So GTA6 made a collectors' edition statue that they sell for 400$ (as part of the box) that looks very AI made. Hours after release the internet already has 3d printable models available.

Its fascinating to see the cost of housing being a huge problem in the western world. Spain went into protest mode after an 80+ year old woman got evicted, the left party in Germany brings dispossession of housing giants into play in Berlin.

Ich überlege auch, was für Patreon interessant sein könnte. Arbeitsprojekte für Kinderbücher? Prozesse mit Kunden/Verlagen - wenn diese ok damit sind. Online comics? (Viel Arbeit) CSP/ PS Dateien? Pinselspitzen? Youtube - Kenne mich mit Videoschnitt etc. ja gar nicht aus.

About a month left to the convention, a few appointments with clients, meeting artists, a signing session and after hour party. Sounds good. Now I will try to make some targeted portfolio pieces in time. Realistic vehicles is first on the list. I made a few for the Godzilla game like these:

QRP with your moon art 🌕 The Halloween witch. - I have surprisingly few images with a moon in it.

A green skinned withc in a black dress sits on her broom, showing her legs and stockings. She has white hair and yellow yes under a huge pointed hat. A bat flies next to her in front of the night sky. The style is comic like and fun with stylized shapes.

I do not care to play GTA6, but I am really interested in all the technical tricks, know-how and what new stuff they developed to render all of this in such a way. Ambient light, ray tracing, refractions, a unique rag doll system procedural generation for entire rooms... wow.

So Disney finally wants to make a new Darkwing show. While it doesn't sound like they stick with the version from Ducktales (the new one will be voiced by Mark Hamill) I am optimistic. Since most of their cartoon remakes and shows are quite good if not great.

Now it's official: There will be a new "Darkwing Duck" series on Disney+. Reports surfaced five years ago that a reboot of the popular '90s animated series was in the works. Now it seems nothing stand...

The Fisherman, by John Langan. I enjoyed the audio book reading on Audible a lot. This is lovecraftian horror at its finest. It focusses around 2 men that bond over fishing after tragic losses and the question, what you are willing to give or ignore to make the pain go away.

Markus Erdt @markus-erdt-art.de · 25/09/2026

To my great and pleasant surprise, the new He-Man movie was quite enjoyable. It was comedic, very self-aware of it's silliness and even Leto made for a fun mustache-twirling Skeletor. If you know the old cartoon and toys, then this movie is for you. Luckily the movie only spends 15 minutes on earth.

Clayface in October, Dune in December, Werwulf in January. I didn't get around to watch the new Spiderman recently, and I am not really all that interested in Doomsday either. How about you guys, what movies are you looking forward to?

Markus Erdt @markus-erdt-art.de · 23/09/2026

Ashoka S2 is coming too. And I wonder if they improved on anything. In S1 the writing was meh, the characters meh, the fighting meh... I didn't like the show at all. The big question is, can they make Thrawn scary and smart or not?

HBO Potter: Well, it LOOKS good. Not much more to say at this point, really. Except, that it feels so close to the old one that I wonder why I would watch it? If this has been animated instead I would be much more curious about it. (art by Rion)

Darn it Blizzard, I played WoW back in the day and now you are trying to pull me back in with what's basically Turtle WoW? And the thing is, it would work, if it wasnt for the 15$/M. It gives me the feeling that I HAVE to play, instead of playing when I want. But man, do I want to play again. ^^°

I will be visiting the "Spiel 2026" in Essen again this year. But because of my time away, I am already very late for appointments. Instead it seems that I will be taking some time for a signing session at the Iello booth for King of Tokyo Godzilla. The times has still to be announced.

This looks really interesting. I am not used to seeing something with mixed media from Japanese anime.

I am finally back. 2 weeks hospital and 3 weeks of rehabilitation are done. Thank god this is still free in Germany. Now onwards to work, sketches and working through everything that has piled up over the time. Trying to manage stuff from a phone or even tablet is awful compared to a PC.

Found this on Pinterest. And it made me wonder, what kind of pin needle one would need to put a sculpted clay spider on it and how? I kind of like the idea of having a little bee sittingon my vest. ^^

Markus Erdt @markus-erdt-art.de · 29/06/2026

Every now and then I enjoy sculpting. Minis usually, but I also like looking at these. There are a lot on pinterest & Etsy for sale: Leafs, owls, shrooms etc. (Although thanks to AI I can't say if they are all real nor not) What would you use to make these (for sale)? Wood, clay, 3d print?

Oh hell yes. I mean, Primal was already pretty close. I kind of thought he would become Conan in the end after never speaking his name. ^^ I love his work. I would also love to see him do a Warhammer short.

Ich frage mich, ob auf Conventions eigene Kunst zu verkaufen hier in DE/EU funktioniert oder nicht. Falls ein Künstler aus DE hier ist und selber auf Messen und Events verkauft, würde ich gerne mal chatten. #convention #deutschland #EU #artconvention

I am currently thinking about new revenue paths. Offers at local schools about art, online courses, tutoring perhaps. Conventions or online stores in general. - Or something else entirely, like payed DM for role playing. ^^ #money

And some examples of the monster boards as well as the standees. #MEart #boardgame #gameart #comicart #kaiju #retroart

The boards show King Ghidorah standing in a Japanese village, destroying it with his breath attacks and the second board shows Rhodan, flying over a harbor, picking up a boat with his beak.

With King of Tokyo - Godzilla finally out, I can begin sharing the illustrations I made for the board game. So here is the Cover. There was a lot of positive feedback for the art style in particular and great interaction with fans during the fair in Bologna. #MEart #boardgame #comicart

I haven't really had much in terms of private commissions since 2025 and I wonder if it has to do with AI, the economy or if my reach just isn't big enough. Or maybe I have to do some NSFW stuff. ^^

The motion capturing that you can do today with a rather basic setup and still get results like VTubers is really impressive. This doesnt even have anything to do with AI as far as I know. It makes me curious as to where this will go, and how it might change movie making options too.
