character artist by trade, idiot by birth
personal account, not my work opinions.
NO LONGER ON X
The funny part about being a 3d artist and this happening to you is you can tell it’s bullshit. they always go “your art tells a genuine story and I wanna buy it” and I’m like “you wanna buy screencaps from my iPad”
posted a handful of my cafesculpts to artstation and within moments i got spam emails... great to be back i guess

I’m almost barely slightly maybe tempted to use these sales to upgrade my iPad Pro to a smaller version, the 13” is great but not quite portable enough. It do be expensive tho.

GenAI is a fascist product. Sorry you don’t have the moral fortitude to do your own thinking, but fascists love that

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷
