Great stuff, once again. Not working on anything RN I can use these in, I just thought they were neato!
Inspired me to just for fun and on a whim make a pose of Iron Man flyin' around like he do, as well as the nigh-obligatory"War Machine is literally a pallet swap of Iron Man" recolor (which I now see glancing at the teaser was redundant).
If that is Kingpin being teased, you gotta chonk that boy up, man. He too skinny. He's supposed to be a heckin' chonker. Widen he!
Haha re: Kingpin’s size. Agonized over that! He’s still WIP for this exact reason. Bearing in mind also that Vincent D’Onofrio’s version is a good deal less… corpulent than usual designs.
That said, he could and should still be bigger, it’s easier to see w/ him posed beside “average” sized sprites in the Teaser. Like, Jon Bernthal’s hairdo is as tall as KP here in sprite form and that’s funny but not quite right haha.
I actually dig your IM and WM flight stuff here, and was planning to eventually include those as variant walk cycles where you’d have an IM kinda “hovering” a bit above the ground like it looks like you did.
I like how you interpreted color here, too. Also, thanks for having a look and dropping a comment! You have no idea how much I appreciate it!
Hey! I was wondering if you still do commissions? I tried to send an email yesterday, but I’m not sure if I did it correctly. Sorry if I didn’t! And sorry if this isn’t the right place to ask. I don’t know how to message people privately on here. 😅
Hi there. I did not receive your email. Did you send it to hedgewizardgame@gmail.com?
I do still take commissions! I usually have at least one on the go at any given time. But there’s always room for more!
Commenting here is a good idea and totally okay! It helps us connect though the details of your commission are definitely better discussed in email. If you don’t mind trying again, we can go from there!
Hey! It's me, Mac! I sent you two emails (one with the placeholder included) but there's been no response. I'm really worried I upset you somehow and I'm so sorry if I did! I'm messaging here in case they just didn't get sent properly. If I offended you at all I'm very sorry, and I swear I really do like your work! I just purchased your cyber city tilesheets and I’m so excited to use them!
(Reposting because I think I replied to someone else by accident. I’m so dumb. Sorry. 😭😭)
Oh gee, no! Nothing like that! I’ll respond to your email shortly. For now the reason for the delay was just an impromptu long weekend w/ my wife and not much time near a phone or PC. I should have probably mentioned that I am typically unavailable over weekends.
You’re not dumb! Just understandably worried about your commission inquiry! It’s all right and I really appreciate the purchase and we’ll sort out the other stuff you need ASAP!
Yeah I actually had the same issue with D'Nofrio's casting on that show, although less so, because Vincent D'Nofrio is still a rather big fella (as highlighted rather brutally in his unforgettable role as Pvt. Pyle in Full Metal Jacket). Between that and the earlier Michael Clark Duncan (RIP, king) version we haven't had a live action Kingpin that actually looks like the OG Marvel comics character (probably difficult to find an actor with something close to that body type AND any degree of name recognition, but I can dream of a white widebody Wilson Fiske on screen).
I think the more comics-accurate version of KP just wouldn’t fit the Daredevil show with its “gritty realism” approach, so D’Onofrio is miraculously good casting for their version and kinda owns a whole take on the character that is unique to that ’verse.
Then over in Spider-Verse land, you’ve got a Fiske so big and round he may just be a Ninja Turtle. I will probably wind up doing the Spider-Verse characters as well so there may just be a “white widebody” (that’s hilarious) Fiske sprite on the horizon.
EDITED TO ADD: I am also a Duncan Kingpin enjoyer. Just had a convo w/ my wife recently (we’re rewatching Daredevil show) about how he brought one kind of charisma to the role, a swagger I guess, where D’Onofrio brings his own, which is more to do w/ vulnerability.

Oh! I sent it to the wrong one! Sorry about that! Ah okay! I’ll re-send it to the correct email! Thank you! 😄
