Oh neat! I've never played Pikmin, but they for sure have some strange creatures! My kid is a big fan of video game history, and I watched him play a MegaMan game (maybe MegaMan x?) I was really impressed by all of the creative enemy sprites and how they moved so very different from one another.
Also, funny coincidence -- or not-- I recently listened to The Godfrey Audio Guide Episode 3: Cubes and Angels Which is an art history/fiction audio podcast covering both real and imagined art. In this episode, the Cubes are imagined, but the Angels refers to Max Earnst's Fireside Angel. And I think your work has a similar feel, so I find it very interesting that your painting biblically accurate angles. Isn't it funny how you run across these odd things, then start seeing them everywhere? Oh, I hope I don't start seeing them IRL!
Megaman X will always be my fave, still has one of the most difficult end bosses though! I wonder if he beat the game. And I absolutely love that Fireside Angel omg!! I didn't know about it until now but I totally get you and it really is a vibe! 😃 I'm glad you enjoy my art and thank you for showing me that picture too!
