Look familiar? New ref sheet for my main robot Surgy!

Actually, this is the first ref sheet I’ve ever made for him; this is about a whole decade overdue. I REALLY want to be prepped for @theartfight this year!

@rachstillsavage @MorePerfectUS Declining 8 years in a row from what I recall

If you are in the Idaho Falls area this weekend, you can find me at RetroX, and you can even peep some IsraClash decks early!

[Drak-Arts @DrakArts]

Alternatively, if Vol. 1 if is more your flavor, still $9.99, but you still get the same benefit on Gumroad towards Vol. 2 instead!

Here's a new bundle featuring 8 characters from the Isravere comic and upcoming IsraClash card game, with the artworks, WIPs, PSDs and vids for $9.99!

And on Gumroad, you can get Vol. 1 if you have it at a discount!

@Zytrine @BokutoNoAndy @digimon_tcg_EN A lot like a number of Pendulum Monsters in YGO where while they're a Spell card might have an inherent effect or one used on them to summon them into the Monster Zone

@PoHsuanLin Yeaaaah, I can definitely agree with that...

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

“Facial scans never leave your device, and Discord and vendors never receive it.”

Meanwhile people discovered you are using Persona service.

A service that specifically requires a person’s face or ID scan to be sent to Persona’s databases.

Caught lying again, Discord?

@digimon_tcg_EN So, YGO's Pendulums but Digimon

[Drak-Arts @DrakArts]

Get on board with the game here!

Have an Ichor!

@natalie_corsair oh late happy birthday!

@PoHsuanLin yikes

@kiwitalkz Even if there's a case of having same devs, 'keeping' them is just as much those who chose to move forward in career as those being laid off, etc. Prime as a sub-series has been around for around ~24 years, plenty of room for people to move on of their own volition anyways.

@tim_schueler @digimon_tcg_EN Raidramon (ENG) had to be 'corrected' back to its Japanese name Lighdramon in advance 'cuz it pre-emptively intruded on the actual future JP-named Raidramon (but as in "raid", romaji: Reidoramon)

Was pretty much the very early signal that Appmon were planned to be added later

[Drak-Arts @DrakArts]

@Harada_TEKKEN I owe quite a lot of my early direction in art to Tekken 1-Tag all the way back in elementary school. Many years spent trying to learn anatomy just to draw the characters by reading manuals and strategy guides.

Thank you for all the work you've put in for all these years!

Netflix is phrasing it like it's a done deal - but confirmation/approval doesn't happen until end of 2026 or early 2027.

This is called "manufacturing consent". They want to avoid giving people a chance to process this, and they're pushing a narrative that everything is fine and it's already done. It is not.

My knee jerk reaction is that this is a "bad thing". My deeper thought is that it's worse than we can imagine.
