A banner I made bc I’m working on opening commissions (through vgen!!) and it’s strange to see my art next to each other like this for some reason
Oh I am in such a Dungeon Meshi mood… you can pry this au out of my cold dead hands.
When making the au, I knew Love had to be a half-foot because it just suits her so well. …it also occurred to me that half-foots are specifically mentioned to have a low mana capacity as compared to other races like elves, and also that Love would likely be a healer and thus need a decent mana capacity… but sometimes you have to shove the rules aside and go for what FEELS right instead.
tw: eye strain and angst
@shadowmagegemini asked for angst and I responded “I gotchu” 😌 in all seriousness this was super fun and experimental so commission me again please your characters are so fun to draw
Snoopy my beloved
being an artist and revisiting media you liked when you were 11 is like. oh ok. this shaped my sense of humor and the way I write characters and the way I pace narratives and the tropes I'm drawn to. and I vastly underestimated how much of an impact it had on me because I literally have not thought about it for 15 years. but it was there inside me the whole time. ok. ok cool! c ool
shit ton of people are repeating the thing about hayao miyazaki saying AI art is an "insult to life itself" and just as a reminder he was talking about the zombies that team made that were intended to be scary in how much they shook, but instead reminded him of his disabled friend. the insult to life itself was referring to the team trying to make scary real symptoms that people live with.
it was a quote about ableism. if he has said other things about AI type stuff, that is a different thing. but that specific quote was about ableism.
Snoopy watching me draw after a meal at a restaurant (I love drawing food)
I wish *I* had a cup of soup as big as my head and no worries about anything ever
Birthday gifts for friends, I pushed myself with these ones because I will absolutely try anything new for my beloved friends, for myself…. maybe haha 😌 I absolutely adore how both of them turned out ✨
that new generative ai thing is breaking my heart
