Wesley has been a powerhouse of concept art for decades. He's inspired a generation of character designs and artists.
Now that Disney has their hands on AI generative software, literally trained with his art, they're kicking him to the curb.
It's not just junior artists being displaced. Clearly nobody is safe, regardless of skill and experience.
Sorry, Wesley. This sucks.
I baked cookies and got to spend some time with friends today. It filled me with so much joy. It was genuinely so healing for me. I don't know what comes next, but I know I have a ton of stellar people in my corner and that doesn't change based on where I'm employed.
The last few nights I've just been dreaming of creating things and I'm so hyped. My dreams used to be endless impossible puzzles with high stakes and I never finished them before waking up. It's so refreshing to be back in a creative headspace

-Painting my Emperor's Children
Oh yeah and getting back into animating. I have a degree in 3D animation and game design, but started in QA at Activision the week after I graduated. My goopy goblin brain went crazy for it, where I'd get into it, then it was suddenly the next day. Puzzles also do this to me 😅
@JustTeddii I appreciate the thanks. I was very passionate about my work and I'm glad to see it out in the world now.
I am also really glad to see you are still with Epic ❤️
Tbh I just wanna wake up not immediately thinking about the state of things, what I did wrong, or how I need to find a job in an industry that doesn't have much opportunity for QA - so what do I do different? Every other job has left me fighting full on panic attacks 😮💨
