Today I'm two year sober, and I think this is the most important thing I want to remember of this 2025.
Well done, me.

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier.
Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder.

Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder
“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” said one artist.

It's the first time I felt like a REALLY REAL artist, which in Italy means I have to be subjected to a barrage of documentation, bureaucracy and buck-passing phone calls to have the possibility to ship my artwork internationally.

Thrift find! Today I found a Zucor drafting machine from the 80's - with a damaged arm for almost nothing. I spent the morning sanding, cleaning and restoring it and... It's almost brand new, works like a charm in every part now, and the table is SO STABLE, 0 wobbles at all! Weights almost 80 lbs 😂
