I've had to resort to hunting down old Pinterest albums that predate AI bullshit, and that comes with its own host of problems...

Throwing out a line in case any tabletop enthusiasts or artists might be able to point me in the right direction, but... anyone know any image archives that aren't contaminated with 10,000,000,000 AI pictures? Google Images is a dumpster fire when it comes to looking up portraits/tokens/landscapes

James Cameron: "Paying professionals to do their work is hard, so we're going to waste countless times more than what we would've spent hiring VFX artists to invest in a sinking ship on the off-chance it doesn't sink. It's only 98% holes anyway!"

These fuckers are too stupid to have this much money

lol, lmao even

This is what they get for ignoring the writing on the wall and thinking they're smarter/better than actual workers and experts in the industry. I hope they think back on all the money and time they wasted and feel like absolute morons. Because they are.

"Our plagiarism machine, which costs hard-working professionals jobs and money, will lose us money too! This is so unfair!!!"

Anyway, cry me a river while I play the world's smallest violin. It'll make a great cover for my hot new album, "Finding Out Post-Fucking Around: A Two-Step Failure Program"

Ah yes, let's trust the machine that told us to put glue in our homemade pizza crust to give us accurate, reliable and safe medical care

One of these days the AI bros are (probably) going to realize they aren't in on the joke, they ARE the joke, and by then it's going to be too late

Howdy! I'm currently looking for freelance and full-time opportunities in the animation and gaming industries. I have experience in background painting and design, storyboarding for videos, and illustration.

The state of the games industry really boggles the mind. A game like Oblivion Remastered can shadowdrop, promptly rake in 9 million players, and the suits end up axing a bunch of Virtuous' employees anyway

The thought that a game can profit like crazy and you can STILL lose your job is absurd

Stealing half a million dollars in charitable proceeds is insane, but what's even crazier is turning around and raising double that immediately after. Ironmouse is a certified badass

I'd like to echo the sentiment that we should ALL be concerned about payment processors overstepping their boundaries -- not only is it unfair treatment to a legitimate form of business and its practitioners, they absolutely won't stop the censorship there if we let them get away with it

Those of us seeking a challenge or the 'intended' experience don't have to make use of difficulty settings. They wouldn't be there for us -- they'd be there for people who have a different idea of what fun is. And just because their fun is different doesn't make it any less valid. Just IMHO.

those who play the game at the standard difficulty -- it merely extends the opportunity to experience the game to a broader audience, and I can't understand why you WOULDN'T want more people to talk to about the games you enjoy (some of them may happen to be your friends!) >

Every time I see people argue against difficulty settings in Soulslike games, I feel the uncontrollable urge to grimace so hard my bones pop out of place

To clarify, I play them for the challenge, but I also know not everybody does. Increased accessibility does not lessen the achievements of >

Since Roll20 seems to think 'hate speech' against fascists is a thing(???), might I take a moment of your time to recommend FoundryVTT as an alternative? They have a firm stance against AI and won't tell you you're standing on a 'slippery slope' for calling the literal bad guys out for who they are!

A dragon age style tarot card depicting Solas looking down at a broken orb while the jaws of the dreadwolf close around his skull.

Had a rough day, so I vent painted the bald man.

This is some stunning work -- I couldn't be happier with how this turned out! Thanks again for taking on my commission

A mod popped up on the Oblivion Remastered Nexus (that has since been taken down) changing the body types in character creation from simply being labeled 'Body Type 1 & 2' to "Male and Female". This is a big part of why I can't take them seriously when conservatives call anyone else 'thin-skinned'

I've seen people complaining about the "historical accuracy" in AC: Shadows, and while I doubt their argument comes in good faith, I just have to ask: what about the series where an assassin fistfights the Pope over his hyper-religious murder-cult screams 'historically accurate' to you??
