Hey, I'll be starting to post my new art here. I'm a pixel artist, which means I draw with a 1x1 brush, one pixel at a time. Sorta like lo-fi graphics. Retroooo :3

I was bored, so I made this interesting illusion! Tell me what you think it says!
+1 cookie if you get it.

Your stuff is amazing. I know this is too late in all, but are you still drawing people's armatars? If so, could you draw mine?

BTW you deserve a merit.

Thanks everyone!

Nope, you're actually correct! *hands cookie*

3. Yes, is does say ninto. It's a kind of Pokemon.


...It is? I came up with that name completely on my own. I just googl'd it, and found nothing. So... you might be thinking of something else.

Here, have a dragon.
(Linked because the image is quite big. Also, it's not pixel art, it's watercolor.)

Crap, I might've been thinking of Nidoran. :/

And that dragon is awesome! You painted that?!

Ah, I can see where you got mixed up. *sigh of relief that I'm original*

Thanks, and yes, I did paint it! I had a good teacher! I also painted a stormeh day.

Done in acrylic on canvas. Inspiration from nature, but 100% created from my mind.

That's great, man. How long did it take to do that?

The dragon took me about 45 minutes total, and the landscape took about two hours.

Thanks!

I like how you actually named that one "Stormeh Day".

Dang, my "High Expectations Mode" surely wasn't disappointed! You've got some nice talent/good teachers/probably both.

Say, have you named your game yet?

I have been brainstorming and I've come up with two so far.

First I came up with was 'Pinnacle'. No apparent reason, it just hit me, and I thought it sounded neat.
Second one is 'Guanxi'. It kind of sums up the game itself. Definition:

In traditional Chinese society, you would build up good guanxi by giving gifts to people, taking them to dinner, or doing them a favor, but you can also use up your guanxi by asking for a favour to be repaid.

Since the game is all about doing tasks for people, it sort of makes sense.

But I'm open for title suggestions!

So "guanxi" is kind of like reputation? That's what I draw from it. :/

Pretty much, yeah. For every task you complete for the person, you will gain XP.
For 'x' amount of XP, you will rank up. For each rank you go up, the tasks will get more respectable, and worth more XP.
So in a way, it is definitely reputation.

Anyways, here's a painting of some sand and waves, commonly known as a beach. Follow this link to paradise~

I like the simplicity of your art. It's simple and enjoyable to look at for a passerby.

You should draw pixel cartoons or little stories. they would be awesome to read!
