The More I Watch This Man The More I Relate To Him-

New profile picture. Heavily inspired by season 4 Martin.

New oc drop!

Say hi to Kenko, she's part of a big family of foxes, one of 7 siblings to be precise. She's 21 and a business woman, handling deals and services. She's sharp but also really sassy, able to tell a person's intentions by a single gaze.

Hello! I'm new to here so I guess I'll introduce myself ^^;

Hi, I'm Oliver and I'm an artist/cosplayer. Yall can expect a bunch of art like this one here of my D&D campaign :3

So I’m making a Martin cosplay

And I don’t understand what’s supposed to be written on his vtuber as I want to implement it in the design. Here’s how it looks so far:

But I want to move the upper writing on the other side of the hoodie but I don’t know if that ruins the text.

"A disgrace to the family name, and a disgrace to the army for joining those filthy axis scums. We raised you better than this Laurence, there's only you and the people you can use"

Kozachenko's mother and father are not happy with him at all, the family issues go deeper than everyone thought, but the loyalty he has to them is unchangeable no matter what, after all, he did deserve whatever treatment they had in mind for such a fuck up in the family

(Sobbing, my little asshole Koza, the DM started his arc yesterday and I'm eating it up, going for that Koza character development)

Here's to a new day, hope filled and bright.

More Kenko art, saw this one image on pinterest, and immediately knew I had to recreate it with Kenko

Good omens has consumed my life-

Dancing to the nightingales song

Malevolent fanart, RAWHRR!

I keep forgetting I can just post sketchbook dumps here, so enjoy :>

There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue! 

I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product. 

Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?

Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.

Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases. 

Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use.
