I was playing Pokémon TCG for Game Boy and I built a deck built around Dragonite and Dewgong. They’re a surprisingly effective combo!

This one’s inspired by an Inktober prompt from last year: “Weave.”

On a whim, I bought a 64 count box of Crayola Crayons and colored this iguanodon. Sometimes I have to remind myself that sketchbooks are a space for play.

I was sketching Kanganewt, a character from a story I’m writing, and I added this little robot touching its snout. In a whim, I looked up how to write “love” in binary, which turned this piece into a reference to the Whatevers in MOTHER 3.

Life is like a twinkle, a single grain of sand, that flies across the universe and slips right through your hand!

I designed a Zelda T-shirt for my brother-in-law this past Christmas. The caption is something of an in-joke.

I couldn’t resist turning my dryosaurus into Yoshi. Anyone else like to play as Yoshi in Mario Kart?

Unused scientist, from EarthBound (MOTHER 2). I’m not sure if this character is supposed to be a man or a woman; the pixel art in the Secrets of MOTHER 2 is small and certain the mouth is ambiguous.

I have to wonder if the “Mini Shambler” was an earlier iteration of the Wooly Shambler, or if the two Shambler types were meant to coexist.

I had a busy year with finishing my degree at BYU-I, working day job, updating my portfolio, and freelancing. However:
1. My wife played Banjo-Kazooie, I played Pokémon Stadium
2. I played MOTHER 3 and I also played Four Swords for the @legendaryadventurespod
3. I played through the Pokémon DLC

I got a crappy novelty pen as part of a Christmas treat at my day job, the clicky kind with different colored inks. Of course I knew that I needed to use it to color some Pokémon doodles in my notebook!

I recently completed an associate’s degree at BYU-Idaho through the Pathway program. I haven’t received my diploma yet, but I treated myself to the Secrets of MOTHER 2 book and doodled this little beetle guy who went unused in the final game.

I’ve been playing the Japanese version of Pokémon Blue off and on, and I was surprised to find out that you can catch Lickitung in the wild; something you can’t do in Pokémon Red or Green!
