using genAI and calling yourself an artist is like taking a shit and calling yourself a chef

at this point if you want to know the plot and ending of my comic you have to physically hunt me down and ask (but only after you answer me my riddles three)

After "film trilogy that dropped a critical plot point exclusively via timed Fortnite event" and "video game series whose story only makes sense if you're aware of the events of a canon pachinko machine", I feel like there are whole frontiers of user-hostile narrative design waiting to be explored.

the reason 101 dalmations looks like that is because disney incorporated xerography (ie early photocopying technology) into the animation process. rough pencils (by mostly male animators) were copied onto the cels so that disney could fire the (mostly female) inkers. remember that art can lie to you
A post from twitter with a screenshot from 101 Dalmatians. The caption says, “A lot of animation snobs will say that the sketchy linework of Disney movies in the 60s and 70s was sloppy and cheap, but man I adore it. The shifting outlines do just enough to remind you that every single frame of the movie was made by a human being.”

Some advice from a couple of years ago that I still think most creative people need to hear --
Don't put down your own work. Plenty of people want to devalue you and the things you Make. Don't help them do it.

i’m just gonna start assuming that anyone who still uses X is fash

there really hasn’t been any excuse for like two fucking years now and at this point willful ignorance is just endorsement

Elon Musk is very explicitly altering the X algorithm to show people content that aligns with his far-right worldview.

If you're still posting there and think you can win hearts and minds or something, this is what you're up against. You're never going to win a rigged game.

Anyone a fan of Lupin the 3rd?

I think this piece started when I just wanted to draw buildings and give it a little watercolor wash and then I thought of a rooftop chase scene.

BAM and now we're here, and Lupin's over there!

#3157 A helpful tutorial
A digital drawing of one of those drawing tutorials that says 'don't do this, do this.' The drawing is of an almost naked middle-aged man doing a flying kick. The 'Don't do this' one has a bunch of areas circled and a cross under it. The 'Do this' one is exactly the same but without the circles and a tick instead of a cross. The text reads 'Needlessly adding red circles will ruin your art' and a smaller bit of text at the bottom reads 'Bonus tip! Add a tick under all your art so people think you did it right.'

adrimakesart.bsky.social AdriOfTheDead @adrimakesart.bsky.social · Sep 2
Thinking of making some new adoptables to sell next month, if anyone wants to throw a few emoji combos in the replies I can try and make some designs based around those

🔆 at least 2 per combo, but no more than 4
🔆 you can post more than 1 emoji combo

the art that got me famous on twitter: now on bluesky
Digital artwork depicting an anthropomorphic character looking at himself in a mirror. The scene is extremely dim, and the lighting is a sickly green. On the left, the character in the mirror has a fearful expression as he catches blood trickling from a cut down his eye. Behind him is a bright red, demonic looking character. Looking to the right, another scare is obscured in the dark. Originally captioned “a handsome motherfucker motherfucking looking back at me” on Twitter/X.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner
