Hello, friends and community. It's been several weeks since I last showed my progress in #PixelArt and, so as not to lose the thread, today I bring you day 4 of the pixelart challenge. This time, the theme was Slimes, so let's get started.

But first, what is a slime? In video games, slimes are known as a group of creatures whose physical characteristics are soft and malleable bodies. They can present different colors and shapes, almost always with a gelatinous appearance. Its origin dates back to the beginnings of Dragon Quest in 1968 and has jumped to several video games and board games with other names such as slimes, slimes or even jellies.

In one of my favorite video game series, Final Fantasy, these creatures appear from the very beginning and were later renamed Flan, at least in the Spanish translation. Plus, they give it more of a dangerous monster feel.

Slimes are a good way to practice pixelart despite their seemingly simple form, because they are translucent shapes with transparencies and reflections. Here I will show some final results.
