Skulduggery Pleasant - 256fes Challenge
Every time I do this challenge I realize 256 triangles (for reference the last proper character I did had over 6k) is not enough, and yet I somehow end up doing this challenge about every two years any way. This time I couldn't even cheat with a skirt bc I was using a pre-established character RIP-
Another retro game mock-up bc... I still really want an SP game. This time I put in more of an effort to match the vibes of the early SP books instead of going down the chibi route like I did with Nefarian.
Done in Blender and Clip Studio Paint. The Skul for the icon is from the OG book 2 cover. The fire animation was done in Pixel Composer. And used the mosaic filter to pixelate the texture and make it more retro looking.
You may wonder why I did this, eventho I don't really like Skul as a character. Well, I got really inspired by this artwork by Lyadrielle, lost motivation half-way in, then finished it due to the sunken-cost fallacy and here we are.
