@davidrevoy This is so good I can't think of what to say.

I love the new style, it's beautiful, and I love the way the four panels ease into it as the story does.

@davidrevoy Oh, this is wonderful. Rage against the machine, the tin can that turns everything into an average of everything else.

Thanks, David. That's the spirit.

@davidrevoy I think I've figured something that might be the reason why some people feel like your art feel generated, it's the text bubbles. 

I know the text comes from SVGs since that's what you use for translations. I think this makes the text look a bit out of place, a bit too sharp. Siince GenAI uses separates layer like this to generate sensible text it can have this similar "out of place" look.

@davidrevoy I've seen your art before but once I realized the transition I was blown away 🤩

[sgued@pouet.chapril.org]

@davidrevoy It's a shame though that people just have a feeling, don't bother checking, and just go straight to commenting their feeling as fact

@davidrevoy @catsalad PSA: "glaze" and "nightshade" are two filter you can add on your drawings that are purposely made for poisoning ai trainig

@sgued It's likely also because @davidrevoy also has a large body of work freely available under a Creative Commons license, so a lot of AI has been trained on it.

@davidrevoy For some reason it reminds me of a Russian idiom "назло бабушке отморожу уши" (English analogy: "I'll cut off my nose to spite my face").

But drawing is still nice

[toerror@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@davidrevoy YES.

[nullthefool@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@davidrevoy That art transition OMG!!!

[aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@davidrevoy I've been a long time fan of your work, and I've always found your style and skill to be aspirational. I was shocked and disappointed to find out all too many people were confusing it for AI.

I love what is going on in panel 3 especially with the intense prismatic color and complex textural contrasts. If this is a statement about what is to come, I'm excited to see where you go with this. If not, fuck the tin can, I still love your work as much as always.

@davidrevoy y’know what, I went to a couple of exhibitions of German expressionists last week - Franz Marc and such - and this is sort of similar.

I love it!

@davidrevoy Is it ok if I prefer Panel 2 Cepper?

@davidrevoy This is great, I'm curious how art will change and develop coming years.

As many here, I always enjoyed your work and it was obvious from the go that they used it extensively for their models.

[minski@kinkycats.org]

@davidrevoy You may be the frontrunner of a new art style... AntiAIism...

[mrdk@mathstodon.xyz]

@davidrevoy Do you want to continue drawing your comics in this style? It won't be bad.

@davidrevoy no data is ugly, all is useful for training styles.
