Ayy, got to paint best girl Karlach for D&D's new Forgotten Realms Adventure Guide. :D Painting the coronation scene was such a fun challenge as well.

My fellow Europeans, I'm once again asking you to write or call your EU representatives and tell them this is unacceptable. They're essentially selling our sensitive data to companies, effectively destroying our privacy and risking our digital well-being.

When the Game Awards go on this year can we like... shoutout the actual devs and composers for categories like art direction, design, audio etc. Instead of acting like a studio name makes the games.

Class of 2022 here. I don’t know what is the most infuriating thing abt this article but this one stings me the most. You try so hard to get recognised in the industry which you kinda do and then it suddenly ceases to exist. What’s the point in the end? 🫠

Something worth noting: Rockstar is leaning HEAVILY on the excuse that the unionising employees were "leaking private company information"

They want people to assume this means game info or assets.

But I will bet you CASH MONEY this translates to:

'they were comparing salaries and work contracts"

Because SE's QA people are probably not in a position to defend themselves and their jobs in public, I want to spell out some of what it is they specifically do for us localizers, because nothing I've written here is rhetorical. SE QA acts as a final check on our work after translation and editing.
You don't need me to tell you this is yet more good money being burned after bad. But as someone who's worked with that QA team, I'll say they're unsung heroes who truly play a huge role in maintaining SE's reputation for high quality locs and to attempt to replace them with AI is deeply insulting.
Square Enix wants 70% of its QA work to be handled by generative AI by the end of 2027, in partnership with the University of Tokyo's Matsuo-Iwasawa Laboratory. https://bit.ly/4qKdyQR

I swear, half the fun of still keeping tabs on the Marvel Rivals reddit page is to see the occasional "what do you mean women find that attractive???" discussions crop up.

Like coats that shows off forearms.

Official Cover Art for D&D Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn.

Truly a great honor to be given a chance to paint covers for D&D.
It features best girl Karlach, the one I also made for Magic in the past.
I hope you like the result!

Big thanks to Emi Tanji as the Art Director for commissioning me.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

Rockstar union workers have set up a solidarity fund to help them survive and fight after 30 of them were fired in an attempt to destroy the union.

Help them fight back! If you can, any little bit you can donate will massively help their efforts.

High Tide 🌊 ✨ Hey guys I just finished this new painting in my ongoing series of paintings called ‘A Starry Place’ where I explore spaces that are meaningful and nostalgic to me. This piece is inspired by overcoming insurmountable challenges.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

I really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote:

"To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace."

No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.
