My story:
i fell down the rabbit hole of *generating ai art* for a while, i made all kinds of excuses. But to keep the story simple it became a really bad habit, ive been drawing cartoons since i was 14 , im 26 now and i was throwing it away for what, convenience? I guess i got lazy, it was addictive? I ended up editing half of the generations anyway! So why not just put the dumb generator away and bring my hobby back.
Look im no Picasso, i struggle with anatomy. Although i admit, the poor anatomy was Deliberate to add to the point, and i have alot of characters i have made over the years but no art to show, The black cat is my main Sona named Raven i have had him for years. And the weird bird is Stevie, i drew mim many many years ago as a silly character.
So here it is, me confessing i used to make generated images. Ive Deleted all of them too all of the *art* is gone and im replacing it with my own , my art isnt perfect but it has Passion and effort.
Thanks for listening! Hope you enjoy, as for my Poor anatomy, ill get there one day!
Now that the reddit description is over, im posting it here to say im still actively doodling i just needed inspiration.
As always i am TERRIBLE at tagging so please feel free to add tags
Adding: i want nothing to do with ai *artists* , genuinely i have done enough harm just doing personal images. And ill say it i am tired of seeing it. My art is terrible and im still brave enough to put some actual effort in.
