Dang you Oda and One Piece for making me cry like 10+ times during this Egghead Arc. Both Kuma's and Bonney's backstory and adventure through this arc is one of the saddest, sweetest, and greatest things I have ever got to witness through any sort of media. Brilliant work! 😭

Completed my first ever playthrough of FINAL FANTASY PIXEL REMASTER. I have never played the original either so I have no knowledge or nostalgia of this game. I felt that the story, characters, and combat were pretty simple but none of that deterred my curiosity to complete this game. I recommend 👍

After 30-ish hours, Persona 5 Tactica is complete. Overall, a very easy game that takes a while for the story to develop but finishes on a strong note. The art style is adorable, and I love how they incorporated Persona mechanics (ex. One More, the All-Out Attack) into a tactics game. I recommend 👍

After 100+ hours, I have rolled credits on Pokemon Pokopia, and I feel nowhere near done with this game. There is never a moment during gameplay where I feel like I have nothing to do, and every Pokemon feels like they can contribute towards my building goals. Easily my pick for GOTY 2026 already!

Got to play Pokemon Pokopia while resting this weekend and "obsessed" would be an understatement. The amount of creative freedom and tinkering this game allows you to experiment with seems limitless, and I love all the little interactions between Pokemon. Cannot wait to get home to play some more!

Since the Animal Crossing: New Horizons update launched last month, my fiancée got reabsorbed into her island adventures, making less time for us. I can tell she's getting tired of AC... however, Pokemon Pokopia is about to release, and she seems excited for that too! (Don't take this post serious)

Completed Yakuza Kiwami after 40-ish hours. While I loved my introduction to the over-the-top yet serious world of Yakuza through Yakuza 0, I feel like Kiwami was a step down for me. It was a lot of the same but without a lot of the charm that made 0 so special for me. Still recommend tho 👍

finally over the flu and back to the grind! Here is the final version of the Hinoka commission for @babblingbird ❤️

Happy Chinese New Year! 🐎🧧 #zbrush #horses #yearofthehorse #3d

If you have never heard of or seen the fighting game franchise of Power Stone from CAPCOM, this video is for you! I recently took a trip down memory lane to revisit this franchise's interactive stages, wide arsenal of weapons and items, and super fun combat. Highly recommend this series 💎

I cannot describe the thrill of finally understanding words or phrases when learning a new language and being able to properly communicate them back. For instance, I'm currently learning Japanese for my return trip next year and the small tidbit of time information I can exchange has me ecstatic!

Happy Faye Valentine’s Day! My first full illustration of 2026. I had a blast designing this one. The colors were super influenced by the TANK opening theme. I also tossed in a few of my favorite Easter eggs into the background. #cowboybebop #edwinhuang #fayevalentine

Completed Pokemon Legends: Arceus after 60+ hours. This is the closest version to the Pokemon game of my dreams. The gameplay and story are more focused on understanding Pokemon rather than just becoming the best trainer in a region. More details in this thread but I recommend 👍

After testing out quite a lot from the demo, I absolutely enjoyed what this game is offering. Everything from the art style to the voice acting and even getting to hear those legendary DQ fanfares for the first time has convinced me to pick up the full game. Highly recommend 👍

Gonna stream my first ever experience with a Dragon Quest game with Dragon Quest VII Reimagined. I’ve been wanting to check out the Dragon Quest series for quite a while so why not start with the free demo of VII. I’ll be sharing my thoughts on stream and I may post them on here afterwards

A little late on this but why not, I've never done a #PortfolioDay post. My name's Shawn, I've been fiddling around with various graphic design softwares for somewhere around 25 years. I tend to do a lot of vector designs these days, but I'm also a bit of a photoshop wizard if you ask me.

BRO WHAT?! My fiancée @cassiebossmann.bsky.social rented out a theater room so we can game it up on the big screen for my birthday. Best life partner ever! (Also ignore the quick Photoshop work 😅)

If you have the capability to play Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, please do! This is not only one of my favorite Fire Emblem games but it's also one of my favorite games of all time. Now that there's another way to access it, it's the perfect time to give this game a shot. Highly recommend 👍

So I finally played Mario Kart World, completed just the Grand Prix cups, and it just did NOT hit for me as other entries. While it's gorgeous to look at and comes with one of the best Nintendo soundtracks, the racing doesn't feel as tight as its predecessors. I'll add more but I lightly recommend 😅

Finished the final season of My Hero Academia. The last season delivered some of the best animation the series has ever seen and managed to make MHA's most emotional moments more impactful. It's been a heck of ride and thank you to everyone who made this series come alive. Highly recommend 👍

We reached the January 2026 illustration goal! Thank you so much everyone! You can get the full res version on dropbox! www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/iywva...

