Pixel Noir

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a fun and safe halloween! Today I have a special piece of art to share with you!

Pixel Noir was recently successfully funded on Kickstarter, just like Beyond Mode 7 was last year! Len, Kunal, Tim, Max and the rest of the amazing SWD Tech crew have crafted an amazing paranormal noir thriller RPG that’s unique and fun and full of amazing art, music and stories!

Near the end of the campaign, Kunal called out to his artists friends to create some fan art for the forthcoming title, and I was all about contributing! I sort of took elements from the game, Max’s original designs for the main character and SWD Tech’s own logo to come up with my piece above! Kunal plans to feature it in an upcoming Kickstarter update, so I’ll definitely let people know on social media when it’s up and continue to help spread the word about this game as it nears completion!

The Original Art and a print may eventually go up for sale in my store, pending approval from SWD Tech!

Enjoy!

Kickstarter Sketch Card – Charged!

While much more effective at close range with his Saber, Zero’s got some ranged weaponry at his disposal, should he need to rescue X from Vile’s evil clutches again.

Kickstarter Sketch Card – Flame On

Here’s a fiery Bowser sketch card I did, I believe, for Scott Baer of the Lost at Home Podcast. Give it a listen, it’s hilarious and thought provoking, and you’ll get to hear some very unique guests on the show! Scott is also the second half of Green Mountain Graveyards which focuses on artistic photography of the many, old, and very interesting graveyards found throughout our home state of Vermont!

Kickstarter Sketch Card – Suit Upgrade

I sure hope Nintendo has a new Metroid game up their sleeves very soon…I’d love to see that franchise recover from the disaster that was Other M a few years ago.

Kickstarter Sketch Card – Eggcelent!

Another Yoshi, this time with a rather large Yoshi egg…how do they get so big so fast out of those things?

I was on Vacation this past week, thus the radio silence. I’ll have an exciting new post this Thursday and much more art soon!

Kickstarter Sketch Card -X3

A touch under-rated I think where the SNES Mega Man X series is concerned, 3 is a lot of fun, features some great music and should not be over looked (even if the boss explosion is WAY too long at almost 10 whole seconds!)

Kickstarter Sketch Card – Master of the Sword

Doesn’t matter which Zelda game it is, but the feeling associated with finally obtaining the Master Sword is always satisfaction!

Kickstarter Sketch Card – Line of Sight

Drawing someone…er…drawing back a bow string is a challenge, I definitely used some reference for this sketch card of Link!
