Description Here's oNE other piece of pixel-y Owlboy art while I'm still on a kick for it :,D Bit of a minor spoiler for one of the characters, but his other design was too cute to not draw, and it doesn't make too much sense out of context anyways ;D

I'd wanted to make a sorta '3d coin/pin' thing for a while actually. Kinda like the collectible keychains in Kirby Triple Deluxe or some other virtual toy like that.


You can check out static versions for both sides on the tumblr version of this post piranhartist.tumblr.com/post/1… , as well as a lil speedpaint I did as I was working on it here: youtu.be/Azf5fCTjcO0
I realized after the fact it probs would've been good to like- record my interface for all the lil layer effects I did to get the pixel art working, but this tutorial here is the basic process I'm working from if you need a point of reference :> danfessler.com/blog/hd-index-p…

I love how the textures of the coin twitch slightly, looks like something straight out of a PS1 game.

Twig looks excellent on both sides. The colors are well-executed.

Haha thanks! That's pretty much an unintentional effect of preserving the sharpness of the spritework itself when animating around in 3d :,P

OOOOOOHHHHH I LOVE THE COIN/BADGE FLIPPING ANIMATION!! THAT'S AWESOOOOOME!! Again, as usual, just amazing, amazing work that's just so gosh-darn lovable and cute and impossible to resist! (((o(*゚▽゚*)o)))♡

Perhaps it's in his design, with fur/hair and tufts on the side of his face, but Twig, to me, looks like a cat spider creature. XD Something abiut Twig just reminds me of a cat when I look at him! Perhaps it's the Cheshire grin, the tufts on the sides of his cheeks, the appendages on the top of his head, the fact that he looks furry? Not too sure, but there is something there.... >w<

Thanks so much dude! :,D

Also he is definitely 'part' spider, but the cat aspect I never really thought of and that's a cute sort of theory to picture! . He comes from a really reALLY cold region in the game so I mostly just imagined he was nice n' bundled up warm. >:,P

You're very welcome, dude! (๑╹ω╹๑ )

And aaahhh, I see! He's definitely spider, yes, from him being able to shoot webs and the multiple limbs, and with all that hair on him, I also share your thought of him just being so bundled up and warm just snoozing the cold away~ (*´ω`*)

AhhhHHhh thank you! :,D And I actually had another friend comment the same sorta thing! x,D I love the sorta 3d-pixelated aesthetic like you can get with that or 3d DS games, so I'm glad that sorta look was able to come across >:,)

hECKIE YESSIE MY DUDE

I did up a piece of Alphonse a week or so back in pixel-y style too >:,D I was in loVE with the game from start to finish, and even though I've been jumping around a bunch of other different games while still on my spring break, that one's been sitting with me when I unearthed it from my steam library to play (it was gifted from my wishlist on my birthdAY AND HERE I AM 3 MONTHS LATER)
and seriously tempting me into jus- straight up replaying it right away, which I don't end up doing very often ;;v;;

I duNNO WHERE MY MOTIVATION'S GONNA THROW ME NEXT BUT IF IT STICKS I SUPER WANNA DRAW EITHER OF EM AT LEAST ONCE OR TWICE MORE IN MY NON-PIXELY STYLE OR SOMETHING

Also I know m' already watching you from at some point a while back, but I peaked at your art tumblr recogNIZE SOME OF YOUR OWLBOY STUFF FROM WHEN I WAS LOOKING UP REFERENCES AND REMEMBERING HOW MUCH I LOVED THE EXPRESSIONS ON IT? ;__; Pretty sure it was this piece riceygales.tumblr.com/post/155… suuUUPER super cute stuff dude <3

gOOD LORD YES IT IS. I eventually just had to start taking bunches of screenshots as I played cause I was in love over the visuals to absolute heck ;A; (I even have some animated desktop backgrounds for it atm cause they're just excessively peaceful to look at ;v; )

It's suPER hard for me to get sucked into something to the point that I'd do constant art for it for a long while, but it's deFINITELY HAPPENED BEFORE SO I CAN COMPLETELY RELATE HAHA
