Giga!

it's all just art. "porn" is just art that makes you horny, in precisely the way that "horror" is art that makes you scared and "metroidvania" is art that makes you write video essays

Oh cool! I've heard about ctrl paint but never knew where to start with their stuff. I'll take a look!

Artist friends! I've been working on getting back into drawing and I've realized I've never been satisfied with how I color/render. I've spent the past few years in 3D software, now jumping back into 2D is rough.

What are some resources you'd recommend to help learn better coloring and lighting? :3

If you think there's an upper limit on the furry fandom, I hate to tell you, but you're buying into propaganda that says that you're required to age out of enjoying life.

Getting older =/= getting boring.

Don't let other people's expectations of adulthood stop you from doing what you love.

Nothing hotter than an older furry in their 30s or 40s or more who has managed to retain enough whimsy in their life to still love dressing up like a dog and dancing until 2AM.

Like, experienced, older, and still doing what you love? Teach me your ways. You are an icon and you are beautiful.

I deeply envy Bradley. I want to be Bradley. I want that confidence.

...

I also want to draw more salacious furry things.

There is no confidence greater than the artists that casually the most heinous furry porn under their full christian government name.

When I see smutty art, then check the artist name and see "Bradley Jonathan Smith", I immediately know that Bradley is unstoppable. He could kill me with a thought.

I got an industrial piercing.

NOW I am become yeen.

Even though now I can't wear a fursuit for a couple months while it heals >.<

Matt Dinniman wrote a fursuit into Dungeon Crawler Carl.
I couldn't let him get away with it that easily.
Hope Jeff Hayes has a good time recording book 8!

I could be posting

I've made 5 video game prototypes in the past 6 months, written over 10k lines of python for rigging tools in Maya, learned, broke, then fixed multiple Unreal projects, animated a ton of stuff, and last weekend I subjected one of my favorite authors to the horrific knowledge that he wrote a furry.

Hey, what if I started actually posting more

YouTube video by Noodle what did you do

Oh wait I just remembered Noodle

youtu.be/bC-8y2R6IxI?...

She knows how pretty she is and she weaponizes it

I've seen a few like NewFramePlus and some one-off videos from creators that otherwise focus on game design like GMTK, and Ars Technica, but not a whole ton that really focus on the art.
I'd be especially interested in seeing more breakdowns on shaders, simulations, rig tricks, and other tech stuff

A perfect, precious, angelic, and innocent cat gently rests upon my arm, locking me in place and causing me to unwillingly procrastinate. But alas, I cannot move, for she is cozy, and i have not the heart to take that from her. Also I'm wearing a green shirt.

It's a miracle I can ever get anything done with this creature always trying to nap on me

I WILL HELP INDUCT YOU INTO THE CULT OF BUBSY.

We will start with Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind and then move onto Bubsy 3D from there >:3

Okay but I LOVE Ape Escape. One of my game dev pet projects is trying to find a way to modernize the control scheme of that game without sacrificing the charm and style of it. The way each gadget works is so satisfying, despite the overall controller experience being absolutely bonkers.

Utah is really pretty! And there's a lot of really great people here that deserve an awesome safe space to party and hang out. I know there are some MAJOR downsides to the state, but there's still a lot of good, positive fluffs here. Anyone who chooses to visit, we'll make sure to take care of ^_^

There's the reason! Not a terribly exciting one, but sometimes boring is okay 😅

We did grow this year! It was just by a smaller percentage than our average. We're looking at options to make AWU more accessible in the future, since it looks like we're starting to push the limits of our venue a bit!

There's not a ton of convenient options for hotels near our venue outside of the ones we get blocks with, and if you add up 4 to a room in all of our room blocks combined, you get REALLY close to our attendance numbers. Factor in that not everyone is packing 4 in a room, and voila!

Just cuz a few people have asked, unfortunately the reason for the slow-down in growth for AWU this year is a pretty boring one 🤣 we checked all the numbers, all the data, and all the charts, and the juicy reason is...

... hotels are at capacity.

Arc (an orange and brown coyote with blue highlights dressed in a swashbuckling outfit and holding a dagger) in the foreground looking ready for a battle as a flying pirate ship looks overhead. In the background Prryce (a dark purple cat dressed in an oversized pirate captain’s uniform) juggles a giant pile of treasure in his paws while looking upward in a nervous manner. They are both on a beach with the ocean behind them.

🌴🏴‍☠️You might have seen it floating around at #AWU2025 but here is the full art for a banner I had the pleasure of working on this year 🏴‍☠️🌴

A photograph of the poker chip set in its padded latching carrying case on a wooden table. There are ten rows of chips in five different denominations. There are two decks of cards in the case.

Close-up of the blue 25 point chip and black 100 point chip. The blue 25 chip features an image of AWU mascot Carver. The black 100 chip features AWU mascot Spike. Both characters are in pirate garb.

Close-up photo of the white single point chip and orange five point chip. The white 1 chip shows the AWU logo. The orange chip features a drawing of AWU mascot Arc in pirate garb.

Close-up photo of the orange 5 point chip and yellow 500 point chip. The yellow chip features a drawing of AWU mascot Price dressed in pirate garb.

The #AWU2025 poker chip set! This was the set that was auctioned for charity.

This year, the chips in the two prize sets were given unique designs that feature the AWU mascot characters. This is a beautiful and functional memento that will likely last for decades, and I am so happy to take it home.

AWU #7 done and in the books ❤️
Which means mine and @gigabytefox.bsky.social's traditional photo
