As part of my job search efforts, I've come across 'Twine' website, something that seems to rely on, and make other people rely on, some kind of AI to do stuff for them, like job posts - and all the job posts sound the same, and sound like a spam mail

They were hungry for users and content, AI gave them that …in the short term

Think I got on there in 2005? 2006? My account could be graduating from university this year!

I'm Rob, an illustrator, designer, and writer from the UK. With a background in graphic design, I now spend my time drawing spaceships, robots, and other strange stuff - either for myself or for indie games and publishers.

A poster, built in Blender, showing the industrial Funicular from the Manga, Akira.

My illustration, Elk Island Light. An orange lighthouse floats on the ocean, at its base, tentacles extend in to the deep.

My illustration, Deep Space Fleet. A page of brightly coloured spaceship sketches.

My illustration, ISO Grid. 16 isometric illustrations of various little buildings. From a sci-fi noodle bar, to a Venetian palazzo.

#portfolioday is here again!
Hi everyone! I'm Sam, freelancer and illustrator on a variety of Warhammer tabletop roleplaying games. Here's a tiny slice of what I do:

Voll Adventures cover for Imperium Maledictum - a Vigilite interrogates a cultist at the site of a massacre, while our heroes prepare to intervene!

An Ash Drake ambushes a rather overmatched Chaos warband.

Aeldari factions combine forces against a horde of Orks in this cover illustration for Aeldari - Inheritance of Embers for Wrath & Glory.

The Skaven Blistrox, with readied spear and braced shield!
