Sorry I appear to have dropped off the planet. Ever since the hospital stay through March thanks to gall bladder complications, I've just not felt any arting mojo at all. I'm currently just trying to find my feet again. Sends mojo if you got it. <3

...I never posted the finished one wtf I've been out of it a while. :(

Gordon Freeman and Alyx Vance, both nude and reclining on some piled up bedding in her workshop, it seems. They are entwined and staring intently at each other. Gordon's hand is agains her collarbone, fingers on her cheek, and his glasses are propped up against his forehead. Alyx has her hand over his forearm.

Since I know they will do it anyways, I'd rather have the disclaimers warn me about the AI inclusion so I know to give my money to someone else vs being sideswiped after installing it.

3rd match we got the women. Their experience both hits around the decade mark. In the other matches, the guys are winded by round 3, but the gals feel like they were really just getting going. I'm still learning how the judges are counting hits, so everything looks like a lot of grappling so far.

I am alive! I have survived the ordeal of narrowly avoiding sepsis from my gall bladder gone bad and am healing up ok, but now comes the ordeal of the bill which part of just landed. I dun wanna have to beg again but I got no real income atm. Thanks, Capitalism, I hate it here. >:|

Reference vs Art I join in with "your reference can look entirely ridiculous and still give you great information". DAZ 3D + Blender. I'm a very strong believer in making your own references. Whether it's selfies, 3D software, traditional sculpting, friends posing... there are so many great ways

I had to have another procedure to follow up a blockage, and it sorta irritated my pancreas, and they kept me to make sure it didn't erupt into sudden pancreantitus. I am so tired of being a shitty pincushion from all the ivs and blood draws. Im prolly gonna sleep for 3 day back at home.

Don't go into the pool.

A mother and child play in the pool. Their heads stretch, extending upwards in long tendrils and leaving the frame.

Two children swim in the pool. Their heads stretch out, twisting and branching until they leave the frame.

A busy pool. Two people presumably swim inside, as their heads have extended into large masses that stretch out into the sky.

A chainlink fence with a sign that reads "POOL CLOSED". Behind, in the distance, enormous masses of what used to be flesh cover much of the sky.

when everything is just so depressing I can’t even, I go back to this thread which has over the last 4 years made me smile more than anything I’ve ever seen on social media. I adore everyone & everything in it and will be grateful for its existence for however long we are graced with it. ❤️

there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for

The funniest part of being stuck here have been the techs- they always come in a group, working around each other, stealing my blood, throwing meds at me, changing IVs, asking 200 Qs- then they all fuck off at the same time. It feels like being mobbed by pigeons, every time XD

well, your gall bladder doesn't control anything the pancreas does, so...yeet that pancreas!

oh man- another 'HI!' *shank* illness I hope no one has to experience. Glad you survibed that one!

artphobos @artphobos.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

Yeah. The realization of how close I literally was to having sepsis freaks me out. I mean the gall of that bladder to commit war crimes on me (since it also triggered cramps and the worst migraine I have ever had)...

artphobos @artphobos.bsky.social · 02/03/2026

Also may I suggest looking at marine/navalsea paintings from the 1800s as well. I have found some of those are even BETTER ref than some of the photos I find.
