Been super fond of early 6th gen "Quake 3" style textures lately and decided to start messing with low res airbrush art for the first time in years. I didn't really go in with a plan but I thought these practice sketches were neat lol

Would love if one day we had the source files for Half-Life's model textures, especially the original painter files. We have some of the photo textures for the world, but high res character textures is something I'm really interested in.

I could never decide if I wanted to commit to stylized abstract cartoony style art, or rendered, "realistic", detailed kind of art. I realized recently I can just accept I have a broad artistic range. I love playing with art too much to only stick with one way of doing it.

I feel like if you're uploading a png that's like 320 pixels or smaller it should never be converted to a jpeg.

One of the first ideas i had for The Showrunner is that it can shine its blinding gaze around as spotlights! Today I finally drew that! #ChaoArt #OC #Showrunner

I've been drawing more and drawing faster again. Trying not to overhype myself, but if this keeps up, that means I'll be able to do more 2D animation again and I'm really excited for that possibility.

Recent Sonic pixel art in the Quake 1 palette because I like Quake 1's weird blues

Couple recent random profile-view furries

Putting Dante in everything: part 32 #pixelart #dante

X's algorithm is screwing me over so I think it's time to start posting here more. lol Completely overhauled Teabat's shopkeeper animations and interface ( including some excellent modeling and animation from @hyperchaotix.bsky.social ) #gamedev #indiedev #pixelart

Recent Shadow sketch for you guys

Continuing to improve in some pretty substantial ways. I've been drawing a ton lately and really getting back in touch with my sense of self. I'm still not the biggest fan of social media, but I would like to start posting stuff again soon, just to share a bit of the fun I've been having.

I should post that Rouge sculpt I was working on a month and a half ago....

Finally feeling better, good enough to enjoy and take in the new space. Head is clearer, way less stressed, much happier. Days feel more meaningful. It's getting a lot easier to draw routinely again so that's something we can both look forward to

this was drawn upon the request of a friend. a nonspecific crustacean who is very dapper. bask in his glory

Doing better but still siiiiick!!!! On the plus side we are now 100% fully moved in to the new place and the old place is dealt with now

I sometimes think about how good designs can make great intentional use of tangents, especially cartoony characters like Mickey Mouse or Sonic. And I wonder if the "tangents are bad!" oversimplification is part of why people sometimes struggle with them or add awkward details that break good flow.

Once I'm not sick I'm gonna draw so much

For @hyperchaotix.bsky.social Happy birthday!!

Birthday doodle for my good pal @hyperchaotix.bsky.social. The last time I drew his critter and mine together was quite a while ago, so I thought it'd be fun to redo the premise. #cartoonist, #sketch, #artist

Getting sick during the last stretch of a move is a fun time lmao

We're almost there! Also this cartoon is really cute, really excited for you guys to see it

Late night doodle before I pack up my computer.

Update: The move is going well! I am tired tho

My husbands work is:

I finally figured out how to do this shimmering effect

One of our big expenses is coming up soon! But for everyone who has donated already, thank you so much, it's going to help a lot!

My partner @hyperchaotix.bsky.social and I are moving very soon! We've set up a Ko-fi goal to help build up some funds for the process! We would both very much appreciate any amount of help y'all are willing to give! If you donate you'll get to see what I'm workin' on too! ko-fi.com/chaofanatic

Hey!! So looks like we'll be able to move soon! We could use a little help since we're between apartments (and our current one costs way too much, hence our moving), nothing is required but everything is appreciated!! In any case you should check out my partner's stuff, it's really neat!

A lot of people who should know better would walk right into supporting a second Hays Code

Experimental Ralsei doodle from last month

When I'm not as mentally "stuck" I want to make even more art and have fun with it again. I want to make more 2D animations, I miss it a lot.

Struggling a bit to get some full drawings done. Have some recent Sonic and Eggman doodles

HEY!!! @hyperchaotix.bsky.social and I are looking to move soon! I've set up a new Ko-Fi goal to help build up some extra funds for that! We'd really appreciate it if anyone could help us out! If you do you'll get to see some behind the scenes stuff of things I make! ko-fi.com/chaofanatic

Humans have been making art for thousands of years. Show me art or a piece of media you like or at least find interesting from before 1979

Mario Sironi died in 61. A complicated artist with a tragic life and ties to fascism, spared by partisans at the end of Italian liberation for his sheer artistic importance to the country His urban work is almost anti-Futurist. Simple forms drenched in existential dread of the present. I love it

I need to push this more but being on nerve pain meds is making me barely functional right now 😭 I may need to do another after I hit goal because of recent medical emergency expenses + payment processor fees eating a large chunk of it before it gets to me. Thank you everyone who helped so far. 💗

embarrassing myself

Gamers are angry and vindictive and will act when their hobby is threatened, Valve is the biggest game distributor in this market. At this point, if Valve dropped Visa and Mastercard, and pointed the finger at a target, Banks might get some *real* pressure for a change.

You know what, let's start off with my most popular animation from the old site.

I will likely be opening commissions in the near future. I'm thinking of starting with some of my painted stuff, both full and busts, as well as maybe some inked/cel-shaded stuff. Would any of you guys be interested in something like that?

Would yall be interested in me starting a patreon and sharing BTS and WIP stuff of cartoons and whatever I happen to be doing? I do a lot of rather complicated dev stuff for my thingies and I'd love to show it off more!

Nichifying broad ideas is really funny to me. Every time I get some recommended video where someone is talking about "the art community" I can't help but think of shit like "The air breathing community has a gatekeeping problem" "Toxicity in the clothes wearing fandom" Cult Planet

Figured out how to mod animations into Sonic Heroes recently while I was trying to figure out if I could do custom models. Made this as a little test (it works in-game too)

Let's properly meet Branlin!

Recently I've been thinking about the advantages of limited animation for artistic and aesthetic reasons. Normally I prefer making flashy, fluid, full framerate animations just cause I enjoy the process so much and while that hasn't changed, I'm reevaluating the artistic advantages of limits...
