Junior Executive Model

Placeholder assets in a game should look obnoxiously temporary, so obvious that no one would mistake it for the final asset. In past games we've used the doge dog (rip) as an icon, hot pink versions of characters, our CEO's head, etc. If you use a temp asset that seems passable, it may stay there.

Alright yall, my inbox is full from folks privately reaching out (please always feel free to publicly post if your contract allows) about CURRENT COVER RATES in 2026 Strap in

One of my favorite illustations in this book! Happy St. Patrick's day!

I did a short course as a part-time student at the Edinburgh Atelier of Fine Art! My whole eight weeks (Fridays from 12-5) was going this copying exercise/bargue. Never done anything like this before and I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would!

Pre-order a book I did a cover for! Victoria is a wonderful author and working with Tiny Tree is always lovely. And the book is fantastic too!

An old study of Tiepolo's Antony and Cleopatra, at the National Gallery here in Edinburgh! I need to post more so I'm going through the backlog. This was a fun little study to do in the museum, although I was not used to people coming right up behind me to look over my shoulder. 😅

"But you can't make all those people US citizens" Why not? It shouldn't be harder to make people safe and secure in this country than it is to commit crimes against humanity.

IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN A WEEK!

Dude regularly works for Disney, DreamWorks, Netflix and CN so speculate away. But this sucks no matter which studio is doing it, and gross to think some major movie this year is running with a plagiarized image from ChatGPT.

I'm pretty sure I know. They aren't. We're not going to really be able to make a lot of progress in dealing with the implications of this tech unless and until we get rid of all this "woo-woo" talk about LLMs. Anthropic pushing this line is PR, unserious.

Whoaaa! Look at that!!

>has a canon printer >sees they have a subscription plan deal (3 months of free ink) >subscribed to it and got free ink delivered for 3 months. Cancelled after >today I try to print >”ERROR. canon does not allow you to print with a subscription ink cartridge if your subscription is not active”

journalists are workers who deserve to be paid fairly for our labor and I think that far too few consumers of media recognize or even care about this fact

Wishing all story-lovers an inspiring and exciting #NationalStorytellingWeek! Here’s a video of me telling a Manx waterhorse tale, with a bit of extra magic added by @discoverkelpies.bsky.social using Elise Carmichael’s fab illustrations: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wv6N... #CelticTales #storytelling

Pinterest CEO says in layoff email: "We’re doubling down on an AI-forward approach – prioritizing AI-focused roles, teams, and ways of working" So it's time for me to move to another platform to save images

My assignment for Winona Nelson's SmArtschool class: Choose a favorite book and illustrate a cover for it. I picked "The Song of Achilles" by Madeline Miller, and my goal was to capture a similar bittersweet tone as the novel has.

I want to emphasize for people again: there's a bunch of AI stuff going around of people confronting ICE agents. It's fake. It's slop. Verify before reposting.
