Reblogging So I Can Print These Out Later. My Page May Be Dead But I Am Not ❤️

Day Whatever of trying and failing to get my drawing program to cooperate (curse you, Krita!!!).

Luckily for me, I did finally learn how to scan my sketchbook instead of taking shitty pictures of it, AND I have a finished drawing in reserve, apparently! *faints in relief*

People ask me if I did an OC for Rise. Do they even know me?! Of course I did! It's like the first thing I do when I get into a show. This is Fae, and while anthro fox girls wielding bladed fans may be a little...ahem...Look I just started watching Samurai Rabbit, I swear I didn't know about Kitsune when I made Fae. For what it's worth I'm not married to the fan weapon and her personality is VERY different.

There is a whole story in my head for her that I may or may not share, but for now here's my first attempt at a whole piece (above...full disclosure, that's not my background. Please bully me if that's not ok). I'll add the concept sketches and doodles in a separate post.

I doodle on receipts :v

I'm obsessed with her

A hero of the people

The Outbursts of Everett True was a comic strip that ran in papers from 1905 to 1927, wherein the aforementioned Everett True regularly beat the everliving shit out of rude people as a warning to anyone else who might consider being rude. Men have not only been taking up too much room on public transport for about as long as public transport has existed, but the people around them have been irritated about it for at least a hundred years. The next time someone tries to claim that manspreading is a false phenomenon, please direct them to this strip so that Everett True can correct their misconceptions with an umbrella upside the head.

So Netflix is releasing this animated movie but here’s the thing - all backgrounds are done in AI. No actual BG artists were hired or credited for this work.

And here’s the kicker - I gave them too much credit. I realized that not even the AI users are credited apparently. Check this out:

“+Human”. No names, no nothing. 

I know it’s tempting, but please don’t hate-watch this thing. Numbers equal profit even if the people watching are just doing it to mock. Don’t give Netflix and other studios even more incentive to fire more animators and replace them with machines trained on their work and skill. 

Hilarously, the excuse used is ‘there aren’t enough artists’. That’s not true - there are more than enough artists, but the real issue is that no one wants to pay a living wage. Here’s a short video about the reality of animation in Japan.

The biggest winners in this equation at the end of the day are the AI infrastructure owners - owners of Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, etc. Do not feed this machine, it creates more monopolization of entire industries, raises a powerful few and dehumanizes the rest.

I like to imagine they're blasting T. Swift to appease the younger brothers and Donnie is this close to violence.
