"Surprise me, Skeb Commission"

I think these terms are still rather new, correct me if I am wrong. I know Skeb comes from the japanese commission platform. But the funny thing for me is, ... this is basically how I have been doing my commissions for a decade I think ... ppl tell me everything I need to know, and one day I deliver the finished piece, no matter how small or big.

Rather rarely commissioners ask to be included in the process, and get WIP updates. Usually for pieces, where they have a very specific vision.

Of course, with my usual way it happened a few times I needed to correct stuff, be it colors or forgetting small details like an earring, because sometimes you can look at a ref so often and still forget about it. And sometimes my commissioner forgot to tell me details, happens too.

EITHER WAY.... I like working without major breaks, that's why I did it that way since ages (& with job in da way, aka less time, prob won't change that as standard ever) and I'm glad most seem to be fine with it. Also I'm working on my commission website, ... and as usual pondering what to change and thus I've been browsing other ppl's websites, ... especially how to list my Prices. Like sorted by style, or rather by size again... while make it visually easy to understand (hopefully)

#personal #ive been working on that new website since weeeeeks #its so hard to decide how to order or write some stuff

Digital Dreams: The Work of the Sony Design Center (Paul Kunkel)

What a timing to get an old book (1999) about Sony's creations, right before they announced no physical CD releases anymore for their Games. - I've got it from Ebay UK, and possibly only one person in 2006 lend it for a while, makes it extra charming it came from a library. Made me wonder how they decide which books get removed. (Cause it sure as hell hard to find any online listings which don't ruin your wallet).

I'm still on my nostalgia trip, but also thx to tiktok... darn, finding a certain charm in some retro designs, but also because it's knowing that no AI was involved in those creative processes... I even bought a book about "All-American Ads of the 2000s" ... imagine, finding old ads inspiring...

#personal #2000s #retro #sony #*clenches fist* I love human creativity

I wish Ppl wouldn't use AI voice overs for their videos, mostly because they sound really annoying. And those who may sound normal, still got that eerie touch, tho sometimes it is hard to tell at first... YouTube sometimes recommend me videos of random topics and when I don't see a person talking, it is most likely AI, especially when there is not really any graphics but mostly small video or pictures about different scenes, more diashow like..., like you can kinda tell there went less work into it. I think I got too used to Youtubers showing their face, or at least when they don't, that the video got more personal touch, or VTuber.

Since a lot of artists use AI Voice Overs, I wonder if that is the more acceptable form of AI? At least those models, where they got the VA's consent, or idk how they are done. How it's on the environment, idk, if it's more minimal. Some say it's kinda LLM, or gen AI... in my quick search I didn't really become smarter about this topic.

I definitely understand why it is used, it's more engaging (tho if it's that high pitched tiktok voice, gotta swipe fast) and not everyone is fluent in English, or has a voice that's pleasant to listen to. Some videos I didn't continue watching, even if a real human was there, simply because it did not sound good to me, but some also have no good scripts. Mood may play a role too, atm I'm mostly listening to Ambient Music, so lower tolerance as well.

I hope I can keep my VA's at least, in Germany Netflix wanted to use their voices for training AI and luckily they protested, but ofc they simply don't hire them anymore and use other VA's... I really hope the worst case won't happen. Germany sucks at doing good movies, but VA wise I find them pretty good. Ofc there is also a chance, that all those Superstars offer their voice for gen AI for $ and it may come down to that no Hollywood movie needs voice acting anymore... god I hope not.

I still own some of the originals, as she sent some to me once. Yes, I browsed DA again, there were some artists I wanted to commission again but most don't have any new social media linked or any updates, just gone 😔

#nostalgia #the usual by me #THESE ARE STILL SO CUTE I DIeeee #anyway a lot vanished without a trace #some got actually some artistic jobs #and some had money problems and no new info about them since years 🥲#some i found also dont do commissions anymore #my bf has a lil sister and she is getting into digital art and i got quietly so upset she cant experience DA like i did #it def was a nice active community in the past for me #idk if any social media can replicate that ... m old asdfgh maybe i just dont see it

my shrine, albeit partially set up, cuz I need space so some stuff will go back to the shelves... I've been organizing my room new, after buying a new desk & sadly I get distracted a lot x') ... finding my old Nintendo 3DS soon too.

Sticker/Art Haul, they all have such great styles and I am obsessed when they follow a certain theme / style, wish I had that commitment, on the other it could be possibly limiting art wise, but not here for a discussion about that anyway. Rather just the pure appreciation, and how aesthetically pleasant it is to look at these.

In Japan they got the DESIGN FESTA, which is simply cool, since tons of artists get to share their designs and creations. I also get reminded how even fonts catch my attention and thx to reels, I sometimes see compilations of posters, ads of certain eras and sdfgh *gestures* it's just so visually pleasing to the eye, only to be evtl faced with today's reality again which is the Slop we see nowadays.

#personal #insert meme ITS ART #also damn the effort some artists give to packaging #i love the experience but damn i cannot deny most ends in trash again #a lot of plastic waste - with some stuff i try to reuse #certainly wont blame artists when big companies cannot even be arsed to limit waste and im biased #i follow the role of trying my best after all someone rich just gotta fly with their jet and ruin my efforts asdfgh #anyway idk where to put all these apart of my treasure box or sometimes in my phone case as deco

lil haul, I was surprised there was still official Ginjo merch I did not have... also getting into sanrio / esp Kuromi was my rabbit hole 😭 I cannot resist cuteness

#personal #a while ago i also ordered lots of stickers n such from artists #ive no idea where to put them asdfghj i just have a box where i stuff most in like a treasure box #but esp stickers are so difficult ... some i applied on my pc but damn always thinking #what if i find a better place later???#i love collecting pretty art but damn no good display options in my room
