Clever little budget-priced CPRG just left early access with a good launch discount, too.

A weird swampy fantasy setting, semi-real-time combat ala Vagrant Story and a cool claymation-esque art style. Also hugely undersold so far.

Go check it out, RPG folks.

A monk in blue robes stands against a rock wall in a ravine, afraid of the group of tigers waiting below. Above him -and without him realizing it- a ranger sitting on the branches of a tree aims an arrow at him.

Thanks to everyone who dropped by my booth in Montreal last weekend! Thanks to Silver Goblin and @fabtcg.com, too.

Here's another card I got to paint: Tiger Trap. This gave me headaches, but I'm kind of happy I got to paint it! APs are on the way, should have them next time I see you guys.

An anthropomorphic otter, squirrel and mouse dressed in medieval-style clothing sit among rocks. Each one checks a weapon - a javelin for the otter, a sling and stones for the squirrel, and a dagger for the mouse. Next to each one is a bowl of food: shrimps for the otter, nuts for the squirrel, and berries for the mouse.

I might need to move out soon as I can't afford to live in my current place if I can't get any work to pay the rent and bills.
Please, share as much as possible.

«If I hated OpenAI more than Google, I hate Anthropic more than OpenAI» ✊🔥

People should stop claiming Anthropic is «good and ethical» They are just playing their game, with the same masks as always and people who believe them, are been used as tools to wash their image. Don’t be part of that.

Last year I decided to put my health first and take an extended break from paid illustration. I found I had an inexplicable compulsion to document all the birds I can see from my house in the most time consuming way possible.

Some predators:

For sure, one thing is breaking a system, and a whole other thing is what we do after that, especially regarding people's ideas.

Don't tempt me! I already have too much on my plate at the moment, otherwise I'd jump on that boat right away. If you do, let me know! Would love to check it out.

That's right, no real democracy while capitalism remains in power. It's hard not to see it when you dig a little. And while I do think sharing stuff online can help a little, mostly to raise awareness, it's important for people to actually gather in physical spaces and talk about these issues.

Incredible, they scraped all our works for free and say it's "fair use," but if another LLM scrapes "them* it's an "industrial-scale distillation attack." Kettle, meet pot.

An elderly man with long, flowing white hair and beard, wearing red and black robes, as well as white and gold accessories, stands in the middle of a pond, with the water up to his knees. His robes float on the water and dissolve into the air. He's lifting his head, and his hands are slightly stretched forward, facing upwards. In front of him, a large crane is forming from the mist swirling all around. The pond merges with the cloudy sky, with no clear horizon visible.

Look Within, painted last year for @fabtcg.com's Compendium of Rathe. Kind of out of my comfort zone, being such a calm and subtle scene, but it was fun to explore different options for this one, especially since I didn't quite know what direction would work best here.
