Hello #PortfolioDay!

I'm Nic, a tattooer in Toronto, ON! You can find available designs at the link below.

My flash book is for me to tattoo only 🙏

I tattoo all skin tones, body types, and gender identities, and strive to have a comfy cozy tattoo shop where everyone can feel welcome

#CommsOpen

A black and grey tattoo of a serene looking Celestial lady knight.

A black and grey tattoo of a neutral expressioned fae with moth wings on their face. They have small antlers and dreads.

A black and grey tattoo of two cat sith tied by red strings of fate, surrounded by catnip and Holly. It is over top surgery scars

A black and grey tattoo of Chimera Falin and Marcille from Dungeon Meshi being obvious girlfriends. They are looking at each other adoringly, and Falin's wing is wrapped around Marcille. The tail frames the portrait.

And one of the industries which, relying entirely on freelance workers, but requiring public audience spaces, was fucked over completely by the pandemic, without mercy or assistance, but survived, on its knees so it can now get another kick in the teeth from these soulless twats.

Hey kids!

Remember when the pandemic struck and eventually the (Tory) government told everyone to stay at home, and the arts and entertainment industries were one of the few things keeping everyone from pulling our own eyes out of our skulls from abject fear and boredom?

Remember that?

How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

In case you, like me, saw your electric bill more than double.

Peter Butler @peter-butler.bsky.social · 1d

Bloomberg research found wholesale electricity up ~270% in areas near data centers

It doesn't seem like nearly enough people are taking it seriously

One A.I. image isn't too much energy, but 5 million videos? Per day/hour/minute whatever. It's not sustainable

www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

AI Data Centers Are Sending Power Bills Soaring

Wholesale electricity costs as much as 267% more than it did five years ago in areas near data centers. That’s being passed on to customers.

Kody is one of the best people in comics. Full stop.

You won't find anyone kinder, friendly or more supportive of the comics making community. He's been one of my most reliable friends in comics for years and someone who well and truly deserves all the support in the world. Lend a hand.

Kody Okamoto @kodyisover.com · 1d

So just once again reiterating, if you wanna be a patron of my art, every dollar of your support goes really, REALLY far in making a tangible difference in my life.

The only thing I bring up from high school is being a theatre kid because there's no other way to describe theatre kid energy (which I still/will always possess)

fanart of Melinoe from Hades 2, wearing a modern outfit (dark jeans, orange top), she has a big tattoo on her right arm, and is about to tie her hair with a hair band (is this how it's called in english ?)
her eyes are closed, she has nice arm muscles and looks extremely lesbian

fanart of Nemesis from Hades 2, wearing a modern outfit (red jeans, black crop top with the Hades sigil as a pattern on it), moon shaped necklace, tattoos on her left arm and pecs, as she's about to tie her hair using a green hairband, her eyes closed

fanart of Eris, from Hades 2, she's sitting, right leg with her knee bent, in front of her
right hand on her right foot, left hand on her face, framing her left eye between two fingers
she's wearing big sneakers, micro shorts, some sort of sweater with stripes showing her shoulders

fanart of Medea from Hades 2, but wearing modern clothes (tiny leather shorts with double belt, red/purple leather crop top), a nose ring, necklaces, also big tattoo covering the entire left arm (a snake, a moon crescent, flowers and leaves)
She's sitting, resting on her left hand, her right hand next to her face, conjuring some plague magic that bathes her in green light

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

The Verge @theverge.com · May 26

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

A loose sketch of Yves (big tiefling) with a bruised nose and a black eye. He looks concerned, and there is a clawed hand from off screen grabbing his face.

I have a big penchant for giving my characters amnesia to let DMs mesh them with the world.

So this was a big lore drop for me as well 😌✨

And to be very clear: my lines and veils typically read a lot like the "you can punch me, kick me, pull my hair. I am A-OK being stabbed." etc

nic.tattoos @nicterhorst.com · 1d

No social media space since the invention of the smart phone is a haven. They're labs for commerce. Go hang out in your friend's shitty apartment.

His son is there to help 😭👍 man's about to talk about himself for the first time since the start of the campaign

nic.tattoos @nicterhorst.com · 1d

Tfw you find out that you *are* a demon. Or rather a whole devil.

And you meet someone who's sworn to kill you for killing their family.

And you don't remember.

Not like you killed so many people you don't remember those ones. Just like... you don't remember being a warrior of the Hells.
