Zoë's face on a CRT screen - very blue, very glitchy. She is surrounded in a purple haze.

I waited for 6 years for a copy of this calendar to show up on ebay, the other day I finally received an email alert, I was in the middle of a meeting, I could barely contain my excitement and immediately bid on the auction.

Hello #PortfolioDay! I'm Alex, a 3D artist & illustrator doing environments, props, characters, and generalist work in games. Adept at painted, procedural, & PBR; and optimised, stylised modelling, drawing, highly flexible.

Games: Roman Sands RE:Build, H3VR, Dreamsettler, Dunderbeck

alexbpart.com

A 3D scene of a Luthier's workshop, modelled and rendered in Blender. There are lots of half built instruments and both natural and electric light.

3D apartment courtyard scene with a sandpit and playground situated in the middle. Lowpoly and handpainted textures.

Ink and flat colour illustration of a character set against a light green background. The character sits on a warm-coloured wood chair and plays a hurdy-gurdy decorated with various geometric and botanical inlay designs. They wear a billowing yellow shirt with red lace detailing, and an equally billowy pair of blue trousers, draped and rumpled and rolled halfway up the shin. They wear cherry-coloured brogue shoes with light blue laces, and their feet are pointed inwards. They look off to their left, with their dark blue and slightly greying hair blowing in the same direction. They have dark red lips, blue eyeshadow, and pronounced blush on their cheerks. Their hat is wide-brimmed and possibly brown felt, decorated with roses in various shades of blue, red, and purple, and smaller yellow flowers. Atop their hat is an ornamental rooster. Their name is Chanticleer.

Line & flat colour digital illustration of a short, thin old woman with a large mass of curly, dusty white hair. Her skin is sun-damaged, she wears glasses and has an exaggeratedly long nose. All of her clothes are covered in dust: a straw panama hat with a red band covered in anti-nuclear pins; a purple trenchcoat with brass buttons, missing its left sleeve; a muted blue shirt tucked into baggy navy blue trousers tucked into warm brown leather boots. On her back is a heavy camping rucksack with pans attached to the back, and a yellow sleeping mat tied to the top. In her right hand, she carries a geiger counter attached to to her hip. Her left hand rests on a tall contraption: the bottom half functions as a walking stick while the top half is a wheel. Attached with plastic straps and gaffer tape are two bottles of yellow paint, with tubing that feeds to the wheel.

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice?
Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off.

However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam.

I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with:

Wise
Revolut
Monzo
Monese
Chase
Starling
Nationwide
Halifax
Barclays
Lloyds
RBS

It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?"

"It's coming from games I sell on Steam."

"Can we see the store page?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time."

It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content.

What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

super super super enjoying the new PWEI album~
production is a bit clumsy and muddy (play it loud), but ooooooooo there's a lotta exciting stuff going on here and the writing + track diversity is very reminiscent of their prime
