Keep seeing more artists apologize for not posting because they're working full-time jobs, and either the day job is not art-related, or they're under NDA. Really sucks that it's harder to build something and/or connect with people because you're not doing more work on top of work.

showing my brother how pokemon used to put in a lot of effort into animating each individual creature, but now simplifies them, and we came to the definitely wrong conclusion that it's because whoever is now directing the games was the person they forced to make all those blink animations in 2000

I’m a huge proponent for making #art education (and education in general but that’s another convo lol) accessible and affordable, and I genuinely love these creators for being informative + entertaining at the same time youtu.be/A4EnUjNN4n0?... youtu.be/AXJDQAC-a1Q?... youtu.be/w9G03puU5hk?...

I’m honestly so proud of how much I have here from my very first life drawing class literally ever, as basically a purely amateur artist who was literally stRUGGLING with anatomy the day before this (and still am but erm it’s a process lol)

Hey friends I’ve been doing a lot of #art stuff in my character design class! I’m not gonna share the concept art cause I wanna use it loll, but I also took my first ever life drawing class the other day! It was honestly great, it wasn’t as awkward as I originally thought it would be. Here’s that :)

I love learning the underlying logic of games. Some things are reasonable and some are like "the most expensive objects give you the best env stat, except for the 0.50c MicroMachines truck. Because the developer had one when he was a kid, so he decided to make that the fanciest object in the game."

giving gamers a very obvious waterfall cave they can’t enter just to be a little gremlin 12 more hours of work yesterday, and a few touch-ups from today :) I still have a massive to do list (like adding foam to the edges of the water + ideally a tide animation and painting a bunch of #3D models)

Hi friends, I hope your day is going well. Here are some sleepy #cat pictures :) Look at him, trying to deny the call of the void. But he’s an eepy boy. He cannot resist. And there he goes.. o7 sleepy boy, you fought the hard fight for as long as you could. We all must give in to the eepy.

the nicest thing you can wish upon an artist in 2026 is that their work gains a small but dedicated cult following of kind hearted and politically shrewd weirdos & sickos that keep the fire going. the meanest thing you can wish upon an artist in 2026 is that their work gains a large online fandom

TONEDEAF is an #indie #animation project by youtube.com/@potoostudio... that deserves way more attention. There’s so much heart and passion behind it, and I really relate with the topic of substance abuse/self harming behavior as a creative person youtu.be/jNt-LjocJNA?...

Dendron 64 by @asyrofox.bsky.social is one of the most important #indie #horror series Ive ever watched. Its elements of queer and feminine horror resonated really deeply with me. they just recently started releasing Volume 2 and I can’t recommend the series enough! youtube.com/@dendron64?s...

L E G A S P I L I V E hi all I’ve been drowning in this 3D environment design class Ive been taking, it’s going great but I don’t have any progress shots from today because I died on the couch after *checks watch* 10 hours of staring at unreal engine and photoshop. enjoy this ss of scrapped work:)

unreal engine jumpscare. this was a water shader I spent an ungodly amount of hours making a texture for, fucking with normal maps for, and watching a tutorial for until I finally managed to make it… and then subsequently hated it and scrapped it and opted for a Nintendo Style Toon Water™️ instead that I made in 20 minutes. I will show you that next time I remember Bluesky exists >:)

Just a PSA that if you’re struggling with art block or perfectionism, you should use/develop your skills to make silly things. Today I UV unwrapped a model for school and it looked like this. Did I have to make it look like this? Probably not. Sorry prof at least it’s got a base

Please watch this video from @monikacinnyroll.bsky.social, it’s so important. As soon as I heard of the twitter AI situation I knew this would be a tool for revenge porn and, as Monika clocks it, digital rape. This shit is serious and people need to be outraged at this youtu.be/nF87dKlaRgs?...

Hey there 👋 My name’s Jenji, and I’m an aspiring artist and a game development student. I’ve always known I wanted to be a game developer. As a kid, I loved creating creature designs, and thought I’d become an artist. Then I fell out of art and found a love in programming.
