I lost the framed original of this while I was going through St Pancras on Sunday Nov 2nd around 3pm. Would love if it had been found by anyone?

Snake Joker - a digital drawing/painting done in #Procreate on my iPad Pro.
I’m experimenting with plucking faces and shapes out of textured brushes.

It’s really amazing how well the studios have trained audiences to believe that “CG ruins movies,” and that if an effect is good, it must have been practical, and that’s the sign of a good movie - no CG.

Day 9 of #Inktober2025 (yes still running behind) HEAVY

The game is looking very cool!
Decided to go with 480x270 resolution for now. Feels a bit better to me. Finished setting up state machine for controlling player movement and animation. Getting rid of most of the jitter wasn't easy (still not perfect :( )).

I'm very behind with #Inktober2025 but aiming to catchup. Here is day 8, reckless.

I'm not so happy with this drawing. Sometimes art doesn't work out like it appears in your head.

Over the last few weeks I've used Gemini AI and Deepseek to ask how to do things in DaVinci Resolve, Blender, Unity & the Affinity Suite.

An utter waste of time & energy. Sick of the hallucination. I'm going back to ordinary net search and watching real people explain things on YouTube and Reddit.
