One of the most rewarding art challenges we took on in The Mermaid Mask was to make all the clues fully 3D. @catherineunger.bsky.social would paint the 2D image as always, and then @kindradantone.bsky.social modelled and painted a 3D model to match it exactly - and the results were quite incredible-

FF7 scenarios with pre-rendered backgrounds were always a mystery to me during childhood; but even to this day it's still something that amazes me. Now you can inspect every single Final Fantasy VII stage, including the 3D path + variations. #FF7 #FinalFantasy #FFVII #PS1 #PSX #RetroGame

we need to return to sci-fi book covers being little people in the foreground with immense looming wonders in the background

the cover for The Last Legends of Earth, which shows people fishing in a hamlet of thatch-roof catches while vast sci-fi pylons loom in the background

the cover of Shadow of the Torturer which shows Severian walking away from a city of spires

some art by Eddie Jones that shows people getting out of a UFO and walking towards a massive gate, beyond which is a blood red moon

tiny figures in the foreground observe a giant woman sleeping in a lake of blood

"Deranged online game designers" meant me, to be clear. Buy my game! HIS MAJESTY THE WORM is a new-school game with old-school vibes. It focuses on the human experience of dungeon crawling. Food! Light! Encumbrance! Often ignored mechanics are made fun. www.hismajestytheworm.games

His Majesty the Worm

His Majesty the Worm is a new-school game with old-school sensibilities: the classic megadungeon experience given fresh life through a focus on the mundanities and small moments of daily life inside the dungeon.

i get tired of how fandoms interact w narratives. a lot of ppl in them have this urge to put everything into separate little boxes, or to feel like just because theyre a fan of something, it belongs to them. connection isnt ownership, investment and attention arent either. its false entitlement.

The more GEN AI creeps into everyday life the more people will miss the amateur art around them. School murals done by students, hole-in-the-wall restaurant menus put together by an employee using free clipart, even "bad" paintings done at a drink and paint event-Things with human imperfections.

📏 reference sheets for Akira and Orion I made a little while back!

A reference sheet for a character called Akira Wu. She has light brown hair, and is wearing a black leather jacket over a white t-shirt and dark grey jeans.

A reference sheet for a character called Orion Tachibana. He has an inhuman appearance, with dark grey skin and slits in his cheeks that make his mouth appear much wider. He is wearing a plain white t-shirt with light blue cargo pants. His hair is black with some streaks of pink.
