(of course even if you can’t afford commissions or art (you are not alone in this), any method of support is incredible nowadays. thank you, thank you, thank you!!!)

ppl who still commission their favourite artists even in this era where everyone is broke and genAI is being pushed on us at every opportunity—you are appreciated more than words can express!!!

‘Chikn Nuggit’ creator Kyra Kupetsky announces her departure from the show after BuzzFeed made a requirement to feed the show to AI.

“I am very anti-Al and cannot support this. Thus I am leaving to boycott this. I am so upset it's come to this and I cannot apologize enough for this happening.”

GOOD NEWS!
FYI "Fast fashion" is cheaply trend clothing that is made fast and in high quantity severely lacking quality. So most can't be donated. Only 20% that is donated is actually wearable, the rest goes to landfills.
This sets a new precedent for quality of clothes AND helps reduce waste!

Here you go! I hope this one catches on a little too!

Everyone who tried to draw around me and started drawing LOVED it at the beginning because of their QUICK IMPROVEMENT. Then quit when they hit The Wall™️.

But it's when you hit The Wall™️ that you NEED to push through with practice!! And you gotta do it for yourself, because it's ALWAYS worth it! 😤

Sorry to be a bit of a Slowpoke but here's something I wanted to cook up for Pokemon's 30th! Happy Belated Pokemon Day!

How the fuck am I unemployed when someone like this has a job

kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it

Anyways.

A cool thing to remember is that if your theory about a piece of fiction turns out to be wrong?

You get to pocket those ideas and use them in your own works.

Nobody's taking anything from you when your theories don't prove correct. Those imagined ideas are all yours.

i am finally going through and unboxing all my figures that are still in boxes so you’ll be seeing some posts, anyways here’s this absolutely insane Frieren and Fern

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this page on CREASE DIRECTION, by the talented @miyuliart! Under the surface, the partial TWIST of the HAND can cause two TENSION POINTS in the sleeve fabric - from the LATERAL (OUTER) SIDE of the ELBOW to the MEDIAL SIDE of the HAND (pinky).

A small sleeping Shaymin plushie held up in front of pink orchids, facing the camera on the palm of my hand. Its flowers are made from mochi fabric. The entire pattern is designed by me, including embroidery files.

As it is now the 27th of february in Japan:

Happy Birthday to my most beloved franchise, Pokémon!

I'm so grateful to have been introduced to this series as a kid. And to show this... what better way than to share a custom Shaymin plush?

Having “Filler” ≠ Bad or wasteful writing. Tbh there is no such thing as “filler.”That word was literally just used for anime episodes added that were not in the Manga. And people liked it! sometimes filler end up being meaningful and add more.

Fortunately people have saved them and reuploaded them so we can still read them and use them for research, but this is clearly a blatant effort to try and protect Trump's image. I guess they've never heard of the Streisand effect.

This card is so beautiful, I really wanted to animate it. I truly love how it turned out. I learned a lot while working on it, and I hope you all like it too!

What’s your favorite card? Maybe I’ll animate another one 👀✨

A screen shot from an interview with the late director David Lynch when he was asked to speak on his statement saying Eraser Head was his most 'spiritual film'. Interviewer: "Elaborate on that." David: "No."

..I'll be taking a page out of the late, great, David Lynch's handbook when it comes to answering questions + theories from now on. (4/4)

feel like I'm being spoon-fed information w/out allowing room for my own interpretation so, I approach things from that POV. Either way, I hope ppl find KOG interesting & have fun interpreting what we're doing. As for myself.. (3/4)

nothing's been successfully predicted & I'm worried about expectations. Not every story needs to follow an accessible structure or trope, just like diff art styles don't need to follow the same rules. Personally, I stop enjoying something as soon as I recognize a pattern or (2/4)

Theorizing can be fun. I also see people theorize themselves into a corner, imagining a completely different show w completely different characters from what's intended. Largely, I ignore this and make what I'm gonna make but, I hope people go into KOG with open minds bc (1/4)

Thirding, and putting in that this goes for all creators. Most don't make money, so they subsist off of praise and minor breakthroughs in their own self-consciousness. The former helps a lot with the latter.

hot take but i'm not sad for anyone who lost money on these bets, they're all immoral fucking degenerates who deserve to lose their fucking houses.

Iwao Takamoto was one of the Disney greats. Films like Sleeping Beauty owe a lot to his meticulous lines.

The studio was a kind of home for him -- it was a big change. Just before, he'd been in the camps. We explore the story:
