I bought a cheap flash for my little canon demo and it came in the original 1970s packaging. Please appreciate the back of the box.
No YOU keep buying dead analogue things as projects.
I bought a broken #CanonEE17 for very little because there wasn't much to lose & I might just be able to save it from the bin. After evenings spent fixing & putting back together the little guy (meter & lens polish to-do). Test roll cinefilm was a bad idea. Lower iso next. #filmphotography #35mm
I took this photo on Sunday, visiting my Grandad for lunch with my Dad. At the time I was just taking a break to stretch my legs, but now I'd happily sit on these steps being soaked in spray. #anamorphic #photography #heatwave
The humidity today. I am so sticky I am a gecko and will soon seek a small glass wall to scuttle along joyously.

The Wrens are having a full on rave this morning, little guys absolutely going for it.
If this were an adventure, who would be your two companions?

Artist, repost with your yellow art! theres lots of other colors in this one too but I think it fits the bill :)
I have had so much on and haven't drawn anything for myself for weeks, which has made me a sad badger. LUCKILY @itsquinns.bsky.social has the most inspiring videos on ttrpgs and I can feel burn out fading. Quick postit listening to youtu.be/Fp_irLWtsGc I'll get back to personal projects again.
Middle daughter got a metal detector for their birthday and I am now in possession of various epochs of bottle caps, some keys to lost locks, coins various and a single whistle.
I've been posting recent pics over on my side blog if that sort of thing interests you. Otherwise I'm busy doing house stuff 🫠 hopefully get some proper drawing time again soon.
Communing with the previous tennants. #photography #oxford #oxfordnaturalhistorymuseum #sirui

This is my ribbon twirling, umbrella wielding glamour bard, her name is: Oscilia Foxglove! Heres the design process from post-its to final sheet, this character design was utter comfort zone and a lot of fun to draw together many of my favourite things! #bard #dnd #characterdesign #art
Enjoying just exploring shapes and patterns through the theme of an old idea I had rolling around.
30min sketches. Forever ago, there was a facebook group called spitpaint with a daily theme which I'd try to do at lunch. I dont think I could do this now, I was painting a lot of key art at the time, these were a lovely throw away break from more high fidelity work, a place to try out ideas.
I got an anamorphic lens... so everything will be W I D E from now on.

I think this is probably the first time in two years where I've actively enjoyed making something I'm going to have so much fun doing all the writing for this silly stuff
The most chthonic hulders in Underoak live deep underground where smells are used for navigation, cultural signalling, declaring warnings etc. This guards fill the air with incense showing their allegiance. It's an overwhelming place for first time visitors from the surface. #characterdesign

I've been hiring concept artists for years, here's my old thread of general advice, from my experience. I wrote this after reviewing artist's work that had been reading either bad advice or niche advice being given as blanket advice. I hope it's a helpful addition to the mix of things to consider.
Portfolio advice, from a lead who hires Concept Art (Originally a twitter thread I wrote before the site self imolated) I wrote this after a weekend of portfolio reviews- 1. Like a maths exam, please please show your working. I want to see thumbs options, mid options and of course a final design.
