Concept art/illustration for a suit of armor of the Order of the Fly. It is a heavily ridged and fluted harness of gothic plate armor with a skirt of catshead scales and a foot joust helmet elongated into a barbed bloody stinger. The back of the armor feature two sets of pauldrons, each bearing a pair of segmented bug wings made of the same material as the armor, featuring the same ridges and fluting as well as detailed openwork taken from Polish huszar helmets. The suit of armor is bare metal with a strong brown patina and blood stains; it is pierced with holes as if it had gone porous on its edges, with some metallic growths shaped like feathers sprouting in various places.

Yesterday I stumbled into this gorgeous b/w piece... and ended up coloring it with the "excuse" of trying out some new dry brushes 😅

Thank you kindly @igorgrouper.bsky.social for sharing this!

Art vs Artist 2025

Thanks to everyone who's ever looked at one of my drawings this year.💚
I had my first mass layoffs experience in April, I'm thankful that I somehow got hired to draw armored people again by new and lovely clients.🗡️
Also f*ck AI. Cheers! ✨

The thing thats so insidious about using AI this way is that one of the main ways artists get hired are studios looking for art references and they find us and reach out.

This is removing a major avenue to get work if they can just generate nameless derivations of our ideas.
Swen Vincke @LarAtLarian Holy fuck guys we’re not "pushing hard" for or replacing concept artists with AI. We have a team of 72 artists of which 23 are concept artists and we are hiring more. The art they create is original and I’m very proud of what they do. I was asked explicitly about concept art and our use of Gen AI. I answered that we use it to explore things. I didn’t say we use it to develop concept art. The artists do that. And they are indeed world class artists. We use AI tools to explore references, just like we use google and art books. At the very early ideation stages we use it as a rough outline for composition which we replace with original concept art. There is no comparison. I talked about how we use ML here if you would like to know more: https://gamespot.com/articles/baldurs-gate-3-dev-embraces-machine-learning-for-tasks-that-nobody-wants-to-do/1100-6531123/ We've hired creatives for their talent, not for their ability to do what a machine suggests, but they can experiment with these tools to make their lives easier.

#SaveSpeech

We only have about a week before most legislators go out for a holiday recess, so i recommend giving your reps a call to oppose bad internet bills!

I've included a script i adapted from one initially written by FFtF

www.congress.gov/members/find...

www.badinternetbills.com
Hi there, My name is (your name) and I am calling to oppose multiple harmful internet bills that are moving through Congress right now. I oppose all bills that mandate online ID checks, infringe upon our constitutional right to free speech on the internet, enable government policing of online resources, and threaten end-to-end encryption. If you truly care about young people’s experience on the internet, you should pass comprehensive data privacy legislation and oppose any bill that forces Internet users to submit to ID checks or would censor the internet, like the SCREEN Act, App Store Accountability Act, and KOSA additionally, I want to advocate for section 230, which I have seen multiple legislators call for repealing. Section 230 is integral to a free and open internet, and repealing it would destroy the internet as we know it and countless livelihoods. I do not want to see section 230 repealed, I want to see it protected. [optional] here is a list of bills that i believe must be opposed due to either increasing censorship, or surveillance: The Kids Online Safety Act SCREEN Act App Store Accountability Act Stop CSAM act of 2025 Sammy's law RESET Act GAMING Act Safe Messaging for Kids Act Parents Over Platforms Act
