The VG Resource

I'm Silverdabolt (Silver) but my real name is Steven Ray Brown, and I am a freelance story artist and illustrator. Way back when I used to do pixel art and come here more than I hung out with my offline friends. While I do not do pixel art nearly as much as before I do still have a place for this site in my heart. I want to help the new generation of pixel artist grow with critiques and encouragement.

Anyways I'm about to graduate college soon, and I need to get a portfolio together. So the following images are what I have so far. And I'm currently working on tweaking other works to make them up to this quality or creating new stuff. If you have feed back, its greatly appreciated; and feel free to ask my questions on any of the stuff I post. And I do comissions, you can see the prices here.

(The follow is intended to be printed off 11 by 17", and are scaled down for web.)








Not in portfolio due to being fan-art, but worth showing;

Ooh I like this stuff, nice job!

I really love this.
I love the designs, and the character sheets you have!
I'm starting in second-year illustration for my college, so this stuff is kinda inspirational, great job man.

Appreciate it Rakia;





ergi was the Protagonist of the unfinished short One Small Step. He's a meek human boy, and probably the weakest main character we had. He was named because there's so many astronaut's named Sergi.

Pretty solid, man.
You probably need some more similar to the iguana painting.

The model sheets actually look like the stuff pros would put up.

My facebook page Steven Ray Brown's Illustrations broke 100 likes/followers today! (I'm so proud )


I'll be posting more stuff tomorrow, hopefully an anamatic to my senior capstone!


I tried the Bearded Dragon thing out as an experiment, don't worry I'm pretty versatile, you'll be seeing more of that and lot more of stuff I haven't done anything in yet.

Collaboration between me and The Redeemer's comic artist Wil Brendel. He did the line work, and I did the colors. I really like it.

For funsies, here's some school work;

Very impressive work with everything you've put up here. Youalready look like a professional level- colorist, and the characters designs look really cute too. I'm jealous

Thanks, I apperciate that.

...hey when did Darwing Duck get himself a woman? Man its been forever since I last saw that show :I

She's in the later seasons of the cartoon, around the time Gizmoduck showed up, I believe.

She is a villain in an episode of season 1, but by time season 2 comes around she's converted into a heroic character and a love interest for Darkwing. She's also a member of the Justice Ducks, along with Darkwing, Gizmo Duck, Neptunia, and Stegmutt.



More Lighting and texturing stuff;

Some boards not I am changing the last panels due to people getting confused.



3D rendered car, the rest is matte painting;
