Slowly getting better!

So yeah I played some games recently. Journey is of course a favorite of mine, I’ve drawn it plenty of times and even have a poster up on my wall. And more recently I played Gris.

Similar to Journey, Gris is less of a game and more of a cinematic experience. It’s a side scrolling platformer about grief with some incredible music and a beautiful world.

A friend suggested I try out something Art Nouveau and I not only thought of Kingdom Hearts, but also that I’m very bad at moderation and that I was going to do a lot on this.

This ended up being way more blue than I originally expected. I didn’t want to copy the Blue/White color scheme of Sora’s Dive so I tried mixing in some red, but ended up not liking it. While adjusting some of the blues I found I liked the brightest color I had added and decided to keep it.

It was already an adventure trying to draw me in my own style, which took several tries to get something I was even remotely satisfied with. And since part of the original suggestion was to make a piece with my moths, I decided to incorporate my own character as well as other from games I’ve played the impacted me in some way.

So I’ve got Journey, really just a beautiful game and one that I think about all the time. Persona 5, with Morgana taking a nap (cause of course, he needs sleep). Transistor ended up right in the middle, a game I still get emotional over years later. Ori and the Blind Forest, anybody who knows me knows that I love this game and consider it one of the best games out there. Bottom slot goes to my moth Wynton.

All the games are some of the only games I would rate a 10/10. There’s one more, but I wasn’t about to draw more people, I already made a basic design for a keyblade (inverted music note, Wynton’s color scheme, snowflake charm since I like ice).
