Thank you for the milestone congratulations everyone ๐Ÿ’› โœจ How about a 20K ART RAFFLE? โœจ (except not technically a raffle) Drop your characters below (followers only)! 24 hours from now I'll pick two or three characters to draw pinups of! SFW or NSFW c:

I did 10hrs of work today at my (in-house) illustration job, clocking out at 8pm and now im gonna chow down some god damn icecream and continue animating some ass fucking ๐Ÿ’ช

FYI my main job is bs. I wish I had anything else.. but it pays my bills so ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ But im also so fucking adamant to not let it dampen my spirits that Im so happy ive found motivation to draw and create in this space (thank you!!)

Agreed 100% We used to post frequently like this well before genAI existed. This isnt the way to rein down on AI "art", this approach is going to be harmful to genuine artists. Please read the comments to hear other stories & perspectives @vgen.co and revisit this.

I must say, this is scary and potentially harmful advice to give. "High-effort" is a vague and subjective term. This leads to an attitude that basically puts any artist with high skill and a good work ethic at risk. (from @vgen.co's "How to tell if an image is created with Generative AI")

Theres so many amazing artists, I want to scream from the roof tops about u all, so sometimes I repost if the mood strikes. But I made this account to start something new, to relearn how to draw for myself again, & anyone new finding me can see my work easily & know what theyre getting from me :3

Also I don't have time to network and browse my feed a lot of the time, so to punish those who don't like/repost is an insane take ๐Ÿคก Wish I did have the time to do this FT..

๐Ÿ’ญ I have only animated a couple of looping gifs in my day, it isnt something I do often. I learned from videos on YT. I just focus on ease in & out, and follow my guidelines so things dont look too jittery~ a textured brush is helpful for the illusion too (ใ€ƒยดโ–ฝ`) โ™ก

I'm so proud and inspired by the community I've nestled into, thanku so much for being such a solid source of support ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ’œ You never know what someone is going through and yet you've all demonstrated kindness, it brings me so much hope amongst the noise lately ๐ŸŒธ wiwiwi

Another thought: some social media doesnt allow us to have a gallery overview.. like here for instance. So I am a culprit for not reposting things - that does not mean Im a bot or an AI bro. I just dont want my work to get lost in an infinite scroll whilst Im using this as a private safe space.

Actually I will add!!. Just because I do all these things, does not mean that its a standard I believe artists should be doing just to get by. I agree it is incredibly unhealthy to do this. Everyone works at a different pace, and is on a different journey. I am just insane ( Tโˆ€T)

Apologies for the spam,, but not really. I am TIRED of people in charge, not actually consulting us. I am enraged at a lot rn. My health is.. yup. Ive been washing out of a bucket for 5-6months bc my bathroom is still broken. & my job (yes, as a FT Illustrator) isnt what its cracked up to be.

With how the world is now, we feel we have no choice but to produce a lot of work & market ourselves, just to keep everyones attention amongst all the other noise on the internet, all so we can stay relevant & interesting enough, or even help pay our bills. That's the reality too.

Theres other ways to identify genAI without putting artists up against eachother like this - its just such a silly way for vgen to address it. Sorry rant over. Not having a good time as is. This crud doesnt help at all. I want to feel like i have a space in my life that isnt full of stress.. alas.

Context: Im a FT Illustrator for a big company, we churn out est 10 digital images/day, subjectively called "high effort". Yes its doable. Yes I still draw for myself after work & run a small business of my handmade products, & yes.. I AM BURNT OUT. But I do it all so intensely bc I WANT TO & I can.

It is doable and it IS realistic to post daily. Digital artists are capable too, I see it constantly. Even sculptuers! Animators if youre crazy enough! Dont pigeon hole real art & artists into such a vague and subjective rule.

I have a feeling this would be a good thing to add based on your responses. Tho i like drawing all versions.. can always magically remove it if we want the option :3
