I may be exhausted and sick but make no mistake:

I side with the LGBTQIA+ community.
I side with Palestine, Ukraine, and other oppressed nations.
I support fairness in all aspects of life, regardless of struggle.

And love conquers hate in the end of it all. Always.

I shouldn't be surprised that when I make a nudie post, it's my most popular post since I joined the site.

You can return to your natural state of turtleneck.
As can I, currently sinking back into my many black hoodies

My favorite is most likely Lord Slug. Which is funny considering it was the first thing of yours that I saw. It absolutely blew my mind that it was made so well when I saw it for the first time.
The editing combined with the voice acting was so incredible to me and still is.

I've been excited to see this for awhile, your passion and love for cartoons is on full display and your graphic style compliments the pilot as a whole. I sincerely enjoyed this.
I find this project especially inspiring Pan, I hope to see more 💚

I'm all for mocking him. I'm all for being mean and shitty to him. I'm all for pointing out his hypocricies and moral failings.

I just don't like mocking people for their looks.

While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI:

At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

AI impoverishes us at every step of the process:
- data centers pollute our environment
- energy use drives up costs
- content theft robs creators of income
- the actual output is used to displace workers and depress wages
- using it harms our mental health and impairs our competence
- the flood of AI slop is damaging our sociopolitical landscape

All in service of making a worse product - and world - to enrich a handful of already spectacularly wealthy people

Been a year. Time to repost this.

YOUR PORTFOLIO CRIT
THINGS I'D TELL YOU IF I WERE LOOKING AT YOUR WORK IN PERSON
1 Violating the 180 degree rule makes this sequence hard to follow
2 A few more incidental overlaps will make this foreshortening clearer
3 Symmetrical compositions with a character dead center imply an important moment. Don't draw every panel like that?
4 This __ looks kind of fake. Take the time to look at reference instead of just making it up
5 An establishing shot will help the reader understand where this takes place.
6 Find a life-drawing session to attend, or practice from photos online.
7 Show these pages to someone who doesn't know the story and ask them to tell the story back to you.
8. Nudge this part over a bit to eliminate that tangency.
9 You flattened out the depth by rendering the foreground, middle ground, & background with the same values. Create depth and direct the eye by organizing them into overlapping planes of light & dark.
10 there are better ways to use your time than rendering every brick.
11 these characters look like they're floating (or falling). Draw figures and bg from the same eye level.
12 Unless this will be a wordless comic, leave more room for the lettering
