A couple of days ago, I posted a few photos from my walk from Arncliffe in Littondale. This was a linocut print I made of the view from the other side of the valley, looking towards the footpath on Cogar Scar.

A close up crop of a portrait I have been working on in December. I really enjoyed playing with the contrasting blue and orange hues.

Super enjoying Life-Man
Very sweet slice of life manga about a hero who looks out for people in his town in little ways that are actually massive, and tries real hard to do self-care
Good man yourself, Life-Man

Did a simple thread with some examples of how you may want to consider framing and cropping your renders to get a lot more out of your work if yea interested in that kind of thing.
3d artist you don’t need to stick to the video sizes that are default, why do landscape when portrait will work better, why do wide when you have loads of empty dead space making your work smaller on screen? Make them square and make your work the focus.

First CES panel. Intuit CMO Thomas Ranese is proud of his company's integration with OpenAI, which involves giving AI read/write access to tax data. Since prompt injection attacks are unavoidable, I asked him who will be liable when customer data is exposed: Intuit, OpenAI, etc?
He had no idea.
