I still have a LOT to do, but I have at least the structure for the stage done. Now I just need to figure out what to do about the lobby below it, and THEN I can make it sparkle. (and I might have made the set from the Andrew Garfield holy water skit)

"Is it possible that I might be visually communicating something about myself with the lighting in here?"

I went all out on a giant goblin story poster, and after so much hard work, it's finally done! 🎉 Featuring characters belonging to me, @mingles.bsky.social, @chromadraco.bsky.social, and @mclowes.bsky.social 💖 Check out the closeups, the sepia alt, progress, and even the full size below! 📸

Happy pride. Never forgive the titans for enforcing their binary code on the space slugs and now they all have anxiety and boiled seas

Apparently the real gazrik is actually just trapped in this game.

I've been wanting to do this for a long time, and ended up feverishly sketching the rough on my ipad while I was half asleep--then put in 110% effort to make it real. It took me over a month and a half, phew. It's possibly the biggest piece in terms of detail and characters I've ever done!! ❤️‍🔥

Here's the sepia 🧡 And the google drive link to the full size, in case you'd like to see: drive.google.com/drive/folder... Check out the sketch and progress screenshots below! ⬇️

Trivia for @buttart.bsky.social! Just imagine my goblin complimented her on her outfit ♡⸜( •̀⩊< )

Happy Pride Month

I am booboo the clown, I turned off the color grading before I saved this... here's the actual lighting I wanted 😭

oh thank goodness they put two separate adult content labels to hide this incredibly nsfw pizza

tw: blood/gore// Ｈｕｎｇｒｙ． -- #art #warcraftart #goblin #undermine

Not to get on the allied race hate train again, but the obscene number of design elements on just the haranir alone make them one of the most batshit and awful things to draw. Not only are they horrifically overdesigned with not a lot of thought, it makes NONE of them stand out as characters.

I mean, I suspect this account's gonna get flagged over anatomical diagrams, so...

and I guess I have no choice now but to actually finish this thing. I do need to find a good font tho for talky bubbles first tho.

dear god just saw how an it looks when someone's hit with the account wide adult content warning and it's fucking MISERABLE blurred icon, blurred banner, every single post is hidden, even text posts, and posts that have images require you to hit unhide TWICE for the text and image, fucking nightmare

bsky too quiet? missing comments? not seeing posts from spicy artists? check your moderation settings and your bsky filters if you haven't configured these before, many of these will be set to hide as defaults

Welp the adult flagged accounts are now showing up, and this is... Yeah is bad. This is a bad feature. What a mess.

Be certain, as is always the case with things such as this, that ANYTHING can be considered sexual and can end in a blanket account shadowban under this. It is easily weaponized it is determined by an AI moderation system. There is no accountability or recourse. you probly can't read this.

i cant stop quoting this video man

The first Doodle order! What could be better than a goblin? That's right — two goblins! #Warcraft main.bsky.dev/profile/anry...

INTEREST CHECK #2: WEEKEND EDITION If I offered writing c/omms - will write ALMOST anything (details later if I actually get more serious about this) for $0.10 a word, 500 words minimum (so a $50 minimum for the work, more based on WC you might want) - are people into that?

Bsky is apparently gonna start flagging whole accounts as nsfw soon so if you don't already know about your moderation settings, highly suggest switching nsfw from Hide to Warn; otherwise many creators will completely vanish from your timeline when they roll this out.

related opinion: basically every genre of popular media would hugely benefit from the freedom to discuss and depict nudity and fucking, and if that sentence reads like a joke, it's because god-slobbing narcs have been conspiring your whole life to prevent anyone with a budget over $20 from trying it

nyah?

I’ve literally never posted any explicitly sexual material. Or nudity. I’m the equivalent of an old Sears catalog. Your auto mod is not accurate enough to decide to hide whole accounts. Human mods don’t exist to appeal to. This is a shadow ban. You are enacting a shadow ban. @bsky.app

Account level moderation applied by a machine is incredibly unhealthy and blackballs creators out of the ability to label their own content. There's no trust here. Please revert this change.

whenever i see people gloat about how they "don't use references" for art i just think about this bit from sam and max

LRP: I tag, tag, and tag again, but every week I end up getting my stuff shoved under a label I have to repeatedly appeal because it includes even something as simple as a man standing motionless with no facial expression in their boxer shorts for an anatomical diagram.

Bluesky folks will say something like "just tag your NSFW stuff, it's not hard ^_^" and then the increasingly stringent moderation policies force your posts (and now your entire account) into ever-shrinking gated boxes to choke you out in favour of their preferred clientele: liberal reply guys

After one big breakdown and nine hours of staring at a wall in silence. I think I might need to go see a doctor again. Until then, I'm gonna stave off my descent towards insanity through speculative biology writing and hoping nothing sets me off again until Monday. Which is hard. I live in the UK.

My biggest struggle with this speculative stuff is trying to explain if certain vampires drink blood to replenish their reserves directly into the circulatory system, and if so if their state of undeath means type prevents complications. But then you got draenei who have copper based blood.

You know, on this website? I get punished way more for speculative evolution and anatomical diagrams than I do drawing anything actually titillating.

My anatomy charts are always blocked by this bloody website haha. I even obfuscate the genitals!

Draenei blood leaves a lot of questions.

Spent all week struggling to draw, only to find CSP reset all my pressure settings. Rude. Anyway it's too hot to do anything special, here's a lazy paintover age progression to show to a buddy -how- he got as many smooches as he did.

>has spots >moos this is a cow

As an anthropologist, I endorse this message!

"Oh this thing that isn't for me happened, maybe this person I don't like can finally shut up about asking for it" man do you hear yourselves? So hateful that even someone getting something they wanted fills you with vitriol. Go away. Yuergh!

Gazrik for @lothien.bsky.social ! @mclowes.bsky.social 's grumpy vampire gob! ☕ get a ko-fi doodle ($5 per character!) here: ko-fi.com/c/c41366a269

Decided to do a little size comparison, since I was at it. Normal sized characters? Moi? Not in this curse of flesh town, u aint

Oh woops forgot I did another outfit a couple days back. Not been super active this week

Note to self: Don't upload stuff when you're sleep deprived. Good gravy. Anyway, it's fun to speculate what kind of dog your OC would be. I feel like Gazrik was a bit of an obvious choice tbh

🍸🌴 #worldofwarcraft #warcraftart #goblin

Telling your OC lore out loud to friends is so funny because it looks cool and poignant in your head and then actively telling it makes you feel like a 3 year old holding an etch a sketch
