My gift to @wrenandthemachine for the Dawning gift exchange! She requested Cayde and her guardian Wren :)
Don't worry guys the Witness was just chopping up some ingredients for a nice soup, def nothing sinister or evil going on in that trailer
Why is it that the only spoiler I've seen for Lightfall are appreciation posts for Nimbus' ass
Nimbus knows the Last City doesn't have the same dazzling entertainment options as Neomuna does, but they're still ready to support the City's many bars and... uhhhh.... Guardian maid cafes?
(does the Vanguard know about this..?)
A mentor and his student

So has anyone else been catching this weird fish recently? It keeps promising fame and glory while eating all my bait :/
I want you all to know that I posted this, hopped on Destiny to do some fishing, and proceeded to catch two exotic fish in a row so I now consider this post good luck

Here's a warning, since this has happened a few times already. If you're trying to follow me and you've got AI generated "art" as your profile, you're about to speedrun yourself into getting blocked.
You don't get to enjoy my art while using the exploitative tools that have stolen from so many creatives already.
To all my regulars though, I appreciate you guys :) sorry for the serious post, the regularly scheduled funnies will be back.
Well it's been chaotic recently but good news! I have escaped the app formerly known as Twitter and taken residency in Bluesky. If any of you are also there feel free to drop by so I can find you all again. I'm currently focused on reposting all of my old art, but I have a special new Saint piece coming soon ;)
Immaru really is just Like That huh
It's Saint-14 Day! I have no caption for this, it speaks for itself.
Hey guys, with the recent garbage that's happened at Bungie and everyone feeling so downtrodden (especially the fan creatives questioning their work) I wanted to offer a little piece of hope. I won't be posting this to Twitter, as that should rightfully stay focused on those who have lost their jobs.
So I've been around a while. I remember watching the Destiny 1 beta and deciding to try out the game in its first year, and I've been playing it consistently as a PvE and story enjoyer ever since. As much as I look back fondly at Destiny 1, the recent events with Destiny 2 have brought up some really shitty memories of Destiny 1s years.
The original Destiny was a mess. To keep it short, Destiny's original story was complete, but senior management scraped the story entirely. Expansions did ok at bringing their own stories in, but the narrative foundation of the game was held together with duct tape and dreams. There were many other issues with Bungie, Activision, and senior management that loomed over us, but what I want you to take away from all this is what made Destiny survive.
Destiny survived because it's community thrived. The big YouTubers and streamers that were all just little channels making passionate videos with their friends. The art showcasing the (still beautiful) skyboxes, worlds, and characters of Destiny 1. And the stories! The wonderful fanfictions that took what little Destiny 1s narrative offered and spun life into flat characters, making Destiny's world bigger and brighter. Friends were made, rivalries occurred, but it was because of the community that loved creating and interacting with each other that Destiny 1 survived and Destiny 2 grew into what it is.
I won't lie, these recent events are particularly awful, even when considering Destiny 1 and Activision's history. But if you're a creative who's lost the will to continue with this game we love(d), please take comfort in the friends you've made here, the strong community you're in. This community is a cockroach in the gaming world, we'll survive the disgraced downfall of the game and the company if we have to, and we'll do it together.
If you're stepping away completely, you are well within reason and I'd love to see your next passion take off. If you're staying with the Destiny community out of love, or because it brings in money, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Create for the people that are here with you right now, not for any board room of executives or company making profits.
Anyway, I love you all, take care of yourselves and stay hydrated. I cannot express in words how much I love this community, and how much it has meant to me to be here for so long. I will stay with you all until the end and beyond.

Does anyone know where I can buy a Crota raid ring? Bungie confirmed mine has been lost in transit, it's been missing for over a month and they can't get me a replacement either.
I'm sad about it :(( I've got the other raid rings and would really like this one too.
Hey gang sorry I haven't posted any art since September. Yeah I've been hand-carving 19 layers of cardboard into the shape of Black Talon. No I am not sane.
The progress on Black Talon is going strong, and much better than I hoped. My biggest fear was having the whole thing be too weak, especially since it's, yaknow, cardboard. Once I started gluing the layers down, it would be impossible to go back without ruining months of work.
I spent several days carving out the middle layer of corrugated cardboard and putting in as many popsicle sticks as I could fit, then adding two layers of paper to smooth it out. It was decently strong with the sticks, so I glued down 10 of the layers (5 on each side).
Let me tell you, this thing is THICC and CHONKY. Even without the handle she's already heavy enough to need two hands, and she certainly won't bend if I do a few whirlwind blade moves.
Next steps, finish and glue the last few layers, and start brainstorming how I'm going to shape the handle out of (you know it) more cardboard.

For the fellow destiny creatives and enjoyers who might want to do this
They are already selling data to midjourney, and it's very likely your work is already being used to train their models because you have to OPT OUT of this, not opt in. Very scummy of them to roll this out unannounced.
Bungie bringing back sunset weapons, as if I wasn't already using sunset weapons for fun. Bungo can't stop me by sunsetting my stuff (this is out of spite for them taking my toothbrush, artichoke, and charred celery out of my vault). Origin Story, Badlander, Zenobia my beloveds... I could never give up on my favourites just because they got sunset.
Honourable mention to my Red War Stompees that are so old they have the D1-style of upgrade system and I used them for years after they became obsolete.
Wha... what on earth is happening in Destiny's actual fireteam finders, how are these not filtered out?
