- Reposted by ShaunJust gonna say this again for games sphere cus we get the same question: Networking doesn't mean schmoozing up to famous people, it means making friends with your peers. Then in 10 years, 20, one of you might be famous? And sure you're still helping each other cus well yeah friends. Make. Friends.
- Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.
- One day I’ll make art of my idea for Legend of Zelda as a ballet…

- Also I guess I should mention I've been designing the looks for their live show sets! Fabrication teams varied for each location but they all did a great job making silly concept art look good in real life
- Oh I just realized I never mentioned that I designed the look of Critical Role's Campaign 4 set!
- Excited to be Art Director on this!
- Made a new friend recently 🥹
- Reposted by ShaunI really love this Vincent Van Gogh quote: "To do good work one must eat well, be well housed, have one's fling from time to time, smoke one's pipe, and drink one's coffee in peace." No romanticizing the starving artist. Van Gogh said UBI all the way.

- Reposted by Shaun"Bluesky is boring." Social media *should* be boring. Being algorithm and dopamine poisoned is bad, actually. When your feed dries up for the day, that's your cue to go do something else until new stuff shows up later.
