lineart so far :]


btw. Metaru, that's a must-have on a t-shirt!

I love the cat and the mini dude - but, i don't understand that background...? maybe it's just me. :)

and the ant hitting back is great but I find something missing on the ant, dunno what...?

edit - work so far :P

Wow, it's been far too long since I've participated in any activities here at Pixel Joint. To keep things short, I've been busy with work and a pixeled flash game project.

Anyways, here is my W.I.P.

"Crab people.... Crab people.... Look like crab, talk like people."


And don't tell me crab people aren't real, I know better than to buy into foolish propaganda!
