Oh, hai there! You caught me drawing 😜 Here's a 'not at all staged' shot of me working on illustrations for our indie game Lost & Bound 😎 Hello to friends and followers, old and new! I hope you've been having a good Autumn and you're gearing up for Halloween? What are you dressing up as this year? 🎃

Finally, I wanted to try animating one of my oil pastel sketches. I'm really pleased with how this last one turned out! 🥰 🏰 It was great getting back into oil pastels for this project, and I'm definitely eager to revisit them in the future. Sound by RTB45 on freesound 'Belize - Jungle at Night'.

Lovely character design for @astrafauna.bsky.social 🍃

most people don't want politics that hurt other people. we just want a long overcoat like david bowie and affordable housing

For this one, I wanted to push the idea that it could be a game background, hence adding the bridge and the stepping stones. 🌴🌿💧 Which path would you take?

Goose on the loose!! #art #illustration

Here's the other 3 from this past comission :) #art #illustration #drawing

Initiation Well at Quinta Da Regaleira! This was such an awesome place 🤩 I can easily imagine strange rituals and ceremonies taking place here. It had a magical atmosphere. I definitely recommend a visit ✨🔮 I'd love to see a little, animated character running down from top to bottom in this one! 🏃‍♀️

For the next few experiments, I wanted to try moving into more of a 16:9 format so I could really imagine them as backgrounds for a mobile game or an animation. 👀 I enjoyed working on the water and reflections in this one! 🌊

Look at him!

The structures dotted around the beautiful gardens at Quinta Da Regaleira in Sintra are so magical and inspiring 😍🧚For this oil pastel experiment, I just wanted to have some fun and get lost in the drawing. I really like how the trees at the top turned out.

Loving @toadlett.bsky.social Objectober sketches. THESE KEYS! 🔑🖤

Beautiful illustration and stunning perspective by @alariko.bsky.social. Very inspiring!

Here, I wanted to play with the amount of detail to include in the Palace in the background. I was trying to imagine a game character running across the scene from the foreground to the back, and therefore didn't want the background to be overly detailed.🏰 Not my finest, but a fun experiment! 🧪😄

[*nktober day 2] ma'am you can't bring that in here

These first few oil pastel images that I'm sharing were the initial tests that I carried out for the project. 🧪 Though I've used oil pastel in the past, I hadn't used it like this for a while, so I wanted to loosen up and get back into it. I really love oil pastels as a medium.🎨

🧚How do? I hope everybody enjoyed their Summer 🌞 🌊 After a little hiatus, I thought I'd get back to sharing again! 🎨 A while back, I had an awesome day at the very magical Quinta da Regaleira in Sintra, Portugal. I've since made a series of oil pastel explorations inspired by my visit 😄

This looks gorgeous, will look forward to seeing more on 'Brewess' from @fairergames.bsky.social 👀🍻

The end of Summer...*sigh* Here's a gorgeous illustration by @jdebbiel.bsky.social that makes it more bearable 🌞👋

Happy birthday! I love that you've chosen the medium of Owls to share this news 🦉 The best medium, of course! Looking forward to checking out your shop 😄

Francisco de Goya (1746-1828), “To Market” (sketchbook F, sheet 17, 1812-20), brush and iron-gall ink wash, on laid paper, 14.3 x 20.4 cm.

I love the character design in Creatures Like Us 😍 gutted I missed the chance to play it @brilliantindietreasures.com *adds to Steam wishlist*!

After about 2 years my strange clockwork-cosmic-horror-narrative-card/boardgame Is released! Proud of this one, hope it does well enough for me to keep exploring this unique and exciting avenue of game dev.

I am exceedingly happy to present 'BAT STORIES' a short thread of wonderful bat lore written by the very talented @ptrtlrwrts.bsky.social to accompany some bat character sketches I made this week. Thank you for bringing these bats to life Peter! 🦇🖤🦇🖤

There were various things I was supposed to do this afternoon, but instead I drew some bats 🦇 I figured they could use some names. What do you think we should call them? I've given them numbers so we know who's who! Will also accept professions and back stories (bat stories) 😄

One of the toughest parts in making this was figuring out how to make these bugs climb properly. They can climb anything that's touching the ground, including other larva. They propagate the "groundedness" to each other with an expiration time for that groundedness. #gamedev #indiegamedev

Ye olde shoppe sketchy time 🖊️ 🖤

There’s so much you can show with each illustration, from process to exploration, to small sections like this capturing a moment of the creation. This is short, but I loved the output and I’m glad I have these small moments that tend to be forgotten or overlooked :)

Can't wait to see this tomorrow and discover more of Tirzah Garwood's art. I've been reading her autobiography and it's such a delicious read! So many fascinating stories from the twenties onwards, a real time capsule! 📖

I really fell in love with the brush pen whilst working on our game Lost & Bound. Prior to 2023 I’d never tried one and then picked one up on our Japan trip in a stationary store. It took my a while to get used to, but I love the different kinds of marks you can make. 🖌️

Stunning work by @pigeonface.bsky.social 🖤🌸

When in doubt, draw a werewolf.

🐰 In Lost & Bound, Clementine’s journal serves as a key part of the narrative and UI. It gave me a lovely opportunity to have further fun creating characters and back story! Here’s Arthur Morgan, the founding Father of ‘The Hallowed Order’. Inspiration: Victorian Gangsters. 🐰😎

Absolutely Loved @alexfranklinhallo.bsky.social's awesome show Gurl Code. A most excellent blend of comedy, music, emotions and slideshow craft. Please come to Brighton again soon! 💓

I remember playing Myst a couple of times and probably being a bit too young and finding it a bit to hard. But I still remember the vibe and it was STRONG! www.atlasobscura.com/articles/exp...

Meet Errol Locke, the main protagonist in our game Lost & Bound 🐰. For some reason, when we first started playing with concepts for the game, I went ‘down the rabbit hole’ drawing rabbity characters! I really enjoy character design, and it’s something I’d love to do more of and grow my skills in. ✏️

It's NEWT SEASON! Very much enjoying spotting these little guys in our local park ponds. So cute! 🐉https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/blog/2020/02/british-newt-id/

Would definitely check out the garlic fries! Gorgeous game illustration by @paraplyshop.com 🍟
