But well, I signed up specifically because I wanted to pressure myself, so I have no one to thank for this but me

While this is good, the pressure myst be kept up. They will try again in December. Wait till everyone forgets due Christmas.

We must keep the calls coming, lest they sneak it past.

😅 Grad school was so easy compared to this. All my strengths are tied up in this world, so it's weird (but also weirdly fun) to be struggling

OSU!! I'M NOT BACKING DOWN 💪 !!!

If I ever manage to get good enough to be hired by a big studio, I'm just going to be spending all my free time digging into old studio logs and research, instead of, y'know, sleeping

Give me the Assassin's creed I historical sources! I've been wading through turkish drama series, archeological blogs and academic descriptions, but I Know there are visual sources for abbasid costuming or at least recreations in that library!
Give me give me give me!!

Low key wish we didn't just get concept art collections from video game and film productions, but also collections of all the research, so there'd be less legwork figuring out how to find the right localised references

I mean... from where I sit, no surveillance proposal is reasonable, so we're definitely going to have to fight again

Loui Stonehill @louistonehill.bsky.social · 15h

Unsurprisingly /sigh/
A lot of our politicians also have a surveillance fetish so I'm not really expecting this problem to go away
Gotta keep fighting and informing

Loui Stonehill @louistonehill.bsky.social · 15h

Yeah that tracks :D I think you probably did fine

The thing is, certain parties in the EU have been trying to get this through for years, even before Denmark took leadership, so this wouldn't be the end - they just pushed it because Hummelgaard has a surveillance fetish /sigh

Modern Chel (2024)

[ #RuiiArt | #RoadToElDorado | #ArtSky ]

Chel from Road to El Dorado this time in small top and matching Jean shorts, both have the same pink and red stripes on them. She got some semi neon yellow shades blowing bubble gum, giving the viewer that bombastic eyebrow raise.
