Somehow Einar's music always manages to tap directly into the deepest creases of my brain. I cannot wait for this album!

First drawing of 2026 is my manga page where Hades protects my Azem Zoe with his second form of transformation. By then he was not yet carrying all his dead brethren's hope and will, so his wings have no masks on them yet. By then, those wings are for protection, not destruction. #EmetSelch #AzemZoe

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. ;;

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

Cropped previews of some of the merch I'm working on for Kupocon Megapom in February. From left to right: - Pin designs featuring Squall Leonhart, Rinoa Heartily and Angelo the dog from Final Fantasy VIII (part of a set of 12, the rest are viewable to paid supporters). - Crop of a monochrome, dark red shirt design featuring both healer/ ancient and daemon/ present day Ardyn Izunia from Final Fantasy XV. - Crop of an in-progress sketch for a shirt design featuring all boss forms of Ultimecia from Final Fantasy VIII. - Panel with logo/ text that reads; "Ryuuza.

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

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
Screenshot of a Facebook text post. It reads: "I used T-Shirt Studio based in Swindon, as they seemed to have the best availability and also best reviews for both quality and customer service, out of my shortlist. - For FotL 150 shirts, it came out at about £11 per unit for under 15 shirts and because it's DTG printing, there's no minimum order. They do have more budget options, but I went with "better the devil you know". XD - No digital proof, but there's an onsite designer tool, so wasn't really needed. - First feel is that the print quality is decent! As I'd expect from digital, it has very crisp lines. Not as nice feeling as screen print, but it's a good halfway point between that and vinyl (which tends to feel quite plasticky). Probably still wouldn't risk tumble drying though. - Colour match is good too, especially given that I uploaded transparent PNGs. - Overall, good impressions for a first run! I ordered them on Sunday evening with the express service at an extra £14, which was well worth it to get them before Christmas."

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. 🙏❤️
