They did NOT talk about Twilight Princess in the #zelda40th #nintendodirect. But it’s not all bad. OOT remake looks very good. I’m very glad that they stuck close to the old character art. Hylians are weird little freaks, always have been. Not excited about all the merch they’re hocking, though.

Steam AI disclosures are great
1. I know not to buy their game
2. I get to read their attempts to say they ethically used AI. "No, see we only used it to make some assets and then a HUMAN came in and made it good, so you can't be mad"
An artist could've done it all in the first place you asshat

Been working on a thing for about 18 hours now. Experimenting with acrylic ink for the first time in over a decade. Last time it was about washes. This time I’m going for clean, stark black zones with sharp line work. #WIP #zelda #TLOZ #twilightprincess #fanart #ink #traditionalart #sketch #midna

I think an underappreciated aspect of why so many people hate AI is that the people who boost it are, almost without exception, such insufferably garbage human beings.

Updated my website after many years. Still need to cut a new demo reel. I suppose I’m a little late for #portfolioday.

Back on my 10th Ghost Regiment bs. Even though I said I was done painting with white. Lol 20 new mechs, 6 vehicles. I also STILL need to finish painting their Union dropship. Thinking of giving them an Overlord, too. #wip #battletech #mechwarrior #tabletopgaming #miniatures #minispainting #mecha

Like my Liao dropship from earlier this year. The Pound of Flesh is a functional capsule that carries the BLB’s Light Cavalry Lance of mechs. I also redesigned the dice compartment to hold more. #battletech #mechwarrior #tabletop #tabletopgaming #miniatures #minispainting #paintingminis #crafting

Direct fire lance for my 👻DCMS 10th Ghost Regiment 👺Yōkai Company! Since Clan tech is a leap forward, I wanted their Yōkai to be "modern" Yōkai, because by #battletech standards they would still be ancient. #mechwarrior #tabletop #tabletopgaming #miniatures #minispainting #paintingminis #mecha

A fine crop of mech jocks for the arenas of Solaris VII! I had a lot of fun painting this group. 3 mechs in each weight class so our Bad Luck Battalion campaign characters can fill out the 4th slot for 4-way classic #battletech matches! #mechwarrior #mecha #tabletopgaming #miniatures #minispainting

The Tarnished. My Privateer lance for #Battletech Gothic! Went for a verdigris on bronze look. Super crusty with slight modifications using transformers bits, cheap jewelry and other mech bits. 1st finished mechs of the year! 1/5 #mechwarrior #miniatures #minispainting #tabletop #tabletopgaming
