GHOST IN THE SHELL 2026

The Torn Fountainhead - mockups of an imaginary survival horror title #ui #uidesign

Good morning from #Tokyo! On my way home from work yesterday, I rode the subway a bit further than usual, and took some #panoramic neighborhood photos around Hasune Station using @heliographe.studio's #65x24 app. #photography #streetphotography #japan #UrbanGaze #photoblog @bskyphotos.bsky.social

After-Work Panoramas from Hasune, Tokyo, Japan

Coming back from the office yesterday evening, I got off the subway two stops past my home station, and took a walk to shoot some neighborhood panoramas.

Avatar Aang is out! Go watch! These are some sketches and studies I did while on it as I was trying to get the hang of the style. A lot of it referencing Kihyun Ryu's work.

Said everything, these are some of the 2D shots (there are more but these are my favorite) from the movie. I learned so much from the 2D team, full of incredible people, Michael, Husain, and Jacob Tobin that helped me to finish that Ocean Spirit shot. Despite everything, I'm happy for being here 🥹

These are the very first paintings I made for Avatar Aang. I designed the art style for the ancient Sonam and Tagah scenes throughout the film!

That's a relief!

Absolutely no AI whatsoever in the art / design process!

This is the hard part. Objectively a lot of talented artists worked on AA:TLA! But if you see AI referenced in production even once, it does make one wonder how much was used elsewhere in the project. I think it’s fair to support and honour their hard work while still holding healthy skepticism.

It absolutely does. I think it's a gorgeous movie and lots of people did phenomenal work on it, but it stings that I now have to wonder to what degree it's tainted by this garbage

Hnf, this is the stuff that gets poisoned by poor leadership taking the AI pill. Look at this amazing work! It's great. I just want to be excited for the film and the hard work and the artistry that is in it, and then their leadership just had no filter using ChatGPT or bragging about it publicly.

Some shots from the film I got to do in layouts/cleanup~ really glad I got to draw the whole Gaang~ .

I really hate this, on a number of levels. The skill that's showcased in the movie, in this craft, is HANDMADE, 2D animation. RAW, HUMAN EFFORT. I want to put my faith in such an expression of art, craft, skill, as organic. And bluntly, I'm tired of being let down like this.

I dont know if this is brazen or it has just become so normalized that people who use the stuff don't see it anymore but the text that opens the final paragraph on the right on the big slides for your sdcc presentation is WILD

Just finished watching the Avatar movie, had a great time with it, and then opened bluesky to this. I have trouble believing the movie I just saw was made by anything but a team of people who care deeply about 2d animation as a human art form. And yet we really shouldn't even have to wonder.

i was thinking about what it could feel like to use a computer.

I dream of quieter computing

Did not realize until now that both @joshkeaton.bsky.social and @blumspew.bsky.social are reprising their respective roles from Spectacular Spider-Man for Tokon, and doing stellar work of it too. Really making me wish there was more of this show

Sometimes it's easier to visualize low-level #picotron runtime bugs using a renderer, but with the added risk of spending time playing with pretty glitches.

There's a competition going on to decide the new € bank note designs and some of them are really striking (you can vote for your favorites here if you like!) #designsky

More mountain painting in gouache 🌿💖

Initial impression: this looks really good! Kind of into the idea of an Avatar as the antagonist (if that is actually what's going on), and maybe some sci-fi elements? Might have to rewatch Korra leading up to this

Random fun Death Note trivia- I recognize all of L's computer hardware, a fun authentic time capsule. He uses an Apple Studio Display monitor, Apple Optical Pro mouse, and PowerMac G4 MDD model, all authentically from ~2002ish. It is also mildly amusing that L is a Mac and Light is a PC.

I made a new zine! Took me way too long to finish it, but I'm really happy how it turned out ✌️

Travelling through Saga Prefecture today on my way to Nagasaki. I stopped near Hamanoura, where you can get a great view of the ocean next to some terraced rice fields. It’s also apparently a popular spot with couples.
