So tired of this shit. Literally any concept artist can doodle up a better solution in minutes. And you know it’s original and not just plucked from some other IP. And they can iterate on it in realtime, allowing the whole team to be in on the process. We had this process for fucking decades.

This is what every game developer sounds like right now.

They do think we’re idiots, for sure

If you are aware of AI use on an animated production at a signatory studio please e-mail [email protected]

Any time a creative turns to this tech, they are saying "I do not respect the people who do this thing. I do not value their creative contribution to my vision. I think they are so worthless, they can be replaced by the machine that ate their work." It's not surprising this is seen as hostile.

Now you can keep track of how many billions the AI companies are losing on AI. (Red is spending, green is revenue.) isaiprofitable.com

Working on a Radial Grid option for the Vanishing Lines ruler. This generates N equal-angle lines around each VP. Thoughts, comments, ideas welcome! #LazyNezumi

CA’s transparency bill AB-412 (which forces GenAi companies to disclose if their datasets are using YOUR copyrighted works) is in a slow march to become a bill. Also due to massive tech opposition, they make us all work for it every step of the way. Don’t let em win, sign the petition below asap!👇

Rugose coral video is done! Full video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwkM... #SciArt #paleoart #3dAnimation #coral #reef

If you gotta use genAI and LLMs for projects in your personal and professional life, that just means you don't take craft or creative labour seriously enough. And your projects? Along with the rest of the folks in the rat race doing the same thing you are? What're you even doin here.

Ancient worlds carved and shaped by a long lost civilization.

We're so delighted to see Little Ruin featured in this article, it means a great deal :)

Recent painting of a couple of exomoons. #SciArt #spaceart #astronomy #Exoplanets

six years ago i was painting little ghibli inspired villages on a tower in the sky, it changed a lot in the intervening time, but i love what they did with it #towerborne #conceptart #gameart #ghibli

I also want to piggy back here, these are some of my Shorebreeze concepts for Towerborne. Was probably my favourite biome to work on and I'm really stoked with how it came out in the end. #towerborne #conceptart #digitalart

I am incredibly honored to participate in the Towerborne Art blast today alongside a team of amazingly skilled artists who I am lucky to have worked with. Come check it out on Artstation! www.artstation.com/praxispixels I'll be reposting the teams work today, so keep an eye out for more!

Another batch of Towerborne things, featuring some of my idiots

Towerborne Art Blast! I was the Environment Lead at Stoic for almost 5 years. Working on this game with the environment crew has truly been a career highlight for me. Images are from the rare opportunities I got to contribute, alongside leading all of the incredible artists listed below!

Artblast piggyback. Towerborne came out last week so I'm gonna post a couple jpegs about it I did over 4 of these
