The Winx project is coming along a bit faster, but I'm not enjoying it because Mythix in 3D in U G L Y
At least they had Sirenix in 2D... I've tried to improve their designs somewhat, but it's like putting lipstick on a pig.

Funko admits “substantial doubt” it can continue as a going concern amid crashing sales and mounting debt.
The Pop! maker warns of potential loan defaults without fresh funding or a buyout, after a 14% sales drop and $250M in obligations.

Sigh... I'll probably be shelving my hoyoverse project due to recent events. Just for now.
I've been planning on taking a break because I've scrapped a few drawings already.
I'm mostly frustrated because this is half a year I'll never get back.

i genuinely sometimes wonder if some people are aware the 'bad ai' isn't just chat gpt and ai art.
because they'll preach about gen ai being bad but then turn around and use those shitty ai filters or chat bots 🥀

Hoyoverse project is stalling again, seems I can't go a day without getting a migraine or procrastinating due to not being able to find background noise / general laziness, etc.

If you're someone who is still into HP, but not keeping it to yourself like the most embarrassing secret ever - or talking about your struggle to overcome your nostalgia for antisemitic, racist, fat-phobic books, by a fascist terf - Fuck you.
Your need to center your nostalgia has likely killed me.

Part of me wonders how mihoyo is gonna handle the release of Honkai Nexus Amina considering Nintendo's patent... Then again, I'm not a copyright lawyer and the patent may not apply to China.
Maybe it's fine because it was made before they applied for it? Idk

Friendly reminder that Master Chief's backstory was that he was abducted from his home as a child, replaced with a clone, and effectively groomed into a child soldier. Using him as ICE propoganda isn't a smart move on their part, but it's sure as hell a fitting one.

Regarding GameStop and Halo - My local mall's GameStop sells anime figures and used manga, so looks like I'm gonna have to start looking elsewhere, preferably local... I only recently got into Halo, so I'm not mad, just disappointed.

I said I won't post sketches anymore, but I don't know if I have the motivation to finish this before Halloween.

When a reader loves a story so much they're inspired to make art about it, no matter their artistic skill, it's a beautiful thing. As an author, if I found out a reader made AI fan art of my characters I'd feel insulted. AI generated fan art is an abomination. Fuck off with that & keep fucking off!

I want genAI to die. I want this AI trend to die. I want features like photo filters to go back to being called what they are and not AI. I want real art to feel valuable and real artists to be valued. I want photography and filmmaking and art and design and I want voice acting and editing. Not bots

Welp, today I learned that in Canada, you can't turn off Amber Alerts on mobile for some reason... Yet you can disable threats to life, in the country known for its devastating wildfires!
Looks like I'll just have to start a petition.

So... Regarding Mihoyo.
I have been working on a hoyoverse project since May, but it's been stalling recently.
I know @iwillmikumikuyou.bsky.social has dug a little deeper into this, and there's anything the last couple months have taught me,

I forgot to mention it in this post, but this was my first time drawing Trip, and I tried it in the modern style.
I've never played Sonic Superstars and don't plan on ever doing so.

Sorry for no new art recently, things have just been terrible these last few months, with one thing after another.
I didn't use a ruler for her staff, which is why it's misaligned. My bad :/

Rules for thee but not for Elon Musk and Sam Altman.
ohhhh it is ironic as fuck how conservative billionaires want to censor sex workers and pornography but they’ll turn around and go “omg we’re going to put erotica on ChatGPT!” me thinks it was more than just censorship, they also want to hoard money and ruin the lives of more creatives

The Salvation Army exists to convert you
And if they cannot convert you, they will not lift a finger to save you
Do not support those whose “charity“ comes with conditions

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.
