Bringing up old matters and qualms of the past is like turning on a heater on a hot day like why on earth would you think about doing that

If I ever get big as an artist idk if having my work labeled as “gooner bait” is a sign I’ve made it into the big leagues or if it’s an insult

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.

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

my hot take is some of y'all need to stop only reading comics. read prose, go to a museum, learn scrimshaw, wtfever. go be an interesting person first because i can TELL when people don't ingest anythiinnggg else but comics

I think we should bring back drawing four fingers/toes or less on animated characters

gleefulsketch @gleefulsketch.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

Nothing against doing 2D drawing or animation, in fact that's my current wheelhouse and something I enjoy a lot! But I've also had a longtime wanting to make 3D things as a kid, so now having the knowledge and skills to do that is awesome

gleefulsketch @gleefulsketch.bsky.social · 22/08/2026

I think moving forward I definitely want to lean more towards 3D art with my personal work and all sorts of creative work in general

Lowkey VR is one of the biggest vaporware scams in the video game industry right now the return on investment into a piece of hardware that ends up being a VRchat birthday party machine 10 out of 12 months in a year until a new unity game comes out will never be worth. credentials: vr enjoyer

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.

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 coded a web app that xerox's your images for fun! Just drag an image in and play with the dials. If nothing shows up (or it's all black) you may want to play with the threshold (first slider). Press "S" to save the image! editor.p5js.org/Chaoclypse/f...

Thank you to everyone who sent me an artfight attack/revenge thing! And I dearly apologise to those I wasn't able to reach during the event. Perhaps I'll be much better prepared for the next one! <3

gleefulsketch @gleefulsketch.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

I didn't get as much done for #artfight as much as I wanted to due to post-degree burnout and being busy with other stuff irl but I had fun!! I am contemplating doing it a 3rd time next year but we'll see

ArtFight has been really fun and I am super grateful for all the cool art I've received and the connections I've been able to make! This is only the second time I've done ArtFight but I do feel I have to prep myself a lot better for this even for next time. 🙏

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. :(
