Artists quote with your faces :3c
An orc woman with a scar on her face looks sternly at the viewer A jester with tassles and brass adornments on his cap looks to the viewer through half lidded eyes A satyr man with dense, curly hair and long sheep's ears stares softly into the distance Siren looks to the viewer through their droopy half lidded eyes

Share your couples art: Neapolitan edition
November rests on his knees bent over and holding Siren up over the ground by their waist. They share bite marks and bruises and gaze at each other longingly Siren sits on November's lap facing him and caresses his face. November sits in Beaux's lap with Beax's arms wrapped around his waist. November has one arm on Beaux's and one around Siren's waist, and all three look to the viewer Siren stands between Beaux and November with one hand caressing November's face and the other wrapped around Beaux, while Beaux and November interlace fingers Beaux, November, and Siren sleep together in an uncomfortable entanglement of legs wrapping around one another and somehow still managing to be in a deep slumber

Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt
Edit image button

Users are noticing Twitter/X has added a Grok-powered AI image editor that lets anyone edit any image on the platform, including other people’s artwork using text prompts.

Artists warn there’s no opt-out or consent, raising concerns over unauthorized edits and misuse.

Quote with an old piece you still like :^]
Sanji Vinsmoke on his back with his legs bent overhead, casually smoking a cigarette and wearing only boxer briefs and dress socks with garters. The trail of smoke forms a heart at the end.

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

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

This is such a bad take I had to block the person no matter how many smart people I like follow them lmao

This is presumes that all creative output must be availed to the public. This is stupid. You do not owe everyone a behind-the-scenes look at your development if you don’t want to.
There's a discourse that basically goes: Alice: But I want to use Al to do art Bob: Just do it yourself Alice: But I am not good at it Bob: Just be bad, and post it on the internet, it's fine! And Bob is lying, it sucks, you will get savaged as anyone who has taken a picture of their dinner knows.

Funny animal videos no longer being trustworthy just fucking sucks all around. I love the wonder of animal behavior and what it says about the experience of being alive. It's because it happened in reality that it's so fun. It's not fun if it was just made up. There's no wonder there.

Speaking of newer works, Please meet the four characters of a new game project in the works
The Antiquitor, The Harpy, The Devil, and Bubblegut
A man in early to mid 19th century attire leaning on a bird skull cane A large sphinx being with a mask-like face, four small wings surrounding its head, and a large eye set upon its chest and a spiked halo floating in front of its face A goat man with horns forming a pentagram around his head sits casually as if floating A little bastard of a demon with bat-like features and a much too tall top hat. He looks more like a stuffed animal than a living thing, or perhaps bad taxidermy

Ahhh all of my dragon age art is quite old now but I will include more recent examples of work below, because I do indeed take commissions 🌟
The elf Inquisitor stands before a mosaic of elven art holding a dagger delicately near his face which reflects his eye in the blade A portrait of Dorian from Inquisition with his longer concept art hair A portrait of Anders from Dragon Age 2 A portrait of a qunari looking over her shoulder

Dot and the Shade of Naemon by @velnna.bsky.social. 👑
#eso #esofam
Dot stands with her back to a (practically towering) Shade of Naemon. Her hand is reaching up above her to stroke his face. His hand reaches around her throat, gently cupping her face.

Just a reminder that at least 600 Americans were fired for failing to show sufficient respect after Charlie Kirk's murder.

a tarot like illustration of Zevran Arainai from Dragon Age Origins surrounded by crows. he's doing the hush hush gesture and is probably headed for the window, because when was the last time he used door anyway he has a golden halo and a golden dagger which has a golden halo of its own

Using genAI for concept art is so fucking stupid because like... that's where you get the cool shit. Thats the blue sky phase where artists make pieces of art that will be seen by a teenager later and change their life forever. Why would you want to start from mediocre. Why would you do that.

AI bones are inherently brittle, and anything built on them will rot.

“Oh I only used AI for placeholders or idea starters” does not make it better! If you are using it for any part of the creative process then you’re no longer doing the process!
duckvalentine.bsky.social Rebekah Valentine @duckvalentine.bsky.social · 10d
"placeholder text" "concept art" either the temporary thing you put in matters to the process, in which case you need to get a human to work on it, or it doesn't, in which case you can just as easily put a bright pink rectangle that says PLACEHOLDER in and save everyone time and effort

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone

- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware

but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

Unfortunately my friend had to say goodbye tonight to his cat of 10 years, Kitty. The #gofundme will remain up as he and his partner have still accumulated significant debt in trying to help Kitty. Shares and donations are still very appreciated.
