i have made numerous pictures since that one but nothing good but here are some more old ones #bimshwel #portfolioday #lope #dope

a cartoonish scene filled with dessert items and a few foolish imp-like creatures

pair of strange robotic creatures beside a smaller frog-like being in and abstract metallic vaguely urban environment

an annoying imp called dope hangs on to a street lamp in a strange place and disgusts a legless reptilian sort of creature also hanging on to the lamp. a bird perched higher up seemingly ignores this. the scene is depicted entirely in 6 distinct "color"s

tall anthropomorphic vaguely bird or lizard creature in a strange outfit accompanied by a smaller more bird-like companion, standing on top of a strange quadruped that is swimming in the air or a liquid orb, in front of a chaotic series of city-like structures featuring occasional onlookers

or no i should have made it get even wider. and that actually might have bothered me less since it would look more deliberate and less like i screwed up but i obviously was not spending enough time looking at the reference material

it bothers me that the axe's wooden part gets wide suddenly and then narrow again but unlike some other aspects of the picture that is accurate

lani concept art showing height relative to the player character zidane and what the axe looks like without colors or its owner inhibiting view of it

lani's in-game model also showing the axe prominently

an unexpected benefit of having a really stupid telegram name is scam accounts introducing themselves by saying it at me with no context

telescam says "frabaginarf" and nothing else

thank you! maybe i will try that. yes indeed it seems like the straps always go into that spot, though the werewolf variant i am making has a differently shaped head since i am just as confounded by french cartoon anatomy as by guitars

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

have you ever seen an electric guitar with the strap attached to the part with the little knobs on it? i cannot seem to find a photograph of one to use as a reference for a picture that includes a figure similar to this, but i also know nothing about guitars

i imagine that when i am dead i will want people to know better things about me than that, but more likely i will have more important things to worry about, or probably nothing at all on account of being dead and incapable of further thought, but i can IMAGINE otherwise right now.

020

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

because i just learned marmelmm has been dead for six months and i thought the name looked familiar, and then was reminded of this, and i do not know much else about the person

you aren't fooling me with those communion wafers

a ghostly legless Liang Xi floating high above a vaguely detailed han dynasty era city in china sez: "Gold shall flow into the city like never before" while offering forth a small roughly egg-shaped object that can be interpreted as eucharist pieces from a little basket

he probably saw a little card with text printed on it a moment before he said that and didn't have time to try and process what it meant and then never thought about it again

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

as often happens i had an amount of information that did not fit in the box and then i had to cut it down in a way that made the information less coherent! social media is not designed for information, if it is designed at all.

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

I think it is the same version, it just wasn't made specifically for nick arcade, although the wording on the page isn't totally clear, but i also don't care that hard about a game we already have 300 massively scrutinized betas and prototypes for

110

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

some dorks who grew up playing space invaders and pac man made a game show around that concept but superficially tried to make it resemble newer games they didn't understand and contestants were brought in based on proximity to the studio rather than being qualified or interested

040

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 13/10/2026

i never liked nick arcade because it was clear that nobody involved actually cared about video games and it was always uncomfortable to watch. the players were bad, the host was clueless, the challenges for the players to complete on real games made no sense and the final round just didn't work.

i love when i know that clickbait is lying so i can block the thing without bothering further. there is a prototype of sonic the hedgehog 2 unofficially named by obsessives after nick arcade even though it was actually for 1992 summer ces and was FOUND nearly 2 decades ago tcrf.net/Proto:Sonic_...

Nick Arcade Has a Lost Sonic Game Named After It? NO it does not
the thumbnail text says instead "THE LOST SONIC LEVEL?" which is not the same thing as an entire lost game but neither is the case. the picture is at least not ai but i still have no patience for this sort of framing.

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

it had been more human-like once but still isn't quite lani

resembles lani slightly more than before but still is not completely accurate

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 12/10/2026

it had started as human but i remembered how much better my rodentized utena, which had also started human, seemed to go over better than my usual piece so i thought to try the same thing again

if he did that is still one thing fewer than a broken analog clock gets right twice a day.

in this case the country is brazil but it has the same attitude of "i am entitled to attention and hopefully money for recycling other people's old property" common in united americonia. the videos are non-narratted and for all i know the AI plays the games too

youtube dorks use ai thumbnails even when the result is nearly identical to the picture they want to replace. i legitimately enjoy that i can still see grid lines from the fake art machine not knowing how to interpret that aspect of the input despite it being instructed to replace the grid with sky

Danan™ The Jungle Fighter sega master system box that was supposedly only released in europe

i inadvertently saw a few bits of ai video when i tried to verify the non-scamminess of someone who sent a proposal to me, and it still looks creepy. if the waste is already obscene and unprecedented for THIS, how much worse will it need to be before non-creepy fake video is hypothetically possible?

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

evidently there is at least one book presenting that premise

from https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2026/oct/10/havana-syndrome-mystery-cia-russia:
The sociologist Robert Bartholomew and the neurologist Robert Baloh co-authored a book that declared the whole story a hoax – “a case study in the social construction of mass psychogenic illness” – borne of high-stress work environments and propagated by excitable journalists.

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

this repeatedly mentions a lack of evidence that Russia was involved or had the technology to make a weapon that could do this, and asks why only american agents report the symptoms, but nothing about the possibility of the US making such a weapon itself and using the thing on its own agents

one of my least favorite aspects of ocremixes is large amounts of spoken dialog, especially if the music has to wait for the dialog to finish, but the stupid "oh ah!" bubble sound from early sonic the hedgehog games has so far always been welcome to me.

i mean in general; obviously the present US regime wants to lean into its own war crime ethnostate destiny beyond even previous administrations who just SEEMED like they did and has no interest in doing better, much less helping anyone else do better at anything except killing permanent enemies

010

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

i saw a question recently like "why is israel the only ethnostate we criticize for that?" i think because criticism for arab states is baked into US culture. apart from its war criminals, Israel is more progressive than zones around it. it has the education and unwavering US support to do better.

wow this looks like a mess!

@bimshwel.com.web.brid.gy how do i get rid of this? and if i reply to it, what will receive a notice for it?

thank you for finding humor in it! At the time some dorks on the 3drealms forum found that page and took it VERY seriously. as it happens my present work-in-progress has a cosimo in it but maybe i should remake that old one also

she has done that before. some people just need to now and then, i suppose. the ko-fi page looks to have been updated recently

although admittedly i am usually paying attention to sanctions against nation-controlling criminals who can cheat around sanctions

010

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

the upside to this is that us sanctions don't actually work.

us imposes new sanctions on international criminal court, lifts sanctions on russia

that would be nice if i ever feel like using krita! but i already have two other programs that can do it and specifically want clip studio to be able to do it with multi-layered files. this really makes me wonder why clip studio canNOT if substantially cheaper and even FREE software can.

it famously started as a super nes game itself but was reformulated for the playstation, so the developers took time to give Badler a different color scheme but truly did not care which side the eyepatch was on despite having about 649 megabytes more disk space than before

heapinfrimp @bimshwel.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

Punky Skunk is so original that the antagonist Badler is just Wolfheim from super nes Sparkster but hatless, missing an eye and with a cape like Generalissimo Lioness from Sparkster

badler, wolfheim and generalissimo lioness, who is secretly not a female lion

it definitely doesn't happen in the new game, i am just fascinated that it ever did

ha i will have to look at that later! i have at times wondered about its speed-run potential. i also wonder if the level 0 monster glitch was fixed in a later version of the game that was not widely disseminated. i lost my disks ages ago and i don't know that i saw level 0 trash when i had that one
