Always Putting Big Work Into Shading 😤

Hey.

You may have seen a fundraiser going around looking to hire a lobbyist to go to DC and lobby against AI art - it's been boosted by pretty big names, after all.

This fundraiser is explicitly allying with groups like uhhh Disney, Universal, and the RIAA - and the person who's running it is a crypto nerd who's a big fan of NFTs.

I'm not going to be the one to pretend that AI and AI art has no problems - that's why I started a group for ethical AI use, after all. But I think if there's gonna be an opposition to AI you can probably do better than laying your lucre at the table of some of the most litigous, anti-fandom corporations in existence? If you're interested in getting Metallica 2.0: No Fanart Allowed Boogaloo, this is where it's going.

(And this isn't even getting into the problems with the fundraiser itself, which seems to be built like 90% on misinfo and outright lies about how AI works)

"We conducted 50 airstrikes on #Saddam and the 'deck of cards' and never killed a single one of them."

I really think THE single most surprising false truth that was revealed to me in adolescence is the classic “bad people lie and cheat” statement.

By age 17, it was basically rammed into my head really hard that a lot of people we on the surface believe are “good” are subject to doing all the stuff that “bad” people do, and a lot of people who are mistreated and shoved to the side are actually really good people with bad curb appeal who just get misunderstood.

But yeah - I absolutely am still shocked by how many “good” people I’ve met who just openly cheat in relationships, manipulate others, steal things, lie, used to bully - all sorts of shit.

It’s just a bit unsettling to think about how most of us have secret lives in one way or another, yet we feel so ashamed of that aspect of our nature that we just push our society’s false truths onto the younger generations. It just makes them feel responsible and guilty for things that most people frankly have for many, many years been unable to master in their lifetime. https://www.instagram.com/p/BvSuSvFA10M/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n4h648t2nlk6

Always remember with comics: STORYBOARDS AREN’T SUPPOSED TO BE PRETTY. THEY JUST NEED TO FLOW! Spend time on the final art, not the sketches!! If too much time is spent on making things pretty early on in the sketch/layout process, the final art will come out stiff. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvzke4IgPyi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=77j5n8u7vdp3

Guess I’m coloring this drawing again B ) I gotta work on some new art for my pals at @catchmeyesterday and my comic but I fell in love with this drawing’s facial expression and needed to change stuff. It’s silly to not make changes when I see where improvement can be made
