This October, as part of my #FinalFantasyIX 25th anniversary celebrations, I'm doing #FFIX themed daily sketches!
I'll be posting them on all socials under the tag #IXtober - anyone else doing FFIX creative works is absolutely free to use it for themselves. ❤️

Absolutely fucking gutted, all my FFVIII pins have arrived and the artwork is back-to-front on all of them. It's my fault too, so there's absolutely nothing I can do about it. £300 down the drain on stock I'm probably going to have to sell at a massive discount. ;;

There are few things that make me as happy as "Enjoy Yourself" at the end of Hootenanny. ❤️

all bluesky not having an algorithm means is that all the adhd hyperfocus sickness of the mind posters finally don't get deboosted anymore; free of our shackles we can force everyone to read 50000 posts about blorbo a day every day
could be wrong but I think people took bluesky not having an algorithm to mean you can just post whenever and run and accumulate however many likes you believe you deserve

but no, you still gotta engage with others and be a part of the community

MERRY CRIMMIS!
Hope everyone has an excellent day, whether you celebrate or have other plans. ❤️
This year's gift to my supporters is a sneak peek at the first round of merch I'm creating for Kupocon Megapom (and my shop afterwards). 👀

This is basically a whole sketch commission for £10 or less, so if you're an FFIX fan, it's a heck of a deal!
Any and all subscriptions and sales will be helping a disabled artist have a stable monthly income too. ❤️

James Baxter is one of the only living animators on planet earth that could make a joke about squash and stretch/follow-through animation this good. I lost my shit at the extreme smear bit when Gumball turns around.

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier.

Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder.

Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder
“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” said one artist.

"concept artists can experiment with AI to make their lives easi-"

wrong

I smack you with Claire Hummel's immaculate and detailed understanding of costume design, which she got by studying historical references, which made her strong, which you will not become by relying on AI

get good

Digitally, creators are always their own best marketing in today's information climate. After that, it is creators sharing work by other creators, followed by journalists championing the best stuff they have read. In the flesh it is comic shops/bookstores and their employees.
How the hell does anyone hear about new comics? Like I feel I only know about new book releases because artists talk about them here or I see them at my LCS. I don't surf reddit and I don't pick up news anywhere else, really

Emergency t-shirt test run from www.tshirtstudio.com has arrived!
Thoughts and pictures below. :D

No takers yet, but this is basically a mini commission for £5-£10, an absolute steal!
Please share the OP and hopefully I can get some new orders or new subscribers on board by Christmas. 🙏❤️

Was getting worried about the FFVIII pin order, as I hadn't heard anything since I sent the artwork on Thursday - not even the usual auto-reply.
Sent a catch-up message just now and apparently my artwork email had ended up in their spam folder, so bloody good job I asked. 💀

Okay, think I've found a solution. It's DTG print instead of screen, but I can't afford to be fussy at this point. 😅
I've made a small restock order to test them out and will report back.
Urgently looking for a UK based shirt printer, as my usual guys are relocating and unavailable for a while. 😭
Requirements:
- low minimum order
- £10 or less per unit (not Gildan)
- prices available on their website (don't want to have to ask for quotes)

Screen print preferred, but digital is fine.

We got a nice, new fishing rod toy to give our cat on Christmas morning and she is currently playing with... an allen key.

FFVIII pin designs have been sent for production! If you were worried about them running out at Megapom, please don't. Zap were doing a "double your order for free" deal, which means I've got 25 of each on the way. 😂
December 12, 2025 at 12:32 PM
SUCCESS!
Though 20 boosters and not a single other Emet or Ardyn card to be found. I think I used up all my luck on this one. 😂
December 10, 2025 at 4:31 PM
Oooooh I've just had a horrible cosplay idea for Megapom and there might just be enough time to do it. XD
December 7, 2025 at 9:02 PM
Btw, for anyone who was interested, FFVIII pin creation is in full swing. 👀

I didn't realise just how much of a break I needed from art until I realised a month had passed and I'd done absolutely none. :v
