Is this pixel art..? It looks like it, but I'm so used to seeing pixels being tiny and this is huge! Either way, I really like your color choices. The poor thing looks very distressed, from the lines under its eyes to the posture and hands. Great work conveying that in this.

[Art] "S-sorry..."

It's "binary" art, which I drew in Photoshop with a pencil brush set to a couple of pixels wide; I didn't TECHNICALLY draw the whole thing pixel-by-pixel, but a lot of the finer details in the shading are done with a 1-px brush.

I'm sure this poor kobold will feel better in no time. Thank you so much for the comment!

    It's really interesting, though when I looked up "binary art" it showed art composing of binary code instead. Is there a different name that its commonly known as? I'd love to look some more up.

    I use Sai myself, it has a tool called a binary tool that probably serves the same function. I might try something like this out at some point, its a super neat aesthetic and I've found that I prefer to do my pixel arts larger, so it may be something I enjoy.
