Made basic beginners guide to using the camera in storyboards. the gist being the camera is for revealing information & telling the story. Obviously there's exceptions to this, but when you're just starting out trying to get these ideas down first before moving on to crazier dynamic stuff. 1/4
every artist should study maquettes. It's hard to find them irl, but places like sketchup and artstation often have 3d-rotate-able sculpts for you to study. I try to envision everything I draw in this way
is there a version of PureRef, but a 3D program where you can rotate OBJs or something with a highly minimal interface? @pureref.bsky.social I think I've asked before but I'm not sure I remember the response we need to bring back maquettes as an animation aid
I think the biggest damage to the art community was the obsolescence of gallery sites (y!, deviantart, etc) and the rise of scroll-by social media, like twitter and even tumblr. Art is not ''content'', you shouldnt need to post art every day (or every month!) to be relevant. This mindset sucks.
Let’s see, a new pinned post maybe. I am an illustrator and I also make pictures with my own hands for animation and games sometimes.
Tag yourself. I’m the fish in the cup. Sometimes the judgy sun.

I was so touched by all the kind messages I received yesterday. It has given me a lot of encouragement for what will now be a big swing: My next animated project will be the first episode of a gothic horror interpretation of the Nutcracker called "Clara and the Below."
My new pins are back in stock!! I was a bit unprepared for just how much you guys liked these last time. rjpalmerstore.com/collections/...

Hello bluesky and #portfolioday ! My name is Mikey and I am a 2D environment artist. I have designed and illustrated for ttrpgs, animation, and games. If you need worldbuilding, design, and/or backgrounds hmu🌟
I got to do some illustrations for the @illumicrate.bsky.social edition of Song of the Lioness! one of my favourite childhood series, it was a dream to work on these!! ⚔️✨
It's so crazy how the comics, animation, and video games industries are wildly popular billion dollar profit type shit and yet there is no money and no jobs for the people who make that possible
Being a creative right now feels like being attacked with steel rakes every time you open your phone
