If you use or were considering using SAMMI, switch to a different program. The new sole developer is extremely pro-AI, has already started using it in the code, and is in support of its use for genAI images as well. Everyone who protested this was told to leave the server and stop using SAMMI.

Finished a Soft Style commission for LarkPlayz of their character Torean Lark in his Winterlion Ceremonional Armor! Metallic lions are hella fun to render with cel shading! I had a great time with this one.

Schedule for the week! Been doing some studies of shirt folds for next month's Ko-Fi reward, which I'll finish up this week. We will return to the Waffle House parking lot on Friday and Saturday, both streams starting later in the day. Sunday is resuming Hourlies!

Schedule for the week! Torean Lark should be finished Friday, Fox Pirate Vs Bunny Ninja should begin Friday or Saturday, and there are 6 hours of hourly commission work in the queue for Sunday!

Listen to me. Listen. If you're making images that will only be displayed on screens, YOU HAVE TO LET GO. You can calibrate your screens perfectly, but then 25k people will see it on their shitty $50 monitors or cracked phone and its out of your hands. Don't think of it. Achieve enlightenment.

Also non zero chance they’re looking for people who post about going to the no kings rally. I am the type of person that thinks a rally needs more vocal support and visibility to be viable but you should also be careful in that there will be people who use your posts against you.

Looks like Japan has had enough of OpenAI!

Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions. Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail. Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos. Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.

Happy #PortfolioDay! I'm Bun, a freelance illustrator with a love for fantasy themes and getting lost in details!! My commissions are always open and I work on them live on Twitch! ✉️: [email protected] 🎨: vgen.co/bunbundango 🍡: bunbundango.carrd.co 🐰: twitch.tv/bunbundango

Schedule for the week!! Working on full-sized commissions Friday and Saturday, resuming Hourly Sketch Commissions on Sunday!

I usually go out of my way to draw out my perspective grids by hand but for certain projects I speed up the process by using this generator by Reuban Lara reubenlara.com/perspectiveg... if you find it as useful as me I encourage you to click the little Paypal icon at the top right to send a tip

This is a warning to every artists and clients using PayPal: Leave the note blank or send invoices. Apparently even saying "commission" makes them trigger happy. #SaveSpeech #StopPaypros And continue the pressure by calling PayPal. Helpful link here: anti-censorship-campaign.carrd.co#phonescript

Schedule for the week!! Excited to resume usual work hours, wahoooooo!! Personal Art Day on Tuesday, full-sized commissions on Friday and Saturday, and Hourly Sketch Commissions on Sunday as usual.

The PC is up and running again!! Test stream tomorrow to see how it hands OBS and VTubing, and if it seems stable enough I'll begin work on commissions! If all goes well, then Sunday I'll be resuming the Hourly Sketch Commissions!! WAHOO

My computer's working again!!! Going to do a test stream tomorrow when I'm back from the library job to see how it handles all that.

So this is usually when I'd make a schedule for the week! But since the past two schedules went to waste because of PC problems, I'm going to hold off until I have a working PC again. I will say I am hoping to be up and going again by the weekend... again. So here's hoping!

Hhhhh. The new GPU arrived and it's too big for the case. The one I'm looking at ordering could be here by Thursday, but I'm not sure if I can have everything up and running by Friday like I'd hoped.

Schedule for the week! I unfortunately could not stream as intended last week as my video card started to die and kept my computer in a state of hard crashing every twenty minutes.

Oh hi! My commissions are currently open! Well, they've been open, but I really aught to post about it once in a while. I don't have a set number of slots, but I keep my queue publicly available so my current workload is transparent: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Plan for the week! Focusing on maintenance, the Primal Bun print, and Hourly Sketch Commissions this time. Model edits I might still do during my free time, but I want to try and get the print done sooner rather than later.

feeeees duuude. 5% already feels huge, then stripe/paypal is another fuckin slappp if you're an artist taking comms online, PLEASE be exporting your paypal/vgen/stripe summary at the end of the year and claiming those fees as a deductible. i have somethin like $900usd of fees to report every year

if you take any kind of income from paypal (comms, kofi, stream tips etc): Activity > All Reports > Activity > Activity Report: generate a balance affecting CSV report of the current tax year then take the sum of the fees column, being sure to separate and convert different currencies.

Schedule for the week!! Aiming for four streams this week, working on the same projects. Streams will be about three hours except for Sunday's, which will be the usual 7-ish.

If you're in this class, you can fill out this form to make a claim: www.lieffcabraser.com/anthropic-au...

Schedule for the week! Working on a private commission offline on Tuesday, going to try to finish the Jackalope Shrine on Wednesday, then streaming Friday through Sunday on the same projects as last week!

This is good news

Schedule for the week! I would've streamed tomorrow, but I gotta get my toe x-rayed in case of fractures so it's easier to do offline stuff Tuesday instead of Wednesday. Otherwise doing all the same things this week!
