Hi hi #PortfolioDay! 🎨✨

I'm Requinoesis, someone who loves the ocean! I'm dedicated to creating a new insight into the imagery of sharks under pastel colors! 🌊🦈✨

You can see more of my art stuff here, if you want: linktr.ee/requinoesis

Roberto, the great hammerhead shark, explores the ruins of an ancient museum destroyed by Typhon's storm. He holds a flashlight and carries a mysterious human spirit in his backpack, who accompanies him in silence.

The place, shrouded by the phenomenon called “cursed salt mist”, is covered in a permanent fog. Salt crystals sprout everywhere and a supernatural presence seem to lurk among the rubble.

The spirit that accompanies Roberto is liquid and translucent. Sometimes little tropical fish of extinct species float around him, as if attracted by his presence.

The museum's architecture is full of organic curves and ornate tiles. Decorated columns show a crab with a human face holding the moon between its pincers, an ancient symbol of a historical figure revered by the sharkfolk.

A cozy little shark bistro nestled among lots of plants.

A little harbor village of Gourdlets among a cozy grove of trees, carrying out various cooperative activities related to fishing and recreation, there are little colorful fish and a shark swimming peacefully in the sea.

An allegory of the "Jaws" movie poster that caused damage and negative stereotypes to the image of sharks that persist to this day (I'm glad it's slowly changing, but it's still too slow to be considered forgivable). Now with a reversal of roles, with the human victim replaced by a simple wild shark and the terrible stereotyped shark replaced by a monstrous human skull seeming to want to devour the shark (this is the reality, we kill thousands of sharks every year, many of them killed for irrational reasons, who is the real cruel killer?)

Illustration of Astarion (in his starting equipment) from Baldur's Gate 3 holding the blade Rhapsody, breaking red chains. He looks off to the right of the screen, while also holding some broken red chains in his hand.

Full render of Shadowheart casting a bright blue spell and holding a spear of some kind. She is tilted towards the left and looks off-canvas to the left; she's fighting with focus and a smirk on her face.

Her hair moves fluidly with her movement. Her hair is white with off-white and slightly blue-ish shadows, her armor is shiny and reflective. She is wearing her starting armor.

A large, colorful stained glass illustration of the three Pathologic Healers surrounded by representations of their routes, important items, and bulls.

On the left, is Daniil Dankovsky with his pane in light red with a couple Executor masks and the Polyhedron above him. In the middle is Clara, with a glass pane of blue and triangular shapes to contrast the organic shapes above her. Artemy, on the right, has a glass pane of green surrounded by organic, winding and tall plants.

Above them are three diamond shaped glass pieces with plants, a heart, and an hourglass. On either side of those are simple panes with bulls and the sun. And finally, in the upper middle are representations of the two versions of Shmowder (from Pathologic 1 and 2) with a Tragedian mask between them.

Illustration of my persona, Smudgy, with a simple spacey background. One leg is outstretched with the other bent. She smiles at the viewer.

Happy #PortfolioDay!
I place and sometimes animate pixels. I really like top-down environments, tilesets and limited palettes.

A top-down view of a cathedral-like structure, with many columns. At the very center, a giant baldachin, firmly standing on twisted columns. The altarpiece is mounted in a rich baroque frame, surmounted by stained glass rose window. A tall, bat-headed vampire is guarding the altar, with bats flying around. A richly adorned pipe organ can be seen to the eastern gallery. Along the transept in front of the absis, two enclosed naves host a Pietà statue and a reliquiary.
Many huge chandeliers hang above the central nave, and lots of candles are scattered around the cathedral. A few zombies and skeletons are marching towards the entrance, where a group of adventurers is preparing for battle, being surrounded.

To the side of the absis altar, downward staircases lead to the crypt. A huge skeletal dragon guards a closed gate. Many huge chandeliers hang above the central nave, and lots of candles are scattered around the cathedral.

Below the Cahedral, an underground Ossuary crypt, with walls made out of bones and skulls. An eerie light permeates the various locales, featuring grates, numerous walls of wax, monumental coffins and pillars. A Lich warlock is channeling dark magic by a sarcophagus.

The Tower above houses a giant bell. A faraway city can be seen from the terrace, as a Griffin guards the bell beam.

A secret room with four chandeliers features many tombs. There, a lady-like demon with bat wings floats above a marble coffin.

A topdown pixel art remake of Ruin Valley, from Pokemon FireRed and LeafGreen. Many ancient structures can be seen emerging from the steep cliffsides and lush tropical vegetation: temples, tall palaces and mysterious pathways and towers. A moltitude of pokemon and trainers can be seen around. To the east, the ocean with tall waves and a jagged coastline. Water and fossil pokemon live there. At the center of the valley, the legendary pokemon trainer Red is entering the Dotted Hole ruins. Peculiar rock formation resembling regi pokemon are scattered throughout the environment.

A top down, aerial view of a city and its outskirts by a swampy river. The streets are filled with people, and the architecture has a distinctive early twentieth century aesthetic, with rich bent iron structures.

A collection of tiny pixel art pokemon scenes, featuring:
1. Chinchou swimming under the waves
2. Lanturn jumping above the waves at night
3. Corsola on the seafloor
4. Horsea in a cave underwater
5. Seadra in a kelp forest
6. Kingdra among whirlpools
7. Swinub at home, sleeping on a carpet
8. Piloswin taking a bath in hot springs
9. Mamoswine traversing a snowstorm
10. Cleffa hovering in space
11. Three Clefairy dancing at Mt. Moon Crater
12. Clefable in the middle of a pond, looking at the stars
13. Porygon in a strange labyrinth
14. Porygon2 running on a mobius strip
15. Porygon-Z floating in an old screensaver
16. Bonsly sitting on the porch as the rain starts to fall
17. Sudowood taking shelter from heavy rain in a mountain cave
18. Mew looking at the viewer through fish-eye lens
19. Sunkern floating in a summer meadow
20. Sunflora basking in the sunlight over a sunflower field
21. Celebi flying through Ilex Forest

Pixel art drawing of a shadow person standing in a dimly lit doorway. He has a red scarf and glowing red eyes but is otherwise pitch black. He's wearing a coat, some boots, and a hat with a wide brim. His nickname is the Visitor and he is my OC loosely based on the Hatman sleep paralysis demon.

A set of 24 pixel art emotes depicting a stylized moth head with different kinds of emotions, and 1 emote depicting a cup of coffee

Pixel art portrait of Tina's OC named Mars - a cyborg luck deity with short hot pink hair, golden horns, blue ears and an LED display face. She has a sly look on her face, with one closed white eye and an open red eye. He is wearing a dark suit with a dark shirt and a magenta tie. They're also holding an ace of spades using the tip of their tail.

Pixel artwork of my OC Ember. He is wearing a hooded maroon cloak with golden trim and clasps with red jewels, a long burgundy robe, a wide golden sash, a white full-face porcelain mask and white gloves. His left eye is glowing orange, and he is holding a floating black lantern phylactery with a red glow that contains his soul
