Extremely useful artist reference. Matt is doing very important work for our community as a whole.

Last night, I stumbled onto this reference website that I'd never heard of before, and am blown away by its quality. Highly, highly recommended. www.dimensions.com

Deepsea angler fish are famous for their fearsome appearance, but they pose no real threat to humans. Some are larger, but they are usually small, less than 10 inches long. The males are much smaller and parasitic on the females.

A little guy! Because giving a weasel a giant sword feels very correct in my head. #art #characters #mustelids #sketchbook

saw this on twitter, Stephen Worth made some extremely good points about what originality is animation production design these days and how nostalgia sometimes passes this point of no return in terms of relatability... ...and what it means to be a consumer vs a creative as an animation artist

I need everyone here to know about my #1 favorite male model site because they are AMAZING freephotomuscle.com It's super buff Japanese guys doing everything they can think of while shirtless and flexing as hard as possible, what's not to love

This is a reproduction of the footwear that horses were made to wear in Japan. In the old days, there were no iron horseshoes in Japan, so horses had to wear footwear made of woven straw to prevent them from slipping in winter. I went to the museum to do a period study of the modeling for accuracy.

OKAY. Here is how to actually turn off Gemini AI for your google workspace! 1) contact google support from admin panel and keep asking for a supervisor/to speak to a person. 2) ask them to enable settings in "Gemini for google workspace" 3) turn it off. I just did this and it worked.
