UPDATE. After shipping the first batch of orders and getting a feel for the French postage system, I'm glad to say it seems like I can ship to the US at no extra cost. The shop has thus been updated to accomodate North American orders. 🙇

I suggest all up-and-coming artists to harbor critical skepticism every time a for-profit organization uses the word "community." Even well-meaning individuals within a corporation cannot escape the economic incentives that structure demands. The end point invariably leads to the hijacking of horizontal community spaces as to insert a power dynamic in them, co-opting the human act of skill sharing for labor and economic extraction.
That is not to say you shouldn’t participate in group themed crowdfunders. Do it! Build connections, build friendships, build skills. Appropriate all you can from the system and take it with you as soon as you can. Take it from them and make it accessible, make it free. Open the door for those who can’t get in.

My tabletop fantasy dyad, Crescent and Exile, is now available for preorder at the Mythworks store. 🖤 www.myth.works/pages/cresce... All orders (along with crowdfunding rewards) will be shipping in November. Stay tuned. 🌜💫⚔️
Two hardcover books. Left book reads "CRESCENT 2E: Feelings-Delving Role-Playing" and depicts five children running away from a dinosaur. The mood in the picture is light-hearted, playful, and fantastic. The right book reads "EXILE: Dark Fantasy Role-Playing" and depicts a winged figure thrusting a blood-soaked blade out of a horned monster. The mood is mysterious, emotional, and fierce.

cara.app/em-a/ I believe the most important factor for any of these Twitter look-a-likes is that people actually use them, but while I'm sceptic, a community-backed art platform was bound to show up, and I'm hoping spaces like this can rebuild on the blueprint Artstation has left behind. Excited!
