It's the old space marines and cave trolls and hot elves conundrum... matching the crowd makes you more employable but there's a great hollow emptiness to it

The struggle I have somedays where I have a certain kinds of creature design that I love, but I wonder if drawing more mainstream type creatures would open up more job opportunities

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

The Obama Hope poster, but it's a frog and it says "Hop"

i struggle with a brain that wants to stiffly copy whatever reference i'm using and one thing i've found helpful:
1. draw big blocky shapes over the reference
2. turn off ref and redraw big blocky shapes
3. draw in figure with big blocky shapes overlaid
Traducir post

photo of model posing as an elegant elf woman that ive blocked out with a chunky red brush

in a separate window ive redrawn the red blocks, then have drawn details over the red blocks, using the photo+red transparency as reference

final doodle of the figure drawing without the red blocking

Inktober sets completely unrealistic expectations regarding output. Making a complete inked drawing in one day EVERY day for a month is insane and a recipe for burnout. Don’t tie your worth to something that even professionals believe is unrealistic.

Didn't we agreed to stop romanticing Inktober a couple of years ago bc the guy running It was terrible and the trend glorifies art as content, or what happened

The irony of spending an insane amount of money just to try and save a little bit of money

The more we learn about genAI the more we discover how useless it actually is

Reid Southen @rahll.bsky.social · Sep 23

Surprise surprise, I've been saying this for years.

Article, movie studio Lionsgate is struggling to make AI generated films with partner Runway, their catalog is too small, even Disney's is too small.

My new place is taking so long to get settled into because this is the most mouse poop I've ever had to clean up in my life

Also the previous residents had a kid and the whole place smells like rotting diapers and I need to figure out where that's coming from because it's so nasty

Hey internet hive mind! I'm thinking very far ahead for a christmas gift for a family member:

Cajun seasoning mix

I want to find a really legit, straight from the south, ideally small business or individual maker type source, but with flavors that will knock your socks off. Recommendations??

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

moving twice in a span of two months is still crazy though, do not recommend. I plan to live the most boring life for the rest of 2025

Dude I'll have to DM you or message you on discord, it's all so exhausting and ridiculous

I currently have no access to internet at home (for dumb reasons) and might not until September. It's going to be a long August.
