Heyyy everyone!

Dropping another long-lost artwork, this time the papercraft I made for the latest in the series of mugs from Illumicrate! Featuring Violet, Tairn and Andarna from Fourth Wing by @rebeccayarros !

When it comes to including Tairn and Violet in the same frame, we had two choices, either a giant dragon head, or an ant sized Violet. We went with the former, which probably makes a great companion to the Gideon the Ninth mug, in this case!

The dragons are my favorite aspect of Fourth Wing, so it was great to depict the bond between these three, and the sassy nature of their relationship.

Side note: Often, I wish I really could use metallic paper in these papercrafts, (in this case, gold for Andarna) but it's truly difficult to photograph, as you have to get the lighting just right so it's not blowing out the shot with bright reflective white. An example of this is with Wrought in Gold (Gleam papercraft), and even then I was using dull metallic paper for most of it. So for the sake of posting it here for you fine people, I stick with standard stock paper of yellow and oranges in the spirit of gold!

Latest Sketch-a-Wish voted on by my lovely Patreon

Latest Sketch-a-Wish voted on by my lovely Patreon members for August! Inspired by Emily Wilde's Map of the Otherlands (Emily Wilde #2) by @heather_fawcett, featuring Emily and Wendell in some morning afterglow. I love how Emily is being indecisive about doing the traditional romantic things before Wendell wakes, but then he cuddles up with her anyway, deciding for her. Too cute. I kept his bedhead just for you, Em.

Also while working on this, I learned that there were mechanical pencils in the late 19th / early 20th century, and they're very cool and steampunk-ish. 😮

Gotta address some more AI BS in the creative spac

Gotta address some more AI BS in the creative space!

If you don't know, @nanowrimo is an annual creative writing event that happens in the month of November. Let's take a look at their mission statement:

"NNWM believes in the transformational power of creativity. We provide the structure, community, and encouragement to help people find their voices, achieve creative goals, and build new worlds on and off the page.""

Not sure how that's going to last, now that they've just released a statement today about their policy to include AI in their creative writing space.

The TL;DR is, they don't care if you use AI or not in their event. But if you condemn others from using it in their event, you are ablest and classist!

Meaning, NNWM believes differently-abled people aren't able to be creative without the assistance of plagiarism.

That people are okay with spraying a nice coat of copyright infringement all over the work if they're not able to afford professional feedback.

That people can succeed with landing a publishing contract when they regurgitate a manuscript that has been generated off of millions of other writers’ work.

Photoshop, Scrivener, Digital tablets and computers and even a pencil and paper are all privileged tools. But there are also many other creativity tools available to those who are disabled or financially constrained, where it doesn't impede or inhibit or replace their creativity.

Is AI also a tool? Yes. We don't give ten flying 💩 about the tool.

We care about the theft of our creativity that other people are profiting off of with a few keystrokes and a click. It's the training data that has scraped 10 billion images and documents and medical records and child s images from the internet, and is using those materials to infringe in the creative space for profit.

That isn't the power of creativity that you so strongly stand by in your mission statement, and the fact that you're encouraging young minds and new writers to stunt their creativity instead of fostering it and letting it flourish, is the most *ss-backward thing I've seen from any pro-AI company thus far.

Continuing with my long-lost art posting with the artwork I created for the dust jacket and endpapers for the @fairyloot edition of A Tempest of Tea by @hafsahfaizal!

I felt so privileged to have the chance to read an early copy of ATOT in order to prepare to work on this! I've already previously gushed about this, but I'm such a big fan of Hafsah's work and was very much anticipating this release. I immediately fell in love with these characters and thought it would be a great presentation to explore their personalities with these Ocean's 11-style line-ups, where the front endpages feature their everyday outfits and the back endpages feature their heist outfits. I finished these before I worked on the pre-order incentive character cards so by that time I was truly comfortable with drawing them!

Since the endpages were so character focused, I offered to do a symbolic cover with an environment illustration on the back, and lots and lots of swirly steam! (in mauve, to match Arthie's hair) I had a few variations of this cover (which I posted on my Patreon a while back), but we ultimately went with the teapot focus! The flaps were a nice space to showcase the 'weapons' of choice for Arthie and Jin. A pistol and umbrella just gives those immediate Peaky Blinder vibes.
