I like the 2.5D style! I wanted to get going on generating darker skin, so I used a stolen prompt to get started. First two, not right. Tweaked numbers, added and subtracted adjectives and descriptors, put in a few parentheses with decimal numbers in and it started to get what I was looking for. Going to keep working at it. Chasing @shabinedreams! Her stuff is awesome! She's finishing up in Photoshop, too. That's why I say that the real way to use AI is as a means of doing the heavy lifting in concept and layout, then use your skills to polish the artwork. AI won't do this by itself. Although, just give Adobe time. I'm pretty sure they got stuff finta drop that will blow minds and wallets.Arvoguard4
Remix onceMore experiments to put up. Fierceness is easy for AI to convey. It's easy to draw traditionally as well. I used to draw a lot of angry looking characters back in the day. I like the consistency of facial features here. The background was a great surprise! So clean looking! I also like that an overtune on one of the numbers generated a Mini Me!Arvoguard7
Remix onceI was a professional caricature artist up until 2015, and I have been trying to make the transition to digital ever since. I was doing ok with the screens and Clip Studio , and I have done stuff on the iPad Pro. Never was able to get the good lines like I did with the old Markette markers. CSP got close, but I burnt out after my amputation and I haven't drawn seriously since 2021. Now AI has comein, and I am really liking what I see in terms of it BEING A TOOL... If I can put a picture thru and it generate the render like these experiments, then I may have a way to earn a few bucks. Mind you, I am all about doing the heavy lifting in AI, but finishing up with stylistic embellishment in CSP or Fresco. Will I copy someone else's style? C'mon, guys! If you have ever worked at Kamen's or with the Fazens, or any good amusement park, you learned how to draw in someone else's style! Only after a decade or so did you get the muscle memory to stand out to other artists. Avg customer doesn't care about style. Just PRICE and SPEED. With AI, though, the damage is done. It's got EVERYBODY's STYLE, including mine, off in there, because my work is all on Instagram and other sites. Again, now that I have been sick, burnt out and crazy ADHD, I'm glad to let AI do the heavy lifting for me. Once I see what I can modify, I can get to work that much faster. Otherwise, I have a heckuva time with art block. Brain Fog just renders me useless. I like the Gotcha Lora! It's the closest to BOTH Tom Richmond and Gary and Steve Fasen. Then add a 3D render lora or a Pixar Lora, and you got a decent caricature! I just have to make sure that it translates well to img2img. Oh yeah! Set Gotcha to 0.35-0.4 or as the creator says, "CRAP WILL HAPPEN!"Arvoguard84
Remix onceMore experiments.... getting a feel for the numbers. I have ADHD so this can go slow until I find what I wanna be as my style and make it work. Believe me, in order to stand out, I will have to make it complicated. But I really do appreciate the phenomenal work that the lora-makers and the checkpoint-creators do! I'll have to do some as well, because there just isn't enough SFW(Safe for Witnesses) artwork out there, and my focus will be mostly modest concepts and paradise scenes/ Although I ain't gonna lie to y'all, I'd be drawing females all day if I could get away with it! Life can't be all cleavage and cracks, though, so I will have to do my part to generate the benign stuff.Arvoguard112
More firsts... getting the hang of the workings. Tryna go for more of the niji style, doe.. Arvoguard14
