Found this on Pinterest. And it made me wonder, what kind of pin needle one would need to put a sculpted clay spider on it and how? I kind of like the idea of having a little bee sittingon my vest. ^^

Every now and then I enjoy sculpting. Minis usually, but I also like looking at these. There are a lot on pinterest & Etsy for sale: Leafs, owls, shrooms etc. (Although thanks to AI I can't say if they are all real nor not) What would you use to make these (for sale)? Wood, clay, 3d print?

Oh hell yes. I mean, Primal was already pretty close. I kind of thought he would become Conan in the end after never speaking his name. ^^ I love his work. I would also love to see him do a Warhammer short.

A Conan The Barbarian cartoon headed by Genndy Tartakovsky of course sounds interesting, but my first thought is that it’s predictable that Warner could’ve had this on HBO Max but instead licensed it to Amazon for some shortsighted reason www.thewrap.com/creative-con...

I am currently thinking about new revenue paths. Offers at local schools about art, online courses, tutoring perhaps. Conventions or online stores in general. - Or something else entirely, like payed DM for role playing. ^^ #money

With King of Tokyo - Godzilla finally out, I can begin sharing the illustrations I made for the board game. So here is the Cover. There was a lot of positive feedback for the art style in particular and great interaction with fans during the fair in Bologna. #MEart #boardgame #comicart

The Cover art for King of Tokyo Godzilla, by Markus Erdt. Godzilla stands as a black shape in front of a yellow and red background that takes the shape of the other kaiju monsters. A vertical title frames the box on the right, similar to Japanese titles.

I have uploaded some pieces on ArtStation again after maybe 3 years of abstinence-because of the AI stuff. I immediately got bombarded with 4 spam emails of strange people, wanting to buy my art. :(

Oh man, this year really tries it all. Moving, bank, taxes, spendings + few client jobs. And now I was told that I might have to go to the hospital for 6-8 weeks. At least I live in Germany and not the USA, but still. Big oof.

I haven't really had much in terms of private commissions since 2025 and I wonder if it has to do with AI, the economy or if my reach just isn't big enough. Or maybe I have to do some NSFW stuff. ^^

The motion capturing that you can do today with a rather basic setup and still get results like VTubers is really impressive. This doesnt even have anything to do with AI as far as I know. It makes me curious as to where this will go, and how it might change movie making options too.
