Practice with artie.

One of my fave concepts with Artie is floating weapons, particularly his guns. Can be fired this way but usually he just grabs them from the air since the former requires extra concentration.

One, nothing wrong with me--

Disney plus is not even available in china i am begging you to stop blaming American homophobia on China

Nimona was going to get a film and they CANCELLED it? I never even heard they were making this. Apparently they laid off the team cos of coronavirus but man, what a loss. Nimona is great and I’m positive it would have made an awesome movie.

[starkidmack]

“Cos of coronavirus” nah fam they bought the studio making Nimona, which was MOSTLY DONE, and cancelled the project. Disney is a multibillion dollar corporation and could easily afford to continue funding the project to completion but willfully chose not to. They chose to kill it. Not because of China or Russia or COVID, but because they are at their roots still supremely bigoted, including anti-gay. Don’t let their rainbow-washing fool you. Disney is not your friend.

Support Creators and Artists, not the cooperation.

[rykhafirehand]

Here’s the thing, it’s unfair to call Disney ‘bigoted’ and call it a day… when the reality is so much more sinister than that, and deserves to be scrutinised in detail.

Disney is devouring IPs. That’s a fact. They acquire smaller studios, including all original IP from those studios as well as any rights that were sold to them (even when the original creators did so specifically so Disney wouldn’t get their hands on the IP). Doing anything with that IP isn’t a priority, they just want it, because if they don’t own it, someone else does. And that won’t fly when you want to be the only purveyor of entertainment media in the world.

Any bigoted actions are an interplay of that and Disney’s funding priorities. The company doesn’t give a single solitary crap one way or the other. Hell, if LGBTQ+ content was universally accepted, they’d just flood the market with nothing but that. BUT! That’s not the case today. They’re peddling to the common market, which is bigoted because society is bigoted. Not even in the “Gays is bad” way, but simply “I don’t have anything agaist The Queers, I just don’t know why the have to shove it in my face.”

And you can say “Oh but if the film was so close to finished they could have just funded it the rest of the way!” But that’s not the point. The point is, they want that IP to sit on, like a dragon on its treasure hoard. They want to have it available should they decide 10 years from now that it’ll make all of the money. They want to prevent anyone else from making that money in the meantime. They want the positive press if 3 years from now they do decide to finish it, in a cynical bid to overshadow some new leak of abuse within the company.

That’s the truly sad thing; this isn’t malice. It’s Disney doing business in the same way it’s always done. And it’s crippling, hurting, destroying art.

Made a Silco animatic cause I love that guy

[raivelovell]

Some more artie's. Doing expression practice. Trying to get more consistent with the scar design and the way his hair is. But as far as things go I think he looks pretty similar throughout.

[raivelovell]

AM I getting somewhere? Mayhaps

[raivelovell]

I'm never looking at this piece ever again

[raivelovell]

I'm gonna definitely color this in a less paint style as I need more practice but I really like the sketch.

[raivelovell]

Sometimes I feel like giving up, but I know that it's not what we're fighting for.
