Hello, I'm Yfirheim! A fantasy artist creating OCs & indulging in fandom.

I am particularly into #Gortash (Baldur's Gate 3) and #Blackwall (Dragon Age: Inquisition).

Gods of Yfirheim is my own OC & world-building project, which has followed me for decades.

A digital painting of Blackwall, a character from dragon Age: Inquisition, sat in the stables and whittling a bear figure. On the table behind him is the unfinished rocking horse in the shape of a griffon. Golden god rays filter in through the wood plank walls.
There is a bloody blue cloth hanging up behind him, which contrasts with the otherwise idyllic, peaceful scene.

Fan art of Blackwall and Herah Adaar from Dragon Age: Inquisition.
They are using his shield as an umbrella to protect them from the rain. The size difference and wet mud makes walking awkward. Herah is giggling at the silliness of it all whilst Blackwall watches her with bittersweet longing.

A painted portrait of my Banite dragonborn paladin, Verdigris. Referenced from a screenshot from the game Baldur's Gate 3. Drawn in Clip Studio Paint and painted in Rebelle7.

A sketch of the character Lord Enver Gortash from Baldur's Gate 3. He is sat at his desk reading from a piece of paper. His brow is rested on his hand. He looks tired and troubled, but otherwise stoic.

#TavQOTD Siraan's weirdest dream was that Scratch and Beaksley stole her arm and ran off with it to use in a ritual.

When she found them it was too late, the ritual was complete and they summoned a Tarrasque into the realm. It had just challenged her to solve a math problem when she woke up.

When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

btw the Tidal links I post here to share music point to the song from all available platforms.

YfirheimArt @yfirheimart.bsky.social · 9h

Tidal too has hi-fi quality streaming, which is something Spotify doesn't (last I checked).

Also the algorithm for finding new music based on what you're currently listening to is far better imo. I've found so much for my Durgetash playlist from their reccs.

But aye, buying the music is best.

demon grrl 😈🏳️‍⚧️ @demongrrl.gay · 13h

If your heart is set on streaming, the platform with the best payout for artists is Tidal. However, actually owning digital music means you have full control of your library, and actually pays artists more! Platforms like Qobuz and Bandcamp are excellent

#TavQOTD #NSFW #MoldyGort

#Molvayas has an insatiable appetite whilst Enver is human & often busy, so yes.

Enver doesn't mind with an exception for those times he feels inspired & pretends to. 😏

ie, perhaps a lesson in restraint might be appropriate?

#nsfw #tavqotd Does your tav/durge still masturbate even though they have a partner(s)? If they do, when do they do it?

c.e. chant/hades 💀🐊 💬 too many comics @portaltohades.bsky.social · May 20

I have an art book for #tyreecomic ! It's 62 pages at $10! Not only does it have art but I have some brief guides into my page process as well. There is even stuff I havent released publicly in it! It's a great way to support me currently and get a glimpse into my obsession

ko-fi.com/s/f5c5cebbd6

Tyree art book cover featuring various drawings and sketches of the main trio

Art book page featuring Chicahua and Cuicatl. Dialog reads: Cuicatl is the name of Chi's deer. He's a complete bastard to everyone but Chi. He is well known among the nobles for being the deer that bit the king on the ass. He loves Chi and only Chi.

Tletl's art page featuring various drawings and a sketch of her. Text reads: Tletl is the enteral lit flame of Kopitl. The ADHD daughter of the Sun. Her hair moves like fire.

Meztli's page from the art book. Text reads: Meztli, the mood goddess, is viktor's mother. xei calls viktor "Little rabbit" because of Meztli's affinity for rabbits. Her vitiligo changes with phases of the moon. She keeps a rabbit charm that maurice had made for her.

It is an emulating #Wormtash day today, I fear.

(The CFSME *really* hated me going away, which really sucks because I was doing okay last month. Also I predicted this. 😞)

One likes to head up and look down, the other likes to head down and look up, so they never see each other's face clearly at a right angle.

Aye, that was a thing on twitter because it took attention away from the original post.

I think it's more acceptable here because of the lack of algorithm? But I'm not at all certain on that. I just haven't seen anyone blow up about it.

A lot of feelings that are more than words

(I guess, in a way, #paleoart)

A digital drawing, few simple drawings on a dark background. From top to the bottom, it starts with half of the Earth seen with its continents being placed like in the Middle Ordovician. Below it is a line, showing a process of life - from one little star, to dividing cells, to an embryo (it's all different creatures - fish, dog, tadpole, and a human).
Then, series of little drawings, showing different stages of life in different things. A plant emerging from the soil, a larvae, baby birds with their bright open mouths, pregnant horse with a star on its belly, very old human, and a dry plant in a pot with a leaf falling from it.
A fossil of a crinoid can be seen on the background, in some places nicely preserved, in some - scattered around, with segments seen as little stars.
The text on the picture says: "Let sunshine touch the memory of me again"

Following the previous part of it, from top to the bottom: mammal bones scattered around, a fossil of a trilobite on a rock, human remains, a piece of a fossilized plant, little drawing of an ammonite, a part of a thylacine seen in a little square, and in a square next to it - plate with fossilized fish, being shattered.
Below them is a line - an ornitomimus running forward, its fossilized remains, and on the right - same remains, but scattered around in little pieces.
The text goes through the drawing, saying "I will remain. I will remain. I will remain"
The first phrase is written normally, the second is written fast. The last one is poorly written by my left hand, without looking at the screen.

25 years in, we are NOT allowing genAI music onto OC ReMix, full stop.

We're 100% against genAI music and are a community geared toward authentic creativity and artistic development. You don't get that by doing text prompts.

Recent comment: "This A.I. music is as fake as 🏈 🦇."

In this case, this is human-made. (3 of our judges panel are also involved as collaborators on it: jnWake, pixelseph, and paradiddlesjosh.)

We explicitly do NOT accept any music made with generative A.I. There are tools out there that help identify genAI music. If music involving genAI is ever unknowingly let on, it will be removed if it's discovered.
