I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field.

There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.
Remember, kids: A real big goal of "AI" is to entirely sever capital from labor, and no, there will be no universal basic income, you can all just starve and die, thanks

AI is already taking jobs away from entry-level workers
Software and customer service are most at risk right now and could be the canary in the coal mine.

Cover piece for an indie game called ‘The Bloodline’ which has been incredibly fun to work on. I also made an alternate colored sunset theme for them. #indiegame #steamcapsule #videogames

Looking back, I really regret scraping this bust (hah) sculpt of Lady Dimitrescu. Did this while still in school a few years back but never really felt happy with the overall result. Anyways, here you go.

"if I just work hard enough, eventually I'll make it"

No. cause if you don't make it that means you didn't work hard enough. And that isn't fair to your efforts.

there are so many factors outside of your hands. So much success is luck, and failure is not always your fault. cut yourself some slack.

Been listening to so much Parkway Drive working on my personal project today. Been feeling that urge to pick up bass again, been too long since I'm missing my schecter stiletto.

My main takeaway from this GDC is that there's a generation of incredibly talented young gamedevs that just need someone to give them a chance

When I get free time.. My brain goes to Fire Emblem Three houses. I got the FE brain rot now. It gives me so much inspiration. Byleth is one hell of a fun character. #byleth #fireemblem #fe3h

It has been a hot minute since I've done more "realism" based art. Working on a mod with a small community taught me more than traditional school at the time.. Anyways, enjoy some samurai horse armor I worked on forever ago.

Would love to make some medieval armors one day.

A look back on this 3D rendition of Tiziano Zhou's awesome concept I made in Unreal Engine 5. I miss making these large scale environments and hope to be back at it soon.

I can’t really put into words how much this job market has sucked my will to want to work. Let alone feeling the desire to keep pushing to be part of this industry as an artist. I love what I do but damn man… I haven’t felt this run down since I left the military years ago.

Art time, I made Blutgang from Fire Emblem Three Houses!

I previously made Marianne's relic when FE3H first came out, but wanted to give it another bash after making Aymr for the 5th annviersary last year.

One of these days I swear I'm going to finish this. Making little updates every now and then, but man.. with Kingdom Come 2 and Monster Hunter Wilds that is becoming rather difficult 😅

An unpaid art test I recently did for a studio. Figured I would share it finally considering I'm still in the "We're in a hiring freeze now" phase of the interview... All that aside, I am proud of the result.
