Forged in Sun, Built for Worship

A casual, vintage-grain 1980s Polaroid captures a close-up muscle study of a superhumanly stacked bodybuilder standing on a sun-blasted beach. His Herculean pectorals dominate the frame like twin armored shields, distorting the lens with their sheer mass. His skin is richly slathered in glossy suntan oil, glowing like molten bronze beneath the blazing coastal sun—every vein, striation, and tension-cut fiber throwing liquid highlights as he flexes with a slow, smoldering glare. His narrow, cobbled waist only heightens the impossible vastness of his chest, while sweat beads shimmer and trail across the rippling surface like living mercury. In the softened background haze: crashing white waves, glittering golden sand, heat shimmer rising in analog distortion. The titan wears a tight emerald-green thong stretched taut across dominant hips, showing the shape and outline of a thick circumcised cock and large testicles. Atmosphere of erotic tension, devotion, and radiant excess. Artistic influence: Peter Paul Rubens’ Baroque excess fused with 1980s beach-fitness Polaroid realism. Harsh sun flare, blown highlights, subtle motion blur, analog color shift, film dust, light leaks, slight edge warping. Hyper-detailed erotic realism, cinematic composition, retro fetish photography energy. homoerotic, veiny muscle, morphed muscle, detailed bulge, boyband handsome face

朝から #飯テロ

本日、ご縁の国・出雲にていただくこのぜんざいは
まさに神在の御馳走。

江戸期の文献にも記されたという神在餅（じんざいもち）の伝統が
紅白の丸餅に宿っています。
艶やかな出雲大納言小豆は、大粒ながらも皮が薄く
舌の上でほろりととろけます。

その甘さは深く上品でありながら、微かな塩気が全体の輪郭を際立たせ
縁結びの良縁をもたらすかのような、格別の幸福感を運んでくれます。

歴史と神話に裏打ちされた、特別な和の甘味です。

Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere : Maybe one of the best movies I have seen in 10 years. A film about believing in your artistic vision. It's a movie about choosing compassion under challenge circumstances. It is completely against the grain of rock biopics. Worth your time.

The image shows a dramatic scene of a four-lane highway with moderate vehicle traffic stretching into the distance. Overhead, an airliner can be seen flying low across the sky. In the background, enormous waves dominate the horizon, crashing fiercely and appearing threatening as if a storm or tsunami is approaching. The sky is a dark blue, contrasting with the light-coloured, frothy waves. The image conveys an intense, possibly calamitous moment captured as if just before impact. The image depicts an aerial view of the Earth's surface covered by extensive cloud formations. A vast expanse of white clouds stretches across the lower half of the image, with a few gaps revealing the darker land and sea below. The sky above is a deep blue, contrasting sharply with the bright white clouds. Several smaller, lighter, isolated clouds are scattered in the upper portion of the image. In the top left corner, there is a noticeable pinkish-brown smudge or light flare effect, likely a camera lens artifact, with a soft gradient blending into the surrounding sky. The image displays a distant aerial view of a mountainous landscape with a prominent, unusual vertical streak pattern resembling spikes or jagged peaks extending upwards from the mountains. These vertical elements appear brighter and more luminous than the surrounding terrain, suggesting an intentional, artistic effect or a photographic anomaly. The scenery is viewed under a bluish tint, which covers the entire landscape including a body of water at the bottom left corner. Above the horizon, the Earth's curvature is visible, indicating a high-altitude perspective. The edges of the image contain a dark framing with alphanumeric codes, suggesting a scientific or technical photograph. The image depicts a dramatic scene where a vast ocean wave engulfs a city skyline. In the foreground, a few skyscrapers, with one that resembles the Empire State Building, stand prominent against the backdrop of churning waters. The wave, white and frothy, dominates the middle and background of the image. It appears as though the buildings are partially submerged, emphasising the immense scale of the wave. The sky above is a dark blue, contrasting sharply with the lighter shades of the turbulent ocean. The image has an aged, textured appearance, with visible scratches and grain, giving it a vintage look.

Can't remember if I've ever done #PortfolioDay but why not 😌

Hello I'm RemKin, a disabled and queer artist/writer who focuses mainly on original works/my own stories & characters

I'm hoping to start making comics soon 👀 as well as being a part of other projects~

