Pixel art, drawings, and other stuff. But mainly pixel art and drawings.

Tablet GET!

Hi.

Got the pressure sensitivity on my tablet to work. To celebrate, an old doodle of mine :P

This was literally the first thing I did when I got the tablet working on XP, three months ago. Reference is the Alien Xenomorphs.

It kinda sucks because I didn’t have any experience with the tablet, so I stuck to a small document size on Photoshop. The aliasing effect is just too evident.

iWant

Been doing some freelance stuff related to mobile devices. It is an interesting and innovative project related to mobile learning in corporative settings. But it kind of sucks when you can’t even test it properly :( As such (and also because I’m a sucker for technology) I’ve been looking for a cheap iPhone or iPod Touch (I know, the terms “iPhone” and “cheap” don’t go well together…)

Je veux aller à la plage

Dunno why, but in the past few days I’ve been entertaining the idea that I want to go to the beach when it’s rainy.

Mind you, its not the sand & sea stuff that I’d like. I’d like to take a walk and everything, however, I’d like my beach close to the sea but not too close ;)

I’d love to sit comfortably on a couch, falling asleep with a nice book in hand, while a breeze gently swept the windows (ok, that was kinda poetic, but actually I would lock the windows so they don’t make that damned screeching sound). The silence would be perfect for crashing on a sofa and catching up on your sleep, maybe reading a fine book while sipping a good wine, or just enjoying a good company.

Also, fish & fries hmm : d

Did this last night. Had to give myself a “prize” after dicking around too much on a freelance work I’m doing. (Any similarity to the salmon girl in the post below is mere coincidence.)

12 colors, 30×50.

Salmon considered harmful

Last Saturday was party time Oh yeah!

Good beverages, plenty of food and nice people all around.

I made some new friends and heard some amazing stories about deadly kitchen implements, harmful recipes and headless mutant cockroaches from hell.

All in all, a memorable event.

PS: Did you know that a cockroach can live up to 9 days with its head severed from its body? It’s true, a friend of mine heard on the intarnets ;)

Edit: CRAP!! IT’S TRUE!!! See the Cockroach FAQ page, created by prof. Joseph Kunkel, who is a cockroach specialist at the Dept. of Biology at Umass Amherst. Ctrl+f “head”

On time, every time

Commission for a friend. The meaning of this piece is actually twofold:

  1. It is for a friend of mine who is gonna launch an innovative postal package tracking service. It does not involve turtles. Well, not directly.
  2. It is also a homage to the Correios (the brazilian postal service), which most definitely does involve turtles, and is always trying to bring me my packages on time. Always trying.

Please… try harder!

Schroeder’s…box?

Made this by request for my friend RSAntunes. It was meant as a general purpose avatar, he’s now using it on his Twitter profile.

Reference is Schroeder [2] and classy vintage Corona Typewriters.

About Rockin’ Bots: Rockbot’s Rockbot

The office is officially opening auditions for the rad role of hero! Please, pardon all my absolutely awful alliterations :P

I’m trying to retain the “goody two-shoes” face as much as possible.

Reference is Iuri and Arismeire’s official art. The left one keeps the same colors as the drawing, while the second one is an alternate.

Dynamite, 1 2 3!

The evolution of the design of Dynamite bot. By the second iteration, he lost the horseface in favour or a machiavelic expression >) The third iteration is an alternate scenario, where he gained a few new tricks. Either the second or the third is probably gonna star a level in Rockbot.

More Rockbot art

New sprite for one of the bosses in Rockbot. He’s actually kind of an “extra”, because he’s not on the official boss/stage list.

Edit: Iuri said Rhino was fired some time ago… so welcome the new boss… elec thunder shock plug somehow electric-battery-themed boss :P

Rockbot: some boss sprites

Dumping some boss sprites I’ve been doing for Rockbot. They’re based on Iuri & Arismeire’s art, as seen in the gallery.
