For sure! And you can absolutely do realistic art with a voice, just might be easier to get caught up in making "a sharp image of a fuzzy concept"

Arguably, hyper-realism is more likely to be an artistic cop-out and less creative than "simple" styles that convey the artist's unique voice. (runs away)

Friendlies is a term I know from gaming - nice NPCs or creatures you might be able to talk to or interact with (or not) & might help you, but at any rate won't attack you, in contrast to hostiles that go aggro as soon as they detect you.

Someone says FPR guy posted some Noodler's-level garbage to their official SM (apparently meant to post to a personal account) awhile back. I don't think I'd heard about this & don't know where to confirm.

I asked in a stationery discord and they seconded the FPR & Kanwrite rec (they said FPR uses the same nibs as Kanwrite), and someone suggested these folks as well thegoodblue.co.uk
