My favorite anti war films:
"Come and See" 1985
"Paths of Glory" 1957
"The Nightingale" 2018

Until you look the horrors of war in the eye you'll never truly rid yourself of the propaganda we grew up with. There is no glory in war only horrors and death.

Initial character designs for @victoriasetian.bsky.social and I's OGN "Children of the Night." I love looking back at first designs and see what carried through to the final characters.

Oo I'll look into it!

I think honestly graphics peaked in this era. let's just go back. bring back pre-rendered backgrounds and low(-ish) poly stuff with detailed textures.

Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life 2003

Legend of Mana 1999

Games are beautiful!

Chrono Cross 1999

Look at the AI engine interactiong with Leon's face. Just shows the inherent sexism and bias even within AI. Grace's lips are fuller, she has blush and fuller lashes.

In the video the announcer says nvidia is "trying to anticipate the original fully realized vision of the game developers." That is so insulting. R U kidding?! As if the developers didn't succeed bringing their vision to life. This game is so beautiful and realism should not be our goal post!

some details

Keep makin' that art, baby.
