I think i'm figuring out skin tones finally! Can I call myself an artist now?

My imposter syndrome: No you are a fraud.

me: yes you are right sorry for getting ahead of myself 😭

Been working on my process... maybe improved that today?

line work
low contrast values (BIG SHAPES)
high contrast values
erase/paint linework into painting

big strokes, dw about painting inside the lines, after making a new shape add a gradient to it

Updated the background!

It now uses a multimesh, this saves the cost of scrolling a giant texture, and also allows me to animate the tiles individually, like the blinking here!

It changes color when using the eraser, and also has a dark mode!

i think this is enough study i need to get back to coding

I like this little character design I came up with.

I do have ideas for games though that I want to get to eventually. When you're doing more an app than a game you spend a lot more time coding than doing art, and i'd like to get my teeth into a more art focused project.

I'm not 100% sure tbh, i started messing around in godot and wanted to make a "game" but didnt really know what to make, so i started this as just a quick project for practice, but now it's been going on for a year and a half haha. I've learned a lot though it's been a lot of fun

the best thing about learning to code is that it opens so many options to you as an artist. The worst part is while i'm coding i'm constantly thinking "I need to be painting I need to be painting" haha

working on backgrounds today for the godot paint program~

the dialogue finally has a character attached!

I'm going to come back and add different animations and stuff for each character but for now I'm going to move on to more functionality while I continue to work on the characters design!

Think I might be happy with this design and style for now! Moving on to her outfit + full body next!

trying to come up with a tutorial character to teach you how to use the software. This is the first one I came up with.

Not sure if this is the exact flavor of anime that I want. Will probably keep messing around until I find something that really resonates

some icons i'm working on for menus in the paint program. I'm not much of a pixel artist but i'm trying haha

I'm not sure where this thing is going but it's interesting

In the background of a set of windows a few lines of code read: extends Node @onready var player = get_parent() @onready var attack_area: Area3D = player.get_node("Att

Welp, Godot has officially passed a new milestone: GDscript, in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, officially debuted in an anime. The new anime Needy Girl Overdose shows a few lines of very clear GDscript on a computer monitor in the first episode around the 9 minute mark. (Credit: u/Quincyillpie)

i'm not sure where this painting is going but i'm having fun with it

social media in general is definitely dead. The only way to have a decent experience online is to join a bunch of small communities and actively search for things instead of letting the algorithm give you what it wants

this was very me last week

When you separate your layers based on lights and shadows it helps keep everything organized and also lets you see how an image is constructed

enjoying this study. Kind of taking it slow and methodical

Doing some testing before the next test release! Nothing has broken yet!

#GodotEngine

That's a good idea actually, I think I will need to weigh more options on what the demo will look like later on. Thanks for the input I appreciate it!

My plan is to have a free demo and a paid version!

The idea i'm playing with is to have the demo have limited layers, like 3 or something? I want this thing to be affordable though so I don't plan on the full version being more than a few dollars.

We're still a few months from the demo though

how did i miss this one this one is amazing!

In my program you can create multicolored custom brushes right in the program while you work! No importing pngs! This samus was painted with a whole bunch of metroid brushes like this!

Finally finished it! Samus aran made in my custom #godot paint program!

painted completely with metroid brushes! (see below)
