Realistically speaking, to think that anything less than full abolition of ICE is acceptable at this point makes you look ridiculous. If you want to keep it you might as well be shotgunning every racial slur you can think of out of your mouth at once.

Also while I'm here and thinking about it @bsky.app if you guys are trying to get people to leave your app, you're doing real good at it great work. If you aren't, you may wanna review those community guidelines. Banning art helps nobody, have some thicker skin and some perspective.

Getting out-of-the-blue likes on my posts is always a fun tossup of "did some AI scraper roll up on me" or not.

Very cool of #Andor to feed me source material for a One-shot ttrpg session of an ISB raid.

In the interests of settling a minor discord dispute @infinata.bsky.social do the clones earn a salary or earn credits in any official capacity?

After much suffering the lineart my wonderfully self destructive vampire hunter Ancil du Tallencourt is finished! #oc #dnd #dndart #krita
Lineart of Claude Ancil Frederic du Tallencourt, a Blood Knight Fighter from out of the old Dark Arts Companion. His family was destroyed by vampires, and so he's gone to the land of the biggest vampire in town, Barovia, to settle the score. He's modeled after duelists of the variety of The Three Musketeers and Alatriste, with the bonus of being able to cut himself to set things on fire or make a quick blood rope to get out of trouble. 

He's a hedonist, living every day like it's his last (or so he says) which is what drew him to fellow party member and showgirl Remora, who has tempered him a bit since their first encounter. They're great

Did some late night doodling for some of the player characters for Hounds, good practice for doing their art for real in the future. #starwarsoc #starwars #ttrpg #oc #art #krita
Prefect Hendryk Nodd, modeled after Steve Buscemi, wearing a Galactic Republic naval officers uniform (with some service medals) over a fur lined coat with ribbing down the sleeves. I couldn't quite get an expression of paranoia out of him, so in effect he looks exasperated, which mood.Captain Ramsay, modeled after Temuera Morrison, wearing classic clone trooper armor. I've elected to forgo his usual shoulder cauldron just for this bust but he'll have it in the final design. His blank, smirking stare belies great fury.Locke (or Sergeant Hex as he's known before the timeskip), modeled also after Temuera Morrison. He wears clone armor, but with that distinctive Tartakovsky jedi robe-clone armor combination, as he is a Jango clone with force powers (It's complicated and he was born like 3 years ago). His hair is done up in a bun and ponytail combo.Dot, a Kaminoan, which was an interesting test of proportion control. Not much character to be cleaned from the bust other than that she's a long necc tied to rainy eugenicists, who cannot help but feel mischievous with that little smile and the glasses (Kaminoans are apparently bred to be genetically perfect, so the glasses are a bit). The eyes, though simple, I'm rather proud of on this.

I'm doing a redraw for the next Halls of Giants character, cause the linework originally was one flat color as opposed to what I've been doing for the rest of the characters, and frankly her pose was a lot less interesting. But the wheat. The wheat confounds me.

It's been a good year for personal projects, I think. I'm firmly back on the wagon in terms of art. Next year I want to do more work with shading, to finish some badly delayed maps, and plan for Hounds.

Another of the main characters for In the Halls of Giants, the setting I write infrequently, here's Neshecarem Arashcar, or Neshca! #art #oc #digitalart #worldbuilding #krita
I'm really happy with Neshca's design, it plays to all the clothing aesthetics I'm trying to cultivate about the setting. The short sword at his side is based upon one from Luristan c. 1500 BCE or thereabouts. Neshca himself is a prince of the Empire which rules much of the region the story is set in, caught between the history and tradition of his family and the horrors which support its dominance.

Work continues on developing stuff for the Star Wars campaign, Hounds of the Republic. This is the Mahto Tasso S570, a luxury two seater speeder of the Mid Rim. (still not doing shading until at least next year) #art #oc #starwars
The Tasso S570 is based on the De Tomaso Mangusta, an Italian sports car of the late 60s and early 70s. I do think I could have done more here to greeble the thing but 1) that would interfere with the clean lines that make the Mangusta cool, and 2) being that its a luxury speeder, it feels more appropriate to make this more seamless. As it is, the speeder has two ports to support subtle forward blaster mounts, important for Republic Senators with a keen desire for subterfuge.

The first character art I've done for the PC Republic Prefect Nodd, in my upcoming Star Wars ttrpg campaign Hounds of the Republic. #oc #ttrpg #krita #starwars
When one asks "Who believes in the Galactic Republic?" look no further. Hendryk Nodd is a true believer on a crash course with reality. The Clone Wars are coming to a close, the galaxy he thought he knew becoming less recognizable by the month. The Special Assignment Section he has weathered the storm alongside is, miraculously, mostly intact. But the battles will only get harder, the casualties will only increase. And his pension might get cut in the next Senate Bill.

I can only assume the long necked cat thing is an evolutionary radiation in response to the decline of easily accessible catnip shrubs. With only taller strains available the creatures are drawn into a runaway specialization which will result in an inability to act as generalist.

In addition to some other projects I'm spinning like plates rn I'm doing custom NPC portraits for my DnD campaign of 2 and a half years, Tarst. Here's the first, the most precious little emperor of the Nightmares (and half brother to one of the PCs), the Turhan Kashin of Arsinoa #dnd #art #oc
He's a young king at iirc 15? He's got a lot of work to do and he's inherited a kind of post-Alexander the Great situation since his dad kicked a few years back. Luckily, the Nightmares like a king that can fit in a box, and his direct relation to our Tiefling Sorlock Kin cemented their loyalties. Will he succeed in righting the troubled ship of state? Who can say when dealing with legal uncles that ride dragons or control a third of the economy or make deals with the old fae Commonwealth? He's got a good head on his shoulders and that's whats important.

He's also great because I get to hit the players with big questions about protosocialist class conflict or the legacy of genocide or complicated ethno-feudal obligations through the lens of this lil guy who's doing his best.

He'll be fine.This is also the first legitimate drawing I made of the lil guy because he's a little shit sometimes. People with purple eyes be like

Two of the 5-6 members of the main character party for the In the Halls of Giants setting I'll maybe write sometime :,) Really satisfied with how these guys turned out, no I don't know how to render that's a next year kind of goal. #art #digitalart #krita
Emishten Alcar Deramal (or just Emit), he's the closest companion of the mc Neshecarem (Who I will one day actually draw to my satisfaction) and the moral weather vane of the group generally. Hailing from a peripheral part of the setting's empire while retaining a heritage in that empire's vestigial cultural roots, Emit navigates a society which has forgotten the past that created it in the rush to legitimize its bloat and absurd wealth. Califarn, the prince from afar traveling to seek challenges of strength and wit. Bold to the point of boorish, reliable and naturally charismatic, he serves as inspiration for both deuteragonists Neshecarem and Yashki, to the former as a model of what he could become, to the latter as a pillar of strength to call upon when her own skills fail.
