Behold, a pokemon team! I've been wanting to make characters out of my Champions team for a while now. We have a mix of new and old characters here, and even one who got completely redesigned. It was fun designing them and thinking up team dynamics, so I hope you guys like!

Just heard #PaxUnplugged is going full Human Made. Proud of em, it's my favorite gaming con. And it's nice to know they'd prefer to present the works of real creative human beings. That's one less sign booths need to make, but if you'd like to anyways, here's a free icon hinokodo.itch.io/human-made

Browsing Pinterest earlier today and seeing an image within a search result and then seeing an AI edited version of that same image just a few scrolls down made me sick to my stomach

Cairn by @yochaigal.bsky.social taught me you can strip out a lot of bloat and waffle to get a game that sets up and plays super smoothly without losing any of the vibes and fun.

If you wanna bring back and revive all that retro and vintage tech that you either grew up alongside or just think is cool to have, you're gonna have to get comfortable with getting your hands dirty and a little tech savvy. Not everything was a simple plug-n'-play like many things are now.

DO NOT ask yourself whether your art is GOOD. instead ask: is it SINCERE, is it CATHARTIC, was it FUN TO MAKE, is it MADE BY ME, and don’t forget to stay silly

the lessons we need to take are clear. Dolly said "find out who you are and do it on purpose", and Tim Curry's line is "don't dream it, be it" they would both be disappointed if we wrote that off as corny. so what? it's necessary. we have everything to lose if we are dishonest to ourselves.

This a thousand times over. All the greats knew way more than just having comics knowledge. They used that broader understanding and absorption of wide varieties of media to enhance both their art AND their writing

Question for all the Blender users out there, do you use rigs for all character based work? Or can you just get away without character rigs? I’ve been meaning to delve more into using Blender for 3D illustration stuff and I’m down to experiment with all sorts of different methods and such.

i hate it here :( #art #comic #TaxRaptor #noAI
A six-panel comic starring TaxRaptor, a cartoon austroraptor. 
Panel 1: TaxRaptor happily holds her purse and car keys, saying "I love going out in my local area and avoiding psychic damage from the internet." 
Panel 2: TaxRaptor is driving and behind a vehicle with AI slop stickers on the back. 
Panel 3: TaxRaptor is seated at a booth in a local diner with AI slop "artwork" on the walls. 
Panel 4: TaxRaptor is walking down the street and passes by a family of hadrosaurs wearing AI slop shirts. 
Panel 5: TaxRaptor sees a pachyrhinosaurus selling at a booth, saying "Thank you for supporting local makers!" The products next to them are AI slop on cheap plastic products. 
Panel 6: TaxRaptor looks exhausted and horrified, her HP bar is showing red health.

Get comfortable engaging wirh media that isn’t what you consider “professional standard”. I’ve felt more from eight page zines made by one person than $150 million budget soulless blockbusters.

During breaks I've been toying around with my old Macbook and turning it into a selfhosted homelab of some sort. I have no idea what I'm doing 100% of the time but I've been learning a lot! And it's just a fun little thing to deep dive into! :3

I'm gonna be real I do not think I can realistically get to everyone's artfight revenges. I'd really love to but between a bunch of busy things happening irl and some burnout from after completing a masters degree, I might not be able to get around to everyone, and I dearly apologise. :(

I think I've always loved the 4:3 format. I'm not entirely sure how to articulate it properly but there's something really cozy and roomy about it compared to the 16:9 format that we're all used to on modern screens and such.

We desperately need more games that are not afraid to be goofy as hell. I couldn't care less about the next cinematic AAA title or another re-re-re-re-re-re-remaster of The Last of Us I just want games that are balls-to-the-wall goofy and just revel in its own kitsch

Been itching to pick up a Playstation 2 at some point, soft mod it and just sit down and play some games with it. It’s a console I’ve wanted for years, and it’s still crazy that there’s a lot of games from its vast library that I probably don’t know exist yet.

I often feel like 6th generation (Dreamcast, Playstation 2, Xbox and Nintendo Gamecube) was the absolute peak of console gaming, whereas 7th generation (Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii) was amazing but more of a "jumping the shark" moment for everything
