I feel a lot of younger artists nowadays are in the path of permanent wrist damage and burnout with the amount of stuff they feel almost obligated to make in order to feel like they are still relevant and present on peoples timelines.
I was like that with comms, and all I got was damage on my body.
I constantly think about the great artworks we've love this generation to the content mill algo. Everyone pushed into daily output, highly disincentivized to take risks, absolutely stifling to artistic growth.
I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.

more of this stuff. protagonist once again laying uselessly on the ground
today in Comic I'm Not Working On: I desperately want a form-fitting velvet dress with poof sleeves. maybe shorter so I can project a bit of an r crumb vibe

We are on the hunt for three Art Mods and One Graphics Mod! Please message this account if interested π€
It's good to know some are still out there!
It's a great goal, I really look forward to it! I know the decrease in blogs with such stuff (esp comics related) is a combo of enshitification and push to monetize everything over the years. It's a bummer

Watching Urasawa and going through late Jesse Hamm's blog made me realize how I miss reading about craft. I feel everything with actual thought behind it now is either paywalled or a video. I know it's a sign of the times but man.
Viktor from Arcane in his fully evolved form, his mask fractured revealing his real eye beneath. He is hunched over, sitting on the back of the Jayce statue. Jayce is frozen and unresponsive in this form, only kneeling and holding the hammer in front of him.
how'd you think those flowers got up there?
lots of sad brooding to water them.

Whenever I feel like illustrating some sword and sorcery I think of this analysis of Frazetta's style, written by the late great Jesse Hamm
