Dream-Fractures

DeviantArt has been...weird these past few years. I've tried to stick with the growing pains of Eclipse, given the devteam patience with the new homepage and algorithm, watched as they unrolled new features. Some of them I liked, some of them I didn't care much for. However, I think I draw the line at the team endorsing AI. I come to this website to see what other artists like me are doing. I come here to appreciate the hard work that goes into rendering a painting, or to get inspired by that the people that have uploaded consistently for years. I DO NOT come here to admire the insulting amalgamations of AI. A part of me wants to leave DA, but another part of me wants to stay and keep in contact with the artists I admire. I really don't think that my art is what AI machines "learn" from/target, I'm not scared of my stuff being used. To be honest, a lot of the stuff I'm working on right now isn't... DA friendly. GameDev content isn't exactly deviation worthy. I can upload something

So! Recently I hit 30 YouTube subscribers, and I wanna do something to celebrate it! All you have to do to enter is: -Share this journal (Status, journal, etc) -Comment down below with a link to the share That's all!! Winners will receive a colored headshot/bust(as well as a speedpaint) similar to this: Winners will be picked Nov 12th, 2021. As is apparent from my gallery. I make monthly videos about game development, with the occasional speedpaint here and there. YouTube Link , if you're curious. Small update: Decided to extend the date, seemed a lot further away at first.
