Put very, very simply: "the further things are from the camera, the closer they are to each other."
Our feature artist/tutorial today is this great page on FORESHORTENING ARMS AND HANDS, by the talented @miyuliart! Always keep in mind that the MID POINT of an object ALWAYS SHIFTS BACK when foreshortened - meaning we see FAR MORE of the volumes CLOSEST to us! #anime #manga

I'm taking December commissions now! Commissions will likely close earlier this month for me to enjoy the holidays so keep that in mind if you'd like one! Thank you for the support.

I love paying human artists and I hate gen AI 🩵

I'm not here to fight about whether or not AI is ethical (I've made my decision and I doubt I'm gonna change yours.) I'm just here to talk about what I and many other artists have been dealing with as we adjust to a new media landscape.

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

I bought a Jaws pin from Hot Topic earlier that was part of a larger order, and I've been stressing over the image they used of ripples for it and other things, when it's probably not genAI.

But yeah, I double-triple-check a lot of things now because of it.
one insidious thing about gen AI is it's not just causing us to mistrust dodgy images, it's also making us mistrust images that look perfectly normal. this is gaslighting in a very literal sense bc the technology is undermining the trust we have in our own ability to perceive reality!

I don't spend money on anything that uses AI. If they don't provide a disclaimer and I find out after the fact, I leave a negative review, and if possible, seek a refund. I also make it a point to tell as many people as possible to do the same.

This Thanksgiving we are so grateful that we get to know turkeys in ways that most people don't. Here are ten awesome things we love about turkeys! 🦃

1. Their gorgeous plumage. Most people think turkeys are just "brown" but their feathers have beautiful patterns, colors, and iridescence!
