I've been looking through all my drives for the reference materials for these two for awhile and glad I finally did. These are just several things I've made with them, but I've missed Chime and Marrow and hope to do more soon... #Art #Anthro #Sketch #SonicFanCharacter #SonicOC

Random rant kind of… I get the joke, but it honestly kind of irks me in some ways a bit when I hear it too. Furries aren’t just IT, they’re teachers, hospitality, retail, custodians, healthcare professionals, trades persons, and more.

who tf copyright struck my own drawing of my own characters + patreon why are you lying abt "the claim is valid"

im not gonna name names but i think the thing every art website trying to fill the old deviantART void gets tragically wrong is: categorization/searchability/discoverability. limited or no submission categories, crappy search tools, and sometimes LIMITED TAGS (bonkers) (what's wrong with you)

I am of course very excited to see The Devils but imagine if Visa and Mastercard also let me pay for the exact same thing but made by an artist on itch

yeah it sucks because you can hardly notice it as you say. at least unless they admit to it; which they will because a huge part of programmers seems to be proud of using it and making themselves obsolete ://

...yeah not very creative today am I

FYI the Fourthwall AI thing that was going around a while ago was just them offering an optional ChatGPT extension so people can buy stuff via ChatGPT. It wasn’t on by default you had go explicitly manually install it

that's not saying just give up and never boycott anything either! it's just saying do not start boycotting with the parts that secure your livelihood as long as there are no replacements. none of us can be 100% perfect

I guess what I wanna say is if you are a small creator and you keep being informed and vocal you are already doing so much more than most other people. do not shoot yourself in your own foot by trying to cut everything off, it won't be possible and we have to stay alive somehow to make art 🧡

bluesky is using AI, fourthwall is using AI, patreon is using AI, twitch is using AI, my tiny german internet host in the middle of nowhere is using AI - unfortunately everything tech related will be touched by this shit somehow. all you can do is disable it best you can and tell them it sucks

Are they panicking? Is this a ploy to grow new Harry Potter fans because the brand is becoming radioactive?! Anyway, I don't normally support book burning, but I'm thinking about making an exception for these.

Scholastic sent me a whole box of paperback copies of Sorcerer’s Stone that I sure didn't order. When I asked why, my rep told me they're sending complimentary giveaway copies to random schools that do Book Fair.

because they have it in theaters for like 72 fucking hours before tossing it in the fucking bin!! let a fucking movie earn some goddamn money!! we can't all see a movie within the first damn 5 seconds!!!!!!! they just fucking set every movie up to fail I'M TIRED OF IT

Speaking of eyes! The pupil does not rest directly on the outside of the eyeball. It's actually sunk in a bit, resting under the (somewhat raised) cornea. If you reflect this in your art - even your stylized art - it will make your characters seem more alive.

i worry for the future of fiction sometimes. that's the tragedy, man! it's tragic specifically BECAUSE she is such a sweet loveable cutie pie who you really really want to root for, and she ends up a terrifying monster. you're not supposed to come out of Carrie feeling like, GOOD about anything

Petra (old). i thought it would be funny if in her old age she turned into a little creature, Pinako Rockbell style, but also somehow revert to being tall for doing cool stuff like spellcasting #oc-tober2026 #ironcompany

u have to be able to disagree with friends about whether or not u liked a movie or think something is overrated. that's a healthy relationship. discussing art comes with learning about other perspectives bro

FYI

Before you start taking advice for how you "should" draw, you should just draw and see what happens. Figure out what you enjoy and double down on that. People who've faced a lot of challenges are quick to tell you that it has to be all suffering to make progress. It doesn't.

Quick Neeko before I go to sleep! I miss her…

I feel like this is a very common pattern… Person in youth: I want a goth girlfriend. -20 years later- Person in adulthood: I am the goth girlfriend!

Mastodon has a 500 character limit. I think that's part of the reason why I'll use it a bit more for my interests and thoughts once I get everything organized with the social media stuff. I probably should go to bed as it's late. I miss posting art WIPs here, so I'll set that up soon. Good night!
