Music producer, figure painter, sim racer. 🇦🇺 / He/him / Your AI slop bores me.
Still #WIP but very happy with it. Just some highlights to go I think. #miniaturepainting #Nerdlings #gaming #doom
I believe this follows precedent, but there's something paradoxical about registering copyright on a work, where some part of it can only exist due to the pillaging of copyright material... ? [imo; not a lawyer]. And then; no protection for THAT work being fed back into the plagiarism engine..?
The Korea Music Copyright Association (KOMCA) will now allow AI-assisted music to be registered for copyright, provided the creator made substantial creative contributions. Works generated solely through AI prompts will remain ineligible.
Another lore drop, I do #simracing I race in VR, mostly endurance races in a team of 2 on #iracing Typical races are 6-12 hours, we tend to alternate 1 hour stints. I once did a 24hr for charity, it was an amazing experience Only do a couple races/year these days as prep takes a lot of time 🏁
VR! Trak Racer TR80 lite, second hand Fanatec Clubsport gear, and my trusty Reverb G2 headset. BST-1 bass shaker mounted under seat. I adore this rig. Minimal, cost-effective, with incredible immersion, and eating only 70x140cm of floor space. Has seen me through many hours of enduros 🏁
Day 9: Gustave Started basing out the hair with brown paint in water, applied by brush. I find hair both uninteresting AND difficult to paint 😅 so will break up across diff sessions to keep my focus. #garagekit #hobbystreak #minipainting #gaming #expedition33 #3dprinting #h3llcreator #figures
I think being radicalized against art might be a watershed unmitigated failure type of moment for this one life you get to live in this universe
Just a small update on my 1/4 Lady Maria build, I sculpted a more accurate face and printed-painted it with a less heavy grimdark wash
Day 8A: Gustave. Painted mo/brows. Added sclera, then iris outline. Filled in with green/brown, and then dotted pupil. At <3mm wide, these eyes were a serious challenge. 2x phone cam is v unflattering, but looks good irl. I've ruined eyes before by chasing perfection; it's always a risk!
Day 7: Gustave Started facial hair. Mostly brown, dry brushing (not super dry) and then short strokes. Beard done(?). Will need more time on moustache. I also darkened the colour of the wound on his forehead with some brown wash (no pic) as I felt bad 😭 #hobbystreak #3dprinting #minipainting
Day 6B: Gustave I then had to ruin this amazing skin tone 😭 with mud and blood, using a toothbrush to flick dilute paint at the sides of his head. I used a sponge for the main abrasion on his forehead #expedition33 #modelmaking #resinprinting #hobbystreak #hobby #painting #garagekit #minipainting
These "we have made an AI so powerful" warnings are straight-up advertisements, btw. No different than "we have made an Oreo so delicious all other snack artists must relent."

This wonderful AI image labeller moderation list has returned to bluesky!
ANNOUNCEMENTS AND UPDATES! Thank you for your patience, everyone. Yes, we are back.
Aella A lovely bust from Neko Galaxy Miniatures. They have great stuff if you like painting larger scale than 35mm. #paintingminiatures #minipainting #bust #cyberpunk #nekogalaxyminiatures
NEW: A glimpse at how AI image generators are used. Researchers set up a fake image editor on Hugging Face and within a week received 1,000 prompts. 73% of them were sexual and 83% of those were asking for people (women) to be “undressed”. Around 6% of the sexual requests also targeted minors
Hugging Face Has a Deepfake Nudes Problem
Researchers tested top image editing models on Hugging Face and found they could easily create explicit deepfakes—and 1,000 image editing prompts show how people use the software.

Raya is finished! I am happy with how it turned out and the model was made by @roninartsworkshop.bsky.social #mini #art #3dprint #smallbusiness #smallartist
Shadowheart face recolor done ✌️ I hope the client likes it 🥸 I'm planning to do a video about it if someone is interested. (The last pic is how I received it) #shadowheart #bg3 #figurepainting
ALright! Bust is done. She was really fun to paint up, with the zombie skin and regular human skin contrast. But shout out to @thekatacombs.bsky.social 's Nezuko for modeling for the cat companion!
Danea the Lantern Bearer Her lantern isn't lit, but maybe she'll get a glow-up in the future if I want to do some OSL. Seems like a good candidate for it 75mm model from @twingoddessminis.bsky.social #paintingminiatures #twingoddessminiatures #human #cleric #dnd #pathfinder #3dprinting