Some art peices I did recently:
A painting remake/redraw of a screencap/screenshot from episode 3 of the indie animated show The Amazing Digital Circus, titled The Mystery of Mildenhall Manor; created by Gooseworx and produced by Glitch Productions. Painting/fanart by the artist @BurakkuHardt The painting shows the character Kinger, walking down a corridor/pillard hall, from a zoomed out perspective as he glows brightly. There are stairs in the foreground, and barely visible stairs further away. The artist has taken an artistic spin on the scene by painting swirls of light coming from Kinger, as well as shining beams and a powdery mist. You can see specks of light floating around, representing the lost damned souls. A digital drawing/painting art piece of artist @BurakkuHardt's OC Baby; Baby is standing in a public bathroom stall full of graffiti, looking up at the viewer as if they are taking his photo. He has one hand up, a 3-fingered peace sign over his eye, and his other arm is lower, another 3-fingered peace sign but this time with his arm in a neon teal/green cast with "Property of Lucca" written on it. The angle of the drawing has a slight birds-eye perspective, with the viewer looking down at Baby from higher up. He has neon green/teal buzz cut hair with pink yellow and blue colored smiley faces dyed into it, with two areas left uncut to form mini multi-colored space buns, as well as two multi-colored rats tails in the back. Baby has neon colored facial and body piercings, with face tattoos and body tattoos all over, and his top row of teeth are gold plated. He is wearing a neon tang top connected to baggy pants suspender style, with a neon pink fishnet crop underneath with a collar, and a chain connecting the crop to his underwear, and a pink see-through raincoat. He has a dark spot on his lip as if it had been bit, and hickey bruises on his neck. A semi-realistic drawing/painting done in an almost comic book style, where the artist BurakkuHardt has redrawn a screencap/screenshot of the MCU movie Iron Man (2008) where Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey Jr., is sitting in an army jeep that has just been attacked; the image is mostly the dark interior of the jeep with a scuffed window being the only light source. Tony has his arm up, bracing himself as he looks on with a careful expression trying not to show fear. His hair is tussled and his eyes are glossy. There are hash textures and Ben Day dots adding to the comic texture, as well as a slight grain and textured watermarks. A digital painting of a rural area in a Midwest asthetic; the buildings are cramped together and are generally unkept- broken chain link fences and weeds overgrown. Two children (Corey and Skylar) walk without shoes, scrapped up and bruised, balancing on top of a stone wall. Corey has his pants rolled up, covered in bandages, with a bruised face and bloody nose. His head is down, looking at where Skylar holds his hand. Skylar walks with more confidence, facing forward, but is covered in large miscolored bruises. He wears stained socks, a shirt and large T-shirt, as well as a straight long haired wig. Overtop of the drawing are doodles drawn in white pixel ink- both of them are outlined- Corey with down turned wings and an arrow through his chest, and Skylar with a halo, small wings pointed up, devil horns and a pointed tail. There are lyrics written with the same style pen: "I took a trip out to the city, said 'i'll be home before you miss me' so I never came back" and "make me forget, tell me the lies, make me believe I'm better alive" The painting is framed with a tilted black boarder, causing a bit of visual difference and unease. Melancholy, nostalgia, surreal, serene, memories

Shot a second roll of my usual test subjects w/the Yashica Mat 124G. Jury is still out on shooting 120 with a TLR. Viewfinder is dim and hard to focus. Perspective is weird. Makes some dreamy images, though.

A black and white film photograph of a forest clearing viewed through dense foliage. A wooden fence runs across the middle of the clearing, with trees and thick vegetation framing the scene on all sides. Dappled sunlight filters through the overhead canopy, illuminating the open space. The film grain and contrast enhance the atmospheric quality of this woodland scene. Alt text by Claude AI. This black and white photograph shows a circular sewer manhole cover embedded in cracked asphalt pavement. The metal cover features raised text around the perimeter that reads “SANITARY SEWER” and “BALTIMORE COUNTY” with decorative geometric patterns in the center forming a radial design. The cover appears weathered and shows signs of age, with some debris or sediment collected in the recessed areas. The surrounding asphalt shows typical wear patterns and small cracks, creating texture in the monochromatic image. This type of infrastructure photography captures the often-overlooked utilitarian elements of urban design.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Alt text by Claude AI This black and white photograph shows a concrete wheelchair accessibility ramp with white metal handrails on both sides. The ramp features vertical spindle railings and appears to be part of a public walkway or building entrance. The ramp makes a turn or has an angled section, demonstrating ADA-compliant design for accessibility. The surrounding area includes well-maintained grass and mature trees visible in the soft-focused background. The image has the characteristic grain and contrast of film photography, suggesting it may be a vintage or artistic documentation of accessible infrastructure design.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Alt text by Claude AI This black and white photograph shows a vintage fire hydrant standing on a grassy area near a sidewalk. The hydrant appears to be from an earlier era, with a classic design featuring a domed top, side outlets with protective caps attached by chains, and what looks like manufacturer markings or text on the body. In the background, there are residential buildings with multiple windows visible, though they’re slightly out of focus. The image has the characteristic grain and contrast of film photography, giving it a nostalgic, documentary quality that captures a slice of urban infrastructure from what appears to be several decades ago.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Alt text by Claude AI

The contrast between the wood grain and the glossy nails reflecting the light, the artistic aesthetic of black and white to accentuate the sensual lines and shapes of your fingers and toes, and your thighs fading into the distant light bokeh - makes one want to reach out for coziness 💕

Woodcut by Caribbean-Canadian Artist. Bold black pier cuts diagonally through swirling waves: a testament to resilience amid turmoil, likely symbolic more broadly. "Cutting against the grain"—a challenging artistic feat.

had a dream where i met someone with a settlers of catan inspired fursona so here’s my artistic recreation
a sketch of a cartoon sheep with a blue body and four multicolored arms; he is holding an axe, a trowel, a pickaxe, and some grain. He has a multicolored hex grid on his stomach, analogous to a Settlers of Catan game board.

