#comics #webcomic #graphicnovel #artist #illustration #digitalart
Page 37: 1 - Magpie pecks down at the locket with a ‘tap tap tap’ onomatopoeia 2 - Magpie ponders in magical appraisal. Her eye turns black with a gleaming red light for the pupil Magpie: Hmmm.. 3 - Weetrill watches her examination hopefully with an eager closed smile and wide eyes Magpie: A treasure indeed, young Weekin. 4 - Magpie and Weetrill stare across the room at each other, Magpie towering over him and Weetrill staring up at her, with the large spellbook between them Magpie: –but one meant only for thee 5 - Weetrill is wide eyed, shocked and stammering Weetrill: Meant only for–I 6 - Magpie cocks her head as Weetrill continues protesting Weetrill: Now wait just a – you can’t possibly be– 7 - Weetrill angrily points up at her Weetrill: Now see here, Magpie! Page 38: 1 - Weetrill argues up at the Witchbird Weetrill: If this is a Quest, you’d best send it off to the Gnomes 2 - Weetrill continues bargaining Weetrill: It’s too dangerous to wander off into the woods! 3 - Magpie clutches the locket in her talon Magpie: Claim’st though thine heart was found in my shire? Weetrill: …my..heart? 4 - Magpie, still holding the heart locket peers down eagerly at a flabbergasted Weetrill Magpie: ‘Tis thy bauble’s name, Weetrill. 5 - Magpie, holds the heart in front of her and looks like a stern grandmother Magpie: And thou didst not answer my query.

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words.

But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

There's an unsurprising tendency across leaders in the tech world (games included) to see art as merely part of something's production line, a box that needs to be ticked before copies can be sold. It's why AI is often justified as something that saves time, or saves money. But with art, that process is the point. The themes and ideas artists draw on, the way they iterate through those ideas with sketches, the work itself is what creates art. There are no shortcuts.

Before I go on Etsy, are there any laid-off game artists in my follower/repost pool who would be available for a custom DnD party art commission? Four characters, a few special requests, preferably by Christmas? DM me! I have money!

Just found out our dog training gym is closing and what a punch in the gut that was. We have been going for years, and Luna has had the same trainer since she was just a few months old. An incredibly kind and knowledgeable group of trainers.

If you're ICE, you should fear the retribution that will be coming for you. You feel powerful now, protected, but it will not always be like this. There's no way you do this to your neighbours, and it all gets forgiven. You've made your bed. You deserve all the hurt that's coming for you.

20 years ago, normal people avoided technology and techies would jump on the newest gadgets as soon as they could

now, normal people buy smart toasters & coffee mugs while every techie I know is on the verge of retreating to the forest

ANYWAY, one of our subscription goals with @aftermath.site is to be able to travel to events like this, not to line up and play demos, but to take the time to interview studios, meet people, learn stuff, get snapshots of a scene, etc:

We've got a big tuition bill coming, and we'd like to make you some art about it! We're offering bust portraits at $70 or 2 for $120! We can also do full-body portraits for $90 ($150 with background)!
DM or reach out on tricksywizard.com to get the ball rolling!
Bust portrait of a necromancer wearing an violet cape with twisted metallic pauldrons, leaving his chest bare, revealing a ribcage tattoo. He has sharp golden eyes, brown skin, a long braid of black hair, sharp nails and bony ridges along his brows. There's a spinal-column-shaped staff across his back. Bust-portrait of an anthropomorphic mouse wearing big chunky goggles and a loose turtleneck under makeshift armor. He has warm, tan fur with lighter patches on the snout and cheeks. He holds a bright pink potion which is most definitely explosive. Bust-portrait of a muscular elvish woman with a half-shave haircut. She wears a leather vest with a wide cross-belt, which leaves her arms exposed -- they are covered in scars. She has amber eyes, tan skin, freckles, and long, pointed ears. A curved, polished blade is visible across her back. Bust-portrait of a warforged monk. Their chassis is brassy and decorated with floral patterns, and has accents of silver and dark, polished wood. They wear an open, flowing blue robe, and have a wooden quarterstaff across their back.

I think about this comic a lot
A four panel comic, featuring various drawings of a cat, a ceiling fan, a potted plant, and a closet. "It all seems very mundane", is written. "but one day you'll miss it, when you see the photos"

Walk On, Weetrill, page 29 🔮🍃

Takest thou thy seat, Weekin. I shall join thee anon.

#webcomics #comics #graphicnovel #illustration
Page 29 - 1 - The leaf-walled elevator rises and comes to a halt with a squeeky ‘skreeeek’ onomatopoeia. Weetrill is now in a bright, cheery room walled by the leaves of the forest canopy. 2 - Weetrill looks down in surprise as The elevator gate opens all on its own with a ‘kink’ onomatopoeia. 3 - Weetrill is holding the locket tightly to his chest and looks around uncertainly Weetrill: …Magpie? 4- A massive reveal shot of Magpie’s home in the top boughs of her tree. The room is wreathed in leaves and branches on all sides, with sunlight beams dappling in. Weetrill strides away from the elevator. There is a massive pile of trinkets and treasures to his left, most of them shiny. There is a pink floral human-proportioned teacup to his right, sitting on its side so that small creatures can sit on its lip like a hooded seat. In front of Weetrill is a massive, vacant bird’s nest, with a small ladder leading up to its lip. In the background there is a human-proportioned book at least 4 times Weetrill’s size, flipped open with some magical text on its pages, held open with a magenta bookmark. To the side, there is a tunnel through the branches leading to an unseen room. Magpie’s voice calls out from that direction, out of sight. Magpie Witchbird: Takest thou thy seat, Weekin. I shall join thee anon.

"You say you only used AI for placeholder text, but in that text was a response from the AI saying 'here's a revised version'. Here's what I don't understand - why revise placeholder text? You see my problem? It just doesn't make sense to me. Why revise something nobody was meant to see, unless..."

South of midnight is one of those games that has stuck with me well after playing it. The way its soundtrack is worked so fully into the story threads, and how each song is slowly built up and revealed over the course of levels was an artistic coup.
