I am looking for 2-4 days a week work on games projects as a VFX or environment artist.
I wear other hats that might be useful too, like level design & art direction. I'm also fairly technical.
I have indie rates too!

This game by @bering.bsky.social is having trouble finding it's audience (I reckon it will closer to Xmas) and I think it looks really well made?
Can we help an indie out and get it infront of the right people?
Which streamers and indie game fans might like this?

A close pal of Farage and the former leader of Reform in Wales, Nathan Gill has been convicted of accepting pro-Kremlin bribes.
A huge story that goes way beyond bribery, the BBC don't even have it on their front page. Quite the "editorial choice".

Far as I can tell, Robert Redford was:
* successful at everything he tried
* genuinely intelligent & insightful
* desired by women
* envied by men
* an absolute mensch to everyone he dealt with
* a tireless, lifelong philanthropist
... and he died peacefully in his sleep.
10/10 life. No notes.
