Very Cute. Done very well to create original characters in a time where there may not be too many left to be created. In a practical sense anyway.

My biggest fear is some arsehole is going to auto generate every conceivable variation of character possible and then claim copyright of anything of value created in the future using the same design. ____ AI. But we need a new framework for that I think. And fast. Its not valid to have a computer churn out potentially trillions of designs, along with backstories, personalities etc .... kind of a doomsday response here.

Love your work man, awesome.

@ChrisLewisLee So much love, still loving your work. i would pay for an artbook man. just FYI. But if I could Play this ... OMG. Take my money.

@zugzugart So much love for this, someone else i recently saw made another asset that was super heavily inspired by this i think. very cool love your work.

This is sick, i just love this style of art, I wish we had a new name for it though, stylized is;

1. Technically too broad of a term to describe this, as the definition applies to any stylization be it, comic, cell shading, even just exaggeration is actually a form of stylization. So the term is technically just incorrect. Read the books.

2. Its kind of a mouthful. As opposed to something like Ghibli style for instance.

I propose, "Wow Style" for want of a WAY better term, as this term actually sucks in my opinion. Painterly is also up there but it doesn't describe the simplification of forms or the bulkiness that this kind of style relies on, you know like large boots, bolts etc. Problem here is that the style has now been used by so many studios and IP's that its not really anyone's in particular. Maybe some game historian can identify a predominant original adopter?

Now that I think about it, isn't this just Blizzard style?

@saturn_illus Wow, I absolutely love this. alot going on here, but it stays simple, easy to read and just reads fantastical in so many ways.

[Shifting Games @ShiftinggamesAU]

@musasabipost616 Wow, design is incredible. Love this so much. AI I assume but yeah, just so cool.

[Shifting Games @ShiftinggamesAU]
