What’s Been Up – May 2023

Hello! Just wanted to share and vent about things going on lately. I’ve come to accept the fact that I’m not really heavy on ideas right now. I tried many things since releasing the Jet Dancer game, but none of it really stuck. So I’ve been turning my attention to drawing just to keep active….

What’s Been Up – March 2023

I admit it–I’m in creative limbo. I want to make more stuff; make a new game; sell traditional illustrations. Even been pondering returning to the realm of comics, something I’ve never really done all that well. But alas, all I can seem to do is continue to practice drawing. (Warning: NSFW art ahead.) Since leaving…

What’s Been Up – January 2023 Edition

Hello, just wanted to talk about what I’ve been up to lately. After releasing the Jet Dancer game, I’ve been pondering my next move.

My thoughts on AI “Art”

AI is definitely a threat to artists. But it’s also not going to go away. People who are using AI instead of hiring an artist are the kind of folks who wouldn’t have been willing to pay your prices anyway. They would have looked for discounts, for free work, for whatever it takes to spend…

(@Dualmask) November 5, 2022 You read that correctly. Jet Dancer is done. I bounced back and forth entirely too much.

Updates: September 2022

Well, this month I had a birthday. Didn’t do much to celebrate it, just been doing what I’ve been doing: moving forward on the Jet Dancer game. I’m getting close to the end of the development process, at least when it comes to content and functionality. All the stages have been complete for a while…
