Larva Lamp.

This lamp is equipped with a handful of little *possibly sentient* grubs that float around in a viscous transparent liquid. Available at your nearby goblin wizard emporium.

that annoying ai RDJ-jon is still on top of every tma related tag, unmarked as ai. so i have to talk about this other post.

putting aside weird anatomy (why are there pits in her shoulder), the lack of anything approaching a character design aside from 'pretty white woman', how she's half undressed for some reason, and any number of other things - look closer at the background. we're being watched

what's... what are these

these eyes are genuinely so funny to me. they can't be by the same entity that made the original: a human artist would draw them in a style matching the portrait, and an image generator would either do that, or generate something more photorealistic

so im trying to figure out the thought process here. was it an artistic flair to feel like they 'made' the art? to try and beat the ai allegations? or just to make it more 'tma'-y? did op truly not see the vast difference in style between them and the rest of the image?

or did they just not care, said, 'Meh, im not gonna spend more than 10 mins on this - What am i, an artist?'

and hit post

#i wont maintag this because it rlly doesnt have much to do with tma #but i just. hfjddjdj im being serious when i say this made me laugh #joos yaps #delete later #dont harrass OP please. i cropped out their username for a reason #and in the grand scheme of things. one annoying fan using ai to try and gain some clout isnt worth getting upset about #however this has been living in my head since this morning

y'all this post is untagged ai. a lot of people aren't realizing it, but if you take a second to look at it, it becomes very clear

tumblr keeps showing it to me and OP has refused to tag it, so when you go in the reblogs it's a bunch of people who don't seem to realize that it's ai either. i recognized a lot of usernames in the reblogs, from people who i definitely know are against ai stuff. so if you've reblogged this thinking a human made it because OP refuses to edit the original post for transparency— now you know.

Here's a painting I made for the ImagineFX art challenge "Mystical Meets Machines".

The theme was too intriguing to pass by - especially after I got the idea of some unicorns grazing by the remnants of an ancient, mechanical dragon. Someone in the past were keen on acquiring the great powers of a dragon for themselves, leading to a bitter end. Now it has rested peacefully for centuries, becoming part of the landscape.

Lots of fun painting this one, especially all that moss!

Photoshop, April 2024. And as always, no AI used.

i appreciate the attempts a lot of game devs are making with gender neutral character creation, and i appreciate that it's actually a very difficult task to implement that depending on the game's base code. but it's so funny to me when you hear an uproar because some game has "entirely removed the gender option from character creation!!!!!" so you go to check it out and its just like

I’m going a bit crazy today m

[ID: a digital illustration of Laios from Dungeon Meshi/Delicious in Dungeon. The composition frames him inside a stomach with a red interior surrounded by black space. He is curled up inside it with his back down and his legs up in the air, feet up against the stomach wall. He has the Mad Sorcerer's spellbook held open close to his face, obscuring it. The image is rendered primarily in red and green tones aside from the spellbook and some highlights, which are pale blue. A screentone texture is applied to the illustration. In the top right, red text in all caps reads "dungeon meshi", with most of the 'm' being obscured by Laios's foot. End ID] Id credit to : @dracudyke

ok. years have passed and we've had some distance, so i'm finally gonna take the leap of faith that tma fandom is finally ready to hear me on this. let's talk about tannins.

161 was the first tma episode i heard on early release, and i felt the bit where martin declines wine and cites tannins was pretty obvious in its implications. cool, got it, say no more.

imagine my surprise when i was one of maybe three people i saw read between the lines there, in a fandom famous for red stringing--a fandom that immediately caught the much less obvious thread of ignition sources in the same episode. i'll spell it out: alcohol is an issue for martin.

maybe it just felt obvious because addiction is a pet issue for me--as it is for jonny, who has said everything he writes is filtered through a lens of addiction. i don't know if that's due to his own experience or a loved one's, and i won't speculate; i also don't know if martin personally struggled with drinking or just avoids it for fear he would, but alcohol would fit what we know of his family. his dad walking out and his mum spiralling into bitter wallowing and verbal abuse? i'd bet one or both of them drank, yeah.

on a basic level martin tries to decline alcohol, and that alone should have raised eyebrows given what we know of martin and, again, a fandom that dissects everything. we already knew martin "K" blackwood lied about his personal life and his family in particular, especially pre-canon, which is when this flashback took place. i was shocked that everyone took his flimsy excuse at face value with no further questions.

and the excuse is flimsy. martin turns down wine by--nervously--exclaiming tannins are "a proven headache trigger!" which sounds like trivia from a magazine cover and not the words of someone who actually has headaches--and it hasn't come up before or since. jon, confused, points out that tea, a drink martin consumes to a degree that is memetic both in- and out-of-universe, also contains tannins, and martin squawks a panicked, "what?!"

if tannins are enough of a concern for martin that he knew they're in wine and so avoids it, why didn't he know they're in his drink of choice? why does he still drink tea at the time of canon, and why doesn't he struggle with constant headaches from consuming 'a proven headache trigger' day in and day out? why, indeed, would someone avoid wine and not tea?

when sasha insists martin drink he caves and agrees to 'just a drop'. i imagine him pouring it in a plant, which admittedly he could have done if tannins really were the issue. i will say that i, for one, would be less likely to falsely agree to something that makes me physically ill than to a private issue that i'd rather not be pressed on any further. this scene also establishes martin's birthday was an ice cream party instead of the more traditional visit to a pub.

also, this scene was in the first episode of the final season, as one of three flashbacks that could have been to any pre-canon event in the archives. prime narrative real estate. not really time one would waste on establishing the important character context that martin has... headaches. which never comes up before or after, even regarding the week he spent in spiral town. but you know what is pretty crucial character background...?

it felt like a no-brainer, and yet all i saw was h/c fluff about jon attending to martin's headaches. and i hate feeling bitter about disability representation. i want folks with chronic headaches to feel seen and have fluffy escapist fantasies. i don't want to be mad about people portraying a character with a disability. but, guys? you got the wrong disability. jonny sent a clear message, and it went over fandom's head.

#glad i haven't seen it on my dash but #4500 notes OTL #oof #tma #ai art #EDIT ok i went to the og post cause u know. benefit of the doubt and all that #(also its on top of the tma tag with 5000 notes now so not like its going out of my way to find something small) #and yea its definitely ai. OP keeps vaguely defending ai art in the notes without saying whether they used it or not #and going on their blog; they were posting about tma all the way back in 2021 but only now (that ai art is a possibility) #are they sharing their lovely work with the world 😑 #but why im saying this is cause #op posted new images of tma characters since this post. but for some reason (to beat the allegations?) edited in #some 50% translucency middle school eye drawings into the background. lmao. #i get that the idea your art will be scrutinized for signs of ai is demoralizing to (new) artists #but frankly. posts getting 5000 notes for just running a pic of some actor through midjourney is a lot more demoralising imho
