Pixel Art #62: The Humans
I hadn’t done any art since May, so it was time to create a new addition! It’s typical of me to try to create “sets” of three pieces so any art that I put on my Instagram fits to their standard grid. I had previously posted a picture from Commander Keen and then a pictureContinue reading “Pixel Art #62: The Humans”
Pixel Art #60 & 61: Ness & Mario
The markers came out again the other day. This time, in order to keep my Instagram looking symmetrical, I decided to theme my subjects around peace signs. Ness (from Earthbound) and Mario (from Super Mario World) fit the bill splendidly! Due to my slightly poor selection of marker colors, Ness got a little bit ofContinue reading “Pixel Art #60 & 61: Ness & Mario”
Pixel Art #59: Secret of Evermore
While I never finished Secret of Evermore, I’ve always been intrigued by the vivid fantasy worlds that our main character visited and how each new location changed our canine companion. Dinosaurs and prehistoric plants filled the lands of the game’s first main area causing our dog to take the form of a hulking wolf, matchingContinue reading “Pixel Art #59: Secret of Evermore”
Pixel Art #53-58: April-December 2024
My time for art this year has dwindled slightly, but I’ve managed to squeeze in a few projects here and there. Posting them to WordPress, however, has not been a thing. So, here’s everything I’ve done since April (with maybe a few more coming this month)! See if you can guess the reason for choosingContinue reading “Pixel Art #53-58: April-December 2024”
Pixel Art #52: Ninja Turtles (NES)
The original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1989) video game for the Nintendo Entertainment System was known for its brutal difficulty and a deceptive jump where you can just walk over it. I owned this game as a kid and had nightmares just trying to get through the infamous water stage. While I’ve never beaten itContinue reading “Pixel Art #52: Ninja Turtles (NES)”
Pixel Art #47: The Legend of the Mystical Ninja
An army of ninja cats, two-player cooperative action, and a colorful array of in-game mini-games including a playable demo of Gradius 3? The Legend of the Mystical Ninja holds a fond place in my memory as an ever enjoyable experience despite its ramped up difficulty later in the adventure. I remember playing this with myContinue reading “Pixel Art #47: The Legend of the Mystical Ninja”
Perler Art #45: Lakitu
Lakitu has been terrorizing the famous plumber duo since his first appearance in Super Mario Bros in 1985 where he would chuck spinies at his victims below from the comforts of his portable cloud. In future games he would act as an official in Super Mario Kart, and he was the man behind the cameraContinue reading “Perler Art #45: Lakitu”
Marker Art #44: Lemmings
My first experience with Lemmings was at a friend’s house (yes, the same friend where I accidentally borrowed Chrono Trigger), and it was something that held our attention far more than it should have. I loved the challenge of trying to manage all these brainless creatures as they marched carelessly toward their goal (or impendingContinue reading “Marker Art #44: Lemmings”

Marker Art #42: The Phantom Train
Halloween is almost here so I decided to break out the markers again to create some spooky pixel art! My selection this time is a scene from Final Fantasy 6 (SNES 1994) where Sabin and Cyan accidentally board a train that takes its passengers to the land of the dead. Their only chance of survivalContinue reading “Marker Art #42: The Phantom Train”
