In light of recent Ai related nonsense in the creative industry, I wanted to present some easy-to-digest facts about Generative Ai

bless my partner for his unlimited patience while I am compelled to explain the lore behind every new vegas reference in fallout season 2

I made this back in 2019! It was for a chapter slate for a friend's documentary on people's personas in online role playing games.

These always make me so emotional, I feel so connected to these people from however many eons ago! I love drawing and it's in my DNA to love it!

I realized I went to 8 industry events this year! I also hosted 2 workshops and held 2 portfolio review sessions. Very lucky to have met up with old friends and made new ones 🩷 Hearing passionate & creative people talk about how and why they do things is something I'll never ever get enough of.

Working in indie games means a lot of people I'm close to know why and how LLMs are shite and I take for granted my other friends outside that sphere who just might not be as informed. So this is a great video to share with them: youtu.be/ERiXDhLHxmo?...

Our upcoming game The Hearth and Harbour is fully 2D, but with some neat tricks we’ve made it look 3D. Ethan, our environment artist, did this with a special type of texture called a Normal Map. (Thread! 1/7)

“Love it or hate it it’s here to stay” is a crazy thing to keep saying about a technology. If people don’t like using something it doesn’t have to stay we’re not talking about bad weather here

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier. Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder. thisweekinvideogames.com/feature/conc...

I'm so happy when I see small environmental details that I've put in my concepts reflected IRL. For example textures in pavements - because I spent a LOT of time walking with my head down staring at floors learning how textures connect cohesively. Using Streetview if I couldn't visit the place.

HELP! My two-headed albino dragon keeps fighting with itself? Tried contacting the breeder but they said this is normal with albies? EDIT: people keep commenting that my dragon might be a merle instead of full albino but I have the paperwork that proves it is 100% albino. HELPFUL COMMENTS ONLY.

Hot dang this video essay hits hard, is well researched, and aligns so well with what I think ails this world. I feel that now, more than ever, solidarity of the 99% will truly be one of the few things that can fix this absolute mess of a techno feudal-ish world. Mega worth the watch:

Finally finished Death Stranding 2 over the weekend after 4 months on and off. Gameplay ofc felt MUCH better than the previous, but I do think the vibes of DS1 were simply unmatched. Really felt more isolated and desolate. That said, fantastic game! Bring more silliness back into "serious" games.

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

Escape to another world
