All I could think of after I watched the new Mega Man: Dual Override trailer. #megaman #rockman #megamanDualOverride #videogames #astroman

A meme of the 'I lived bitch' template, where Top Man says: My robot master friend, who was presumed dead 8 years ago, texted this
And Astro Man is on the bottom saying, "I lived bitch".

Happy August everyone. I hope you're all having a great day today. I sketched out this idea of Shadow Man last week, then going back to it decided to do a full painting. #megaman #shadowman #megaman3

Shadow Man from Mega Man 3. He's sitting down reclining with the moon and a cityscape behind him.

Happy Friday everyone! Hope everyone is having a good week and looking forward to the weekend. Proto Man has always been one of my favourite characters of the original mega man series. #megaman #protoman

Next robot master I've painted is Pharoah Man from Mega Man 4. I've honestly tried playing this game again recently but it's hard to enjoy the music when all I hear is the mega buster constantly charging. #megaman #pharoahman #megaman4

Pharoah Man from Mega Man 4. He has his arm up in the air gathering energy.

I painted this Snake Man for my friend's birthday, which was this past weekend. She gave me permission to post him to here.

Snake Man from Megaman 3 - he's crouching down with a search snake in front of him and a large Snakey in the background.

Been going through a lot lately, this painting felt good for my soul. I was looking through old art prints the other day and realized I haven't painted Kirby in a long time. #kirby #watercolor #painting #nintendoart

Kirby floating in water on his back looking up at the viewer, bright stars around him falling and floating in the water as well.

Ironically Fire Man is the first Mega Man robot I did out of the ones I've been posting, I just hadn't posted him yet. That doesn't mean he's any less special than the others! Since the new game was announced it's given me incentive to paint more! #fireman #megaman #watercolor

Fire Man from Mega Man 1 on the NES. Watercolour and Ink.

North@northly· Dec 11

I broke from the Mega man 3 trend and went back to the original. Here is Elec Man! What are some of your favourite robot masters from the mega man series? #elecman #megaman #watercolor

Elec Man from Mega man 1, done with watercolours. He's holding his fists up and energy is dancing around them.

I've been painting some other Megaman robot masters! Here's Snakeman from Megaman 3. #snakeman #megaman

It's my birthday today! To celebrate I've doing art of one of my favourite games of all time - Megaman 3 for the NES, which is also the first mega man game I ever played! Made with watercolour + outlined in ink. #megaman #shadowman #watercolour

For months and months I've been trying to get away from my 'light, soft' paintings, then I tried out new paper and was just like, "Ok soft away". I'm pretty happy with how it turned out! The Alolan Vulpix is my favourite pokemon. #alolanvulpix #vulpix #watercolour

A soft watercolour Alolan Vulpix sleeping in a bed of pine needles

Work in progress for this weekend - Alolan Vulpix. Inspired by my own white floof of a dog. #vulpix #alolanvulpix #pokemon #watercolour

In addition to painting fan art, I also enjoy drawing and painting fantasy creatures. I used a white gel pen over the watercolour paint for the white highlights.

A baby hippogryph looking at the moon. Purple, blue and grey colours surround it.

Here is the original painting for context

Espeon underneath a rocky archway. The painting is mostly pink with green in the background behind the arch.

Mew! It's based on an earlier painting I did that I will post in the comments. I decided to do another take on the concept and was shocked at how different it came out just from changing the colour palette. #mew #pokemon #pokemonart #fanart #watercolor

Watercolour painting of pokemon Mew underneath a stone arch, the three g1 legendary pokemon - Zapdos, Motres and Articuno are in the stone around him

This painting is a little different because I was experimenting with gouache + watercolour (usually my work is all watercolour or watercolour + ink). The background is from a photo I took while in japan a few years ago. Petilils and Floette. #pokemon #petilil #floette #watercolour #gouache

Petilils and floette around a japanese latern - watercolour

These two games. DOS2 is how I knew bg3 would be amazing, and ME2 is the best of the trilogy. "I'm Commander Sheppard and these are two of my favourite games on the citadel."

North@northly· Sep 22

Happy poke-Monday everyone, I decided to do a Vulpix in autumn leaves part 2. (Or part 3 possibly if you count the painting I did years ago) #vulpix #pokemon #fanart #watercolor

Watercolour vulpix from pokemon frolicking in leaves.

Back from the fire emblem 3H vaults, I did this piece a few years ago of Linhardt and Petra for the Petra zine. #petra #linhardt #fireemblemthreehouses #fe3h

Petra and Linhardt from fire emblem three houses fighting monsters in the woods. Watercolour painting.

A watercolour painting of Flayn from Fire Emblem: Three Houses that I did a few years ago. Seeing everyone else's art popping up is making me nostalgic. #fireemblemthreehouses #fe3h #flayn
