Took part in the GMTK jam this year as a team of three! It was very fun to design UI and get more comfortable with Aseprite and animations :) I think the game turned out quite fun! Let me know your thoughts if you try it out batelbi.itch.io/choopchoop

Support the creatives in your life as much as possible right now. Every single one I know is struggling *exceptionally* hard lately, myself included

Long time no see, I've been practicing gouache portraits in my free time for fun :)

Painted some time ago, night time car trip vibes :3

every paper i read about generative AI mentions the limited available data of 3D models as a problem for them yep i'm never going to share another 3d model to a model viewer that could be scraped or bought until AI is dead and buried

Even after asymptomatic infections. Or "mild" (which doesn't exist with Covid) infections. Health Canada updated their Covid/Long Covid information this summer and it never made it to mainstream media. If you know odds, you'll know these odds are bad. 1 in 5 infections results in LC

Covid informed folks are often branded as annoying. If you also stayed informed on Covid and knew that it is a mass disabling virus that’s made everyone high risk for strokes, cancer, vascular issues, and that causes brain damage and immune system dysfunction, you'd probably want to warn people too

Cant pin posts yet but I'll make one just in case :3 Hi, I'm Esther, a 3d environment artist currently working in the games industry! I'm specialised in handpainting but I do also love stylised PBR art 🌸 this is some of my work!

Painted my cat Neko :) 💙

Give yourself 3 months of dedicated art practice AND: - Draw 30-60 min a day minimum - Draw what you love - Surround yourself with creative people - Analyze what is working/not working in your practice - Regularly ask for feedback from peers I guarantee you'll see results. 💪

Reminder that your art doesn’t have to get you anything or have monetary value. You can just make it because you enjoy it and never post it online for engagement dopamine. It can be something that’s yours, for you. Even if you’re the only person who likes it, It can be just as important if others do

A few weeks ago I started this very WIP handpainted project :3 concept by @kairuiz.bsky.social

I uploaded more of my work for Wayfinder! I had to make a set of Farm houses for our area called "Frostmarch", both intact and destroyed. With that came some R&D for chunky hay roofs. You can see more variations of these houses in my breakdown: www.artstation.com/artwork/Gvv56B

Thank you for all the follows! I am quite busy right now but I'll check them at some point to follow back :3

Btw I found a job right after this so I'm doing well! But I'll keep posting art 🫶

Have they added DMS to bluesky?

I think it's time to come back to bluesky 👀

This has been said by more eloquent people than myself but my god do I just want to scream when I see human creativity reduced to the word "content".

Glaze 2.0 is playing so well with my work :D

Hey everyone! I'd like to announce that I am looking for work! I am open to freelance and full time opportunities, any leads regarding stylised PBR or handpainted 3D environment positions would be appreciated 💙 Portfolio: artstation.com/etkyart Email: [email protected]

I would love a return for more handpainted textures. There is so much more artistry there than just slapping on enough noises to make sure there's enough detail in every crevice in every LOD.

Come on people, social media didn’t make kids bad at reading comprehension. That frames the unacceptable as inevitable. Mass disinvestment from humanities education, from teaching nuance, critique, and deliberation did. Policy is the problem and policy is the solution. Eyes on the prize.

Day 7 of my #16daychallenge - ink #pixelart

Armours pixel arts.

At PC Gamer we've been talking about how to convey the scale of 16,000+ game devs being laid off in a year, without forgetting that number represents individual people with their own stories. This is our first attempt: 16,000 dots, alongside voices of those affected. www.pcgamer.com/the-impact-o...

Baby chick Frodo and Gandowlf in the Shire 🐥🧙‍♂️

What better way to introduce myself than to show off things I like to do! So heya! I'm Jessie and I like 80s-2000s anime and drawing buff women because I think they're really neat.

Wanted to see if the longest baguette fits on Bluesky.

From the lethal company days

VERDE💚🌿

Now that BlueSky is kicking open the doors to the world, you might want to remind your followers I exist to help the game dev community find itself. I am an account that simply follows other game devs. Search my follows for accts you might be interested in. And @ me if you want me to follow you.

Welp, the games industry got me in the end. My writing contract has been unexpectedly terminated. I am looking for work. I have experience as a Writer and Narrative Designer on indie projects, primarily branching narrative. Any and all leads are greatly appreciated

every single time

I finished a poster with Kiki and I want to show it EVERYWHERE

Give me some peace

Layoffs as they are done now, are scientifically proven to be unprofitable and IMO a symptom of the brain rot cause by, and fetishization, of 'tough decision making' and when I say scientifically proven, check out this segment from the really eye-opening write-up from HBR: hbr.org/2022/12/what...

Someone very near and dear to me was just affected by the Activision-Blizzard layoffs. If anyone knows of any open QA positions, PLEASE let me know. They're very talented and in desperate need of a new job/position.

hi, friends, my girlfriend was also laid off today. she's an amazing and wonderful person and a badass game producer, so you should hire her to be a badass game producer for your team as a bonus, we have 3 kitties, and you would get to see millions of pics of them at all times ❤️

Terrific author’s note from C K McDonnell. Automating a process is stupid if the process is the point. Also, if a book lasts into further reprints, is read maybe, hopefully, into the future, these notes will be valuable, lived history.
