Great job Brandon! Dont feel bad about combining the themes, its all about participation and creativity! Great job on this piece btw, i love the moon ice cream lol
I have a name for this sword that has some cool parts that I can argue for “Faithfulless” 1, it sounds like nonsense, which matches the mixed aesthetic 2, is made of faithful and faithless, representing the divine and cursed sides
The best way to participate in a challenge, is the way that won't burn you out or force you to put aside important things/interrupt your daily schedule in a bad way.
It's always so much fun to see these art challenges! I like how you adapted the prompts to fit a framework that works for you, and ended up with such a fun & chaotic design 😎 The Pico 8 palette is a great look, I was already vibing with it the moment you began shading! 😁
Thanks so much! Yeah it's so interesting to me how different things could get for this combination approach - I was looking ahead to some of the weeks to come 👀
Frankenstein Greer making monstrosities out of tiny squares. This is a cool idea I’d like you to revisit one day. Squishing multiple prompts into one idea is chaotic and entertaining.
Haha thanks dude! 🧟♂Yeah I'll have to try this again; it's fun to cram all the different ideas together, and trying to make it work in some sort of cohesive (albeit unhinged) way. Would lead to very different results depending on the recipe 👨🍳
Jeez dude this is so good. Very inventive decisions made here; you were right to run with the cone theme once you discovered it. Also, I can NOT get over the chunks taken out of the cracked half of the blade. It's just so wonderfully done, I could stare at it all day. Great work!
Thank you! Taking those little chunks out actually led me to the idea of giving that side of the blade a stone texture, which I think ended up being a cool look. Quite fun to throw all these ingredients together and just see what can materialize
I was already excited when I saw how well the pico-8 palette worked. Then you added the reflection lines on the metal side. But the final animation sold it to me. soooo goood! btw. could be a fun lore to explore that enemies that got hit with the divine side turn into allies, but enemies hit by the cursed side turn into zombies. So you have to be careful with your swings.
Thanks dude! Wow, that's an awesome idea - sounds like it'd make a fun mechanic for a game too, if you could somehow make the different swings part of it 🤔 There really could be a lot to explore with this concept, especially with how many themes are already at play! 😅
this was a great idea. the monthly challenges are great if you have the time but you'll be more satisfied following the creative projects you're more passionate about
I did this once (on Sketch when it was a thing) combined a few prompts for some art challenge month, I think it's really cool and makes very unique things
Good combination! Regarding the spirit of things, you absolutely aren't going against it, the entire point is to inspire you to get SOMETHING out there even if not in the daily format :)
I have a name to propose; Extra-Calibur! You really made all these themes that have no business working together all on one blade into a coherent, fun design. Also I kinda feel like a Kirby character could wield it in a roguelike spinoff. :>
Almost 300k subs? Well done! Haven't checked out your channel in a while and it seems like you're getting the attention you deserve. You'll hit the half a million mark in no time!
I love the Pico-8 pallette. It's basically the only colors I ever use at this point haha. Great work on this onen I honestly think combining the prompts is a really interesting remix of the intended daily idea.
Looks really cool, but out of context I would never have guessed that it is meant to be a sword. Even the labels don't want to tell me the truth - a truly cursed sword, isn't it? 😂 Oh, and the smoke fades out too fast optically due to the blue tile in the background.
Oh dude... I know what this Sword is called. There is only ONE name. Reminds me of a little green bubble domed car that was designed by a certain Homer Simpson, who threw ALL THE STUFF into one design. So taking the same approach to the car's name, this sword is clearly then named "The Brandon". (and hopefully it doesn't end up with you screaming "I'm ruined")
"Septender"? Like the 'seven' in "sept"ilion, but also edgy and melodramatic, like any good sword aught to be edit: argh, "Septicide", seven-sided death
Those are great ideas; love bringing in the '7' into the naming - I could imagine a thing where all the individual pieces need to be found and brought together to create the final form ✨
I hate you , you made me love pixel art and I hate pixel art and now i learning pixel i don't know why i like it i hate pixel art like why im working with this low resolution this is all your fault
I love the little subtle skull in the ice cream.
Glad I’m not the only one; I thought I was experiencing pareidolia! 💀
It's interesting because that wasn't even one of the prompts
Wait I didn't even notice that!
