I Made A Font! During A Project The Other Year I Decided I Hated Every Free ‘Ancient Greek’ Style

A mug design as my grandmother's christmas present! Based on Greek iconography. My first go at using Krita, which is an ace opensource painting program like wow (although I used it in conjunction with Gimp for some adjustments)

Inktober dump: the requests.

Prompts beneath the cut:

Bonus: “Sofa Hunting”

1. @lenleg as a dragon with @mrsmarymorstan , plus @little-smartass playing a harp? Jess doesn’t play the harp no-one knows why Anna requested that

2. “Flying Tigers”

3. a border collie picture, requested by @tpoross

4. “volcano people”

5. “pig latin”

6. ”blood moon”

7. “If the world were somehow enslaved by hyper intelligent bees (look the same as regular bumble bees). What would it look like? A scene from everyday life.“

8. “a potato, singular, with a moustache“ : @lenleg

9. “The alpacalypse ..(alpaca related end of the world)“

10. “Merpeople swimming with jellyfish“

basic environment + ui concepts

the character designs are drawn over sketches by Jess

Aberford poster! wow 50s ads sure had ridiculous blocks of text. Who even read that stuff I mean really.

Pleeease sketchypandagames let them have ridiculously exaggerated silhouettes a la tf2 or disney infinity. Of this I beg. I really want to see a teenie tiny Peggy, Betty is the Most Fab, Doris is a liiittle old-fashioned and has long hair (!no one did that in the 50s!!?!) and Sylvia is mildly inspired by my Nanna who is over 6foot tall (but personality wise could not be more different).

I reckon Sylvia would be used to talking down to everyone bc it would a) be something she picked up as an academic, in the common way elitist intellectuals do, and b) be something she picked up as a woman in a male dominated field from men who didn’t know better. Betty on the other hand would be used to dealing with people who expect her to be inferior, as a woman and being black, which would make for an interesting dynamic between the science gals. Betty would be more practically experienced and Sylvia would be more theoretically knowledgeable.

sketchbook time! I tried drawing Ross's hand... eh I'm gonna have to try again sometime.

The game demo is now live on www.eireniart.uk/fiscafe : here’s the trailer for that

[I’ve never used Premiere Pro before and I had to do it in a rush so dont judge my video editing skills too hard...]

The song is Tycho - A Walk
