Hey, #PortfolioDay, I'm Si Sweetman. I'm an illustrator and character designer, I vacillate aesthetically between sci-fi, dark fantasy and funky little guys. I'm looking for work, as usual.

An illustration of the dawn over a wintery halfling town, its twee architecture dwarfed by a massive temple of Samothes. In the midground a crowd gathers around a windswept execution platform. In the foreground Fero Feritas walks away, with regret, from the encaged Gnoll, Mother Glory, awaiting her execution. Did you try to save her? A kneeling armoured figure cups their hands together to catch blood poured from the wrist of a witch standing above them. Blood is spattered over their face and armour. The witch wears a massive headgear from which an umbilical of bloody tubes attach her to an abstract blob of blood, fraying into hexagonal strands and baby faces. Three little reptilian guys careen through the air with urban detritus. A car, a bin, a power line to which one clings desperately. Behind them in the clouds a colossal serpent whips through the sky, it's fleshy triangular mouth opens, eyelessly, towards them. A Sleeper from Citizen Sleeper hunched in a fetal position in zero g, clutches an open terrarium growing plants and mushrooms. Their tools float around them in in the air, along with droplets of water spilling from their irrigation tank. The sleeper is clad in overalls and a mylar cloak to keep their electronic components dry.

Conference. Personal work, 2023.
In a sea of darkness, underlit by eerie green, a greencloaked figure kneels in the ripples. They offer a long sheperd's crook and glowling ball of greenish liquid to the lilac hands in front of them. The hands are cupped together. They dwarf the figure. Their forearms show odd veiny structure that opens up into nothingness, their flesh become a lattice, with nothing but void behind it.

So an anime girl with prosthetics was labeled "explicit sexual content", & then we learn that prosthetics are commonly labeled this way, & then we learn that automod has been outsourced to this ai company, & THEN we learn that the ai company might be using all our images to train ai & mods go silent

The pacing of the first Ju-On film is kinda buck wild. Fuck a slow burn, we ain't got patience for investing in a character. Next ghost! We got bodies to get through! Quick, flash to the future to kinda spoil the end. Alright we're back. Next ghost!

Chew through until your flesh becomes as wings and your teeth as feathers. Deliver unto us your wisdom.
On a decorative panel made to look like parchment sits an angel made of teeth. Hands emerge from its central maw revealing a glowing triangle. Over top of its toothy wings reads "Brush Your Teeth" in a vaguely medieval font.

Normal Dog. Personal work, 2021.
A normal-looking dog with all the regular features: big, scaled tail longer than it's body. Yellow speckles over purple skin. Gelatinous neck and head. Visible brain. Human teeth. Regular stuff.

When you realize how long it takes for a single tree to become fully mature and how many trees it takes to be productive... This is just one more method of *generational* violence.

Hundreds of olive trees were seen uprooted by Israeli forces in the villages of al-Mughayyir and abu Falah near Ramallah, in the occupied West Bank.

anyone who invokes anti- or post-humanism (both things I'm totally fine with) but who focuses their love and defense of the non-human on, for instance, the machine that gives you imperfect answers in a perfectly obeisant tone, and not the non-human things devastated by that machine, can fuck off.

truly hilarious that this is an attempted attack on ai critics. yeah being mean to chatgpt is eugenics. saying sam altman shouldn't be able to steal the entirety of human creative output for profit is genocide. words don't fucking mean anything
if you’re writing a sentence that sounds like eugenics but you go “oh that’s fine to say because it’s not a real person” (whatever that means) you may want to consider what made you okay with saying that

It'll never be lost on me that a particular subset of the liberal commentariat in both North America and Western Europe were deeply infatuated with this woman up until the very moment she decided to talk about that one issue you're still basically not allowed to talk about lol.

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

Hallowstream is the best streaming series going, which sometimes plays a game and sometimes sits on the pause screen for an hour and a half to have a discussion about contemporary art, or archival practice, or what if there was a tiny Michel Foucault.

looking into the article, important part to it is this was initiated by italian unions, making it possible to organize such action at all. which reinforces for what and why such union restrictions exist in america. keeping labor down doesn't just generate wealth, it also suppresses other movements.

At one point the game gives you a puzzle that is begging you to look at it and go: oh yes, I remember Return of the Obra Dinn. That game is better than this.

The final DLC for Rise of the Golden Idol introduces one of ancient Lemuria's weirdest, funniest inventions to date, but is also unfortunately the weakest of the 4 in both the story it tells and the puzzles it presents you with.

Between this and Shadow of the Erdtree I really hope we're seeing a peak of developers going: the way to make our next thing is to make it harder; to make every enemy spongier. That is not what drew me to the games, initially, and it's not why I've stuck around.
