And here are the remaining four completed images.

I have since learned I dislike (see: don't understand) gouache.

Ink and Digital are still my preferred mediums.

Your ability to eat should not depend on your productivity

Your ability to get healthcare should not depend on your productivity

Your ability to get housing should not depend on your productivity

I actually think it's extremely good and healthy to experience art that makes you uncomfortable. discomfort is not equivalent to real, tangible harm. at the very least y'all should recognize uncomfortable art's right to exist, and to carry on with your life without making it everyone else's problem.
I had a thought last night.

If people scrape and trawl the internet for more art to feed into their AI generators, then isn't it my duty, my moral imperative, to make the most hideous, unpolished, ugly, gods-awful-to-look-at art that ever existed?
Not a single braincell active in that orange floof ball.
...ngl I thought this was guacamole at first blush.
Never heard of her.

But, also a genre of music I typically don't listen to, so, shrug?
I was on the fence as to whether I wanted to buy it or not. This convinced me not to. Thank you for your insights.

I feel like there's a whole story here of why it's been delayed for so long and of something gone wrong with the 3rd game overall. Just unfortunate over all.
I respect doodles on binder paper more than I respect generative AI art.
