When I'm brimming with feelings I can't find the right words for, sometimes all I can manage is a picture. Love and strength to Minnesota in this heartbreaking time.

Will be exhibiting at Wonder Festival for the first time! At booth 3-16-05 along with Shin Tanabe and James Marsano. I designed and sculpted this figure of DODONGO from episode 12 of the original Ultraman television series.

This week's SCBWI conference has been a good kick in the pants. New art, dummies dummies dummies, and a pale complexion that betrays how many hours I've been glued to my studio desk.

See you there??

Thread: As a translator myself, I echo everything Aliette says. I have also noticed longterm customers suddenly no longer calling, because somewhere there is a machine translation system that is cheaper, even if its output is worse.
Deep breath
Ok I'm going to try and stay calm
But I'll point out that AI translation is literally causing translators to be fired (see the whole Harlequin line in France)

Brown Costume Wolverine.

This is the first Wolverine I've ever gotten to sculpt! An all-new figure minus the hands.

1/3 Massive efforts are being done to ensure states do not regulate GenAI.

Regulations like CA’s AB-412. A transparency bill that terrifies Big Tech!

On Dec. 8th, there is a major hearing on this bill.

We need as many folks to show up! Come join in support of creatives!

Maybe my favorite thing I've ever made. I worked with X-Plus to create this Digimon and Godzilla collaboration figure, Wargreymon: G-Erosion Mode, for the Toho Daikaiju Series!

Mickey and Minnie Snowglobe. The overall height to the top of the dome is around 4".

This piece is apparently called the "Santa Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse Fantasyland Castle Holiday Snowglobe", which is very long but kind of fun to try and say as fast as possible.

I've had a few 'what do you do' convs recently, and everyone on hearing I'm an author comes out with "so how do you come up with ideas?", just like every book or movie about a writer has them staring numbly into space because they don't have an idea for the next book. And look, that is Not It.

1-866-952-4456 to tell Netflix that in no way do you want Elon fucking Musk determining what you watch.

I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.
1. Led by Elon Musk, the far-right has exploded in a campaign to get Netflix to remove shows with queer and trans characters.

If Netflix capitulates to their demands, an already strained market for LGBTQ+ animators might become even more dire.

My gushier post is over on IG, but I won a Hugo last night. Thanks to everyone who has supported me over the years, it means a lot. I've always loved books, and I still can't believe how lucky I am to I get to make covers. 🚀
