I should mention they also paid me significantly more than what I quoted them with a very generous counter offer. I guess I did that typical artist undervalue self thing. Good people

The store I work at paid me to design them a new playmat and card sleeves themed around Vancouver and MtG mana lands. The first prints for the playmat finally arrived today! Im so excited! If you're in Canada and want one, you can order it here www.raincity.games/products/pla... :)
A playmat illustrated by me depicting Vancouver landmarks as Magic the Gathering Lands

We had a falling out years ago, so I guess I can consider myself ahead of the curve. This is such a bummer, man

They also willfully disregard consent

While licking the boot of capitalism and pretending this tech, built on scraped work against the consent of everyone, can ever be ethical under such a system, do you remove your fedora first?

Yes, not being willing to debate you, some random troglodyte who thinks beating the ever loving daylights out of a thesaurus equates to intellectualism, surely means my views are invalid. You are the elected arbiter of such things, naturally. Go back to moderating an obscure reddit or something

Gen AI users are the incels of creativity. They are oblivious to their own shortcomings, feel painfully entitled while also are completely unwilling to do the work to get what they claim to want.

Finished my first paint-for-hire gig, and orc kommando unit for Warhammer Killteam. Had so much fun pushing myself on this. Excited to paint more

Important: corvo using a box i was delicately, temporarily storing meticulously organized arkham horror cards in, that i covered with a blanket to keep him from getting at them. In hindsight, cardboard box plus soft blankey not exactly my best thinking when it comes to cat detterents
Corvo living his best live all comfy on top of a boxCorvo sleeping blissfully
A mess of former organized cards

The boardgame store I work at has offered to pay me to paint minis and terrain for them. Serious question, do i get to call myself a professional mini painter then? Coz that would be a dream come true, but goddamn the imposter syndrome is strong with this

Daredevil Born Again is great, and for a fan of the character it's a relief that it turned out so good. Props to everyone involved. The casting is especially perfect. Gotta shout out @jonnybernthal.bsky.social punisher, continues to understand Frank on a level few have. Just incredible stuff

Oh man, I would LOVE to draw more for this awesome idea. Im a much better artist now :)

A few decals were directly used but the entire graphic language was lifted from the artists style

I think the compensation would have to be mind blowingly substantial considering how core to the identity of the IP the art is at this point

Like, this just doesn't happen by accident, ESPECIALLY in AAA

Steven Blomkamp @sblomkamp.bsky.social · 17/05/2025
it can start there but usually there's whole friggin departments for this stuff. At a studio like bungie there is no excuse, this is blatant. A friend wanted to put a pic of his cat into spider verse, and legal had to comb the image to make sure not a single pixel was anything copyrighted

Steven Blomkamp @sblomkamp.bsky.social · 17/05/2025
The bungie situation is unacceptable. I don't see how they could make it right at all. The whole look of the game hinges on the stolen art. Do they not have any protocols for checking their content? That's like, standard practice in other studios and industries. You can't blame a random ex employee

You probably heard that Magic the Gathering is releasing a cross over set with Final Fantasy. What you may not know is that they're also unveiling this curious "card holder", but only fits the Aerith card...

"AI is coming, its inevitable" no its not you sniveling weirdo. how are those 3D TVs going. how are NFT markets looking these days. Seen anything cool in the metaverse lately? anyone who says we need to resign to using it, that itll be here whether we like it or not, is a feckless dipshit.

Every single person who uses generative AI is either yet to be educated on what it is, or is shameless parasite who doesn't care. There's no excuse. Incendiary viewpoint? When you learn what it is, how it works, and still choose to use it... it's more just blatant facts than me being incendiary.
