Artist in hibernation, I only draw when I'm REALLY motivated (and my mental blockades loosen up and allow me to draw for once)

Good reminder to do this again because I just found hundreds of folks I followed on twitter that have gotten bsky accounts in the time since I last did this.

Also folks please, please update your bio to say who you are and what you do here.

Oh man I'm so used to this, I forgot to mention. Visual artists, you don't need to maintain a clean media tab because you can utilize hashtags to basically create an art-only feed!

bsky.app/profile/enig...
Also!! In case you didn’t know! You can put tags on your profile and when tap and hold on them- you can search posts of the users profile with these tags :3!! It’s very handy :D

Can I ask a favour?

Life has been really tough lately due to terminal family illness and I just haven’t had the spoons for decent self promotion.

Gonna be in an airport and will be on a plane for A VERY LONG TIME next week so I'm looking into fun games to play on to go on my Switch 2.. But the eshop is filled with so much garbage I can't find legit good games that easily fall under the radar.

I prefer RPGs but love a good story in any genre.

Beyond what you’ve listed there, the specificity of the “reference” it generates easily removes at least a couple rounds of iterative design upfront that artists could be paid for.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

For pushing far right discourses

For fostering misinformation

For promoting racism and sexism

For creating even more junk and waste

For dehumanizing the most human things like creativity and relationships

For having people compete against each other even further

For this and more, fuck AI
man, fuck AI

fuck AI for making us distrust everything

fuck AI for giving us worse services at higher prices

fuck AI for using our water sources

fuck AI for taking our jobs

“We just use AI to generate ideas for our concept art”

Yes, you're just using a plagiarism machine that spits out a mishmash of creativity and ideas from thousands of creative people who didn't consent to their work being used in this way. And you're using this as the foundation for your game. 💀

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.

It's almost 2026, at this point in time everyone in the industry knows what GenAi is and where it came from. It doesn't matter what you use it for, even if it's "just for references" (which also?? 🤡). If you value human craft you should avoid it like the plague, it's that simple.
"I didn’t say we use it to develop concept art" just to make reference, get ideas from and outline composition lmao
just 90% of what concept is🤣
