A self-portrait I made back in 2021, when I was still trying to hold onto making art. It's one of the last complete pieces I've ever made. The only change I made since then was blurring and covering up my initials.
!!! It's not a fully original work, however !!! I used 2 images from a game by
Kanoguti - Intelligent-Rackety-Paradise, those are the smiley face sprite, and the glitchy bars covering the words, which I heavily edited. Even when I try to make something of my own, I can't help but copy or straight up steal things.
There was a version of this without the smiley face "mask" and the glitches censoring the words, but I deleted the PSD way back then, and it is now forever gone. You can only guess what is underneath them (hint: it's not complements).
