Demented geometry. (I had to fight the online translator to keep those words intact)

Contemplate this on the Tree of Woe.

I mean, for all its narrative licenses, you can still see the years when technology was pushed forward by ingenuity, and the hope of creating things that users actually WANTED.

It's so sad watching Halt and Catch Fire these days.

Francisco Solano López

The guys ended up looking much more melancholic than expected. Reinhard von Lohengramm and Kircheis, from Legend of the Galactic Heroes.

We doodled cartoons from memory with my Valentine

What a wonderful movie is The Secret Agent. Please don't overlook the "hairy leg" bit as just some quirky South American magical realism bit. Dictatorships in SA used to come up with crazy stuff to co-opt the news cycle: in Chile they made up a whole case of apparitions of the Virgin Mary.

I've been watching this wonderful anime series from the late 80s called Legend of the Galactic Heroes, and couldn't help drawing fan art of it… Here's one of the mc, Yang Weng-Li, along his aide Frederica.

We’re just normal men

Today, we take a look at The Secret Knots by @santapau.bsky.social This is also my first time exploring a new platform called Ghost! Please feel free to give any suggestions in the comments below ⏬ keeping-it-geekly.ghost.io/webcomic-pre...

Tumblr is down, I think?

We've once again reached the point where a useful term or word loses its original intended use and becomes shorthand for, thing I don't like, but don't want to say that.

Makes sense that the man who stole from Satoshi Kon's work multiple times would make an animated series with a plagiarism machine. (clip via @ani-obsessive.bsky.social )

New comic! Victorian science! Higher dimensions! Palindromes! thesecretknots.com/comic/eighte...

Data is correct, causal agency is (IMO) incorrect. The vast majority of ppl who use AI to make images and video have never touched and would never touch Photoshop/AfterEffects/Illustrator/etc. The issue is Adobe trying to squeeze its users with subscriptions, and other customer-hostile behavior.

I felt like making some art last night/today and could have made something beautiful and/or meaningful but I made this instead. It's a Barbie Yaga Malibu Dream Hut. No regrets. Can't defeat fascism without joy.

Amazon treats indie authors attempting to get scam listings taken down in the same manner insurance companies treat sick people attempting to get medical care: deny, deny, deny, defend, defend, defend. (If they could depose, they certainly would.)

A doctor and historian for a company of mercenaries in a fantasy world. It's a grim world, and War Is Awful.

I think about this all the time (from catandgirl.com/the-genius/)

This concept that an idea is all that matters – that writing is secondary, is an afterthought, is best outsourced to a machine – I can't get my head around it.

I've redone the pose so many times it's practically a choreography.

Artist be like if I shift this line 0.05 cm to the left, increase overlay by 2%, and move this character’s head slightly by 3° will make a life changing difference that everyone notices

Another Haunted Doll made for this past Halloween, in this case it's an automaton / bisque doll drawn for @diesiskey.bsky.social

It's 20 years since @seanphillips.bsky.social and I exchanged a sketchbook back and forth in the mail, a drawn &painted call and response. INTERSECTIONS may be out of print but here is a flip through that sketchbook. You can still find the book out there :)

I've been drawing patrons as Haunted Dolls and Puppets.

Rites Second Ed. is out! This is my classless, ancestry-neutral, fantasy roleplaying game of ideal magic. It is a d20 game of free-form spell creation, flexible advancement, weapon deterioration and repair, and other fun bits. dadostostados.itch.io/rites-second... #nsr #fantasy #ttrpg #tabletop

I'm still thinking about this show two years later.

Wow, it seems the (over)use of ClipStudio 3d dummies is making some superhero comics look really stiff.

The year the theme was werewolves, it was fun to try to capture likenesses in fully transformed mode. Here's Cole:

Here's a battling wizard:

There was a year for Wizards. Here's a portrait of a warlock with his loyal snake familiar.

There was also a year for Ghosts: this one is a portrait of Rachel being a pirate spectre:

This portrait for Irym is also one of my favorites, drawn on paper and very loose.

One time I made a comic called Orgone Noir for some reason, so that year I tried with that theme: a mix of a noirish strangeness for the portraits. Here's Sara:

October is for making spooky portraits of patrons, with a different theme every year. These are some of my favorites: From when the theme was Gothic Portraits...
