Hello, new followers/visitors! I'm a digital artist in old mediums esp. #ANSIArt and #PixelArt, and an #IndieGameDev on itch.‍io! Some of my art's for mature audiences only; check your mod settings to hide/show it as you prefer. And if you want just my art posts, this feed is for you! Enjoy!
A lean, green, buxom fishperson with long parted hair standing in a green wireframe world while wearing red glasses, earrings, and a tight red satin blouse, along with form-fitting black satin trousers, greets the visitor to their website with a smile and a wave of their hand, their other hand resting on their hip and their tail lifted. The text says: "The Green Herring: Art, Games and More! This site is intended for users 18 or over! Welcome to my domain, where you can find my artwork, games, music and more. What would you like to see today?" A showcase of high-density ANSI art and pixelart. It includes "Circus of Dreams", a long ANSI art comic/tapestry depicting a circus which won 3rd at Deadline 2024; a tapestry depicting Sparkster from "Rocket Knight Adventures" flying into space along with his portrait; a Sega Mega Drive/Gensis pixelart title screen of a furry mage in a field; a full-screen Game Boy portrait; and various high-detail and high-resolution ANSI art images that include a trans kangaroo woman relaxing happily at the beach, fennec/red panda streamer RachelRetro leaping through the air carrying a Twitch Verified symbol, and a mohawked punk skunk in a jumpsuit carrying a pogo stick in a forest of giant mushrooms. Various lower-resolution ANSI art images with such images as: a farmer pig playing the banjo while sitting on the rusted remains of a robot; an alien explorer and their drone observing the ruins of a domed city; Krampus marching through the countryside at night drawn with colored outlines; a polar bear dancing to a boombox in the arctic while another stares in confusion; alien creatures on an alien world by a river of bubbling acid; two clasping hands against a black background with trans pride nail polish; an otter in an underwater cyberspace environment swimming away from a gigantic computer displaying FTP messages; a raccoon lady in a wetsuit surfing through cyberspace; and the same raccoon surfing a detailed wave in the ocean. A screenshot of The Green Herring's ZZT game "Cyber Purge" running in ClassicZoo, showcasing our nonbinary hero's fox head avatar facing down the fascist villain's avatar on the title screen, beckoning the villain to take them on.

A protogen warrior rendered in glorious CGA cyan-magenta! Why? Because I wanted to, that's why! [1/2]

#FurryArt #PixelArt #CGA #Protogen #Art #Furry #Retro
In a piece of four-color pixel art with a high-contrast palette, a protogen, a species of cyborg alien, soars through the air with their arm and knee forward and their other arm reared back, preparing to stab something with their sharp claws. The protogen, drawn in flat colors, has the appearance of a furred reptile with a face consisting of a shaped electronic display that shows a simple, smiling and determined facial expression. Their hair is a long stalk that is blown back by their movement, they appear to be wearing angular chest armor with pauldrons bearing ring patterns, their digitigrade legs are metallic with bulbs on the sides and furred forelegs, and their tail has fur missing in patches revealing its metal shell. They are outlined against an abstract background of an aura drawn with many long lines, implying the protogen is descending at high speed toward their target.

In this piece of low-resolution textmode art, a cyan, cartoon reptilian alien with giant beady eyes sits on a dirt road beside thick blades of glass and carefully studies a tiny red insect of unknown origin. A smaller tuft of grass grows nearby.

IV asks a question (p1/5 rest below)
Image Description: IV and VIVI sitting under a night sky in the middle of the desert during an aurora. IV is a green and red mostly mechanical life form with a tail made of animated water. VIVI is a very large red and white dragon with four arms and a large snail shell house on its back. IV says: "Hey, VIVI?"

In a world of magic wielded through weapons, a true master can wield magic without them. Darius Kai (they/them) is one such mage, capable of mightier blast spells than their pint-sized body would suggest.

Under a magenta sky, in a gray desert landscape, a white, lop-eared, nonbinary dwarf rabbit stands with one hand raised, the other hand forward, and a sway in their hips. Dressed in blue, they are wearing a hat with a wide brim; long gloves and stockings that expose their hands and rabbit feet; and a high-collared robe that is zipped open in the front and cut in the sides to reveal their muscular and masculine build, including their pecs, their flanks, and their hips and thighs. Their raised hand is surrounded by green, magical energy that burns like fire. From their extended hand, a mighty blast of this energy swirls and arcs toward someone or something off-screen.

For #Skunktember, I bring you Elijah (he/him)! Drawn over the course of five Twitch livestreams in glorious IBM EGA 640x350 and less than 16 colors, he stands loud and proud of who he is! [1/2]

#FurryArt #PixelArt #EGA #OC #OCsky #Techwear #Art #Furry
In front of an abstract transgender pride flag background, on a platform colored with the trans pride stripes, a skunk man in techwear stands with his hand on one hip smiling at the viewer. He has a long spiky mohawk that runs down his back and falls over the side of his head. He is wearing thick red earrings on both ears, a red shrug with white trimming that reveals his top-surgery scars, baggy red cargo pants with white trimming on the pockets and legs, and red spats attached to white soles. Next to him is a view of his messy back fur, revealing that his shirt is cut in the back to let it through, and that his waistband goes over his skunk tail. Next this is a bust of the skunk man, still smiling at the viewer, with his mohawk falling on the other side and his fur patterns shown in greater detail.

(this is her adventuring outfit) - a dark blue one-piece sleeveless fighting uniform with a diamond-shaped boob window (featured previously underneath her kimono) - another half-zip pullover, but white and blue and shorts - oversized long-sleeveed orange and white tee shirt with the words "NO FOX GIVEN" printed on front - cropped red/white tee shirt with dolphin shorts and thigh-high socks. - short-sleeved white shirtdress, with the reverse side of the collar colored blue, and a waist-high dark blue dress with a zig-zag trim. (formal/party outftit) - a big grey shoulderless sweater with a cream undershirt and an untied necktie. (comfy semi-formal outfit)

At night, a deer man on a dirt path in a forest of pine trees wearing a slit dress, long gloves and stockings made of leaves glares at the viewer with glowing green eyes as he raises his hand in the air and magical energy lashes out from it. All around him and behind him, giant vines burst from the ground, and two of them launch themselves directly at the viewer.

Don't worry about what she's throwing, the more you do the more it hurts. Emotionally at least.
A leaping anthro Jackrabbit in the air, boots tucked towards her jean clad arse, as she flings out her arm, enveloped her hand is a translucent purple energy that she's fired a bolt from. Her pupils are black as is her hair, she's sporting two gazelle-like horns from her head.
