A while back I was commissioned for some artwork for a fan replica of the Blade Runner Johnnie Walker bottle used in the movie, today commissioner told me that Adam Savage of Mythbusters fame got one of the bottles (and enjoyed my art!) He did a YouTube video on it!

Love working on games, but I've learned in recent years that the excitement of working on a cool game is fleeting. A safety net, time to rest and not overwork, and money for building a life and retiring are more important. The talent will vanish if the industry does not stop underpaying freelancers.

I made draw-your-own tattoo memo pads and they turned out great

Three memo pads inspired by the Yakuza or Like A Dragon game series. The first is Kiryu's torso from behind, with Trogdor the Burninator drawn on his back. The second is Majima's torso from behind, with "NO RAGRETS" drawn across his back. The third is Ichiban with Nancy on his shoulder. On his lower back, a butterfly design has been drawn in pen.

Pour one out for Y3 Remastered. Yakuza 3 is flawed for sure but there's so much heart in that original game - and the work we were able to do in making Y3R the dad game it always deserved to be is something I will forever be proud of 🥹 (it's also not-so-secretly one of my favorites in the series)

Seriously, my excitement when I first saw the artwork and knew I would get to voice a character this FIERCE. #hyrulewarriors #ageofimprisonment

Screenshot from "Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment" depicting the unlocked character Pinnec in an action pose swinging a spear. Descriptive text reads:

"A battle-hardened Rito veteran who once regarded Raphica with contempt. Over time, however, he has come to respect the young elder, and is now one of his most ardent - and senior - supporters"

Zi and I were talking about this and it's such a specific and unnecessary change that I wonder if someone from RGG saw my/other people's feetposts from Y3 Remastered and decided they'd had enough of people clowning on a serious scene

Very curious to see more of the loc for Kiwami 3 - it wasn't that long ago that the old team and I revamped the script for Y3 Remastered, but I guess some changes are inevitable for voice recording, new lines, etc. Confident the folks at Sega treated it with the care that story deserves though!
