Human Artists! Use one piece to convince people to follow you! ...maybe this one🦉

it's my birthday today! here's some art i'm pretty fond of from this year ◡̈

can’t believe this year started with me breaking my dominant hand, and it still turned out to be my most productive year ever #artsummary

Art vs Artist 2025 Personal art edition: The year of learning markers, drawing more horse art and LARP characters with faces based on mine. #art #ArtSummary

My professional artists peers! We got a survey request! Researchers at the University of Carnegie Mellon is doing a research to see how generative Al has (or has not) impacted your work and/or sentiments in the industry. Folks in creative fields only, please consider filling this out 👇

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...

"concept artists can experiment with AI to make their lives easi-" wrong I smack you with Claire Hummel's immaculate and detailed understanding of costume design, which she got by studying historical references, which made her strong, which you will not become by relying on AI get good

This. Concept artists are good at finding references because we have deep knowledge of many areas. I take reference photos on my vacation because being an artist makes me more observant of the world. Not granting that time and generating reference is still robbing the artist and the viewers of depth

Dead in the industry if you're not up to date with your tech? How about you'll be dead if your customers don't want to buy them? This industry needs well made games, not latest tech. And if AI becomes the golden egg what stops you from only adopting it then.

This is the approach CEOs want in normalizing use of AI to actually replace artists. "Oh it's just placeholder", tomorrow it will be "just a junior artist" and then "it's normal all art and writing is AI"

Throwback to that one time I GMed a Call of Cthulhu one-shot based on the Stonehearst Asylum movie. My two players played chaotic doctor and a tough nurse. #art #ttrpg #CallOfCthulhu #OCsky

I'm happy to announce that I'll be illustrating Brandon Sanderson's newest secret project, "The Fires of December!" I'm working with the wonderful folks at Dragonsteel to illustrate this beautifully crafted story, and we look forward to sharing it next year! #thefiresofdecember

"I didn’t say we use it to develop concept art" just to make reference, get ideas from and outline composition lmao just 90% of what concept is🤣

Travelling by train when it's dark out is an experience. It feels like a simulation, with the interior of the train being a loading screen between levels

If you're using AI to generate "concept art" and then creating an in-game asset based on what the AI plagiarizes, you're using an AI generated asset.

I saw a centaur on an artwork yesterday and thought randomly this is a good idea for a cooldown. Let it by also a proof that I'm not smooth and clean when sketching in digital #art #fantasy #centaur

The chair of the Third Office is not a position authority. Ministers take turns carrying this responsibility – Arlena's has simply lasted longer than most people's. (Trying to drag this character kicking and screaming into the daylight but in the end I'm the one doing the kicking and screaming)

User succubusboyfriend on tumblr has made a poseable horse doll for all artists' needs! While I still recommend referencing and understanding actual horses, these bases can be a shortcut for your comics and animation! www.tumblr.com/micahseacole...

One more day left! We're nearing 7 million euro, can we make it? #boardgames #TheWitcher gamefound.com/pl/projects/...

A little commission for @paratonia.bsky.social This time I had to indulge in Ingmar's perfect side profile. He's so pleasant to draw! #art #digitalart #OCsky #commission I still have space for these quick comms if you're willing to pay 25 dollars or more (or equivalent) to a fundraiser!

He has a new genius idea how to get richer, more powerful and relevant again. It will not work. #OCsky #art Tristan is originally created for LARP by Zoozamazoo on insta, this version has been adopted into an AU where he doesn't die and spends 19 years in prison instead. He's... out of the loop

Year of the Snake Glad I finished before 2025 ended! #illustration #zodiac

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

We can’t afford a $1M trailer slot 😔 But reposts on Bluesky cost $0 - and they really help tiny teams like ours ❤️ If cozy medieval creativity is your thing, here’s our Scriptorium trailer!

I absolutely adore this piece, and the other similar as well. It's so lighthearted, so happy and hopeful while being just these three panels with a bow and a fluster.

I know everyone will be very mad and depressed now after Disney news. But fuck them. Fuck that and every fucker talking about inevitable AI. They might scorch every creative industry. If they want me to not draw they have to break my arms and gouge me eyes out.

Please keep creating art. Every day of the past 5 years has felt like a swift kick but we need real creation more than ever for morale and humanity

Witcher Legacy art showoff! Since we show so much in the campaign we got green light to share the pieces we're most proud of in our portfolios! www.artstation.com/artwork/y4Y9yK

I love end of year because of summaries, but before I post artistic ones, here's my #LARP summary for this year! Five events, but many more roles thanks to being an NPC on two of them. Two of my new favourite characters of all time, and a lot of diversity in general!

Check it out and get your own werewolf merch! I look at my print every morning and love it

The best mean feeling in the world is suggesting a certain kind of a man in an online discussion that they're being emotional.

Okay let's do this! At least 25$ or equivalent for a sketch portrait. I suggest fundraisers of this group: www.instagram.com/thesameerpro... but I will take other vetted ones! Remember to contact me first to know I still have slots! DM or mail [email protected]

I love talking! Ask me!

It's in the confidence! A bigger, faster gesture that utilises an arm more than just a wrist will be less shaky than a slow and careful one.

There are still good people out there doing a good job fighting the AI disease with science

I love talking! Ask me!

#PudgyHorse Lascaux Tribute 2. A companion piece to the first, following one of the other cave horses with a darker colour morph. Again, painted with pigments made by Mary Sanche from Cretaceous rocks from the Albertan badlands. From 2020. #ArtAdventCalendar

Delburrito and Friend I’m definitely going to go back and add a background to this at some point, but I’m not really into a painting mood right now. #art #digitalart #fanart #disney #morph #delbertdoppler #treasureplanet #sketch #illustration
