Anonymous sent: Which video games or pixel artists have most influenced your development as a pixel artist?

What inspired me were games I owned as a kid on my Super Nintendo.

What influenced me are moreso the games I played on Game Boy Advance. Around the time the GBA was out, people had the ability to rip sprites and place them on a big sprite sheet. I would browse sprite websites for hours. eventually, I used them for reference and started making sprites myself (2004, age 14). Most of sprites I featured in my book are from games that influenced me.

Around 2004-2008 I was influenced by my close friends and Ahruon (Daniel Oliver) between ‘08 and ‘12 I kinda quit pixel art. Then in ‘13, artists like Snakepixel and Konjak really were a big inspiration.

In general though, i’ve always been more influenced by Japanese pixel art. since most of the games I looked up to were JPN

Anonymous sent: Question! What do you do when you have to work with black? Like for instance, black hair or clothes. Do you use pure black?

This may sound obvious, but you always add a slight hint of hue.
Hues of Blacks are like greys, you can go warm or cold.

Now the thing with black is you can choose a high contrast, or little depending on the surface you’re painting.
Hair = I always make it either blue, purple or the darkest shade of brown
clothing = low contrast unless it’s meant to be shiny, then go for high


I’d actually draw something like a mini tutorial but i’m trying to finish some work x_x

One of my fav animations for Wargroove. I got creative control over this attack so I was pretty excited! SO … I based it on the “540 kick” in Taekwondo martial arts + Hwoarang’s rage drive from Tekken7.

 SamuriFerret added the satisfying shine at the end

Here’s just a few animations I did for Caesar from Wargroove. Good. Boy. !
I’ll post more animations on Twitter
