Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has done the impossible...

...It has given me an irrational hatred of mimes. Seriously, fuck mimes.

Update: April 24, 2025

Hey folks. Sorry I haven't posted any art or fiction in a while, but FFG keeps sending me contracts.

I've got some good news on the health front: My blood sugar is finally back to healthy le...

MRI Update 3

Good news: there's apparently nothing wrong with my brain.

Bad news: the cause of my vision problems remains a mystery.

Helldivers 2

Getting a little too much into Helldivers 2 right now. How much is too much? I dunno, is making homebrew rules and gear to play Helldivers on Starfinder too much?

MRI Update 2

Well, I had to lie still in a noisy tube for a while, but the exam's done. Will get results in a week or so.

MRI Update

The machine's computer broke when it was my turn. Had to reschedule for later this month.

Update: February 2024

Vision problems haven't gotten worse, but they haven't gotten better either. Getting an MRI next week, hopefully those problems are just brain damage and not cancer.

Update: November 2023

So, what's been happening lately?

Dune and Star Trek

Which work do you consider more humanist? Dune, or Star Trek?

Tabletop Gaming

I have been playing a lot of Starfinder lately, and since I've been investing in Star Wars Legion as well, it meant I had a lot of miniatures to use for an adventure in a galaxy far, far away. ...

Starfinder

When they said that the biggest challenge to playing a Tabletop RPG would be getting enough people together, they weren't joking.

Merry Christmas!

And a happy new year!

Thoughts on AI Art 3

A lot of the predictions, optimistic or pessimistic, about the future of AI generated art, are based on some premises I think are flawed, such as:

-Everyone secretly wants to be an artist, an...

Thoughts on AI art 2

Turns out it's easier to spot AI-generated art when it tries to imitate mechanical designs. 

There's some irony there: Machines, having no eye to design other machines.

Thoughts on AI art I

I suppose it was only a matter of time before someone thought it would be a great idea to automate visual creativity, and make the idea a reality.

As for me, well... I suppose it's a good thi...

Just letting you all know that yes, I'm still alive and still busy with my contract, which, sadly, I still cannot talk about until my employer releases the artwork :/

Thought I'd share this sweet track. 

If you're wondering, Haven is a video game that's... pretty good overall, with the music and visuals being the two things that's outstanding about it...

Some Babylon 5 wisdom:

No dictator, no invader, can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.  There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.  Against that power, governments...
