Did a lil picto pic for a FF14 FC friend of mine :> #FFXIV

A picture of a Mi'qote pictomancer from Final Fantasy XIV. He's wearing overalls, a white shirt and a tool beg with a little viera plush hanging from it. There is a great colourful trail going from his palette to his brush.

Once a month, someone posts the same picture of movie James Sunderland with the really fake beard and it makes me scratch my non-existent facial hair in discomfort.

Was looking at the Silent Hill Townfall concept art and my jaw dropped. Was back in my hometown tonight so I had to go and take a photo. There are many ways to mock my beloved Coatbridge, but “your home’s so miserable it was used as concept art for a Silent Hill game” is a new one for me

NEW ARTICLE NEW ARTICLE 9yrs, 9 months, I was burned out and almost dead. It made it hard to do my yearly roundup. Let's talk about 2017 was one of the most important years of my life, and how these games shaped me as an artist. ...if I can remember them all. docseuss.medium.com/i-completed-...

i completed 52 games and 8 pieces of downloadable content in 2017.

The "Skip clash" button doesn't work 70% of the time because the auto-battle A.I. Will always make the worst decisions when left on its own. But that's okay because I just spit my drink laughing at the result

This is a piece of advice I always give when I consult: you need someone to have final say. Even in a co-op, even in a group of peers. There needs to be someone who can say “okay, we are implementing this” someone has to take on responsibility for the decisions
