Hi! I'm Keith Decesare, and I'm a freelance illustrator.
I've worked in the RPG industry for a bit (Kenzer, Chaosium, Atlas, etc.)
I've done covers for many independent authors as well as board games.
Nowadays, I'm just working on personal projects in my spare time.

I just love the smug look on their face. 💚

As with all other UB art I can't show anything related to the process, but I can talk a bit about it :)
Was once again really happy to do some official TMNT art. Leo's my fav!
Brief was him and Mikey doing some fighting in an alien bar vs Tricero's

From my book Savage Strangehollow (pre order here: buff.ly/WMSJMQX ) - The smaller dragon here is a native of Strangehollow and colloquially known as The Red Death and is the largest dragon in the territory. Once every few years a GIANT comes to hunt and thins out the red dragon population!

A small (Gold) Texture Tutorial I did a while ago, since I get asked about it every now and then 🎇
There are a hundred ways of doing the same thing, this is just one (or two) of those ways!

San Diego Comic-Con will no longer allow AI 'art' to be displayed at their event
"Material created by AI either partially or wholly, is not allowed in the art show"
This follows backlash from artists after SDCC initially indicated AI-generated work would be permitted

This is a disaster.
Comic-con deciding to allow GenAi imagery in the art show —giving valuable space to GenAi users to show slop right NEXT to actual artists who worked their asses off to be there— is a disgrace!
A tone deaf decision that rewards and normalizes exploitative GenAi against artists in their own spaces!

Don't be afraid to destroy what you've created.
If something is not working, don't spend minutes/hours trying to fix what's there. Paint over that face that you spent hours on if it doesn't work. Don't be afraid to start over.
Its called "Chasing problems" for a reason.
