Pixel art of various animal themed robot bosses. The tag at the top says MegaGear X

People keep saying the codenames in Metal Gear Solid sound like Megaman X bosses, so I decided to give them actual designs. Matches the scale of my other X mockups.

Something I've been sitting on for several years that I finally decided to wrap up tonight.

I'll keep an ear and an eye out

I've never heard it broken down quite like that before but it seems so obvious. your shape language and color sense are great, but your drafting skills are right up there too

Promise I wasn't fishing for compliments but thank you for saying the thing about char design! I'm feeling the itch to delve more into that lately

Got caught up a bit now that I'm not up to my ears in work and i feel like i missed out on THE MAGFest. Hope the rest of you had a great time (and please come again next year)!

I had the opportunity to storyboard the intro for Fionna and Cake season 2 and this was the animatic I put together for it!

Shout out to @smallbu.bsky.social for going so hard animating the final version. And to composer Amanda Jones for the heart pumping score!

These are so charming! I love these Mary Blair Quills

I have fond memories of watching Noddy as a young child. Peak character design!

This is objectively a crime.

For two seconds, I mixed up Douglas Adams and Scott Adams, and was like damn, I don't really remember Hitchhiker, but wow all these guys are tainted. Who gives a fuck about Dilbert

Hello again, #Portfolioday! I make art

www.leiananitura.com

It’s #PortoflioDay again! I have 5yrs of experience and love to storyboard and work with a team to create a cool show. Let’s work together, I need a job real dang bad!

Sheesh.

Okay, I trust you and you specifically.

Nine years into my career, I'm still suspicious when people say my draftsmanship is really good that it's code for "You're okay at everything else". One, I look to my right and my left and it's wall-to-wall great draftspeople. And drawing is still hard! It's still clumsy and laborious as ever!

Spotify no longer running ICE recruitment ads, after US government campaign ends The ad campaign ended in late 2025, the Swedish streaming giant confirmed, having previously said, despite protests, that it did not violate advertising policies

Not going back to Spotify bc the only reason they aren’t running ICE ads is because the campaign ended. Meaning if the government did another campaign, Spotify has no issue putting the ads back on. Continue cancel Spotify.

Spotify Confirms ICE Recruitment Ads Are No Longer Running on Platform Spotify has confirimed that ICE recruitment ads are no longer running on its platform following criticism from last year.

Spotify chose to run ICE ads all of last year, as ICE’s actions became more brutal and more deadly.

The company’s confirmation that it is no longer running ICE recruitment ads does not signal a newfound moral compass.

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best. It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI

Rough animation is so hard. I've done it before but not on a full-time basis like this, and I'm pretty humbled. Between all the asskicking though, I'm learning the good stuff!!

Haha, maybe! We're both small people, so it's not surprising any chemical shift hits us like a truck. Hopefully calorie and protein-loading early helps you too - it's a gamechanger for me!

Obviously our experiences aren't 1 to 1, but this is pretty much how it works for me on Concerta. The fix for me is 1. Do not pair it with caffeine (except for black tea in my case, Idkw); 2. Eat a LOT in the morning, like two protein-rich breakfasts before the meds really kick in.

Not familiar with the characters or campaign, but this is geyorgeous!

When you started outlining the shadows, I said "oh my god" out loud. So good.

while my mom was pregnant with me, she was delivering chinese food on bike in new orleans. i like to think that the music she heard in the streets made me the way i am now.

happy new year everyone!

Uuu you

HNY, Leigh!

This one's somehow more emotional than 1/1/2021
