Hello new folks. I'm trying to not be as active here as it fucks with my head. But I'm very active on patreon and I stream often over at twitch. I also have a podcast! 🖼️ jawsstone.com ✉️ [email protected] 👛 patreon.com/only_jaws 📺 www.twitch.tv/jaws_stone 🎙️ @theartofpod.bsky.social

We don’t need AI to “be creative” for us; we need a world in which there is time and space to wonder, joke and play with words. To fuck around with color and texture, to experiment with an intriguing sound, without the need to immediately convert process and artifact into engagement to stay solvent.

Hey #PortfolioDay! I'm Margarita, fantasy artist in love with dark fairytales and folklore. I'm always looking for new fun projects and opportunities in TTRPG, TCG and books. I'd also love to paint for WotC someday! 🤞 🔹 www.margawart.com 🔹 [email protected] #art #ttrpg #fantasy

Here's what I painted during @abigbat.bsky.social's mentorship! A skeletal birb friend 💚 I learned a lot and had the bestest time, I highly recommend it! #art #fantasyart #illustration

First art of 2025 is here! 🎉💚 (technically started this back in December but who cares woohoo it's finally finished) #art #ttrpg #oc

"Offerings", new personal illustration 🌿 After a few months full of client work/working on my portfolio, I needed to paint something just for myself. So this was the perfect opportunity to try and go back to my creative roots, read a ton of folk tales and summon all the Slavic vibes! #art #fantasy

I have always said it, I will continue to say it, we are limiting the productive potential of millions of freaks by demanding they earn a wage to survive instead of enabling them to do whatever thing their brain is broken for

1/5 Seeing some tech/ai slop accounts online claiming that AI has always been used in games, pretending GenAi is a part of that, when its absolutely not. Yes, AI has always been a part of games in: NPC behaviors, Data Mining, PCG’s (Procedural Content Generation) etc All different from GenAi!

Had to cheat a bit with some sketches and wips but I DID IT!! In 2026 I hope to get 200% weirder with my personal work #artsummary #artsummary2025 #artsky

I've never been fueled by spite in my life (just not how I'm built, tho it sounds fucking useful). But seeing all of my favorite worlds and creative projects being tainted by the slop machine just makes me all the more invested in my own stories, my own art.

The invitation💛

The dangers of magic 💙 (MTG inspired personal piece)

could all of my favorite game studios please stop being dummies

If Owlcat used genAI for The Expanse game I am going to be so pissed but also it's so fucking ironic because the protomolecule is literally millions of humans bodies and minds stolen and repurposed to create something new and everyone (wrongly) thinks they can use it for their own purpose

Art summary 2025! Thank you all for your support throughout the year!! #artsummary

"The Flayed Man" One last personal piece before the year ends. Pretty happy with how this came out. Its close to what I envisioned in my head which is rare. Thought the clouds would be the hardest part but actually the snakes on the frame were what really kicked my butt.

Thank you so much for the tag, Shaun! 🚂 Art Train 🚂 ~ I'm also sharing a few painted for DH Core. Can't wait to show my work for Hope & Fear! 😊 Share four pieces, tag four artists 🎨 @evelynepark.bsky.social @margawart.bsky.social @pbmoj.bsky.social @cristianaleone.com

In the spirit of celebrating human made concept art I'm gonna start sharing some of the stuff I'm doing for my personal story Oraculus 🌙 these were my very first sketches and bashes, before I had any concrete sense of art direction other than that I wanted them to be roughly inspired by birds 🦚🦢

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier. Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder. thisweekinvideogames.com/feature/conc...

working on a story hehe...

"we USE ai, but our game wont CONTAIN it" is a clarification that no one has ever cared about & now CEOs are using it as a wedge to get their foot in the door as a part of a long term plan into normalizing AI, just like how 'it's just placeholder' was used with E33. dont cede even an inch of ground

To quote @lukeplunkett.com :

It's almost 2026, at this point in time everyone in the industry knows what GenAi is and where it came from. It doesn't matter what you use it for, even if it's "just for references" (which also?? 🤡). If you value human craft you should avoid it like the plague, it's that simple.

I don't know why the idea of developing concept art with AI is somehow meant to convince us that AI isn't replacing creative professions, when concept art is one of the single most creative and imaginative parts of the entire development process.

I'm so tired of the artist's profession being treated as something unimportant and easily replaceable. “We're just using genAI for concept art, trust me, it'll be live actors!” I mean, yeah, artists aren't really people, so we shouldn't pay them or respect what they do... sigh

consider my feedback: i loved working at @larianstudios.com until AI. reconsider and change your direction, like, yesterday. show your employees some respect. they are world-class & do not need AI assistance to come up with amazing ideas.

longest sigh in human history
