Yoo-hoo, runnin’ crew!

Keeping in line with my promise, here are some Final Fantasy inspired sprites I did this morning of the Ronin Dojo boys, in magi attire.

I’m just starting to mess around with pixel art, and it’s requiring a lot more thought that I anticipated, especially at this small scale. Figuring out how to handle diagonal lines is an art unto itself. . . there is a surprising range of style you can impose on just a few square pixels of canvas. A Ronin Dojo video game is something we’ve always joked about doing as part of our meta campaign to build up a fanbase, but I dunno, I think we’ve taken a renewed interest in it. SCUMM engine graphical adventure to the mall to find the Red Dwarf boxset, anyone?

I did some doodles tonight, but nothing worth posting, since I did them idly while recording with our fantastic voice acting team of Tim Martin and Emily Tarver for the next Ronin Dojo episode (due out Monday). Seriously, those two rock. Emily especially, because she helped come up with my next new favorite line. Tune in after the weekend to guess which one it is. And if you’re in NYC and troll the improv comedy scene, keep your eyes peeled for them. They’re always popping up and being hilarious.

Ok, the fatigue of talking about time travel for two hours is setting in. END OF ENTRY.
