[acoustic steeple]

Oh trye

[loud dew]

[timid sigil]

Artwork by @acoustic steeple

[stray turret]

i never would have thought of that it looks amazing

thumbnails hard

[edgy nexus]

I like it

[acoustic steeple]

took 3 tries but it ended up pretty neat :3

[fallow veldt]

realizing i picked up a tick in the garden as I went to post this gif

its fine i got it off

[versed grove]

The bobbing heads and tail! So good.

[fallow veldt]

I wanted some kind of tail movement but the sprite is already as wide as the 32x32 box will allow so I had to improv

[versed grove]

It works!

[fallow veldt]

hmmm may pull the highest point of the spine down to simulate a full body tilt

[fallow veldt]

i like their hair

New npc design sketches

Solstice and Eclipse, high mages of the Sun and Moon

Eclipse takes her job very seriously, but Solstice...
Not so much

My thought is that you meet Eclipse first, and go "damn these mages are for real they must mean business"

And then Solstice crashes the party

[wheat forge]

Leafy Seadragons will require a minimum Fishing level of 4 to be caught in my next expansion.

[iron tusk]

My first thought was that these were characters from pokemon sun and moon

[whole solstice]

fair! Hopefully some stardew style portraits make them feel more at home

(Very much still wips lmao)

[iron tusk]

I should clarify, my initial impression was based solely off of the lower 3rd of the portraits Discord showed me 😅

This is basically what I was working with

[whole solstice]

i totally see it

[iron tusk]

Especially the left side looks like it could be the lady with purple hair (Wicke?)

[whole solstice]

Yknow what shes a diva ill take it

[whole solstice]

Oh I might be obsessed with her actually

[sullen tartan]

Oh my gosh

The book

[errant spruce]

omg the swirl

[whole solstice]

Great news my boy got his melanin back from his sketch ‼️

[sullen tartan]

Oh my goshy gosh/pos

[whole solstice]

He may or may not be a bit of a flirt but cmon what do you expect from a man who wont button up his shirt

[pearl nova]

He's gonna catch a cold

[whole solstice]

My boy is a sun mage, he'll conjure heat long before he buttons up

[errant spruce]

the surgery was a success 🙂‍↕️

[versed grove]

I love them both!! The book ones.. right is "don't disturb me when I'm reading" and left is "you caught me reading something a bit hot"

Anyway I've been struggling with Winter Star outfit, I have 2 variants that could alternatively have skirt part exchanged. The left is the southern cross, but might not be readable for those not so familiar with it, the right is a more in-world option. Any feedback?

[fallow veldt]

I think the yoba symbol on the right is definitely more readable, and also, I like that it carries the yellow shade from her hair ornament all the way through her design! Feels like the color balance is just right

[whole solstice]

Agree, big fan of the right!!

Wish I could do spritework like that, im dreading making spritesheets so much

[sullen tartan]

I like the right alot too!

[versed grove]

Thanks! I'll keep working on that one 🙂
