#OH MY LORRDY
This is my first proper commission, an illustration for a custom MTG proxy card. Made a lot of mistakes, stalled for a while, got jaded at the end, but overall I am happy with the result. I don't think I'd ever have painted the Machine on my own volition, so I'm glad I had this opportunity. Spent some time studying it's "anatomy" and all the details, it's cool to notice all the things that went into the initial design and the logic behind each part (like the fact that the Machine's been missing one of it's arm from the very beginning for some reason, or the fact that it's depiction on one of the official movie posters is incorrect in several ways).

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset
the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

your scent processing being so close to memory in your brain is insane sometimes you step outside and take a whiff and go "ah, it smells like playing pokemon emerald in my third grade afterschool program in the crisp september of 2006"
reasoning: I could type an essay here, but instead I'll just say this. At some point he calls the male protaginist a good boy and promises to give him a "treat" once he's done with the mission
