Sharing another old, unused miniature design today. This time, it is for the now dead game, Dreamblade. This one is somehow 20 years old now. More on the blog: christopherburdett.blogspot.com/2026/01/a-se... #monsterart #monsterartist #humanartist #pencilart #pencildrawing #miniature #DreamBlade

“Excuse me, Señor Mr. Jonesy Sassy Pants, what do you believe you are doing?” has NEVER been said at our house.

I see it’s #portfolioday.

I'm Christopher, and I make monsters and tell stories about them. My career started in film and TV, and now I work in tabletop games (MtG, D&D, Star Wars).

The state of the Grand Bazaar on the blog today. The short of it: I completed the main art phase on 12/30/25, and began writing the book on 1/1/2026! I have a long year ahead, but the book is taking shape! christopherburdett.blogspot.com/2026/01/the-... #monsterart #monsterartist #humanartist #art

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

As I am very busy (more on that Monday), I am looking back at work done 16 and 14 years ago. This was the first original D&D Monster Manual entry that I redesigned for a personal project that ended with over 100 monsters reworked. christopherburdett.blogspot.com/2026/01/revi... #bugbear #dndartist

more generations need to discover M*A*S*H

charlesemersonwinchesteriii: hey quick question why did no one ever tell me how fucking insane M*A*S*H is?? their commanding officer is a horse girl. the secretary has psychic powers. this guy walks around a 1950s military outpost in drag and everyone's just like hey nice dress. the protagonist who is supposed to be the best surgeon in the entire korean war spends every episode strutting around drunk in a hawaiian shirt making homoerotic wisecracks and asking the nurses to step on him like some sort of unhinged bisexual jimmy buffet. guys what the hell is going on in this army doctor show

surreal-static: isn't it beautiful?

I am thrilled to announce that I made the cut and will be returning to the Gen Con Art Show later this year! After having to cancel last minute last year it will be nice to return to Indianapolis for the best four days in gaming! christopherburdett.blogspot.com/2026/01/gen-... #gencon #genconartshow

A design of a dapper man in a suit holding an umbrella in one hand and a piece of wood in the other. The wood has a cartoonish bit taken out of it. The head of the figure is a massive head of a termite.

With recent shows coming to their end, it seems fitting to share the work that I did from the Dungeons & Dragons Stranger Things release of Welcome to the Hellfire Club again. christopherburdett.blogspot.com/2025/10/welc... #strangerthings #dndart #dndartist #strangerthingsartist #strangerthingsart

Nope. I wasn't close enough to get any details. And they were soon long gone.

Well, 2026 has started with a bang. While on my walk this morning, I had to call the police due to a man clinging to the hood of a car that was driving up and down the street as the man screamed for help.
