💕it's a lot of iterations and just doing the same thing over and over again! i mostly learned more about the world and geography and translated it into something actually visible to others... also just A LOT of time dedicated for it. this one - as a redraw of original one - is so far 100+ hours...

we got no funds to really be able to put stuff aside and work on it, and little can be done with outdated hardware and little time nowadays. a kind follower ( @/will-i-chat.bsky.social ) donated quite a lot of money for me to be able to finally work on this map bc it's been neglected for years! /2

it's for the universe we've got over @varyel.com -- all characters i draw other than commissions are from there! we've got a bunch of stories, 80+ countries, 100+ languages, many many races-- just no funds to really take it anywhere. would love a game, would love comics - it's just hard as a duo. 1/

4 hours and 5 shading passes later... got it looking rad :)
time to do some shading for low-level elevation and do a physical / color pass with environment information, then oceans and then onto code~

like my magic actually affects world creation and the way waters flow and minerals deposit and my air and water circulation can be affected too (magic can cool down/heat up materials) so it's just lots of calculations it would be hard to translate to a program lol

there's a plethora of great software for mapmaking already, it's just... it feels too impersonal for me? i had this world since 2006 and went through like 4 map iterations, and this one it went through whole cycle of tectonic plates but... it's hard fantasy... i have **extra** physics in here ;w;

this hits close to home. :| for me it was high school - i hang around people who would be likely to offer me food because i ate once every 3-5 days. still grateful, but feels awful i could never pay them off and they eventually cut ties once i got sick (stomach got f'd horribly, had to quit school).

my rule of thumb is that if it /alters/ the image with something i cannot pinpoint the source of (through, for example, alt+picking the image or defining mixer brush from an image etc) i wont use it. but i also swapped fully to CSP and use no filters but blur nowadays so im biased here.

yeah, even talking with fellow artists theres always a huge gap in understanding this. it sucks because some people are already so traumatized by the current situation they jump directly to the accusations, forgetting the fact that we're fighting for AI ethics and consent - not rejecting technology.

personally i disagree with any unethical content generation, regardless of systems used. but i am pro-AI when it comes to medical & biological research, stellar exploration, safety testing etc. properly done machine learning is life saving and possibly planet saving in long-term but it needs control

we're also lacking a widespread & stable terminology to talk about AI. some people will say they use it because their fav service has AI powered algorithm, and others will deny "using it" because they imgGen for personal use instead of sales. there's also no clear line between mach. learning and AI.

As a non artist bothered by A/I, if you see any A/I generated images on #portfolioday, subscribe to @aimod.social (if you aren't already) and report the post to them. All of you put in the effort, so don't settle for those people trying to push themselves where they don't belong.

this! + a splash art to display in small part of the game should be priced differently than main marketing image. it's different to be just concept art and different main part of the branding. different if its personal use or small studio too.

you're making space for people to discuss stuff, to answer to you (like right now!) and it will make more people comfortable with you as a person.
a lot of artist struggle with being open (for me: audhd and cptsd makes me unapproachable a lot) and with being human, so it's even more appreciated 💕/2

"people don't buy art - they buy personality"
if your personality is being good, kind and relatable (with yapping) and you create something pretty (art) it will always have bigger impact on people than someone who makes jaw-dropping designs but never shows their human side. 1/

personally i think bodies should be treated as that - bodies and nothing else. existing cannot be inherently tied to sexuality or sexual display. but it is not up to me when i'm interacting with people, everyone has their own preference and *trauma* exists (i have ptsd from SA too, so eh).