@@TheRealBatabiipretty sure it’s still part of “cursed” :)
And now it needs a Megazord themed around all of these prompts to wield it
That's such a great idea, would love to see a pair of divine and cursed robot halves combine into one for this! ✨
i especially like how this one looks during CRT Time... didn't know swords could be this cute ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ
Thanks! ૮₍ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ₎ა The pico-8 palette translated really accurately to the CRT; really cool to get in close on the details there ✨
Great job Brandon! Dont feel bad about combining the themes, its all about participation and creativity! Great job on this piece btw, i love the moon ice cream lol
Thanks! You're totally right, and it even became a fun additional challenge to work it all together ✨
I have a name for this sword that has some cool parts that I can argue for
“Faithfulless”
1, it sounds like nonsense, which matches the mixed aesthetic
2, is made of faithful and faithless, representing the divine and cursed sides
Ooh that's a good one! I like how it sounds contradicting and correct at the same time - perfectly balanced 😎
Also sounds like “faithfulness” too, but with the error you know something’s up
it also indirectly spells out "full" which would work both for edible, when your stomach is full, and for the full moon

@@BJGpixel Yeah, this idea has so many variables, every piece is bound to be fascinatingly unique.
Sharp piece of art!
👈😎👈
This looks like a very powerful late game sword in a game that's like an easter egg kind of stuff with combined buffs/stats.
You should call the sword "Duality's Dance"
Jeez dude this is so good. Very inventive decisions made here; you were right to run with the cone theme once you discovered it.

This is DEFINETLY your best work so far! I wish I had a percentage of your skill and talent, hope some day I can reach that level of art
You’re the #1 most goated youtuber for Pixel Art vids bro
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH the shading is genius
You’re my favorite pixel artist, Brandon!
This sword looks incredible, I'd love to see you do something like this again
Thanks for shouting out Septembit! It looks interesting and I might attempt it (even if I'm starting late)!
Would be veryyy cool to see you do a couple more weekly combined prompts from this list if you'd want to! So cool 🥳❤️ enjoyed this a lot
looove that the moon looks like a skull on the cursed side
I love the Pico-8 pallette. It's basically the only colors I ever use at this point haha. Great work on this onen I honestly think combining the prompts is a really interesting remix of the intended daily idea.
"Sweet Dreams and Nightmares" - Sword name
of course your creativity would manifest into something like this. amazing work as always!
great ideia. with that you can turn a whole month into 4 or 5 challenges, thats really nice
it looks really sick, good job dude!
I can't wait to see if you continue next week with the following 7 prompts.
the dragon based Smaugust just ended. :3
The sword of 7 tales
Its amazing, i think i Will do it like it was the minecraft swords style, só, smoke sword, food sword, thats gonna be so cool!
That'd be fun! Would be cool seeing all those different swords together in that same style ✨
The Winged Moonblade of Baskin: Bringer of Life and Death.
The Slashin' Robbins sword. Has at least 31 effects.
Amazing! 👏😮
The sword of flourish and despair!
My man just drew:
“It is better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war.”
― Miyamoto Musashi, The Book of Five Rings
super cool
The name "Mixcalibur" came to mind, since its a combo of 7 prompts 🤭✨
Cursed Moon Dagger of the Divine Cream 🤔
Looks really cool, but out of context I would never have guessed that it is meant to be a sword. Even the labels don't want to tell me the truth - a truly cursed sword, isn't it? 😂
Oh, and the smoke fades out too fast optically due to the blue tile in the background.
Its Crystalis!
"Just Desserts"
Brandon, could you please make a video about top down characters? It would help us sooo much! P.S. Your videos are some of my favourites!
Its really nice! Like it a lotl
still haven't done anything myself but i still want to do every daytopic haha
Oh dude... I know what this Sword is called. There is only ONE name.
Reminds me of a little green bubble domed car that was designed by a certain Homer Simpson, who threw ALL THE STUFF into one design. So taking the same approach to the car's name, this sword is clearly then named "The Brandon".
(and hopefully it doesn't end up with you screaming "I'm ruined")
Hahaha thanks d00d, great comparison! If I am worthy of becoming the sword's namesake, it would be an honour ☺
i love ur content
aaahhh... the CRT time...
"Septender"? Like the 'seven' in "sept"ilion, but also edgy and melodramatic, like any good sword aught to be
edit: argh, "Septicide", seven-sided death
Those are great ideas; love bringing in the '7' into the naming - I could imagine a thing where all the individual pieces need to be found and brought together to create the final form ✨
Sooooo, if I eat the icecream do I get Sailor Moon like powers? What flavor is the right wing? CAN I BITE THE DIVINE STEEL?
I saw edible and wings and just wanted to see chicken wings haha
It turned out very cool, it's nice to watch the drawing process, I'm amazed at your skill =)
Cool I love your Art
I love sword designs, im super sxcited to see your work today!
It seems like there are a few different lists out there from different artists, who is this list from?
What if you called the sword "The Equalizer"
Septelibur the swordtember sword
I need this sword
genius
The name of this sword should be "Tember".
are you going to do anymore Blockbench stuff?
where can I see this Swordtember official prompt list?
First it sounded like a terrible challenge to me... but the result proved me wrong
I can swing my sword, sword
可愛いなぁ、
First ever!
I hate you , you made me love pixel art and I hate pixel art and now i learning pixel i don't know why i like it i hate pixel art like why im working with this low resolution this is all your fault
Embrace the square
