🧵 In honor of The Witcher 3 Remastered and since it’s also October, let me reshare my Witcher themed inktober from 2019! Didn’t get to finish it all, alas, but 7 years later it’s still one of my favorite things I’ve ever done and I always love to look back at it! 1/2

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

I'm pleased to reveal the cover of MAKING MONSTERS, my grimdark SFF novel and the wildest story I've written so far. The artwork is a breathtaking masterpiece by the one and only @martinabelli.bsky.social who has once again shown that my books and her art are the most perfect match.

A black and red graphic with a hidden artwork as a background. In the middle, the cover of the book MAKING MONSTERS by Freddie A. Clark, depicting a heavily tattooed and blond man with blue eyes, dressed in leather, smoking a cigarette and holding a wooden monster’s severed head. A gun and a kopis are attached to his belt and his arm is affected by argyria, his skin grey-tinted. He walks along a cyberpunk street with writings and blood stains on the wall.

WHO’S THE REAL MONSTER?

Niko Grigg is a Benandante, a monster and demon hunter for hire. Despite his vices and snappy attitude, Niko is the best on the market. The substance he's addicted to triggers his innate abilities as a Nephilim, contributing to his fame as a highly reliable professional.
When the government of Sulphuria hires him to hunt a dangerous creature lurking in the streets of Hellgate, a maximum-security prison gone wild, Niko accepts the mission for its handsome reward.
His target is not what he expected. After their first encounter, the contract reveals its true objective and puts Niko in front of a choice: should he carry out this execution and grab the money, or become an enemy of the state?

Much as I have enjoyed what I have played, I continue to get this strange itch when I read the books and notes in game that this was all at least "cleaned up/rephrased" by AI. :< Sucks, because there's obviously a lot of love put into the game in so many aspects...

Dinge verarbeiten

Ein Comic mit vier Panels (im 2x2-Raster angeordnet). Eine Strichmännchen-Figur mit langen Haaren sitzt auf dem Boden und unterhält sich mit ihrem personifizierten Gehirn, das als kleines, faltiges Oval mit großen Augen sowie winzigen Armen und Beinen gezeichnet ist.

Panel 1: Das Gehirn sitzt der Figur gegenüber auf dem Boden und erklärt: „Negative Gedanken und Erinnerungen sind notwendig, um Dinge in deinem Leben zu verarbeiten.“ Die Figur schaut das Gehirn aufmerksam an.

Panel 2: Das Gehirn hebt leicht die Arme und fährt fort: „Und als dein Gehirn muss ich leider sagen, dass du noch SEHR viele Dinge zu verarbeiten hast...“ Die Figur blickt dabei leicht genervt.

Panel 3: Das Gehirn kündigt an: „Ich werde dich nun mit üblen Gedankengängen konfrontieren, bis die Verarbeitung abgeschlossen ist.“ Die Figur hat sich derweil vorgebeugt und packt das Gehirn entschlossen mit beiden Händen.

Panel 4: Die Figur streckt die Arme nach vorne aus – sie hat das Gehirn in hohem Bogen nach rechts weggeworfen. Man sieht Bewegungslinien hinter dem Gehirn, während es durch die Luft segelt und noch ruft: „Glaub mir, ich will dir nur helfen!!“

Our #gamescom chapter ends tonight, and we're incredibly grateful to all our fans, players, and community who showed up throughout the week, including… ⚔️ Nearly 9,000 travelers who joined our booth in the entertainment area to experience The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Songs of the Past demo

The booth is illuminated by red lighting, with The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt branding visible around the space.
