I decided to start doing 30 minutes art challenges, here's what I have for now! (One of my goal with it is being able to do micro-illustrations) #art #OcArt #30minuteschallenge

🦝🥂🎉

Government sources have urged citizens to freak-proof their homes by ensuring that all board games are safely locked away, beige foods are kept out of reach and the big light is always left on. Support our pack on Patreon: www.patreon.com/posts/146213...

Going through my silly collection

Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995

A collection of all the commissions I got of Hael this year 🌸✨ Hoping to be able to support more artists next year 🩵🩷 In order from left to right : Hyeoii | Ele | Bearloaff | panpantama7 | FEeL1ngArt | xMiyaline | Azeru | Nikisannn | loemyn

the more genAI is pushed on us the more I fall in love with that rough, less polished, more obviously painted, sketchy, messy, charcoal-stained type of art that just screams with every brush and penstroke that human hands have touched it.

Saw someone talk about materials literacy and I can’t stop thinking about it. Its the thing that has made people believe all tshirts are the same and should be $5

Hibernation

Obviously, this is amazing BUT the thing I love most, is that it's directly poking fun at the desire/fetish to overanimate overlapping action & smears. Asking someone of James Baxter's calibre to *intentionally* do this (as well as mess up the spacing on a bounce) is funny in the nerdiest way.

Let's do this #artsummary for once!! Despite not being that productive this year, I am glad to have been able to feel each month anyway! (Also the fact that the warm season's art is so much simpler than the colder's is hilarious but logical lol)

Since it's already December I'm here to provide summary of art templates like in previous years. I put them in a drive folder and you are free to use any of them: drive.google.com/drive/folder... Included file formats: CSP, PSD, transparent PNG 1/2

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...

disabled artists are so fucking cool, seeing someone draw, sculpt or compose despite having a disability ranging from minor to major is insane. I remember this guy I read about that after suffering from this disease that left him paralyzed from the neck down, he learned to draw using his eyes

Time to repost In Defiance of Death again

The Deep North is turning out to be the coziest place in Valheim. I'm especially happy with the snow on these fences! 🎄

With all the BS going on within game dev and generated stuff, I really want to learn Concept Art now, any advices/tutorials/artists you would like to share?? #art #conceptart #arttutorial #artadvice

WHO'S READY FOR A NEW STORY PROJECT OF MINE ?? Me, of course, but who else? Eh, doesn't matter, HERE'S THE MC, Argos ! His design is still a wip BUT that's his overall vibe! #WIP #ArtWIP #ArgosEtSaBulle <- that's the project's name/title btw

As an editor, it's actually been really disquieting to see people decide that polished writing and grammar are "AI tells." I saw a whole discussion about how humans don't actually use em dashes because "no one knows how to type them" (alt+0151).

“The bastard sealed me, starving, inside a dusty tomb all on my own for an entire year.” Chase and I have wanted to pay homage to @velnna.bsky.social and their absolutely incredible Astarion art since we first saw it, and we finally got to! 📸 - @electrospectrum.bsky.social

strongly feel that a lot of issues impacting artists (and a lot of others too) right now (mergers, genAI, whatever) are merely symptoms of corporate greed. the animation industry's job bleed was kicked off long before covid by mergers and has been allowed to snowball ever since

Welp that was pretty much one of the only games I was hyped for at the game awards but not anymore 💀 Why everything I love must always be ruined by this damn thing

consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

LIGHTS (1991) Acrylic on watercolor board - 30” x 20” This painting, done many years ago for our Christmas card, is a portrait of my children, Alexa and Adrian, in a personal context. 1/2

Still so cool seeing my own game on consoles, not just one I worked on with a big team, but one I made mostly by myself! Shout out to the people I did work with, Clifford Meyer for the killer soundtrack, Shia for the journal art, Ilya Nazarov for the key art and all the writers!

Arlecchino 🖤❤️

🏔️ WOOLHAVEN IS OUT ON THE 22ND OF JANUARY! 🏔️ Almost doubling the base game's content! PRE-ORDERS START TODAY

When it’s dark and cold outside, what’s cosier than some lofi beats? 🎶 Bits & Hits just released their own interpretations of the #Valheim soundtrack, go check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-Lb...

I learnt how to draw when I was 30 through free ressources and tips online. Back then I had no skill, no money, I was suicidal and my health issues prevented me from even leaving my fucking bed. What's preventing you from creating is your own greed, pride and laziness. 30 vs 36 :

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous this is worth sharing and educating people about

Pls reshare🙏🏻 Beware of the fake/ Scam account! Today, one of my prior clients notified that I am being impersonated on Discord! ❗I will never Chat/Dm to clients first asking for comm, never on any platform. (unless they ask to) If you've been contacted by the fake account, pls block & report.

"The work that client firms are settling for is not better when it’s produced by AI, but it’s cheaper, and deemed 'good enough.'” This is exactly what I feared. Not that AI would replace good writing (it can't), but that good writing would cease to be valued

RANMA

I'm writing a full blog post on that ("how to start drawing"), I don't know when I'll post it but it's one of the most important point so I'm sharing this part here because I'm tired and sad of seeing so many people giving up after they overwhelmed themself with tutorials and exercises and shit

We really need to double down on outwardly stating our work does not contain AI. We're seeing it in movie credits and books, we have to start putting it on things we make and pressuring others to label their work as human made, and normalize that as much as we can, I think. stuff like this maybe

Not surprised, of course. But still. Steal from the creators who made your company what it is at a large enough scale, and you reward the thieves with wealth the likes of which none of us will ever see. openai.com/index/disney...

AI automation =/= AI generation. the scripts to automatically transcribe voice to text or whether your party character prioritizes Attack or Defense isn't the same as algorithms generating randomized results out of an amalgamation of existing data. conflating them is intentionally misleading.
