I'm Michelle, and I like to push digital paint around in the TTRPG sphere.

Open for freelance work (TTRPG, book covers, illustrations, etc - Contact in pinned post) and private commissions (vgen.co/CoveofMadness)
TEXT: Pistolheart, A Western Campaign supplement for Daggerheart by Carlos Cisco A train with a big green crystal in the front is coming toward the viewer while two gunslingers, one a fungril and the other a clank, leap from their mounts (a roadrunner and a robot horse) onto the train. Bandits on top of the train fire at them with guns. A cleric astride a flying broom raises a glowing sword above a battle field. Golden, rays of bright light stream out from the sword. Her party members and herself are wrapped in golden glowing flowers and vines. They stare up at her in awe. The party members, counter clockwise from the top left are: A dwarven artificer wearing jeweltones and riding a magic carpet, the cleric wearing a gold breastplate and blue robes; a giant fighter in full adamantine plate and a dragon helm; a half-drow Psi-fighter in blues and purples, floating mid-air and holding her crossbow; and a tiefling ranger, arms stretched out in joy and relief. Behind the party members is a truly gargantuan giant, you can see him only up to his knees. He wears silver greaves and you can catch a glimpse of his great axe. Ruins of a city are in the distant background. A giant-sized cowgirl reclines in the pasture with her livestock (primarily cows, with a few chickens sneaking in) as the sun rises off screen. She has red hair in pigtail braids and wears a cowboy hat and boots along with a magenta and leather western bodice, and suede pants with runic inspired panel/stitch detailing. The crescent moon and the tears of Selene are between a horizon of red rock hills and puffy pink clouds. A barn with thatched roof is nestled in the shadow beneath a crag at the right edge of the image. An illustration of a goliath hunter on his mount in snowy mountain terrain, facing off against a crag cat. The Goliath is a young man, dressed in brown and white furs, accented with red and blue woven panels. He wields a red horsebow. His mount is a mixture of a reindeer and a markhor goat. His tack and gear matches the colors and motifs of his rider. He is mid leap. In the foreground, a white sabertoothed cat pursues the pair. In the background are snowy peaks and Giant ruins.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

RE the Anno loading screens shituation, I think it's actually insane for a franchise that has had a rep for such high quality genre artwork to fuck this up.

Literally just the other day I searched for an old 1404 loading screen to use as ref.
What a goddamned shame.

. Death .

Skelly in a sally #tarot #illustration #artsky #art
Death tarot card. the grim reaper in black gothic armour rides atop a pale horse bearing a black standard. the social classes cower in fear before him, a priest, a soldier, a king lies fallen at his horses feet. a burning city can be seen in the distance and a river of blood is flowing past. a crimson coat is trailing behind the reaper.

Be extra kind to yourselves.
A lot of artists, including myself, are struggling.
It's not because we are failing; the system is failing us. A system that doesn't care about us. So we rely on those around us for support and kindness.
Keep your head up. We are doing our best ♡
