Temperatures dropping and rain on a day makes spiders crawl into your home to stay. I’m incredibly arachnophobic, buuuut … I’ll do my best not to scream when drawing them 😅

I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses

News on Nightshade/Glaze. 1. We're testing updated Glaze for new NVidia GPUs 2. We've (finally) identified the source of the "True" bug in Nightshade. Good news: we can fix it. Less good news: it's in a error reporting routine, meaning there was an underlying error that triggered it. 3. more to come

Some private commissions I had the pleasure to paint over the past years. Since I’m no longer posting stuff on the “other” site, I thought posting older works here from time to time, would act as a nice stroll through memory lane. You know, back then when the world was a little less complicated
