today, I venture to ask: what do minotaur fingers look like?

as it turns out, the answer has to do with the visual conventions of mythology and high fantasy, the history of Magic, and how we manage the alienness of fantasy realism.

give it a read!

Bsky will probably kill the quality of this but I put my outfit designs from the past year together and I'm really happy with the stuff I came up with!

The left is wedding stuff, top right is casual epilogue fits that I really want to draw more and the bottom is a proper pirate fit for jace

"look we're not using AI in the final product we're just using it to speed up the conceptual stage" is what a lot of dopes affecting an enlightened middle position keep saying. I truly do not get that one. You hate imagining stuff? You don't like thinking and conceptualizing? Get a grip

The thing thats so insidious about using AI this way is that one of the main ways artists get hired are studios looking for art references and they find us and reach out.

This is removing a major avenue to get work if they can just generate nameless derivations of our ideas.

Jace beleren is so funny bc he is so deeply disgusted and terrified of his innate ability to manipulate/hurt people but he's also a control freak who sometimes does incredibly selfish things against others' wishes

He is so so kind and considerate but he can also be callous and selfish. Multitudes.
