Bo is the name (not actually LOL), reverend of the mighty Bowgun from FE1. I specialize in splicing portraits and being a socially awkward German dude, who doesn’t tend to hold proper conversations. Frankly I could go on and on about all my issues, but I’ll keep it brief: I have zero confidence in my skills as an artist! In fact calling myself one at all feels like I’m spitting in the faces of actually talented people. But that’s okay! As long as I’m self-aware enough to recognize this, I may eventually be able learn the skills, required to create my own fully-fledged original Romhack. As of right now though, I only occasionally dabble in Pixelart as a hobby, whenever I feel like it, or when I suddenly get a new idea for a character, I’d be interested in writing. I’m working on a basic draft for a story, I’ve had in my mind for a long time. Assuming somebodys interested, I might end up releasing it here, just to see how many people would laugh at me.
Overall, I’m always happy to help and I’d love to see more people express themselves in fun and creative ways! Sadly, I lack the imagination to do so myself, but perhaps that extra spark I require is just hiding around the corner! We’ll see…
Thank you for listening everyone! And have a nice day!
Hey welcome! And first off, get some confidence! We all start somewhere and quite frankly, we all sucked when we start the journey of dabbling into creative endeavors.
And to be blunt, putting yourself down is just gonna put you down a vicious cycle where no one will believe in you or your abilities even before you start showing your shit so at least pretend that you’re hot shit! Faking it until you make it actually works!!
Thank you! Your concern is greatly appreciated and I‘ll definitively be more confident in the future! Seeing someone care at all, was just the push I needed!
Remember dont take any lit dynamites, tnt, bombs from anyone. There are a lot of pyromaniacs here. Last guy was lucky and it was faulty. The guy before went to the moon and had to be rescued by me via a rescue staff.
be welcome here

way more than anyone that let the computer do everything for them

Hi Bo! Don’t worry about sucking at art. Most of us aren’t good at doing something we got interested in the first time, but if we learn how to do it then we’ll get much better at the activity we participate. Some of the most important things you need are confidence, perseverance and practice. Do it and eventually your work will begin to get better and better.
Take me for example, over time I ended up improving my art skills over these past few years to the point that it’s a bit unbelievable how much I changed since then. Under here is a comparison of two sprites I did, the ones on the left were made in 2023, while the ones of the right were made in this year, being also improved versions of these done in 2025 (above sprite) and 2024 (under sprite).
So yeah, I can sincerely say that improvement is possible, as long as you believe you can make it better next time, because practice makes better.
I’ve also been thinking about certain story ideas, though I’ll have to see if one I’ll be able to put them on paper one day. In any case, thank you for the words, and also have a nice day!
