I just found out it's OCD awareness month, and I struggle with OCD. I got a diagnosis around age 19 and I'm 29 now. If anyone wants to learn about OCD, ask away. Here's a test run cycle for my indie animation pilot project I've been working on :)

Replying to @LiquidHbox @theo
Artists, for the most part, would love to have an open conversation about non-exploitative, non-reductive AI usage. We want to see it REGULATED and strictly used as a support tool, not as a replacement artist or a make-the-art tool.

An ontological difference before an aesthetic one. YES. There is a difference between them in how they necessarily come into being or CAN EXIST, even before any visual, tangible, or social results. Art is by essence a realization of soul, even if the art is creative observation
In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

If you truly value the art, you have to defeat your gluttony for "content." Trust me, I'm a HXH fan lol. You want more DBZ? Go imagine it, daydream it, obsess over it, draw it, animate it, dress up as it and act it out. That's what love is. Here's a Gon rig I'm making in Blender.
Puede ser que esta opinión sea increíblemente polémica, pero sinceramente no me importaría si Toei Animation entrenara alguna inteligencia artificial para crear animaciones de Dragon Ball y la utilizara de manera oficial, siempre y cuando se cumplieran estos criterios: 1. Que debe lucir bastante bien. No voy a decir que parezca hecho por algún animador Super Top. Sin embargo, si se acerca para mí es suficiente, mientras se vea bien y se mueva bien no me importaría. 2. Que esto sirva para darnos más contenido de la franquicia. 3. Que no reemplace a los animadores oficiales de la serie. Que se use solamente para productos complementarios, que no reemplace nada, sino que se use en cosas adicionales que solamente serían posibles con ayuda de esta tecnología. (Entiéndase: animaciones que ellos no harían por falta de interés o falta de querer invertir en ellas, y que la única manera de que salgan sea mediante esta tecnología) Esto sería lo ideal para mí, pero sé que no lo van a hacer de esa manera así que mejor ni lo intenten.

I'm sorry, when did Death Battles get THIS good??? The animation is not only so clean but the effects are like...pretty innovative too. The sketchy line art overlay clash part is insanity
BY FAR THE BEST PART OF THE SHADOW VS MEWTWO DEATH BATTLE.

I want to say that 8 months is not a ton of time for one person to produce this level of quality alone. Which is to say that this is huge living evidence that indie animation rivalling big budget film productions is more possible than ever. And also, tear down the data centers.

The left one is better because it's more controlled and intentional! This expresses more emotion. The right one could work but only if it continued on into a different landing. The left could still offset the fingers and maybe snap a bit harder from A to B even to appeal more
2026 hand vs 2025 hand, I'm still not sure which one is better ;-;

Wanna clarify that I'm talking about readability here. The left hand is a simple change from pose A to pose B, and that fits better within the super short time frame. The right one, without any other context, is harder to visually track and therefore less intentional.

It's a shame to live in a world so touched by art every day yet so hostile to it. There's no defense for this sort of behavior, for these sorts of values in life. It's nihilistic. A tick is more meaningful and good than the people who do this. Defeated, callous people. Sorry 🫂
What the hell must I do? Artists just want a place online where platforms don't feed their work to AI. So I built Cara. But people just won't leave us alone. The laws don't help us, the governments don't help us. What are artists supposed to do exactly? 1/
