A digital illustration of a young nun in a black nun attire holding her hands together

Simplicity isn’t a limitation—it’s a strategy.

Most anime art leans into detailed backgrounds while keeping characters clean and minimal, often just base colors without heavy shading. The contrast makes everything pop.

Another OC coming. Sketch done.
I love layer based approach, it's good for game assets creation.

Appreciate this a lot 🙏

Yeah, the red is the active/hover state—glad that came across clearly.

And that’s a really good point about the popup touching the screen edge… I didn’t think much about it, but now I can’t unsee it 😅 I’ll definitely adjust the spacing.

Thanks for the solid feedback!

Main menu WIP for SWeeT BLooD 🩸

Planning to add, fog shader + reactive character expressions.

Need brutally honest feedback:
Layout ok?
Text-only buttons too plain?
Font + red “BLooD” vibe working?
Any extra advice?

Gamedev philosophy of the week:

A fully rendered monster is limited by your design.
An unseen presence is limitless because the player finishes it for you.

And their imagination
is far more cruel than you’ll ever be.

Step 1: Sketching the character

Step 2: Filling the character with base colors

Step 3: Finishing the character with highlights and shadows

My simple 3-step process for drawing characters:

1. Outline
2. Base Colors
3. Highlights & Shadows

Simple workflow, solid results.

Digital illustration of lips of a woman.

Really spent a quality time on her lips 👄😉.

Recently I got invited to join the new Godot UX team. When I have time I will be helping testing editor PRs and make Godot more usable for everyone.

What are some of the most annoying things about Godot UI/UX that you think need attention?

Maybe a dialogue system is needed. Currently we have to use add-ons like dialogic for this purpose. Will be super useful for the development of visual novels or interactive fictions.
Ren'py provides easier dialogue management. But I personally like godot, so a build in system can be useful.

Stylized illustration of a poised bartender woman with short orange hair, dressed in a white shirt, black vest, and tie. She is polishing a glass with a cloth, giving a calm and confident big-sister vibe.

Using krita to draw my illustrations

Character design progress for Claire, the bartender.
Finally happy with how she turned out. #ocart #characterdesign #comicart
Now comes the fun part… putting her into the game. 🍸

Before-and-after illustration showing a female bartender polishing a glass, first as a black-and-white sketch and then as a fully colored character with short orange hair and a vest.

Trying out a comic-style thick outline for my visual novel characters. 👀 #oc #characterdesign #ocart
Still experimenting, but I think this direction fits the game better. 😼

Some recent character studies.
I’m both a designer and an artist, so visual tone matters deeply in my projects.
These pieces are studies inspired by other artists’ works, used for practice and stylistic exploration.
Working on refining my character language and emotional presence.

Game designer & artist 🎨.

Currently building a 2D visual novel series focused on gameplay-driven storytelling.

I care about systems as much as narrative.
Mood as much as mechanics.
