Honestly it's one of the better mixes I've come across of this, and I could have this in the background for some time.

Something neat a friend was making I thought I would share with any fans of the new Voltron series.

Worked on this girl for 9 months. Now this new music video comes out and she’s immensely popular, arguably one of the most popular characters in the LoL universe.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m really glad she’s a huge hit, it’s super exciting to see so many people love the character design and the gameplay, and know that I contributed directly and significantly to the behind-the-scenes engineering that makes it all work. It’s validating.

But it’s also so fucking melancholy to know I did so much work and put in so much time for such a shitty company, run by shitty people, and the reward I got for it was unemployment. 

I threw a lot into this character. I cried at work. I started getting panic attacks, which I’ve never gotten before. I developed persistent heart palpitations from the daily overwhelming stress and had to go to the hospital (this is true, seriously.) I basically dropped all my friends outside of work. My manager (and his manager!) lied to me constantly to keep me working. They said I was doing a great job but to keep it up. Don’t worry, it’s going to turn out great, and it’ll all be worth it in the end – recognition, a raise, probably a promotion in short order. They promised me the world. When she was finally finished, I didn’t even get to go to the release party, they just walked me out. 

I remember a quote from my last day, it sticks out in my mind: “I know you realize this is really hard for me,” my manager said. Yes, in the end, when he awkwardly informed me I didn’t have my dream job anymore – or any job at all – and then stared back at my shell-shocked face, my thousand-yard stare, the only thing he felt was sorry for himself.

She launched with no major bugs and was considered a technical success. Doesn’t matter. Get the fuck out.

I don’t know how I feel. A weird sensation of pride and intense bitterness. I did a good job; at least, I think I did. Unfortunately, internal validation is the only kind I’m going to get.

Everyone reposting KDA should see this. Riot has successfully distracted everyone into forgetting their culture of sexism, exploitation, and toxicity mere months after it was all revealed.

Look, I get it. Akali is EXTREMELY my type. It’s obvious how much love and care was put into her development. But it makes me furious to see all the free advertising that Riot is getting from people who I thought would know better.  And now? One of the people who is arguably responsible for all that free advertising? Who’s work is undoubtedly making Riot hundreds of thousands of dollars a day? Who was overworked to the point of near breaking? They get nothing. WORSE than the scant bit of credit that most devs can get in a big company like Riot. They got let go.

Fuck Riot Games.

[maxofs2d]

One thing that I thought really sucked a lot is that the production company who made the KDA video isn’t even credited. They credit a lot of other people on their videos, usually, but the actual animators of the video are hidden; almost a lie by omission. At best it’s a honest mistake, at worst it’s sneakily trying to pass off the video as something made in-house when it’s not. :(

Okay reblogging this post again because WHAT THE FUCK, RIOT GAMES IS REALLY THAT TERRIBLE.

[black-girl-strugle]

I just think this needs to be seen

[mysterybensmysteryblog]

Just to put an official stance on it out in the wild here-

Please don’t make compilation videos of the MSA series and then upload them to your Youtube channel. 

While I appreciate the desire to share our work as much as possible, compiling the videos together and having them on your own personal channel does ultimately hurt us, as the views from that video get taken away from ours, which can in fact hurt our ability to produce future content.

Unless there is some manner of transformative property to the videos, such as stating theories, giving a review, adding personal reactions, etc, I will politely ask that you do not simply upload the videos in full without adding anything of your own to it.

This applies regardless whether you link back to us in the description and say that you won’t monetize the video.

Oh and uh… don’t slice out the credits of said videos either…. that’s uh… not cool, let’s say.

Custom wedding guest book I was comissioned to make. The stitching alone was 8+ hours. All custom dyed, no painting involved. Book is much larger than it looks, the paper inside is 8.5" x 11". https://www.instagram.com/p/BpPP89TDeFR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mpsm0kh7vltp

So I decided to for fun - create some gijinka / human concepts for Mystery and the deadbeats. I also got around to creating an additional concept for a certain someone.  These were a lot of fun to put together - with making them simplistic in design but with a twist.   KIKI2018

Yooooooo you guys are so creative, these are really cool designs!
