Another quick drawing of my delta green character for a warm up/practice! This game is scheduled to start soon so expect more of her in the future 🪲
She's a forensic entomologist and a severe agoraphobe, a perfect combination for seeing the horrors
An older woman with graying hair and glasses. She's dressed in a coat over a sweater and chelsea boots. There's an illustration of an insect behind her and a speech bubble reading "Tu me prends pour une valise?"

the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now
Cartoon meme of Sonic the Hedgehog (from Archie Comics' Sonic the Hedgehog comic book series, Jan 1994) lying down and looking smugly at the camera with a speech bubble that reads: “I want bad art made slowly by real people AND I'M NOT KIDDING”

Well put by @drrachelbarr.bsky.social
cinema_nasties 1d Al defenders are so embarrassing j.paulmonter 2h All you are saying is that you want to gatekeep creativity. That's not good. drachelbarr & 20h • •• Neuroscientist here... creativity is a process. A process. A FUCKING PROCESS. Not an output. Nobody is gatekeeping the process - Al simply invites you to skip to the end, to the output. Which, as mentioned, is not creativity. Nobody cares if the output is aesthetically pleasing, because the process, the act itself, the limitation of a single human mind and the resulting creations that capture that one single inimitable human experience... is what makes a creation worth paying attention

Piece by piece I’m working on something. This is mostly temp art I did but a glimpse at my recent game project :)
A screenshot of a pixel RPG. It’s a living room and kitchen with a character standing by the door.

Happy Frankenstein Day! Felt like winding down with some fan art of @realgdt.bsky.social’s flick, which released today on Netflix but is also still in theaters, which is where I recommend seeing it.

Loved this film.

Getting into the fall spirit with some concept art for a new project I'm working on featuring an old character.

A strange postal worker takes a break in an ordinary place.

Brahms & Alix. Two people from a potential webcomic and my attempt to do more comic-styled work.

#art #originalcharacters #ocart #alien #monster #MLM
Two men floating in space. One is alien looking with a plated tail in place of legs and another set of arms. He has purple antennae, purple skin and green hair. He is significantly larger than the other man who appears fully human with a robotic limb, medium skin, dark hair and comfortable clothing.