Imagine a painter—doused in hallucinogens—with the audacity of Alejandro Jodorowsky and the delicate cruelty of Ronit Baranga, trying to create a savior machine out of disassembled TVs broadcasting people’s most awkward limbs in sharp focus. Negative space drowns everything in a vacuum the size of your regrets. Francesca Woodman’s ghost flits by, clicking her tongue at your lack of artistic insight while Claude Cahun smirks in the shadows, probably crafting a witty insult about your taste in art.

A magical cupcake on a rustic wooden table, inspired by a blend of Art Deco fantasy and whimsical fairytale village styles. The cupcake has glowing, iridescent frosting with golden swirls, and delicate, luminous details resembling flower petals and dragon scales. Surrounding the cupcake are tiny glowing sparkles and soft, ambient light, giving it an enchanted aura. The wooden table has rich textures, and the background features soft, dreamy colors with hints of stylized plants and distant cottage-like shapes reminiscent of a magical forest village under moonlight. A majestic, hyper-detailed cupcake with a sculpted dragon emerging from the frosting, sitting on a rustic wooden table. The frosting is shaped into a coiled dragon with wings unfurled, curling upward from the cupcake as if about to take flight. The dragon’s form is bold and elegant, with stylized ridges and curves that mimic thick, painted swirls of frosting. The dragon features a dramatic color palette: deep cobalt blue, fiery red, and golden orange, all blending with painterly, textured strokes reminiscent of an oil painting. Its scales have a realistic, sculpted look with a soft sheen, and the wings are curved like icing blades, highlighted with glowing sunset hues. The cupcake wrapper is dark chocolate brown with golden decorative dragon motifs in an elegant, brushstroke design, echoing the artistic style of the frosting dragon. The wooden table has visible grain and warm tones, grounding the fantasy in realism. The background is an abstract, impressionist-style fantasy landscape, painted in sweeping strokes of orange, blue, and violet. It resembles a stormy sunset sky or a magical forest, giving the scene a powerful, mythical atmosphere. The lighting is warm and cinematic, with dramatic shadows and soft glows enhancing the sculptural quality of the dragon and the texture of the wooden table. Style keywords: realistic cupcake, sculpted frosting dragon, painterly texture, fantasy creature, rustic elegance, impressionist background, vivid lighting Lighting: soft, golden-hour dramatic light Format: square Focus: sharp on cupcake and dragon; background softly blurred but painterly

This black and white photograph shows an artistic still life arrangement on a wooden surface with prominent grain patterns. The composition features a variety of natural objects and decorative items thoughtfully placed together. In the foreground, there's a distinctive spiky, round object - likely a sweetgum ball or similar seed pod - with numerous sharp projections creating a dramatic textural element. A white ceramic plate or dish with a hexagonal honeycomb pattern serves as a central focal point, containing what appears to be a necklace with dark beads or stones. The scene includes various rocks, stones, and mineral specimens of different sizes and textures scattered across the wooden table surface. A dark rectangular object with white text (appears to read "FIVE PIECE POKER DICE SET") is positioned among the collection of natural specimens. Large plant leaves extend into the frame from the upper portion of the image, creating graceful organic shapes and adding depth to the composition. The monochrome treatment emphasizes the rich contrasts between textures - the smooth ceramic surface, rough stone specimens, spiky seed pod, and soft plant foliage - while the dramatic lighting creates interesting shadows and highlights that give the arrangement a contemplative, artistic quality reminiscent of classical still life photography.

I never posted this here, but I made a pretty big write-up over on Tumblr for anyone interested in learning #pixelart!
It's a guide on software, fundamentals, jargon and resources.

Since links are legal on Bsky I can share it: www.tumblr.com/tofupixel/75...
#tutorial

Hope someone finds it useful!
A screenshot of a tumblr post reading: "Title: So you want to learn pixel art? Subtitle: Part 1 of ??? - The Basics! Hello, my name is Tofu and I'm a professional pixel artist. I have been supporting myself with freelance pixel art since 2020, when I was let go from my job during the pandemic." Two images comparing artistic improvement, the left is of a rudimentary tree, and the right is of a statue in a wall recess surrounded by plants and dappled light. "My progress, from 2017 to 2024. IMO the only thing that really matters is time and effort, not some kind of natural talent for art. This guide will not be comprehensive, as nobody should be expected to read allat. Instead I will lean heavily on my own experience, and share what worked for me, so take everything with a grain of salt. This is a guide, not a tutorial. Cheers!"

Adding my grain of salt on this one: he is robot related, and I really like your robots :D Also, he is quite cool and very flexible in terms of poses and additional design (part of why MegaMan X is such a hit is the additonal armors), so there's space for some artistic freedom!

I'm extremely pro-having-a-menu-option.

I know that there's an artistic vision, but some people (like me!) get splitting headaches when we have to look at film grain. I would love people to be able to see the game as intended - but I also would like to be able to play it myself!
