Some know me as Jamesman or JamesTheReggie; whatever the case I came to BlueSky awhile ago to get away from the toxic waste dump we used to call twitter.

I draw a mix of original & fanart and while my output is a bit slower than I'd like it to be; I don't intend on stopping anytime soon!
That fat bum with the scraggy hair who's talking with his friends on his PC? Yeah that's me ... or at least how I see myself as. I'm nowhere near as nicely illustrated in person so; hope y'all won't mind that you'll only ever see me this way. All the major players from my SNOUP Project; "Boltaire". From left to right there's Aquelia, Ignus, Misty, Noctus, Reine, Gustav, Leonite, Vitasha, "Father", "Mother" and the titular Boltaire himself. Elephant Mario from Super Mario Bros. Wonder; swatting a Goomba while carrying Geno & Mallow from Super Mario RPG on his back. This was drawn sometime after the Nintendo Direct that first announced these two games. An old Color Wheel Challenge I took part in. In order: Knuckles + Cappy (Red), Bandana Waddle Dee (Orange), Chocobo (Yellow), Wart + Fred the Frog (Green), Inky (Cyan), Richter Belmont (Blue), Rayman (Purple) and Claire Redfield (Pink).

Bsky can be hard for people to get started on because it doesn't spoon feed you engaging rage bait and it's entirely what you make it.

Take control of what you're seeing. Cultivate your feeds. Remember when it gets "boring" that's okay because then you sign off and do better things with your time.

🦋 Welcome to Buesky! 🦋
It's long past time to leave the Nazi bar, and you'll have a much better time here. I updated this guide due to the influx of users fleeing Grok's new AI bullshit. Share widely for all the newcomers!
Tips: moving from Xitter to Bsky Before you start following people, fill out your profile! Bio, PFP, banner, and post at least 5 to 10 things. Just reuse your top 10 banger tweets—recycling is encouraged! This way, people will know you aren’t a bot, will see what you are about, and might follow back. Turn off NSFW filters in Settings > Moderation > Enable Adult Contentand at the bottom on Settings > Moderation > Bluesky Mod Service Find your friends from the hellsite using Sky-Follower-Bridge.devNot perfect, but it will find the majority of the people you were following.Beware of fake tools that ask for money! Follow a few feeds related to your interests. In bsky you choose what kind of content you want to see. You can pin feeds (into tabs) to the top of your timeline, and you always have access to the Following feed which shows nothing but who you choose to follow. Block often. Don’t interact with trolls. Don’t quote dunk, comment, nothing. Let them rot in silence, take away their oxygen and they’ll asphixiate. This is the Bsky way. Turn off language filters in Settings > Languages > Content Languages Or you won’t see posts from anyone in Japan, Germany, etc, in your feeds, even if they only post a cool image with no text. Weird, but trust me on this one. Uncheck all to see all posts. Fuck content scrapers. Do not let that trash overwhelm this site, do not share their stolen content. You can block them all with two clicks by going to joabaldwin.com/scrapers and on the top-right clicking on Subscribe > Block Accounts (I know, “Subscribe” is an odd thing to name it, but that’s how block lists work). Use alt text to make images accessible. Helps for translations, readability, findability, and users with slow internet. Turn on Settings > Accessibility > Require alt text before posting It takes time to rebuild, but the best time to do it is right now. Use your last tweets to tell everyone to move, then stop posting. Twitter is a Nazi/AI/bot/crypto cesspit.

#BoltaireArt #OC #SNOUP
Not exactly holiday related but I recently made drawings for Vio & Crystie; two side characters who occasionally aid Boltaire. Also included some older drawings showing how far they've come since I started drawing them.

