Catching up with what James Gurney, the Dinotopia artist, is up to these days. Pathetic.

I added more brushes to my Gumroad store. They are STUPID but also very good - perfect for Photoshop or Procreate.

Realms of the Haunting is one of my all-time favourite games. I go back to it every few years and it still scares the shit out of me.
The visuals and audio design are incredible, and it has some excellent live-action FMV cutscenes throughout.
I should really stream it some time, it's such a gem 👀

Something I don’t often share online is my love for fashion. I own so many goddamn clothes and I might start putting out more fashion content this year (maybe on a new Insta account??)
I’ve had a few folk ask about finding outfits over the years and my best advice is just to save shit you like..⬇️

Remember it’s called “Portfolio” day and a portfolio is about you at your best not what’s new. Too often I see artists sad they got nothing new to show and you need to stop that mindset. It’s your best showing what you’re capable of and that never ages. Good work get framed and put on display.
The next #PortfolioDay is just a few days away on Tuesday, January 13th! Get those portfolios ready!
Go to portfolioday.art for more info!
Good luck! 💛

The Pale Tides playtest I've been working on is coming along beautifully. New mechanics that support the core loop just organically spawn every now and then, and it always feels amazing when it happens.
The Hexen are quite over-tuned rn and I LIKE it. Because I'm angry and it feels appropriate.

VTUBER PEOPLE. I have a very stupid idea to make a vtuber model out of photos of myself (it's part of a twitch redesign I'm doing). I don't know shit about the process - is it worth commissioning someone (if so, hi, DM me) or can you point me at the best software/tutorials etc??
