Hi new peeps!
I'm Yoi, and I mostly draw my OCs and occasionally fanart of whatever i'm into in the moment. Mostly digital art, but sometimes I like to mess around with mixed media on paper or get crafty.
I like character design, fantasy themes, fluff and coffee.
Might post something spicy at times.

retouched the old man's face texture, came out much better than the first one that had a glaring neck seam issue.
And did some testing for eyes&face for syren. i find the smoother face so much harder to work with :'D needs more textureeeee

With all the fundraisers tallied up, Jingle Jam 2025 has officially raised over £3.4 million for charity - absolutely insane stuff. Thank you so, so much! We hope you enjoyed our two weeks of festive fundraising. Now, off to sleep ‘til 2026!

this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

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.

Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:

aside from the disconnects i've also had very noticeable input lag with ff today, despite my ping being the same as usual. I guess the ddos bombardment is doing a number on the servers.

Important PSA: I hope you never see other artists as competition. Please take their success as proof that you can also succeed here.

I hope you don't mind me using this post for advertising of sorts...
I very recently moved to Excalibur from Omega so my friendlist is looking very empty ;u;
I'd love to find just new friendos on the NA side of things or cross-world linkshells, or even an FC to join!

I'm posting about ff14 more on my tumblr, if anyone is wondering. I tend to ramble on most of the time so posting here would be too much of a pain in the ass with the character limit on posts. posts on tumblr are all under a tag of their own as well, so find one and you'll find them all.
