A quick Bidoof for my birthday :) . #pixelart

I really like the contrast between Swerve and Prince Nana. The combo of a serious, intimidating wrestler with a silly dance shouldn't work, but it's one of my favourite entrances. University's gone back, so this will be the last of these I do for a while. #AEW #pixelart

A quick #shadow the hedgehog toy for today's daily. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

My PhD has officially begun aaaaa! I won't be doing as much pixel art as I have over the break, but I will keep working on my art skills. I have one big piece of fan art to finish, and then focus will shift to game assets for my PhD project. Exciting times!

Just a quick one for the #lighter prompt. I made the flame slightly transparent, but I think several layers of transparency might have worked better if I had more time. All good practice! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Here's a late one for the 4 colour #flowerbed prompt. This was tricky! I'm used to using a much larger pallette. The final result isn't much like the succulent from the garden, but it is identifiably a plant at least! I left the background transparent for extra contrast. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Poor Zelda seems to end up in a #forcefield no matter where she goes! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Pixel art practice continues with another AEW wrestler, Toni Storm. I don't think I got the hands quite right, but her expression was a lot of fun to draw! #AEW #ToniStorm #pixelart

For the King II has some fun creature designs, including this wizard #crab. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

The mini boss in Majora's Mask's Woodall Temple pairs a #HighDefenceCreature, the Snapper, with a speedy Gekko. What a team! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

I tried to go with a fairly simple design for #band, but this one took a while. So many colours are needed to make a convincing gold, and the transparent stone was also tricky. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Since I replayed Ocarina of Time recently, Majora's Mask was next. Enjoying it so far! There's so many little quality of life things in the sequel, like much faster text and better item management. Just finished the first temple and had to draw the Deku Princess. She's so cute! #pixelart #zelda

My cat is nicknamed 'The Empress', so my husband got a #customised portrait of her. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Here's a late one for #neonlights . I don't think she ended up looking much like the stock photo model. Amazing how much a single pixel can change a face! Good practice all the same. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Post a game you remember playing that no-one else remembers. Sonic 2 on Master System was only released in PAL regions, and is different from the Mega Drive version. It isn't the most obscure game I've played, but it was really foundational- a game I completely fell in love with.

For the #pipes prompt I tracked down the cover art for Pipe Dream, which was pre-installed on the family computer in the 90s. This was a tough composition! Everything is orange and green, which made it hard to get enough contrast to be readable in pixel form. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

I drew Luchasaurus from AEW. The tattoos were tricky and the composition looked better without them, but it wouldn't be authentic to leave him bare! I'm trying out canvas sizes for my next game and I might go smaller. This looks nice but took a long time! #pixelart

For #PortfolioDay, I thought I'd share some of my Twine work. I've made four games over the course of my university studies, and my PhD will likely include one too. They're all free, so if you have some spare time I'd love to know what you think! amy-davidson.itch.io

Art train! Thanks @pixelcel.bsky.social for the nomination :) @lexidraws.bsky.social @ilarioraio.bsky.social @macwebdesign.bsky.social @intox404.bsky.social @sean-dc.bsky.social @shymoonpixels.bsky.social Everyone is welcome! #pixelart #arttrain

I have a nasty cold and ended up playing through all of Dispatch over the course of two days. Fun game! I really liked the mix of telltale style storytelling and the dispatch minigame itself. This is Sonar, the best kind of bat man. #pixelart

Been a while since I tried some animation, so my #bellsprout is going for a walk! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

In the original version of Alex Kidd in Miracle World, there was a #rice ball at the end of every level. Later releases replaced it with a hamburger! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

For the #marble prompt, I drew a scene from Super Monkey Ball. This was a tricky one! I had a whole background drawn out but it looked too busy so I got rid of it. I probably should have reduced the number of platforms too! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

I always found the warrior #dice from #DiceyDungeons quite charming. Trickiest bit was trying to get the circles right on his head! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Just finished my replay of Ocarina of Time. It came up as inspiration for a few pixel art pieces, so it was time to play again. For a long time this was my favourite game, and I still love it dearly. It's a modern fairytale. It was the game that made me want to become a game developer.

On a hot day, you can often find my cat #flipped . #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Just finished Red Dead Redemption 2. One I put off for a long time because I'm not into shooters or open worlds, but the story's great and it does both of those things so well I loved it. At one point I got a murder charge without doing anything, so I made a poster of the lead suspect. #pixelart

I tried my best to recreate this #surrealcreature we found in a second hand shop. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Today I drew an Australasian Shoveler, a #duck native to Australia and New Zealand. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

The original Animal Crossing had a clever way to show #fireworks without changing the camera angle. #pixelart #pixel_dailies #AnimalCrossing

FINALLY!!! 😍 Fruit Fusion is OUT NOW for FREE!🥳 Please go give some love, this is my first game🥹💖 store.steampowered.com/app/4219340/... #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #pixelart #steam

hi guys !! i’ve made a starter pack with pixel artists who have less than 1k followers ! i will keep adding to it every so often until it’s full !! please share if possible :3 • #pixelart go.bsky.app/8BDCzEb

Eggman and his grandfather have a unique approach to getting through #security. #pixelart #pixel_dailies #sonic

Today I drew the logo from Ridiculous #Fishing . This was an interesting one to tackle. I'm usually trying to create the illusion of curves in pixel art, but this was all hard edges. Easy to line up, but hard to picture the full composition. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Charjabug's #spark makes them a great camping companion! #pixelart #pixel_dailies #pokemon

My husband got me this lovely stylus as an early Christmas #present. I didn't take it with me to visit family since there's kids about, and going back to the old one is rough! I also had a go at a wrapping paper background. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Just a quick one today since it is Christmas! A Santa hat for #winterclothing. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

I had a crack at doing a hopping #mouse for today's prompt. They jump like kangaroos! I think I overdid it on the fur a bit. So many colours! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

My #gingerbreadcreature is a festive Baba Yaga! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

#king boo was fun to draw. What a smile! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

My cat quiet likes to check out #packaging, but only the finest boxes are sat in. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

This stock photo lady has a really cool forehead #pendant. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

The #tumbleweed sidequest in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom took me forever! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Crypt of the Necrodancer's golden lure is a very #ScaryMusicalInstrument! #pixelart #pixel_dailies #necrodancer

Link encounters a lot of #sokoban puzzles during his adventures! I used a scan from the Ocarina of Time manual as a reference, which was good but I just couldn't get the face to work! Derpy Link likes adventures too XD. #pixelart #pixel_dailies #zelda

A #set of #rock Pokemon celebrating Christmas. #pixelart #pixel_dailies

Getting to the top of the spire is quite the #expedition! #pixelart #pixel_dailies #SlaytheSpire

Australia has a lot of warning signs about bushfires as it's a common #NaturalDisaster here I always found this one kinda funny. Like my house would burst into flames if I didn't put away my socks. #pixelart #pixeldailies

Here's my attempt at the #toothbrush prompt. I wanted to practice faces a bit more. The proportions are okay, but the nose is pretty wonky and the lady in the stock image looks much less demonic, so I've still got some work to do! #pixelart #pixel_dailies

I am officially a PhD student!!! So excited!
