Starting this afternoon and into the evening, things were rough for me. At times I was depressed and at times I was numb. I had 2 or 3 good days prior to today and I thought the worst was over. I guess I started worrying once I heard that things were going to get worse and we were going to have a "Pearl Harbor/911" moment with regard to the pandemic. I had to keep my mind off of the madness, but I didn't feel like crafting or doing traditional drawings. I have the program, PikoPixel, on my computer so I thought I'd play around with it. I browsed the free icon bases on deviantART and found several that I liked. Here are 3 of my favorite icons that I made today. They are all in my likeness since I love doing self portraits. It's not due to vanity by any means. I just think I make a good character. =P
The base for this first one was created by ChibiPancake on deviantART. Keep in mind that I'm a total novice at this and I'm still learning. Shading is not one of my strong suits.
The next base is by Sody-Pop on dA. I had to make at least one COVID-19 related pixel.
Finally, I made a whole body pixel icon with a base by fuwaffy on dA.
I made 3 other pixel icons, but these are my favorites. Making these icons really lifted my spirits. I feel so much better than I did earlier. I did make one from scratch today: a bottle of hand sanitizer.