(More details about 'em can be found in Alt. Text)
Vio is a Silver-Blooded Light Crystali aiding Father in the Celestial War. Despite acting as a jack of all trades; he's a lover of life and a passionate music man who wishes he could get his whole band back together. Crystie & Gustav already make up 2 of the 3 bandmates, but the third is a Gold-Blooded Crystali who currently serves Mother in the war. (Fun fact: The microphone was kind of a random add-on since this was drawn just to get a feel back for drawing Vio. Given his inspiration it makes sense now, but next time I give him a mic I'll make it flashier than this. xD) Crystie is a Silver-Blooded Ice Crystali aiding Father in the Celestial War. Like Ignus she was created with a flaw in her body; one that makes it very cold to the touch with no real way to control it. This led to her living most her life as an introvert, but she's trying to open herself up more with her comrades. Prior to the war she was even part of Vio's band as a bass guitarist. Art of Vio drawn around 2022, showing him in a Navigator's Jacket and letting out some of his power over light. Funfact: His design was partially inspired by Michael Jackson. Artwork of Crystie ranging from the mid 2010s to around 2020 when I last drew her. She was always meant to be one of the taller crystali but she ended up looking like a string bean overtime. xD;;

Users are noticing Twitter/X has added a Grok-powered AI image editor that lets anyone edit any image on the platform, including other people’s artwork using text prompts.

Artists warn there’s no opt-out or consent, raising concerns over unauthorized edits and misuse.

Hope y'all have a swell Christmas! I sadly don't have the time or energy to make a new drawing to celebrate, but here's some older drawings I've done based around the Holidays ~
Don't remember when I made this one, but it was a multi-paneled christmas gift featuring characters made by my friends and I (save for Luigi, of course). An early version of Vitasha & Gustav from Boltaire can be found here. Gustav & Ignus enjoyed themselves a hearty serving of eggnog back in 2017. Back in 2018 I drew this one for my friend & creative partner, Tara. Here; Boltaire exchanges gifts with Letticus, a character from an unrelated SNOUP project called "A Path of Ash & Blossoms". Even if I don't work on A Pig called Princess anymore; this christmas-themed drawing from 2020 is still my favorite. The leading lady; Princess Jessica, is carrying a bag of stolen goods while a pair of thieves chase after her. Meanwhile the crimson-haired knight; Sir Jonathan, is defending the bag from incoming threats, and the calf-tailed knight; Lance, is returning the presents to their original owners with the help of his fairy friend; Pippy.

The legal issues surrounding Ms. Pac-Man can be traced back to the 2000 Ms. Pac-Man / Galaga "Class of 1981" reunion cabinet

GCC saw this as breaching their original agreements with Namco, so an arbitration was set between 2002-2007 that covered Ms. Pac-Man's future releases.

28 years ago today Mega Man Legends released in Japan as Rock Man Dash on the PS1. Kind of funny how it released almost 10 years to the day of Mega Man 1 on the NES.

in 2027 it will turn 30 maybe @capcomusa.com will announce something then, like a collection who knows.

Wasn't thinking I'd make anymore fanart for Ed but; with the sudden release of his game on the Nintendo Classics lineup (and Rayman 2 by extension); figured it wouldn't hurt to pump one more out.

... surely he'll be fine after seeing THAT part of the game, right?
Ed from Tonic Trouble, playing on a device that's a slight parody of the Nintendo Switch console. The numbers on the speech bubble is a reference to Rayman 2: The Great Escape; based on when the total amount of Yellow Lums goes down from 1000 to 999 after one of them gets eaten by the main antagonist, Razorbeard.

We wanted to share an update on the release timing of #TheBigCatch.

Thanks for your patience. We'll have more to share in the new year. 🎣
For everyone who's been patiently waiting for The Big Catch, we're sorry to share some disappointing news: it won't be making its 2025 release. This likely won't come as a big surprise to people who have been following the game closely, but it simply isn't ready yet. Things are shaping up to be really special, and we want to give this game the time it deserves. All we can ask for is your understanding and trust. We're doing all that we can to make sure The Big Catch is in your hands in 2026 – and that it lives up to our expectations (and yours too). We can't wait for you to finally play the game – as always, when it's ready.
