I've been working 100% in Linux for the last 4 months if you're wondering how this experiment turned out.
This has been my last few days, so some notes if you're going on a Linux+CSP journey:
- Install the latest version of Wine! The one in your distro provides is likely outdated, check here to install it correctly: gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/...

Everybody is saying that you should hire me to absolutely nail the look of your characters in 2026
Hey!
Do you need a highly technical character artist with almost 15 years of individual contributor and leadership experience? Looking for someone to wrangle your shaders? Or perhaps you need a person to assemble your character art pipeline?
That's me!

"people can still download your art from bsky and feed it into AI" if gamer behavior has taught me anything, just one extra button press is more than enough to annoy a MASSIVE amount of people into not making the effort

"This doesn't affect you because you animate, so you are fine."
No. This sucks and this is really dangerous.
In solidarity with all artists, Please be cautious.
I know many will remain on Twitter because they have mostly everything here but be aware this time it's worse than the other times.

Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

they didn't need AI to make Silksong, it just needed some deeply insane guys to have a blank check for living expenses until their next thing was done, I think we should try doing more of that instead

I keep seeing that “Gen Z Republicans, let’s ask them what’s up” thing going around and honestly I remember a bunch of kids my age having those beliefs when I was younger, too. It’s not some new thing. Regressive ideas get taught and reinforced all the time.

I spoke to a dozen professional concept artists working in games about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs easier, even if it's just used in "very early ideation stages."
Zero said "yes." Most said it made their job harder.
I learnt a lot about concept artists. You should too!
