When you decide to do BOTH Inktober 52 and Mab's (Weekly) Drawlloween Challenge 🫠: #artistproblems

Inktober 52 Week 41: Heavy In the story of Beowulf, the title character kills a monster with a giant's sword. The sword is too heavy for anyone but him to lift because of his incredible strength. #inktober #inktober52 #inktoberheavy

Art friends: Here's a tip for getting rid of *a lot* of the AI slop in your Pinterest feed. ⭐Go into your account settings. ⭐Click the "Refine your recommendations" tab. ⭐Click the GenAI Interests subtab. ⭐TURN OFF EVERYTHING. So far, my feed is *significantly* cleaner.

Back-cover-of-the-book text shouldn’t be allowed to spoil anything that happens in the second half of the book. Authors worked hard to put that stuff in that order!

Define your music taste in eight artists: 1) Avril Lavigne 2) Guns n, Roses 3) The Pretty Reckless 4) Yungblud 5) grandson 6) Motley Crue 7) Taylor Swift 8) Panic! at the Disco

Inktober 52 Week 40: Weave I recently read the Blood of Stars duology by Elizabeth Lim and LOVED it. 😁♥️♥️♥️ So when the "weave" prompt came up, I immediately wanted to draw the main character Maia a.k.a. The Weaver. #inktober #inktober52 #inktoberweave #bloodofstars #maiatamarin #fanartfriday #artsky

The more AI commercials I see, the more it seems like the main selling point is "You don't have to think for yourself anymore." Okay... but... I *want* to. 🫤

How I've felt all day: #artistproblems

I fed into ChatGPT a draft of a piece I wrote that I hope comes out in CSO next week (it’s an exclusive!) and asked the app to make improvements. It jumped to conclusions that were wrong and turned text into quotes that weren’t quotes. You can’t use AI for news. It’s unreliable as hell.

Of course women don't like the Cybertruck. Women only want one thing, and it's a Megazord.

Inktober 52 Week 39: Libra ⚖️ The Libra zodiac sign is represented by the scales, so here's my take on Anubis, weighing the souls of the dead with his scale. #inktober #inktober2025 #inktober52 #inktober52libra #anubis #egyptianmythology #traditionalart #fantasyart #skeleton #artsky

How it feels leaving the subway in the afternoon:

no one outside of trade publications was talking about the box office gross of a movie like One Battle After Another until the last few years. we've gone completely insane.

Inktober 52 Week 38: Avocado A server droid serving nachos and guacamole. #inktober #inktober52 #inktober52avocado #robotart

#artsky When you finish the line art on a *very* detailed drawing:

Me earlier: Yay! I'm gonna draw a forest. 😁 Me now: So. Many. Branches. 😵‍💫 #artistproblems

trying to explain the feeling in my brain as OpenAI and Grok both announce their GenAI tools are opening up to porn generation while anyone who so much as draws a boob is nuked with an orbital laser

Happy #PortfolioDay 👋 I'm an illustrator specializing in cover art and character design. I especially love drawing fantastical and otherworldly subjects. 🎨✨ #artsky

A question for #comicsky : What is your favorite character-defining run written by someone who didn't create that character (i.e. Frank Miller/Daredevil, Chris Claremont/X-Men, Alan Moore/Swamp Thing)? For me, it's Cameron Stewart's Batgirl. Most adaptations of Batgirl onscreen borrow from him.

Inktober 52 Week 37: Squid Akkorokamui was a monstrous spider-lady who was turned into a giant octopus-lady by a spirit. #inktober #inktober52 #inktober52squid #traditionalart #blackandwhiteart #japanesemythology #seamonster #monsterwoman #copicmarkers #tombowfudenosuke #cansonpaper #artsky

Inktober 52 Week 36: Doll Some fan art of Noa, the main character of the comic Sky Doll by Barbara Canepa and Alessandro Barbucci . Sky Doll holds a special place in my heart because it was one of the comics that made me a comic book fan. 😊 #inktober #inktober52 #inktober52doll #skydoll #artsky

Leto can ruin a hundred iconic franchises, while making watered down My Chemical Romance music, and I still won't hate him near as much as I hate CoPilot.

You know what, it’s one of those days, have Cookie Monster kaiju again.

Best analysis of Tron: Ares I've seen, and its from my comment section.

I got my first illustration gig because a writer saw my art on DeviantArt and wanted me to do his cover.

Inktober 52 Week 35: Virgo Virgo is my sign, so I decided to go with a self-portrait for this one. 😊♍ #inktober #inktober52 #inktober52virgo #selfportrait #traditionalart #blackandwhiteart #copicmarkers #tombowfudenosuke #cansonpaper #artsky

Inktober 52 Week 34: Tomb Someone left flowers for a knight who fell in battle. 💐 I'm all caught up on my Inktober sketches, now I just have to ink them, can't wait to show you 😁. #inktober #inktober52 #inktober52tomb #ghost #ghostart #skeleton #fantasyart #traditionalart #blackandwhiteart #artsky

My zillionth time listening to this song and I still get misty-eyed. 🥹 #kpopdemonhunters #whatitsoundslike

Everything I hate about AI is summed up in this video. youtu.be/_zfN9wnPvU0?...

They are called writers

I totally blame #KPopDemonHunters for draining my wallet like this 😅💸

Hoping Mystique looks like this in the MCU. 🤞 #wolverine #playstationstateofplay #MCU #Marvel #xmen

Just got back from the bookstore with Unravel the Dusk, eager to devour the rest of Spin the Dawn now that I can dive right into the sequel. 😁 #bloodofstars #elizabethlim #yafantasy

About 100 pages left in Spin the Dawn, but I don't want it to end yet. Pages 283/284 were too happy, I'm afraid of what comes next. #bloodofstars #elizabethlim

How I feel being almost done with Spin the Dawn:

My new scanner wouldn't behave when I tried installing it 😣, couldn't figure out why until I checked the device manager and saw that it was the right brand, but Amazon delivered the wrong model. 😠 Keeping it 'cause it suits my needs, but this isn't the first time Amazon got on my nerves. 😒

Bruh

the writers for this season of AMERICA are so OTT it's embarrassing

Never thought Eminem would have something in common with Jimmy Kimmel.

#whatimreading #dccomics #markwaid Just finished this awesome crossover by @markwaid.bsky.social and Dan Mora. Great action, gorgeous art. 😁👍

Good advice & a good reminder.
