Im honestly majorly peeved by how Link’s outfit looks. He doesn’t need all these hyper rendered leaf/crocodile textures to look interesting. It just screams boringly over designed.

The Apes of Bamiyan, approach the mysterious Buddha, who meditates in the form of a radiant Orangutan

Fun Fact: I modeled the background after the Lithica Quarry of Menorca, which is located near Ciutadella, which is Spain. And naturally loosely inspired by the Buddhas of Bamiyan, Afghanistan.

“A friendly hint in the maze” while wondering in the extensive halls of the adobe maze, our hero befriends a brightly colored macaw. Click the alt button for more info.

This scene is my second attempt at a study of the ruins at the Chaco Culture national monument in San Juan County, New Mexico. Funfact: the Macaw population use to extent all the way up to the American Southwest.

To this day I’ve yet to meet anyone that has given me an reliable yet easy to digest definition of for “Post modernism”. Best way I can explain it so far? If Modernism tells us “this is art, and this is not” then post-modernism says “IS it art? Why is A art, and B isn’t?”

Old concept art for an OC called Xmaben, "The missing Olmec". Much of his story (if I ever get around to materializing it) revolves around him searching for other surviving Olmecs. As well as completing labors (Hercules style)

Perhaps his toughest labor is snuffing out the fog in the abandoned and haunted city of Chan Naj (Mayan for "Cloud House"), and slay the wicked spirit Xtaambay (Mayan for "Phantom"), a servant of Camazotz (The Lord of the Bats, and one of the many rulers of afterlife, Xibalba)

Xmaben (potentially) final labor is ascending all the way up an inexplicably tall and mountainous pyramid where the top is protected by a legendary warrior who has NEVER been defeated (his armor gradually breaks apart during the fight). But does Xmaben know that he too is one of the few surviving members of their kind?

Probably Xmaben's least ominous labor is awakening a mountain golem (who possesses aerokinesis) from her beauty-rest, emerge through the air, and perform her another one of her revered wind operas once more.

This is Kabah's ghost, who was intended to be Xmaben's very first labor in the story. A jaded, grumpy, and bitter spirit who's soul is linked to the Mayan city of Kabah, and trapped within a giant idol which he animates using his wind powers. Xmaben's task would be to help Kabah's ghost rest once and for all by exorcising him out of the Idol. But beware, he's irritable, with a short fuse and a lousy attitude.

Watching Teamspeak’s “marketing campaign” against Discord is like watching a scorned lover publicly bad-mouth her ex unprompted, and rather than the people around siding with her as she is hoping, they instead give her weird looks.

I noticed almost nobody says “troll/trolling” all that much as of typing this. They call it “rage bait” nowadays, it just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Can’t believe I didn’t upload this when I finished it, but here you go. My first painting of 2026. It was originally created for an event called “AA Radio” at the Artoholics Anonymous Discord server. Basically you make something based on a song an anon participant sends you.

“Operation Mombasa” Funfact; this background was modeled after a Brutalist style Railway Bridge in Nairobi National Park,Kenya.

I’ve fumbled on the perspective, I wanted it to look like a crowded metropolis. Actually, it’s meant to be a reconstruction of Xunantunich (in what is now Belize). But there wasn’t much to work with, since it’s not as neatly preserved as Palenque and the likes.

2/2 make fun of Deviantart all you want, but uploading artwork and displaying a gallery was infinitely better. It was much more organized, and with enough tags, you could always easily find what you were looking for the search bar of each artist’s page.

El Rey @elreychipinque.bsky.social · 08/09/2025

1/2: I do not get the appeal of moving to a site like Tumblr or Twitter for artists when they want to relocate their portfolio. Scrolling near endlessly to find one particular artwork of theirs sucks, scrolling’s the LAST thing I want to do.

By that extension, despite popular belief, “All Star” wasn’t first used to promote Shrek. It was actually first used in a movie called “Mystery Men” which predates Shrek by 3 years.

010

El Rey @elreychipinque.bsky.social · 02/09/2025

My favorite funfact from the first Shrek movie is that Smash mouth’s “All Star” wasn’t actually meant to be used in the movie’s intro (but a placeholder until they composed an original song). But, the test audiences loved the All Star version so much, they took it as a good sign to just keep it

And by that extension, despite what most people may think, “All Star” wasn’t created to promote Shrek. It was actually first used in a movie called “Mystery Men” which predates Shrek.
