you just lost my respect my guy #antiai

yall remember… companies dont make art, people do. there is no disney art, there is no unreal or tencent art. they create a wrapper around someone else’s art. find out who makes the stuff you love

Quote with your blue art 🩵

it do be like this sometimes

My main from almost a decade ago

"The color is repellent, almost revolting; a smouldering unclean yellow, strangely faded by the slow-turning sunlight." I made a "Yellow Wallpaper" piece back in 2017, but I re-read the story over the weekend and wanted to try again. Much happier with this version 🖤

“Challenging myself is good for my artistic growth” I say to myself as I redraw something for the fourth time

sometimes you just have to listen to the StarCraft Terran theme on repeat

Mood.

Boy, once I get to work on my next project, once I finish my other next project, once I finish my current work-in-progress, it's over for you nerds.

With all the hubbub about the new starters from the next #Pokémon game, I felt nostalgic and wanted to draw my favorite OG starter with a 🌱 twist. #bulbasaur

i am usually compelled to draw the "hardest art" i can manage, which means lot of foreshortening, funky poses, etc. the best solutions are often much simpler, but i forego "good art" in favor of "hard art". i think on some level i still feel the need to prove that i know how to draw

Which is why the damage AI causes shouldn't just be framed as an issue of regulation: So long as someone's willing to take the low-road—and there always will be—an AI-safe society is impossible.

me, dead and at the gates of Hell: but why I am going to the ninth level, for betrayers? who have I betrayed? a demon, poring over his book: it says here that you made Rodger get up off your lap after he was comfortable. me: I didn’t know that counted. a demon: it’s the main thing we look at.

The fact that ai art and writing programs are built on stolen work really seems to be fading from the discussion even amongst artists and writers, which is a bit shit.

being an artist is just decades of going "ugh I wish I knew how to draw" over and over again until you die

Working with this rainbow scratch board is always a fun challenge to determine the size and composition I need to get the colors I want. It’s only about 5 inches wide which is…a little less fun 😅 but scanning it in kinda made it look like an old TV which was a happy accident #arknights #NeonRain

I don't have a type. Unless you mean "men with long white(-ish) hair", then I most definitely have a type. 🫣 #Arknights #Hellagur #ArknightsFanart

Echoing this to say that $1 a month to a creator whose work you like is equivalent to easily a thousand ad-supported views on their videos. Even a little bit of support makes a hugely outsized difference - pick your favourites and support where you can.

Love this from Guillermo del Toro

this feels like a universal thing i experience all the time lol

For another, you can just do art and not post it. I do that all the fucking time. I make doodles for my tabletop game, I draw my little avatar guy. Art can be just for you and like four of your weirdest friends. The purpose of human expression is not Posting.

"AI isn't going anywhere, it's here to stay, can't put the genie back in the bottle, just gotta get used to it." Just say that you are tired and exhausted and feel hopeless and want to give up. It's okay. Everyone feels pretty fucked at this point. Just say what you feel.

Hey Larian, hey Swen. Just dont. Just dont use AI. Its that simple. If you're using it for Concept Art, you are replacing people. If you are using it for Writing, you are replacing people. If you are using it at all in the development of the product, then its in the final product. Just dont use it.

A heartfelt thank you to all who buy from independent artists, hire us, or even share our work or give words of encouragement. Even the most established of artists are feeling a decline in work and sales this year. Your support in all or any way is felt and appreciated amongst us! Thank you!!

Just really sucks that so many of us are barely getting by (if that), and the people who stole from us are rewarded with billions. It's hard to put into words how demoralising that is.

Also that “bad” art can be good and fun in ways other than technical impressiveness. Just off the dome, this picture has brought me so much happiness

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

Finished the Date Everything OC! I was pretty pleased with how she turned out #ocsky #dateeverything

As a biologist, It really is a great analogy. Also trees. It's like saying, "There are trees and grass, you have to be one or the other." Ok... where is the line that defines "is a tree?" what about bush-like grasses? Palm trees? NON-tree palms? What about horsetails and their tree-like ancestors?

I sincerely need people who have built LLMs into their daily routine to consider the implications of how they’re being fucked with

It's a couple days late, but I did a halloween version of my Nekonyancer 🎃🐈‍⬛

I don't care how good the content is, if you use GenAI images for illustration I'm not opening, reading, or sharing your work. Even beside the disrespect to creators - I don't trust the laziness to stop at the images.

Happy Halloween!
