40-60 min studies of bloodborne concept art
bloodborne is something very dear to me, one of the reasons for that is the atmosphere and the way that atmosphere is cultivated.
i’ve been doing these studies for the last few days and focusing on what makes bloodborne concept art what it is. the abundance of details, black linework, strong shadows (a LOT of those), muddy colours, sharpness present even in far away objects that gives the eye nowhere to rest on - everything creates such an overwhelming feeling that reminds me of food poisoning, but somehow, Somehow an appealing kind. and i’m only talking about the technique.
i’m in love
Update (Also Twitter)
So I had a few copies of YOU left over from the last print run, and I dropped them all off at local comic shops today. I’ll probably print another round soon(ish), but I’ll make sure to update the About the Author page (I’ve moved, also I almost never use this Tumblr anymore, haha).
I’m much more active on Twitter these days, and I’m currently working on a new comic called TREES (probably gonna be 100 pages or so) which I plan on posting as I finish (currently building up a backlog so I can maintain a weekly schedule once I start). You can read YOU in full and the preview for TREES over hyah: https://antlionstudios.tumblr.com.
But yeah. Follow my Twitter, check your local comic shops if you live in the Frederick area, stay tuned.
Only 7 days left until HIVESWAP: ACT 1 is available on Steam!
Thank you, @ginilla!
´v` yay for countdown art! Just one week aaaahhhh!!!
nobody was buying my normal dude act anyway
heres an ancient comic i drew (before the url change lmao) that i remembered today
i had to google it
there’s a guy in one of my classes who i am secretly battling for dominance over by wearing awful hipster outfits. i dont know if he is thinking the same thing but regardless i am intent on winning
i thought i won today when i walked into class wearing my awful pop art t-shirt of 1995 figure skating champions, mom jeans, and 1980 moscow olympics-theme denim jacket but then he had to walk in wearing a donald duck jacket with matching donald duck socks like what a fucking power move

Reminder! Twitter!
Haven’t used this Tumblr in bloody ages, been way more active on Twitter @antlionstudios. Been going thru a bit of an art slump (also just moved), but things are starting to pick up again, so stay tuned!
(Also, my short comic YOU can be read in its entirety at antlionstudios.tumblr.com along with the preview for my current project TREES.)

Pokemon generated by neural network
I’ve been playing around with char-rnn, an open-source torch add-on for character-based neural networks by Andrej Karpathy, using it to generate everything from cookbook recipes to superhero names to a Lovecraft/cookbook mashup.
I decided to train the neural network to randomly generate Pokemon names and abilities based on this list as a training set - and found that it was good at generating Pokemon. Annoyingly good at it - by the time it had gone through the training set 50 times, it was already fluently plagiarizing Pokemon word for word. I had to go back to my very first snapshot of the neural network (16 times through the training set), at which point it hadn’t yet learned the entire set of names and abilities, and was still coming up with hilarious new ones.
Some sample Pokemon:
Quincelax Abilities: Sturdy, Secene Grace Hidden ability: Tunged Leus
Tortabool Ability: Healy Stream
Strangy Abilities: Wharmwbra, Darp Hidden ability: Magic Guard
Staroptor Ability: Stench Hidden Ability: Stick Hat
Stangute Ability: Banger Hidden Ability: Drang
Tyrnakine Ability: Beak Eye
Minma Abilities: Buttery armor, Shell Armor Hidden ability: Weak armor
Ronch Abilities: None
Mawuh Ability: Rum Power
I love a good neural network list but these illustrations… I’m trying not to scream laughing.
