consuming media and especially queer media about love and the connections between people reinforces how much I love love. I adore it as a theme, it makes me so happy to see joyful and unbridled love.

A set of six tokens for a D&D party. They are described as follows; 1. A drow woman with an acqueline nose, she has white hair that is pinned into a bun and eyes with multiple pupils. She is surrounded by a spider web frame with pink ribbows and black pearls. 2. An Aasimar character with brown eyes and black hair. He is surrounded by a gold celtic knot inspired frame and winding tree branches. 3. A blue tiefling with dark blue hair, he has white and seafoam freen eyes. He is surrounded by a art deco frame with nautical themes, like a ship wheel, a length of rope, and some waves. 4. A half elf half drow with dark skin and blonde hair. He is surrounded by a frame of wild flowers, coins, and a dagger. 5. A half elf man with blue eyes and blonde hair dressed as a bard. He is surrounded with a gold frame with dandelions and wind patterns. 6. A half elf woman with blue eyes and red hair. She is surrounded by a frame with book pages and gems and snowflakes.

A lot of companies seem to be under the impression that we only care if gAI was used in the final product and using it for concept art/placeholder art is ok.
gAl is poison that should be nowhere near any creative process. Not a single asset. Not a single placeholder sign.
Give no inch.

From 2024. Apparently missed that the first time around. This just destroys my hype for Dark Heresy. If Rogue Trader was made without AI “helping” the concept art phase, there is zero reason to push it on to Dark Heresy development. I am gutted.
Screenshot of a Twitter/X post by @OwlcatGames made on 3/2/24. Text reads: “Guys, we would like to clarify this issue. We use AI as a working tool for our future project, which is in the early stages of production right now. AI will be used exclusively for additional work with concepts and speeding up some internal processes (for example, for creative search, inspiration, or vision coordination before starting conceptualization itself). The final version of the game will not have any art generated by the neural networks. The same goes for the final concepts. Everything will be original and drawn by professional artists. On our current projects, Rogue Trader and Pathfinder, AI was not used at all. We are very sorry that we confused you with the information about AI in the job description. We understand that without further explanation this may be misinterpreted, so we have removed this information.”

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Well put by @drrachelbarr.bsky.social
cinema_nasties 1d Al defenders are so embarrassing j.paulmonter 2h All you are saying is that you want to gatekeep creativity. That's not good. drachelbarr & 20h • •• Neuroscientist here... creativity is a process. A process. A FUCKING PROCESS. Not an output. Nobody is gatekeeping the process - Al simply invites you to skip to the end, to the output. Which, as mentioned, is not creativity. Nobody cares if the output is aesthetically pleasing, because the process, the act itself, the limitation of a single human mind and the resulting creations that capture that one single inimitable human experience... is what makes a creation worth paying attention

Big hat 💜

[ #cuteart #traditionalart #sketchbook ]
A doodle in a sketchbook of a cute, stylized, tiny black crow wearing a huge purple witch hat. A few stars and trinkets hang from the her on strings. There is a coral-colored circle behind them with doodles of stars in it. The illustration uses a limited palette and has some texture to it.

I feel like once I've finished University, I should make and post character bio's for my OCs. See if I can drum up some interest in them and their story

Diamond soul 💎 a symmetrical portrait from last year. #art #oc #ocsky
Symmetrical portrait of a satyr with white skin, goat ears, a crystal horn on the forehead, blue eyes with white pupils and long, white, wavy hair decorated with blue flowers. They are wearing a choker with a silver bell, a semi-transparent dress, and shiny star-shaped earrings. The background is dark, full of stars.

Day eight of #Taletober - Sword
Another canon event :3 This is part of the ‘accepting the call’ story beat where Pyrrhus is given his sword back by Nereus.
Story in alt text

#Drawtober #Artober #Taletober2025 #Drawtober2025 #Artober2025 #OriginalCharacter #ArtChallenge #OctoberChallenge #ArmaLucis
“Pyrrhus stared at his sword conflicted as Nereus watched on. He lost this sword the day he went over the side of the boat and ended up in the Hidden Hollow. Apparently it had washed up not too long ago on the same beach he did back then. Perhaps it’s a sign from the gods that he must take up arms once again.”
