Being an artist trying to talk with other artists is just embarrassing. "I like your shapes and colours!" Mortifying playground shit

Some hand sheets I made for the animation team! I looked at how Dana drew hands a lot and coupled it with my own anatomical knowledge of hands. #KnightsOfGuinevere

Welp... I got let go from my day job today. 💀 So uhhh, if anyone is in need of a colourist, or might be able to put in a good word for me for an upcoming project, I'd really appreciate it. I'll take any kind of gig. If you want to help by reposting my pinned, that'd be awesome too. TGIF, eh? 😭

My living situation is not simply unpleasant/abusive, my family is actively being ableist in ways that are harming my mental and physical health. My gofundme is here: www.gofundme.com/f/donate-to-... www.paypal.com/paypalme/jel... Even the smallest donation is a ray of hope.

Yo! Still got slots open, and still really struggling with money atm. Mini's birthday this month, and presents don't come cheap. Will have to throw up a sales thread this weekend, but don't have high hopes, seeing as you're all skint post-TFN.

Thank you tfa for looking squishy and having low polygon counts I don’t got the energy to render allat boxes and robo joints in my head 🥀

Gonna slowly re-build my ✨Art Tips that have Saved My Life✨ thread since we don't have bookmarks here and I constantly forget how I did a thing 🧵

Making a poster for your TTRPG Actual Play or cast announcment? Can I please recommend using a colour contrast checker? I see so many graphics which don't pass accessibity checks. colourcontrast.cc

I watched this entire play and I understood *everything* despite sucking at that type of English Shakespeare wrote. This cast and crew understood the source material so, so well. As a lit graduate, this was god tier.

All set up and ready for Game On Expo! New prints didn't arrive in time but fingers crossed I'll have them tomorrow.

When art is generated without the cost of what you are personally willing to lose for it to exist, without what it's audience is willing to lose to have it, it generates nothing. There is no story, because there was no journey, and when there's no journey there is only entropy.

Seeing the new wave of A I Ghibli slop and remembering this time last week I was so in love with a new art process that I ran my pens dry. Some people have devalued art so much they cannot and will not ever experience that kind of joy or see it as valuable and that is really sad idk

Better a pig than a gen A.I. user!

✨I really want to get back to doing pose ref-- to aid in being able to dedicate time to that I'm selling a mega pack of the entire Fat Photo Ref Archive for pay what you want (suggestion of $25)! ✨ There's over 1,000 images and I sorted them all for you!! 📷Check it out here: ko-fi.com/s/4b2db8de71

I was looking for something else and stumbled on the thumbnail from when I was working out the new version. Thumbnails are an integral part of my process, but it is always fun to see how things change.

HERON!!

Transformers Animated Derrick Wyatt Tribute piece. It's still hard to believe that he's no longer with us. I miss our Skype conversation and hanging out at cons and grumbling how we ate the white castle wrong. Stunning colors by @dyemooch.bsky.social #transformersAnimated #transformers #hasbro

Last night, I stumbled onto this reference website that I'd never heard of before, and am blown away by its quality. Highly, highly recommended. www.dimensions.com

Wings - don't tell anyone but you can just make shapes.

Revisited an old piece, the new one came together in almost troublingly record time. Due in no small part to @darjeeliarts.bsky.social 's insistence over the last few years that I use vector lines. A real game changer and I'm very mad about it 😆! #pokemon #umbreon #espeon #stainedglass #fanart

Here’s the whole series of connecting TRANSFORMERS covers in one big image:

After a year of on and off work on this one, I am finally done. More of a slog than I expected but I managed to power through it and I think it came out pretty well considering! #genshin #genshinimpact #mondstadt #venti #dvalin #andrius #illustration #fanart

Congratulations to anyone who got literally anything done in the last week.

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references. Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.

tumblr liked the tatzelwurm

a fallacy many artists fall into is this idea that improving your creative skills will make you more satisfied with drawing but creative skills are a bit like kitchen tools. they're great to have, and it makes cooking easier, but they're not the deciding factor if your food comes out tasting good
