Long time no see - In other news, Pixel Art

Since the middle of my third year at university, I began neglecting this blog. It became somewhat of a chore, and since, I've simply been posting portfolio pieces and straight on my Artstation. Well, not recently, unfortunately I have little spare time these days to create games art, and even updates to my Artstation has been grinding to a halt.

Continuing, shortly after finishing my final year, for a week I was the environment artist for a little game-jam project. This was a pixel art twin-stick-style shooter. So I have some experience with this kind of art-direction, though this has been my first foray into animating it. Well... that's not entirely true, I've animated sprites for particle effects, but this is a whole new can of worms! Some basic character designs are done after quickly making some silhouettes (male and female base), a couple basic animations, and a brief try at an armour set.
