Stuff. And things.

18 05 2011

So I’ve been doing a lot of stuff recently.

I’ve still been pouring out pixel art, by request.  I’ve been making a bit of improvement.

You might recognize this fellow from somewhere.   I was requested to draw the nyan cat in a slightly different style, so I did.  It’s lacking legs, however, because I thought that looked hilarious.

AM I ANDY WARHOL?

This was particularly difficult to draw, and I’m not very pleased with how it came out.  I could have done a much better job, I feel.  The shading for the top bit is off, and it doesn’t look very cylinderish.

It’s a trumpet.  I actually like this one, although the shading on the bell is wrong.  It’s one of my better creations.

I originally thought this would be incredibly difficult to make, but as I made it turned out to be a simpler process than it thought.  I just had to differentiate layers by shade of yellow, so I would know what I needed to add, and where to add them.

Yoshi egg.  My client was quite pleased with how this came out.

Client.  Oh man, that makes me sound professional.  Like that would ever happen *snort*

But yeah, that’s all the pixel art that I have on my Mac at the moment.  The rest are on my PC, so I don’t want to really bother going to my email and pulling em out.  I’ve been doing a lot of pixel art, honest.

Yeah, but I have done other stuff.  For example, I’ve started playing Terraria with a friend of mine.  We stayed up quite late, killing worms and slimes, and rushing to break pots for bombs and potions.  We managed to do quite a bit before we had a cease and desist.

For those of you who don’t know, Terraria is similar to what a 2D minecraft would be, but better.  There is a village system that revolves around NPCs spawning in houses that you built, there are boss monsters that spawn, there are random night events that trigger that cause the moon to go blood red, and there are just a chock full of interesting items available.  So much to do in the game, and it’s pretty much 10 dollars.  Miniscule amount for a good video game.

I’ve also been watching films again.  Since this post has been dragging on for a good while, I’ll just make a short list of them, for your and my sake, since the bell is going to ring in a few minutes.

The Aviator

Donnie Darko

The Human Footprint

Single Father (not a film, but still good)

Glorious 39

Downfall

Batman: Under the Red Hood (Surprisingly good)

Speed Racer

So yeah.  I’ve been quite a busy lad, with all of this entertainment, art, and school work.
