As an "artist" I've always had 2 main goals. 1) to be good; and 2) to have my own semi distinct style. I haven't really reached either of those goals but I think I'm gonna try and work harder on developing my own personal style.

Day 27 of rpgdan's story a day Challenge. 

 There is a world where art comes to life; a handful of gifted artists have the ability to draw, paint, sculpt, etc. something and it will spring to life. Not as a living sentient being but more like a robot. A young artist tries their whole life to become one of the few that possess this ability. They become a great artist but never having any piece of art come alive. Frustrated the artist draws a fantastical landscape with the outline of a blank character and stares at hoping they will see something to clue them in on how this ability works. When nothing happens the artist sweeps everything off of their desk in frustration. The artist stands up and goes to walk away. Not paying attention the artist steps on the landscape drawing and falls headfirst downward. After quickly reorienting themself the artist realizes they are inside the landscape drawing. Off in the distance the artist hears the clamoring of people and remembers they drew a village of to the side of the drawing. The artist gets up and decides to go investigate the world that they created. 

 Sometimes I like to use gender neutral pronouns when writing these because I literally think of these stories on the spot so I don't really know anything about the character. I don't know if they are a she, he or they or whatever. Is themself the correct gender neutral word?  I assume Tumblr knows.

Here’s a little cyclops dude inspired by j-robotson's cyclops character from the game Runner! My character of choice! I’m using it as the inspiration for day 19 of rpgdan’s story a day Challenge. A young cyclops sets off on his journey to prove his worth to his clan. He wanders the world in search of tough looking adventures to fight and teams up with other monsters to defeat them. More often then not he is defeated, and even when he is victorious the same heroes just wind up coming back a few minutes later. He does not give up hope however, this cyclops is determined to prove himself to his clan and the monster community in general. Be sets off to find a sorcerer who can make him human temporarily and devises a plan to stop all good hearted adventures for good. With the help of many monsters he sets his plan into action and attempts to change the world as it is known forever.

So when I started this challenge I told myself I would give myself at least 1 break day. So that's today I guess! But here's probably the first piece of pixel art I ever did a few years before I decided to take it on as a serious hobby. I feel like I'm almost worse now... So no day 17 of rpgdan's story a day Challenge. Although that up top is technically a story. It would make a terrible rpg though...

Decided to do a quick low poly render of grafxkid‘s character Samson! His version is cuter haha. So my story will be inspired by this little guy.

After an old magician passes away, his black cat familiar Samson is left alone and kicked out of his master’s home. Unbeknownst to anyone else, the wizard did not die naturally.

Story #12

I was doing Unity tutorials tonight so I didn't have time to make art but I'll put a a story idea real quick before I pass out. Day #12 of rpgdan's story a day Challenge. A man wakes up after a long night a drinking. He only recalls smalls parts of the night before but he has a business card in his back pocket with a note that says "very important, go tomorrow" in his own handwriting. When he arrives at the address on the card he is jumped and gets knocked out. He wakes again and finds himself in what appears to be a small laboratory. He goes to the window and peers out, only to be greets by millions of white dots against a dark background. He realizes he must be on a spaceship and begins to look for clues as to why and if anyone else is with him.

man, I should stick to tutorials for a while.

Anyway, my brain is tired. but here’s story 11 for rpgdan‘s story a day challenge.

A kid spends all of his time in his room reading. Hoping that one day his books will actually transport him to another world. It never happens and he eventually grows up and gives up on the idea. As an adult he becomes a writer of the types of fantasy books he grew up reading. He achieves mild success and gets to meet a few of his favorite authors. They take him to a library and lead him to a secret room. In the room they show him that books actually can be used as portals to the worlds in the stories and he begins on the journey that he always dreamed of as a child.

I’ll probably try some character modelling next, maybe some textures. or maybe just make my mountain scape cooler.

I’m dumb.

So yeah, I forgot to do the story yesterday, so this morning I’m gonna put an addition to my last story sans pixel art and do another story tonight.

Story #7 of rpgdan‘s story a day challenge.

Our brave adventurer from Story #6 was actually hired by a king to go off and find a lost treasure. When the treasure hunter does not return the king gets angry and sends his royal guard to investigate, with no sign of the adventurer the king brands him a traitor and puts a large bounty on his head. Nefarious bounty hunters begin to search the ruins the adventurer was supposed to be exploring for any clues as to his whereabouts. And it only is a matter of time before one of these dark hearted individuals discovers the portal to the peaceful alien world.
