hey, so this fetish of mine may be a little weird and niche, but... I think writers and artists should have security and proper compensation and treatment

Honestly, after today's promo, one would say that we gave you something BOAR-ing. But only in the sense that nothing is boring about this highlight from Artist @systmiki.bsky.social!

There's only a month left to preorder, so if you haven't already done so...

I once ordered a taxi in Belfast for a night out. The driver pulls up to my house and just says "yer not going out like that. Go back in and change, I'll turn off the metre." | swear I was wearing normal jeans and a normal jacket.

I once wore a silver jacket to college, turned up late for class, said 'sorry I'm late', lecturer said, 'that's ok' then waited til I was halfway across the front of the full class before following up with 'trouble with the spaceship again was it?'.

My sister was in France sporting a new trench coat, thought was so stylish, but went into an Irish bar and got called Inspector Gadget by the first guy that saw her

I wore a suit with a matching tie and pocket square to my first day of work at an advertising company (I thought I was going to be in Mad Men I guess) and the staff sent around and signed a communion card for me with a fiver in it.

I'm Grace and I like to paint horror 👻

"Be the Queen the world deserves"
Head of a xenomorph queen on a red background

"The Happy King"
A man with a crown and a halo forced to smile by two hands while a creature is emerging from his chest

"The fisherman by the lake"
"See? Told you we should wait for migration season! These nosey guys can't resist to see what's going on. No need for lures nor nets! Easy catch!"
____
A fisherman is holding two big creatures with the body of a fish and the face of a human. He's standing by a lake with red water, more human-face fishes are poking their head out the lake. In the distance 3 giant eldrich creatures walk among the mountains below a yellow sky with red sun.

"The wood dwellers"
"You are not from here are you?"
____
A child like creature with a dress, an apron, and the head covered in a burlap sack is standing holding a bucket dripping red liquid in one hand, nd a rope in the other. The rope is holding a creature without he body of a pig, the mane of a lion, 4 horns, and a face with black eyes and a bright red third eye.

Im 90% sure the 3 jobs that have gotten back to me are scams. And the other 12 i have applied to havent gotten back to me.

My maga coworker is just getting worse and worse and its absolutely miserable. Her rancid attitude towards me is just grating. Not worth minimum wage...

Ever since the Hidden Webpage episode I've been compelled to draw a pinup of Papa Meat. Not as rule 34 as was requested of fans, i wanted to draw him pretty ok.

#creepcast #papameat #meatcanyon

Drawing of Hunter aka Papa Meat, he is surrounded with guts and tentacles. He holds his hands under his chin in a gleeful way. He smirks at the viewer.

i started art classes recently and what has become an issue is ai photos being passed as real as they’re getting harder to spot. it’s getting exhausting looking for things to paint only to realize it’s ai. special mention goes to people ai generating photos of SCULPTURES.

Susanna Shore, Author @susannashore.bsky.social · 20d

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.

A post on Mastodon by small cypress (@small_cypress@indieweb.social):

As an art teacher I was worried AI would come up as an issue of "why should I learn how to draw when I can use AI instead."

But the real issue is that my middle schoolers CONSTANTLY believe all art I show them is AI. Digital art. Photography. Oil paintings from the Western canon. "A human couldn't do that"

Being convinced that humans can't make great art is kind of terrifying

So life has gotten incomprehensibly expensive and I think I need to open commissions.

See details in thread

$35 for a “silly little sketch” (first image)
$55 for a clean monotone sketch (second image)
$90 for lines with flat color+minimal shading (last images)

+75% per additional character

Comm example: silly little sketch. These will be ROUGH and FAST

Comm example: clean sketch with monotone colors

Commission example: lined and flat colored with minimal shading

A recommendation for the sickos who vibe with slow, atmospheric nonsense, full of imagery that evokes Lovecraft (by way of Fulci and Rollin).

DARK WATERS (1993) is full of the blasphemous gothic, slumbering ancient gods, moldering tombs, desolate cliffsides as the scene of monstrous rituals, etc