So 100+ hours later (not even joking), I have completed The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and this game absolutely f***s (especially Geralt). I loved the dynamic questline system and the detailed voice acting helped me stay immersed tremendously. I'll add more comments but I highly recommend this game 👍

Forced out of my Holiday cave to rejoin society (deep sigh) but I did enjoy a lot of media while I was away: - Finished The Witcher 3 - Finished My Hero Academia - Finished Stranger Things - And more I'll be dropping my reviews and thoughts on all of these during the week so stay tuned!

Bye 2025, I'm going to be a blob and play video games until next week. 🫠 #artvsartist2025

Day ?? of Holiday vacation. I have lost all concept of space and time. Been so deep into my gaming backlog, anime, and entertainment that I have no idea where I am currently. I took a step outside and was blinded by a very shiny object in the sky... (Also, welcome to all the new artists on here!)

The Holidays arrived a little early. I got a fiancée and she came with a free Switch 2!!!

Finally got a hold of my Steam Replay for 2025 and what a freaking gaming year I had on PC and on my Steam Deck! I'm not sure if I'll ever have this banger of a gaming line-up again for my replays 😅

Watched all of S1 of Sakamoto Days. Love the animation style that was done for this series especially within the fight/action scenes and it has lots of comedic moments; however, I feel like this series has a habit of introducing characters and quickly dropping them to the wayside. I recommend 👍

There were a lot of awesome things from the 2025 Game Awards last night for me. To name a few: - New Old Republic reveal - New CONTROL game - E33 sweep including GOTY But my favorite reveal happened during the pre-show. Bradley the Badger looked like so much fun!

My game of the year. It made me feel wheeeee and then whoooooo. #expedition33 #clipstudiopaint

Finally got access to my PlayStation wrap for 2025 and WOW! The PlayStation use to be my go-to option to play games (outside of Nintendo ones), but ever since their exclusives started going to PC, I've been finding it harder to find a reason to turn my PlayStation console on. The changing of times 😅

Finished the anime Carole & Tuesday. It feels like the anime is going somewhere, especially in the 1st half, but then it tries to go everywhere in so little time. Plot points open up but they don't feel like they serve a purpose? At least the aesthetic and vibe was good. Lightly recommend 😅

Watching @prozdplaysgames.bsky.social go through Majora's Mask for the first time makes my day. I love this game so much I modelled all 3 Link forms. Maybe I should make Fierce Diety after all?

Yeah I stream on Twitch (and I apologize for this) but I am way more of a viewer. My Top 5 Most Watched Channels for 2025 had some newcomers and a new number one?! I can heavily vouch for either of these streamers so please check them out if you can! #twitchrecap

Another year. Another No Shave November complete!

Was not expecting this at all! A Shiny Virizion after completing the Pokemon GO Pass for November. Look at the cute background 🤩

Kirby Air Riders is actually giving me some fomo now. Still can't justify a switch 2 though. 😩

BELIEVE IN ME WHO BELIEVES IN YOU

I thought it was strange that a lot of artists yesterday were showcasing Frieren art out of nowhere, but then I finally realized as to why that was happening 😂 I can tell I'm becoming less in tune with internet trends/memes...

Stealing content?! My fiancée cassieebossmann was recently informed that one of her clarinet covers was being used by another creator named aylexthunder and disguising it as his own. More artists are coming out now and providing more proof he has been stealing their content as well. Call him out!

Finally started playing The Witcher 3, my first of any Witcher game, and what an absolute banger! I can't believe I never played this game. There is so much flexibility in this game from tackling quest to crafting gear that makes it hard to put it down. I'll report back 100+ hours later...

After 68 hours of playing the entire Apollo Justice Trilogy, I am confident in recommending these games. While this trilogy for sure had its ups and downs, I still experienced moments of joy, and I couldn't wait to turn every single case around. Thank you for more fun adventures Ace Attorney! 🧡
