Website update + Art Fight

My website is finished now for the most part. I still have plans to add an extensive archive for my art gallery, as well as a page dedicated to my characters and world-building. I am also thinking of setting up an "Art Blog" on this page, so I can put up any of my recent art and talk about the creative process behind them... Or maybe the blog itself could already be an art blog? I'll have to see. 🤔

For this year I'll be participating in Art Fight. I'm redesigning my characters and setting them up on there and so far I'm very satisfied how they've turned out. I wanted to make sure that their character, clothes and colours fit with the theme I'm going for for them.

For reference, this was their older designs from 2020 for Minokio and Treble. It's quite a big shift of both design and art style, while some of the core features are still there ! I got inspired for Treble's new design from both an lion-head rabbit I saw from my animal shelter. Minokio was not based off any rabbit breed, but I did just find out there is a "Harlequin" rabbit breed !

Before I sign off, I did work a bit on Wait for Daylight for anyone curious. It's mostly a few redesigns for Nio's sprites and a few new daydream sequence I'm adding. I want it more to resemble how daydreaming is like in real life that gets triggered through different negative emotions Nio is experiencing.

I have to admit, I am in bit of a love-hate relationship with this project. Everytime I open rpgmaker and look at the maps and sprites a part of me just wants to remake and restructure them. I mean, might as well just do it. 🤔
