#Drawtober day 9: TROG. The thing that should not be. The invader. The beast whose blood devours. The destroyer of visions.

TROG, the villain of The Legacy of Dominic Deegan.

Oh, Darel was definitely Callanian. 😄 But alchemy as a practice is widespread.

Sam Altman said people are just gonna have to die in order to implement AI. In the very same week, Anthropic claimed it’s a human rights violation to be mean to the computer. These people need to be held accountable. They think lines of code are a person with rights but living people are debris.

Not necessarily. Alchemist is Semashi themselves, and alchemists of all ancestries were pictured in the first page of this story!

#Drawtober day 8: BOMB TARANTULA. This is an inside joke between me and my friends that would take too long to explain, so just enjoy a tarantula with an explosive device.

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

#Drawtober day 7: SWARMER. Is this a swarm coming together to mimic a human, or falling apart after spending too much time as one?

An ambiguous picture of a vague swarm either coming together in the form or a person or falling apart from a humanoid shape.

#Drawtober day 6: THE HANGED (STRAW) MAN. I drew another tarot card for inspiration and it was The Hanged Man. Got the idea to make it a scarecrow. I think it works nicely.

A friendly scarecrow strung upside down like The Hanged Man tarot card.

there’s one true answer but it’s the correct one five minutes after game of thrones - the last true monoculture show - ended, we all collectively agreed not to talk about it again, and house of the dragon/knight of the seven kingdoms haven’t recaptured a fraction of that cultural presence

When I was a kid the near-perpetual joke about the French was “they love to surrender.” Nowadays it’s more like “the French do not fuck around when it comes to protesting” and it’s no joke.

The article is just as justifiably venomous as the headline and worth a read. Fuck this guy. I hope the next time I'm forced to look at his name there are a pair of dates beneath it.

#Drawtober day 5: Six of Swords. I needed something to draw for today, so I pulled a tarot card at random and it was the Six of Swords; troubled waters on one side, calm shores on the horizon, a boatman guiding a mother and son through the transition under the protection of the vessel's blades.

My interpretation of the Six of Swords tarot card.

#Drawtober day 4: EXPLOSIVE RESULT. I've got alchemists and weird potions on the brain lately, so expect more of this sort of thing this month.

An alchemist in the aftermath of having just poured one mixture into another, and the result blew up in their face.

#Drawtober day 2: FLUID METAMORPHOSIS. I love drawing Alchemist from my comic's current storyline, so this is a variation of their transformation.

Alchemist from The Legacy of Dominic Deegan with half their face human, and the other in their flowing fluid form.

On top of that, I love it when my friends change theirs and I spend a moment going “wait, who’s this?” It’s like I’m seeing their Halloween costume for the month. 🎃

I'm going to say something that probably sounds naive or sentimental, but the one thing thing that really sticks with me about the backlash to generative AI is how many people are now calling attention to human effort in art, with all its rough spots and imperfections, as something to value

Some beast-born are more animal than human, so it’s still pretty close. 😇

#Drawtober day 1: GHOST FACE. It's October, so it's time for the daily art challenge! I won't be following any prompts this year, but rather going with whatever spookiness appeals to me in the moment.

A ghostly face with three eyes and an ill-defined smile, reaching out with small ghostly hands.
