Hello, I'm Scruffy. I'm a musician who wrote the updated music articles on Pikipedia, and now I'm here to create some original content!

My Pikipedia page

My YouTube channel

My game is Pikmin Forever. It's a conclusion to the story arc of the canon Pikmin series, with some new Pikmin types, new gameplay mechanics, and huge Challenge Mode and Sandbox modes. I'm modeling and rendering all of its concept art, and I'm composing its soundtrack! It'll all show up here as I complete it.

I have just begun with designing enemies, but the game is on hold for a bit while I complete one big project for it. This is a secret project but it shouldn't take too much longer. I will post it here when it is finished!

Music

Requested

• The main theme to Pikmin: Attack of DeathSpike.

Thanks for the requests so far, keep them coming!

Requests

If anyone has requests for music or CGI images, don't hesitate to put them in my talk page! I have capable software and a lot of experience, and I'd like to give your ideas some musical and visual background. Keep in mind that, the more detail you put in your request, the closer I can get it to the idea in your head.

Music composition comes easier to me than photo composition, but I welcome any and all requests!

Some notes:

• I use Sibelius, Notion, Studio One, and GarageBand for my musical compositions. These are all paid applications; I would still recommend them if you want a pretty capable music product without actually hiring people to play a piece. Sibelius (and Finale, but I prefer Sibelius) is the end-all notation program for professionals; it is insanely good and I am humbled on a daily basis by its scope.
• I use Blender, GIMP, Autodesk Sketchbook (the free version), and Autodesk Pixlr for all my photo composition and editing (all of those applications are free; I'd recommend them for getting ideas out of your head and onto a 2D or 3D world).

Some caveats:

• Nintendo doesn't want anyone to use their copyright, but they don't really enforce it. That being said, I would prefer if have your original music requests posted before your requests for arrangements of Pikmin music; I don't want to abuse their passiveness to YouTube remixes.
• The more complex an image you desire, the longer it will take me. I do not yet have the tools to rip or view models from the original games, so please bear with me as I build most of my images from scratch. Don't expect the full 3D Valley of Repose the day after you request it (or the month for that matter). However, here are the original models I do have access to:
  • Olimar and Louie from Pikmin 2, and Olimar and the Pikmin from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
  • The Beady Long Legs, Raging Long Legs, Segmented Crawbster, Titan Dweevil, and Waterwraith (not the original rollers).
  • Bulborb Larvae, the three adult Bulborbs from Pikmin 2 (not the original hair on the Hairy Bulborb), all dwarf Bulborbs from Pikmin 2, and Water Dumples.
  • The Careening Dirigibug and Cloaking Burrow-nit.
  • Bomb rocks, boulders, and chiyogami paper.
  • The full Awakening Wood, the backgrounds in caves (although I'm not sure how well those work), and newtest.
  • The clovers and Glowstems from Pikmin 2.
  • The Insect Condo.
  • Onions, pellets, the Iridescent Flint Beetle, the Burrowing Snagret, the Hocotate ship, the Swooping Snitchbug, the President, and the Wollywog trophies from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. These are (except for Onions) the original models, but they cannot be posed and some of their texture UVs need resolving.
