This Mewgenics game is changing my brain chemistry in unprecedented ways. Here's some doodles of my favorite non-house cats lol #mewgenics #doodles #digitalart #artistonbluesky

Im excited for Art Fight this year lmao. Ive been going through a tough stint of artblock. I mostly work through it by drawing for mine and my friend's DnD campaign, but Id really like to make something more concrete soon lol

Ok, so I designed this monster guy for a "DnD" campaign I'm GMing for, but I can't for the life of me figure out what to call it. Does anybody have any ideas? lol #monster #monsterdesign #creaturedesign #scifi #worldbuilding #artistonbluesky #oc #ocart #originalcharacter

I want to touch up the comic and repost it before I start drawing issue 2. These are a couple test pages with Catie's updated design and some color added. Please let me know what you think! #oc #originalcharacter #comics #comic #scifi #scifiart #scificomic #characterdesign #artistonbluesky

Reposting this because I periodically think about Magic The Gathering's Thunder Junction set and it makes me sad lmao. Also, I actually like these designs quite a bit, so maybe I'll touch them up and reuse them somewhere else some day. #mtg #MagicTheGathering #characterdesign #fantasy #scifi

Now that college is out, I want to try and practice drawing again. Part of that is drawing stuff out of my comfort zone, so Im gonna open the floor to requests! That includes OCs, video game weapons, movie sets, whatever. Im not gonna promise to draw them all, but I'll try to work through most!

Let me know what you think! Doing some concept art stuff. Catie's face didnt seem jacked up enough to me, so Ive been playing around with that. Anyways, when I get something down that Im happy with Ill go back and rework the comic before pt2. #oc #scifi #comics #originalcharacter #scifiart #comic

Roxanne is a big fan of poker, mostly cause she wins all the time. Jurys still out on if she does so legitimately... #scifi #scifiart #ocart #originalcharacter #oc #artistonbluesky #worldbuilding #characterart

Little late, but its my birthday today! Happy birthday, me! Heres a little doodle to celebrate lol

More worldbuilding stuff. I dont do a lot of creature design, so let me know what you think! #worldbuilding #scifi #comics #monsterdesign #originalcharacter

God theres so much I want to work on but I cant because I made the mistake of buying Mewgenics and thats eating up all my brain power lol

Here are Dave and David's full unedited comments for those interested:

Wack ass creature doodles for my worldbuilding project. Im still working on the comic's second issue, I've just been profoundly busy lately lmao #worldbuilding #characterdesign #oc #scifi #originalcharacter

Nothing sucks more than learning art you like to look at is art you hate to make lmaoooo Ive been taking a graphic design class, and as much as I like typography Im learning that I hate having to choose fonts lol

WIP covers for my comic. First one is a rework of the first issues cover, second one is a prototype for the second issue. Im planning on rereleasing the first issue under the new name with some quality touchups. Maybe even do it weekly, see if that gets engagment lol. #oc #originalcharacter #comics

Is "Aliens are REAL and SCARY" too long for a general username? Ive been thinking about changing to that, since its the gamertag Ive used the longest, but it might be too long for something like an art account lol

Airbrush experiment with Trisha. I actually really enjoy using it for shading, so expect to see more of that from now on. Also, I love drawing Trisha but I dont really draw her jacked up and gross super often, so Im gonna practice that too lol. #scifi #oc #originalcharacter #biopunk #digitalart

Watching people get mad over mewgenics is almost comforting. Grass is green, birds fly, and psuedo-intellectuals will play morality politics instead of focusing on things that matter lol

WHEN PEGS FLY is here! Its a Peggle clone with a level editor! Its very, very basic, but if there ever been anytbing you want to imortalize as a peggle level now you can! Make shitposts! Send them to your friends! And please, let me know what you think! algaecaptain.itch.io/when-pegs-fl...

Just saw Iron Lung and I loved it! I thought it was a fantastic movie. The set design is great, the film is tense, Hulsult KILLs the soundtrack as usual. Markipliers acting is suprisingly pretty good, though I think its a little weaker at the beginning than it is by the end. Definetly recommend it!

I live and I have artwork! Hell i release a game recently I just havent made a podt about it yet lol

It wasnt Carpenter Bruts decision to use AI in the new video

New Carpenter Brut song fucks, but the video is very odd. 3d animation looks great, but then every 5 shots there'll be some dumb obviously AI generated thing. I dont get the point of using AI when it makes your product obviously weird and worse. Im just glad he doesn't use it in his music tbh

Some robot nonsense. Painted in photoshop + some 3d base.

EVERYONE GET MORE INSANE ABOUT YOUR OWN OCS NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My first ever comic has been finally finished! Well, technically it was finished a while ago, but I was trying to find the best way to post ot here. So here it is! Please enjoy, and let me know what you think at the end! [0/5] #originalcharacter #oc #comic #originalcomic #comics #artistonbluesky

Comic rough draft is done lol! Debating if I want to post it somewhere because Im super proud of it, but its obviously unfinished (mostly the backgrounds, I think the characters are fine lmao) If anyone wants to read it, lmk and I can share the google drive link!

A small collection of character artwork for a comics class. Im working on an 8 page comic that should hopefully be done pretty soon (since its due lol)

Somewhere, in our darkest night, we made up the story of a man who will never let us down.

All the attacks I did for Artfight this year! Though I didnt get to participate as much as I wanted, Im still glad I had the opportunity to draw so mamy cool characters! Character credits are below. Please check these guys out, their stuff is great!

aaahhhhh new weapon pickup sprites for Treasure Tech Land I did these all in about a day, some were slight touch ups but most were redone entirely

Some footage of my peggle clone. This is a level created and exported entirely in-game! I plan on releasing this project soon (either as a beta or demo, so lmk if you want to be notofied when it does! #artistonbluesky #peggle #gamedev #peggledeluxe

Made a tumblr account lol. Me and the website have a storied history, so itll be interesting to see whats changed, if anything. My handle is @algaecaptain, if you want to explore this brave new world together!

Bump (am I doing it right?)

One of many homunculi created by Vita Systemata in an attempt to make a disposable super-soldier. Being one of the first prototypes, Trisha fully retains humanity while being weaker than her siblings. Friendly and sociable, if not unusual. #originalcharacter #oc #scifi #artistonbluesky

To be honest with you, the more I think about it the more I kind of dislike Bluesky. The app itself it pretty good but the culture is pretty miserable. Dont get me wrong, I'll take it over nazi shit ANY day of the week, but I wonder sometimes why bother with social media at all?

Is it just me or is it really hard to get engament on bluesky? I can only average like 3 likes a post. Not that Ive ever been super popular, but Id figure itd have bumped up a bit by now. Whats the secret?

𝐒𝐈𝐑𝐎𝐂𝐂𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐔𝐆𝐒 DEMO OUT NOW! Links below 👇👇👇👇👇

Witchburner vs Witch. Realized the other day that Ive been sitting on some nice drawing pens, so expect to see some sketches with those over the next couple of days! #TrenchCrusade #artistonbluesky #drawing #traditionalart #originalartwork

wrapping up this year
