Some of my favourites from the last year of these little studies

A series of 10 portrait studies. Top row: President of Ireland, Idris elba, Finn Balor, Frodo, Robert pattinson lighthouse guy,
Bottom row: taskmaster and Alex, RoboCop, James twin peaks, Shaun of the dead, what can I do to make you crawl around all crazy up there like a bug guy from I think you should leave

And that's assuming that the technology can do the work of a junior at the quality of a junior.

If it can't, that only speeds up the destruction because now seniors have to babysit the sabotage machine, reducing the amount of senior-level work getting done.

Gen AI can't do junior work.

I don't get how people don't realize that a technology that replaces junior and entry level positions in a field destroys that field.

There's no skipping steps. You have to be a junior before you can be a senior, and if you don't have senior people, you don't have a field.

Remember, kids: A real big goal of "AI" is to entirely sever capital from labor, and no, there will be no universal basic income, you can all just starve and die, thanks

AI is already taking jobs away from entry-level workers

Software and customer service are most at risk right now and could be the canary in the coal mine.

Hey folks, I have a freelance gig right now; but I’m looking worriedly at my monthly bills. I plan to start a ko-fi to support my art and I’ll start selling prints of existing work. But in the meantime, would folks be interested in commissions in either of these rendering styles?

I was just laid off. My role at Giant Squid is being eliminated.

If your studio is looking for an environment artist, please let me know ASAP. I have 5+ years of experience.

Well this is it. I was let go from Crystal Dynamics as Perfect Dark was cancelled. I am now out of a job. I genuinely dont know what to do at this moment but to frantically apply for as many jobs that are applicable. If anyone needs a Senior Environment Artist of 10+ years, please let me know.

Irish artists/ supporters of the arts, please check out and fill in this short survey. The Gript/ far right dudes are already sharing it on X and I'd be worried it'll get brigaded.

If we want it to be retained and expanded we gotta drown them out.

I need a bit of money because commissions have been really slow this month, so I've decided to start putting some of my own designs up for sale on vgen 🫣
