As requested by some, this post will be a dedicated place to view the pixel art illustrations I made for Game Jolt (with a couple bonuses included).

Each of them were first created in GIMP, and then I vectored each value as a separate layer in Inkscape.

Converting each illustration to a vector format was required in order for the coloured pixels to change according to a user's chosen theme. Vector formats can also be a lot smaller in file size if properly optimized.

To prevent seams from appearing between the vectored pixels, I would extend shapes on lower layers so that shapes on higher layers would overlap. This could be a somewhat mind-numbing process, so I had to work hard to stay focused!

Here's what each layer looked like as they stacked higher, finally reaching the clean finished vector:

@Hapu actually created a tool that helped me test and make sure the finished vectors worked properly with user-chosen themes. Thanks again, buddy!

For a very quick look (SEIZURE WARNING, and loud music!) at the entire process, see the video here.

Fabric / wallpaper surface pattern design for a challenge on Spoonflower themed around painterly florals.

Unfortunately, I had to rush this one at the last minute, but a customer already bought a swatch, so I guess I didn't do too badly! LOL

I made this salad for MumBlargh, and she wants me to share it with you all.

Hmm... That's a lot of mouths to feed. I might have to make a bigger salad, huh.

Hey everyone, hope you're all doing well today.

Here's the finished illustration I made for my friend who had the stroke recently. She's doing great, by the way—recovering well and making good progress with physical therapy.
