Artist, Game Dev. On a quest.

And don’t even get me started on the skins/stickers I finished for CS:GO that I'd like to bring over to CS2.

Here are just a few of them:

The number of unreleased skins/stickers I’ve started for @CounterStrike and never finished is getting worryingly high. I’d love to finish some just for fun, but it’s starting to feel a bit overwhelming 🥲

Here are two examples:

@ayi_sanchez Me flipa lo bien que funciona el combo de tu environment art con los personajes estilizados de Ricardo :D

Some more graffiti I did for CS2 - Train

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@ayi_sanchez These are amazing! I love the subtle face on the "E" in the DEV piece

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@ayi_sanchez So cool! Seeing this process and your train graffities really makes me wanna scratch that urban art itch and give CS2 graffiti a shot

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@ayi_sanchez No sabía que estabas trabajando en el equipo de cs! Están guapísimos 🤙

[AYI @ayi_sanchez]

One of the most fun things about working on Counter Strike is doing graffiti. Some I did for Train <3

For the 20th anniversary of HL2, I tried to make new art in the same style as my old art. That meant going back to old methods and deliberately ignoring all the stuff I've learned in the last 20 years. It was a really fun excersize.

@Pet3d_ @DesSashka @valvesoftware Hey, if you’re not using bots, good for you. But I can understand why @DesSashka feels that way when you’re taking up 22 of the top 26 slots on the collection tabs, and they’re not exactly new collections.

This needs to be addressed.

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@DesSashka @valvesoftware I think you’re giving those bots too much attention. It’s great that you brought it up, but as someone who’s been on the workshop for over a decade, I’d suggest focusing on your own work 🤙

Anyone trying to exploit the system will eventually get what’s coming to them 👍

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@BrongoCS @CounterStrike Oh, the slider was all thanks to the smart peeps at the @CounterStrike team! It's an awesome addition to the game!

I’m super happy you like the stickers, cheers!

Here’s a guide for all the stages of the Character Craft stickers from the Armory update I created for @CounterStrike!

The wear number will help if you’re using a website to preview crafts. Keep weapon volume in mind for clean results👌

Elemental Craft stickers are next👍

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@BrongoCS @CounterStrike I came up with the custom scrapping stages while working on the first batch, after a lot of iteration and experimentation. Sticker secrets are a feature I’ve been continuously improving and trying to establish in the game since my very first stickers 🙂‍↕️ https://t.co/RQiSR2tInM

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@Cryck_ @CounterStrike Of course!! the images are for the community!

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@sevenn_creator That's amazing!

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

Today I’ll share some flame crafts I thought of while working on the stickers:

🔥 P250 Money Burner
🔥 AK Fire Serpent
🔥 Discount Deagle Blaze
🔥 And I love "Hot Rod Heat" on triggers!

You can inspect the Deagle and Fire Serpent in-game by checking the text in the ALT image.👌

@sgt_paco @CounterStrike Valve doesn't know about the number 3

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

@ValveSquad @CounterStrike Yes! I’m glad you like them!

[Danidem @TheDanidem]

Here’s the guide for all the stages of the Elemental Craft stickers I created for @CounterStrike's Armory!

Be mindful of placement, wear might get weird if a sticker is placed on top of areas with a lot of volume/crevices/gaps👍

I’ll share some tips & crafts soon👌

@408romanski @CounterStrike my goal was to give players as many tools as possible to maximize the number of potential combinations for crafting 🙌

@EvilCanaries @CounterStrike Originally it was a pixel art star, but I felt it didn’t fit the crafting theme of the collection. I decided a question mark would be more useful for players in crafts with words, and it’s also a nod to the Mario question mark boxes.
