Is that #PortfolioDay again? :)

Hi, I'm Charlene, a #gamedevmom: visual development artist at Blizzard on WoW by day, and working on my personal visual encyclopedia Raizh by night! Here's a glimpse of my little universe!

A double page from my visual encyclopedia Raizh: on the left there's a scholar smoking a pipe, and a vehicle that has a triangle shape on the right.

A double page from my visual encyclopedia Raizh: it's full of small and cartoony characters playing some traditional music instruments.

Cecil Sprites ✨

#Art | #Gravehearts

Sprites of a little clown cat doll with a pink white and blue colour pallet. First pose is just neutral standing with arms by his side, second he looks grumpy with his arms crossed, third arms up, fourth hands on cheeks, fifth head in hands and sixth shrugging.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

The Sunset Vanguard
A guild made of veterans from the different armies of the City States who preferred to go adventuring than return to civilian life. Very prone to infighting.

Young kids enjoy a good mix of routine & discovery! I took the habit to bring mines to every friend parties / game nights, even when they were babies, and I'm so happy I did. Now we can bring them anywhere! Having kids should never mean the end of social life! :)

In my world building project Raizh, The Tzin Republic is the smallest of the nations in Gaya. Yet, this civilization remains powerful, thanks to its monopoly on flying boats!

Yeah, that's just insane... What scares me the most is that no one seems to be able to stop him. Like, you would think he has an army of advisors, folks who would tell him that's crazy to write such things... And no. You still can read that kind of messages on official government websites! 😱

Let's check if my favorite local hike is open this weekend!

I'll be using this month to continue exploring the world of The Thief of Tales, long after Nevhna's story concluded. The Forest has opened a path for outsiders to go and delve into the ancient ruins of Viridia, the once greatest of the 6 city states.

An ink illustration featuring a gaggle of human adventurers, surrounding a city covered by a forest. They are not to scale at all. "Adventures in Radiant Viridia" is written in the middle.

“Why should my taxes pay for YOUR healthcare?”

Because you live in a society. Part of being in society means contributing to ensure everyone is taken care of

I wish more people would realize the tax dollars they would spend on Universal healthcare would be far less than private insurance premiums

Sketchbooks should be a place where you can get messy.! That’s easier said than done, but I think sketching technique plays a huge role. That's why I made a tutorial about my process!

Golden hour hike on Morgan Trail near Lake Elsinore... One of my favorite trails in SoCal, because it's one of the few that give you the feeling to hike in a forest!
