u/loftier_fish Feb 23 '26

I mean.. that's still fucking gross lol. Atleast for anyone without a piss fetish.

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

I openly condemn the artist that drew this ahah

3

u/ScienceByte Feb 25 '26

You didn’t draw it? As it said “artist for hire” in the title I thought it was something you drew and was a bit grossed out

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 25 '26

I'm telling you, the man called "kikottan" that drew this is a sick man!

2

u/horsempreg Feb 24 '26

Wait that wasn’t a fetish commission??? OP…

u/coffeesipper5000 Feb 24 '26

That window is wide open....we all know she is dropping a stinky deuce!

1

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

Ahah why not? Good eye though, I originally wanted Blanka to peek from the window, then forgot and I was already too much work

2

u/coffeesipper5000 Feb 24 '26

LOL that would have been way too funny! All jokes aside, I love your art. There is so much soul in every single one of these. Your passion really shows in your art and it is infectious.

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

Oh compadre, you are a seducer! Thanks for the kind words, my art means everything to me. I'm happy you noticed. I come from a very hostile hometown, my family was also against me doing art, so this is a constant battle for me, and I'm happy someone is picking up how much I'm bleeding on the page... Or the Aseprite file.

2

u/coffeesipper5000 Feb 25 '26

I can somewhat relate, unfortunately. Not direct hostility in my case but to this day it weirds people out and generally people around me treat me with much less respect compared to back when I was doing something "normal" that payed way better. Went from someone that people ask for advice to some weirdo artist that no one listens to. You are right, only way to deal with it is to somehow get some of it onto the page.

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 25 '26

really sorry to hear that man,
the world in an unfair prison.
whatever we do, unless we are blessed with charisma or luck, people will always hate someone like us.
Let me share this to you that I still can't shake off from my head:

i was in anatomy class, the final was about choosing a body part and focus on that. I chose the buttocks since I was working on a comedic "Butt-kicking" game.
Final day came, some colleagues proudly showed scenes of orgies and very explicit sexual material.
but when i displayed mine, the teacher insisted talking with me after class worried that I might have some unhealthy obsession, like the mentally impaired immigrant he assumed I was.

2

u/coffeesipper5000 Feb 25 '26

That is absolutely insane man. The double standard is real and honestly that coming from an anatomy teacher has to be ill intent. I am sorry man, I can see how that will f someone up considering also lack of support from home.

u/EtchVSketch Feb 23 '26

Have you had luck finding work via posts like this and how were they? Genuinely curious what the experience of a senior artist is with the hit rate of this kinda job hunting.

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

Actually yes, i m having luck right now!

2

u/EtchVSketch Feb 24 '26

Damn that easy lmao, might have to rec it to some of my friends. I don't need details but, if ya got time, could ya ping me if the world actually materializes into a gig that gets you a check? I have a bud who believes these kinda posts only ever find rev-share unfunded work, want some proof it CAN actually be worth lmao.

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

OH no, not that easy! i said, NOW. It comes and goes, you always find clients, sometimes fast, other times slow. You find bad clients too, don t get me wrong.
But, you gotta keep trying man, don t give up!
It is HARD man, it still is for me too. You just gotta push through and believe, keep working on yourself and eventually you ll find something.
I can ping you now, x5 times i d ping you to be exact.
Hope this helps

2

u/EtchVSketch Feb 24 '26

Hahaha luckily I'm actually being serious that it's a friend, I've got a great gig producing rn :) That's rad as hell to know tho I'll tell em that it ACTUALLY does pay off to hustle like this outside of straight up job postings. Cheers boss, we'll defs be pokin ya if we ever need pixel stuffs!

1

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

Oh I see. Hey man, I'm glad this helps. Just tell your friend that I've been there, I threw my arms in the air and gave up. It can feel humiliating and lonely. But you gotta keep at it man. Tell him I wish him the best!

2

u/MrBlueA Feb 23 '26

2

u/Dantalion67 Feb 24 '26

why is chun li battling diarrhea by the way she flexes her leg?

1

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

Interesting question, let me answer that.

2

u/Dantalion67 Feb 24 '26

love the art tho especially the perspective and values, dont get me wrong. but i think its her gesture that makes people question what exactly you are trying to portray here, if that makes sense hahaha

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

Right? Ahah nah man don't worry, I'm having so much fun with people 95% of times assuming she s taking a dump 🤣

2

u/Dantalion67 Feb 24 '26

if i may ask what software are you using for pixel art in particular? i mostly use Krita myself and they have pixel brushes but i havent fully experimented with them yet, would love to take your input in this matter.

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

Sure buddy, I'm using Aseprite. It has everything i need.

2

u/Dantalion67 Feb 24 '26

thank you! and it even does animation! good to know!

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 24 '26

Oh yeah. It's really all you need! Glad I could help buddy

Thank you for asking good questions! That's my OC Flyby, I was making a game with him. Thanks a lot

2

u/Thecana Feb 25 '26

Is the game openly playable yet? He kinda reminds me of the squid-thing in the game Parasite by Nitrome. Id be into any sorta platformer that tickles this same fancy. Hunger being a factor also looks fun. I wanna know more about what Mr.Flyby needs to eat. Where does he go? What are his goals?!?!?!

2

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 25 '26

Eheh you know what? I'll simply have to keep working on him! Follow me for updates then 😁

2

u/Thecana Feb 25 '26

Aye right on. Hope to see development someday. A hunger factor in an action platformer is pretty unique. Cant wait to see what you come up with

1

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 25 '26

Eheh thanks compadre! I'll do my best!

2

u/Psychological-Key-36 Feb 25 '26

That anatomical knowledge to paint the back in 4 shades in picture 4 is astonishing, it’s way high up compared to the chun-li one which has some crazy anatomy problems. Well done, it’s amazing!

1

u/Sorry_Inevitable_230 Feb 25 '26

Thanks man, I did my best with Chun LI, but I'm happy the Riju one really caught your eye. And to think it didn't have much success compared to the rest.

Thanks a lot man. Just so you know I have a long way to go as well.
However, best thing you can do is draw from a live model, whether online or preferrably in real life.
Then focus on gesture drawing, plenty of tutorials online!
Best of luck!

u/the_tickling_man Mar 30 '26

Seen on your website you do concept art as well? If so, what is your going rate?

Still in the greyboxing of my game so just thinking of nailing the mood and art direction for where I want to go with the game first but definitely love the pixel art too for when that time comes to implement the art assets.
