AI picture experimentation 2
🕑 Added 2023-02-10 11:38:41 +0000 UTCBeen trying to get back into writing. It has not been going well. This headcold refuses to die, but I have managed 1k words the past couple days. Hopefully today I can hit my usual goal of 2.5k and things can get back to normal.
In the mean time, I've been trying to see how viable an idea it is to use AI art to actually help this Patreon. It's an extremely finicky tool that takes dozens of hours just to figure out the basics, but I like a project.
DON'T LOOK AT THE HANDS! 😅
So here's me taking a stab at Fiona. I managed to get the soft, busty little ginger girl look, but I can't seem to give her freckles. The DreamShaper model doesn't seem to like freckles.
Also here's a stab at Isabella Leauvion, bitch supreme. Doesn't look quite as hard and mean as I wanted. She's supposed to have a really sharp chin but the AI fights me on it.
Here's Jack, but I couldn't get the hair short enough without it basically going bald. I also couldn't enhance the image for a better resolution because it threw away a lot of the expression in the eyes. Also, eyes are supposed to be green, not blue. Changing eye color is so problematic, I'm gonna look for a second app to specifically do that.
Here's Natasha. Same issue as with Jack, enhancing it for a better resolution threw away a lot of the expressiveness. Also the AI tool gave her purplish eyes for some reason. They should be dark brown.
And finally a couple stabs at Elaine. The DreamShaper model is all too excited to draw a blond in a corset. Took zero effort at all. I don't think I quite captured her intelligent, manipulative gaze though, and she looks a little too young in the second pic.

These were all made by Mage.Space fyi.
Things to work on: getting some sort of consistency. I'd prefer if the art I created/grew-in-a-lab-in-a-tube-like-some-sort-of-cursed-dragon-experiment had a consistent style between the works.
I'm super excited to use the tool on lots of things. 'Cause as much as everyone wants character art, the tool is actually really, really good at other stuff, especially environmental.

Hey, wow, I might just do that, for important pieces or something. Ideally I won't have to, because sometimes I'll do a dump of maybe 50 pictures 😅

These look great. I do a lot or color shifts (like eyes) for my own stuff, so if you're still looking for something like that, get in touch with me. I'll be happy to help.

AI learning is scary powerful stuff. Still can't do hands, though. 😅

It's wild how far AI art has come in a short time. I did some AI projects in college (around 2009), and one of my colleagues built an art generator. All it could manage was abstract splashes of color, nothing even close to being able to generate portraits. That was Ph.D. material at the time.
