Made a Buggy because I love him.

Used Marc Burnets 4 layer method. He’s a genius.

My first OC! (He’s actually a character for the Dagger Heart Beast Feast game I’m running for my buddies.)

Daemon Lume. Thwarted heir to the Lume fortune. Leader of the Golden Gang. All the ladies go crazy for him. It’s cannon I can’t help it.

I love DMing it’s given me such a fun reason to draw. 😍

Since it’s Spotify Wrapped season I thought I’d share this reminder that streaming services are killing the music industry. Musicians can’t make a living like this. If you love an artist, find them on Bandcamp and actually buy their albums.

Reminder: This friday (December 5th) is Bandcamp Friday! That means 100% of the proceeds from album sales on Bandcamp go directly to the artists you buy from.

Check your bank statements Adobe users.

The way Adobe keeps charging me when I don’t have an account, haven’t had an account in months, and have had multiple instances of being refunded like what are they doing. Why are they such trash?

Scammers for real.

GOOD NEWS Pinterest users!!

You can drastically reduce the AI results on Pinterest and I suggest you do if this appeals to you.

1. Less to no AI showing up in search results is incredible. Not just for the user but also for the creators that make actual work. There will be less garbage to choke out their submissions.

2. Pinterest will track this and more users taking advantage of this feature means the more they will understand just how fed up we are with AI slop infiltrating creative spaces.

Here’s how you do it:

Pinterest > Settings > Refine your recommendations > GenAI Interests > Toggle them off to grey

Artists and creators how are we keeping our joy in sharing our work in this ai scraping art theft era? Bc man I am having a really hard time with it. I want to share my art. That’s part of the process. But I want to retain ownership and control over it and we just can’t anymore. That’s been taken from us. The thieves keep winning. It’s exhausting and disheartening to the max. They’re stealing things they don’t even appreciate to make garbage their users think is real art. What is going on.

Anyway here’s some work I spent hours on to learn anatomy, values, proportion, etc. but it will inevitably go into the ai slop machines I loathe so some loafer-wearing tech douche can make a fortune enabling talentless dinguses to poop out ai slop.

Frustration is not the word.

Thinking about posting art here more regularly but I am terrified of falling into a trap I just freed myself from: The feeling of chasing what others want. It took me almost 10 years to realize exactly how poisonous this mindset is for an artist. And now that I’m out (free!) I don’t want to slip back in.

Im also wary of the ai scrapers and content thieves.

I’ve glazed images but does that really avoid it? And I’ll only upload low res (so sad tbh) to avoid reposts that lead to art theft but damn it just feels like if you made something and you want to share it you are damned to suffer some kind of frustration that you would never have agreed to.

I don’t want to pour my heart and soul into making things that are special to me only to have them stolen. :/
