@davidrevoy I love it!

@davidrevoy for what it worth, your panels with Cepper and the Avian Intelligence are the best representation of my feelings, although on a different field. The fact these systems, with their capabilities of generating enormous amounts of slop, basically rob us of what took years to refine.

And this is how I often feel.

Robbed.

That's very cool

@davidrevoy

after photography was invented, so was abstract painting and a whole bunch of styles (fauvisme, cubisme, expressionisme) that strayed from the painstaking 'realism' of the time

@davidrevoy
I like how it breaks the fourth wall

[niklaskorz@rheinneckar.social]

@Sassinake @davidrevoy I had the exact same thought! For all the things generative images have taken from us, this comic made me hopeful we'll at least see new creative directions in return.

@davidrevoy très sympa l'évolution des panels en meme temps que l'histoire! J'adore!

@davidrevoy I love how in the timelapse it's clear that you started out by drawing everything clean and refined and then you layered sketchiness and roughness on top of it, making it super duper *absolutely* deliberate.

@davidrevoy Great Comic. I love the art style transitions.

[davidrevoy@framapiaf.org]

@VANTABlack2000 Thank you!

[szakib@freeradical.zone]

@davidrevoy High art! ️

[davidrevoy@framapiaf.org]

@fluffy Thank you! Yes, I had no idea how to degrade it properly, even if it was on my scenario. For the line-art, no problem; thicker and angular shapes, that was easy; but for the shading, I had no idea how to reach what I had in mind, so I simply shaded it the usual way, and thanks to the Gmic "degrade" filters and more layer of brush strokes on the top, I could get this result.

@smoi Merci du retour! J'étais préoccupé avant de le poster que le concept se comprenne mal; je suis très content de voir que ça fonctionne!

@davidrevoy I think human art can be imitated, reproduced but what makes it authentic and special is the momentum, the feeling we live when we make art, leading to an authentic creation. An AI will never do it in that way, even if one day it could have a conscience... always different from our way of being.
