I'm having a blast expanding more of these drawings to fit the new cards.

So, with Justice Fighters, I'm realizing that my original art is the wrong dimensions for the new design, so that means I get to expand what I currently have! Check it out!

More in my Justice Fighters experience, I have included a few pages of the art on these cards. These images will either be redrawn or expanded on the current remake

A simple redesign starts, mainly to give it a little polish. It's not perfect, but it's complete. For the first time ever, every card has the same format and will be together. I had never completed the full remake of the original cards with the first remake, so NOW'S THE TIME!

See, turns out my man @stuartkrugvo.bsky.social was getting married and asked that I be a groomsman! Neat! But a gift! What to get the man? And it hit me: give him a complete version of the game you've been working on for the last 20 years as a pet project. It'll be great! So I get started.

But, like all things, life got busy and JF had to take it to the sidelines. I found myself reminiscing on the good times and hilarious cards more often than not. I would get on little doodle streaks for cards on Sundays during church and think about making more cards when I got a call from a friend.

I added a resource system so cards had costs. It was still broken, but that was the fun of it. Justice Fighters cards made me laugh and the game was silly enough to be exciting to draw. So work continued and the cards cleaned up. I still used MS Word, but I was learning. This looked playable!

After many years and cards I lost motivation to make more cards, but things fired back up once I got married. A Christmas check from my parents led to a laminator and an newfound interest to make Justice Fighters into a thing. A REAL thing. Like a game that had rules and could be won. I got to work.

The cards were ROUGH, but they got the job done. Originally, the templates were hand drawn and then photocopied before I did some magic in Microsoft Word to make creating new cards faster. They were laminated in packing tape and mostly drawn during Geometry class. It was intoxicating.

So Justice Fighters started as a weekend sleepover watching YuGiOh one morning where the phrase "We could probably make a better card game than this" was uttered. I was goofing, my friend Clayton was not. We traced an MTG card and got to work. It was rudimentary at first, but the basics were there.

So I'm working on a huge project called "Justice Fighters" which ends up being my take on "Magic is too sweaty these days and prohibitively expensive and Yu-Gi-Oh is impossible to approach and the 'Un sets' of MTG made me smile" I want to show off some of the design process!

I'm having a lot of fun designing a card game that I'm looking to pitch at Gen Con next year. Watching it go from looking like a high school project made in Office, it looks a lot cleaner now. Also, I love having my handwriting as a font! Justice Fighters begins, BABYYYYY!

I am currently 70% done with the largest art project I have ever worked on. It's somewhere like 50 hours in the last 10 days. Today was 8 of those hours. I'll reveal it on Thursday when I reveal it to the person I will eventually be giving it to, but be excited @stuartkrugvo.bsky.social .

One week away from the event where I sell these! I'm having a blast. #perler #perlerart #sonic #sega

Hey. The Bananza DLC is EXCELLENT

Only this BUCKET OF WATER that releases at 500 RETWEETS can save BUGLET from being blown up by a CARTOON BOMB

I've been EVEN BUSIER this weekend. Here's the whole set. Just making as many as I can leading up to this event on the 20th #perler

More on the Perler project. More Smash icons and a Momo #smashbros #atla #perler

Today, in another episode of "Kevin crams in Perler making until the festival on the 18th", I finally ironed ALL of the Kirby power up cards. This took 8 hours. #kirby #perlerbeads #owmyarm

I've been back on my Perler kick. And I got a tell ya, it's felt preeeeetty good.

I just signed up for a both at a local event where I live. I'll be selling all my Perler stuff, so I'm making as many as I can for the next few weeks. Currently, Smash stock icons and Chrono Trigger.

Got busy this weekend changing up our room and I have become pretty proud of the new art corner and Mega Man shelf. I had a lot of fun figuring out posing with the Koto kits.

@adorablepotato.bsky.social these are ALL SO EXCELLENT. Glad to back the Kickstarter. I love love LOVE them all

Man, having a new entertainment center makes this house feel a hundred times swankier

HAHAHAHAHAHA. YES youtu.be/Ok8hd9D6ImM?...

Alright. I'm 3 hours in to the Playtest. I'm getting it.

📢 ISO of Devs Affected by Itch 📢 If your game got: • Deindexed • Removed • Payouts turned off Especially if you make Adult &/or LGBTQ+ #IndieGame or #VisualNovel, I want to talk to you. 🗣️ Please reply below with how you were affected. This is for a #Journalism piece. 🔁 RTs Appreciated 🔁

Finally deleted my Twitter account and I feel free. I'll find the artists I loved over here in due time. Until then, I'll just enjoy a much simpler life.

Just rolled credits on Bananza and I can honestly say that the finale had me enthralled from start to finish. Great wind up, great tension, EXCELLENT pacing and a TREMENDOUS payoff. Masterful work. 9.8/10 (it lags a little near the end)

Well THIS is exciting! I've been picked for giveaways/sweepstakes before, but this one feels more exciting. #nintendo #playtest

Woo Playtest! I'm in!

A reminder to you all that Jackson Parodi is doing one of the greatest services on Earth: making beautiful and excellent covers of video games music with the Accordion. Just EXCELLENT work and a credit to humanity. youtu.be/UwfvosiBgT8?...

Artists & game devs! Share your art app and 3 arts you made with it! #pixelart

Explaining my @ In the 5th grade I made a bunch of stick men super heroes. The SML (Stick Man League). I am their captain.

Sketch vs digital. It feels nice drawing again.

Updated the ol' ball and chain last night. Reposting it for your convenience.

I finished the project I was working on yesterday! It's for a card game I'm making and the card this belongs to is "No! None of that! Shame on you!" Made using pixilart.com. all hand drawn, never /-\ | #pixelart

Made a thing today that I'm fairly proud of. You might recognize this as my profile pic, but I made it pixel art! I'm still working on it, but I love it so far. Used Pixilart's website! #pixelart

Just finished the Axl kit from Kotobukiya. This makes 10 completed kits! Behold! My collection! (That needs a heavy dose of dusting) #megaman #modelkits #kotobukiya

The Day The Earth Blew Up might be the greatest movie I've seen in years. Shame on WB for thinking this was better as a write off. Good HEAVENS it's great to watch Looney Tunes again. Please please PLEASE watch it as soon as you can. youtu.be/BtHUWHXfDyU?...

OH MAN THERE'S MORE #ActivisionAIAds! Here's the ones for Crash Bandicoot Brawl. These are excellent to dig into

So... I'm not sure what I'm more confused by with Activision's AI ads. Like, did you think we wouldn't notice? Did you think this looked GOOD? Did anybody look at it for more than 8 seconds and say "Does this look like we need to make any edits?" If y'all are listening, this sucks real bad.

New @cheekface.bsky.social dropped this weekend and it is liquid quality poured directly into your brain. Screw Spotify and support them with your real American dollars. I know I did. cheekface.bandcamp.com/album/middle...

In my spare time (and when I think about it) I work on a card game I tinkered around with back in high school! This is Justice Fighters, and I worked on some cards today!
