Day 24: Yutyrannus

Who's tyrannus? "You's" tyrannus!

This is the final gift in my calendar. Thank you so much to everyone for following along!

#ArtAdventCalendar #Art #DigitalArt #PaleoArt #SciArt #Dinosaur #Tyrannosaurus #Winter #Animal
Digital cel-shaded artwork of a big fluffy white yutyrannus, a tyrannosaur known for being covered in feather-like stuff. This one was rendered like a polar bear, with off-white proto-feathers and black skin for absorbing as much of the sun’s heat as possible. The dinosaur is hunkered down with three of its tiny offspring, each sporting their own puffy winter coat, on an isometric chunk of snow. Two of the tyrannosaurus siblings proclaim their dominance on top of the dinosaur, while the third snuggles up under the parent’s teeny two-fingered wing. The yutyrannus perches on its own tail, using the feathers as insulation for its big clawed feet. Sunlight drapes along the dinosaur’s back. Watermark: http://hmcgill.art

Day 23: Trilobite

Any guesses on what will show up for day 24?

(In the meantime, Try-a-bite!)

#ArtAdventCalendar #Art #DigitalArt #PaleoArt #SciArt #Trilobite #Invertebrate #Bug #Animal #Nature #Purple #Illustration
Digital cel-shaded artwork of a purple trilobite trucking across an isometric chunk of sea mud. Trilobites are generally shaped like giant roly polies, with segmented bodies and heads shaped like crescent moons. Its eyes are multifaceted and protrude from the sides of its face. As a member of the Kolihapeltis species, this trilobite is particularly blessed with spikes in its shell. It has four long spikes coming out of the back of its head, one spite originating from each ‘eyebrow’ bump, and two additional spikes jutting from where the base of the head meets the body. It has spikes generously lining the sides of its body like it’s half sawblade or something. It has numerous armored, segmented legs that end in sharp points…you could say those are spikes, too. Its tail is also… Wait. The tail is not spiky at all. It’s round and fin-like, or maybe it’s a shell, as it was hard to tell from the fossil. Either way, this animal is 90% no-touchy.

Day 21: Tully Monster

"I Can't Believe It's Not An Invertebrate!" might be the worst margarine brand name ever. What do you think?

#ArtAdventCalendar #Art #DigitalArt #Tullimonstrum #Carboniferous #PaleoArt #SciArt #Paleontology #Fish #Animal #Weird
Digital cel-shaded artwork of a Tully Monster, which is a hagfish-adjacent pink wiggly worm fish from the Carboniferous. It has a long, ribbed body with soft pink flesh, encased by protective slime that imbues it with a purple hue. It has a tear-shaped fleshy tail, primitive ‘pore’-shaped openings lining its sides for gills, zero limbs, and a head that is probably going to take a hot minute to describe well so hang on a second because I might as well write my will and testament at the same time. Okay. Here we go. Its eyes are shaped like a preschooler’s craft project, with each orbit glued onto either end of a narrow stick, and the stick has been awkwardly glued onto the creature’s head, right on top, no care for aesthetics. It has a long, stiff trunk. There is a raised hole in the trunk’s base on the front of the head that could be a misinterpretation of other reconstructions on my part, because I have no idea why there would be a hole there. The trunk itself looks very unbending cartilaginous to me on most reconstructions, with a stiff ‘elbow’ in the middle to bend it. For this composition I chose to make the trunk even bendier. The trunk has a fun surprise in the shape of a beaky mouth full of too many lamprey teeth. So what is this tully monster even doing here? It is suspended inside of a pond over an isometric chunk of pondscum-covered dirt and rocks. Tiny pinecones have fallen into this pond, as well as some twigs and stray pine needles. The tully monster hoists a spare pine tree branch over its head, with no idea what to do with it, because during the Carboniferous trees were literally just stacking up with nothing to break them down and return them to whatever cosmic hole the Tully Monster slithered out of.

Day 20: Archaeopteryx

Is the ‘P’ silent on this one, or not?

#ArtAdventCalendar #Art #DigitalArt #Archaeopteryx #Dinosaur #Bird #Nature #Beach #Animal #SciArt #PaleoArt
Digital cel-shaded artwork of an archaeopteryx in a moment of exasperation, as it swooped onto the beach only to find out that a yummy thing flashing in the waves was merely an empty scalloped shell. The archaeopteryx is a dark bird with flashes of magenta iridescence across the wings, teal shine to its tail, blue shimmering from its pinions and head, and a little gold gleam in a scruffy feather collar around its neck. The scene takes place on an isometric chunk of beach sand with the thinnest, shallowest reach of an incoming wave stroking its surface. Watermark: http://hmcgill.art

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are pressed together, cuddled up and simply enjoying each others' company, eyes peacefully closed. Green: You know what's the best part of the holidays? Blue: What is it? Green: All our problems are next year's problems. All can wait until January. While Blue's expression remains peaceful, Green opens his eyes in realisation to his words. Blue: Except for that thing in the sink. Both of the foxes turn to look at something coming in from outside of the comic panel, with slimy tentacle-like tendrils reaching towards them. Green: Oh right. We should probably do something about that.

Day 19: Plesiosaurus

Sea reptile chases fish in kindly style


This monster is real amiable
sort of freak, just
keeping pace.

Has very wide smile.

#ArtAdventCalendar #Art #DigitalArt #PaleoArt #SciArt #Purple #Ocean #Nature #illustration #Reptile #Animal
Digital cel-shaded artwork of a plesiosaur at the end of a failed lunge to catch one of ten fish. The plesiosaurus is giant, whale-like, with its vertical tail poised upwards in the seawater, and its head brushing the sandy seafloor. Clouds of disturbed sand float around the plesiosaur’s head, long neck, and fin. This plesiosaur was drawn from the more modern idea that giant sea animals have a lot of blubber. This means its neck starts out as thick as its belly and then tapers, evenly, to the width of its narrow head. The fish being hunted are yellow, with red heads and purple rainbow fins. The whole scene takes place on an isometric chunk of seafloor, during a sunset that stains the sand and rocks violet-pink. Red corals perch on a corner of sea rock nearby. A sad little fish skeleton can be seen buried in the sand. Watermark: http://hmcgill.art

We don't use AI to make our games. Anywhere. Not concepts, not prototypes, not placeholders. It's not that hard to just copy and paste the word "placeholder" several times or drop in a stick figure or orange square, but apparently that's too much effort for a multimillion dollar studio.

Are we bragging about this in an effort to earn virtue points? Yeah, but the fact that that is a thing is kind of horrifying. Shouldn't the default be that you have people make things? Shouldn't that be the assumption? We shouldn't earn anything for saying this. It should just be the expectation.

So whenever any game developer tells you to just deal with it, suck it up, AI is inevitable, it's going to be everywhere and every game, every single game is going to be using it as a tool? Nope. We're the exception that disproves the rule at the very least. It's gonna stay that way.
