Cyangmou, make a tumblr or something just for those sketchs with an infinite scrolling option, so we can go back and see how much progress you're getting out of this :O

thanks tim =)

never used tumblr before... how does it work? What's the cool thing about it?
Love all of the sprites, Spidergirl and Mimic are just epic =)

and a field test of the observations from the last days
"Because the beauty of the human body is that it hasn't a single muscle which doesn't serve its purpose; that there's not a line wasted; that every detail of it fits one idea, the idea of a man and the life of a man."

Tumblr is a blogging site. It's like a forum, but only one person posts to it, and posts are ordered from newest to oldest.

Since it's a networking site, you can follow other blogs. On your dashboard, which is pretty much the home page of tumblr, for every blog you follow, there will be a list of posts from every blog you follow, also ordered from newest to oldest.

It's more casual and more personal than deviantART. Use it if you want people to basically have a live news feed of what you do, and I don't recommend use it to archive things into a gallery like you would with dA or PJ.

Fair warning though, Tumblr works weirdly with pixel art, particularly small resolution GIF's and anything with a bpp of 8 or lower. Partially due to scaling issues a part of web design to keep posted images consistently sized.

Well, what Pix3M said. :I
There's probably way better for an art galery, but they have that stupid nice thing of being able to scroll endlessly through the blog, so I always thought it was a nice way to see an artist's progress (backward, which is more fun in my opinion).


EDIT:
Alright, I'm taking a short break from Rogue Puzzle and spending the weekend on the Fuck This Jam jam, which is about making a game in a genre you hate.
I hate racing games... So here's that:


(yes I'm aware my perspectives are TERRIBLE ahah)

4h30 working on art, I should probably call it a day, go to bed, and start coding tomorrow... ugh *stretches*
Good night Pixelation~

It's unfinished on one shoulder, but it gets covered over anyway :P.
