I'm a beginner digital artist and today our "teacher" challenged us to draw a slime in pixel art.

I am pleased with this first effort and yes I've been told he looks like an onion lol (I wasn't sure what flair to use).

WIP for upcoming project

Going from drawing static pictures to spending a full hour doing one mediocre animation. I have acquired a newfound respect for animators today 😭. This is Cynthia, a side character from a project I’ve started working on. Hope you like it and I’m always up for critique (starting off with the fact I forgot to finish animating the hair strands 👀)

First attempt at making a smooth weapon sprite animation. I'm using this for an upcoming Doom mod I'm making. I tried to make it look cartoony as much as possible, and I am slightly please with the results.

Looking for suggestion to improve

Hi everyone, I am (re)working on a serie of parallax set nowadays but I feel something is missing on this one. It has only 6 layers (so far) and I am looking to add some fluff to it.

More pixel art for my graphic novel styled game set in Regional Australia. I think this might be my best work so far.
