All in on AI Art?!? (Showcase)

So for some its no secret, but I've been messing around with AI art as of the past few years! Without going TOO much into it, I see it as a tool to use and enhance - essentially a notch in the toolbelt! I've tried a couple of sites, but I didn't like the censorship aspect, so I ended up installing Stable Diffusion (Automatic 1111 to be a bit more precise) locally and started from there. It took a bit of work to understand - which I STILL don't get a lot of it btw - but I made some stuff that I am happy with. You may have seen some of it used in my Thumbnails - which saves a TON of time, especially on the Strip Club mix covers! I've generated around 1000 (give or take) pieces of art and I wanted to take the time to share some with you here: Here's some from when I started:

As you can see, a lot of these are a bit rough around the edges - especially with the hands and faces. Case in point, below!

But I also had some that were better! And I also started learning how to base the poses off of pictures directly (kinda).

Picture taken by me!

Also Learned how to make a few backgrounds and other elements that may look familar if you look on my channel!

And I even started getting a few friends faces - with permission of course!

Blasia as Jade!

MsPlaced as a Smite character!

I've even worked on a few..."Spicier" ones - but we'll have that one for another time (perhaps)!

So what do ya think? I know there's some art "purist" out there probably gnawing on their pencils or wanting to throw their tablets, and yes, I do understand some of the dangers, but this does NOT mean I don't support traditional and Digital artists. On the contrary, I STILL support them! Like I said - this is simply another tool in the toolkit! If you want to see more, let me know! I can give you more here, on my Graphics tab (I have a section for my AI art), or on my DeviantArt Page I'm building up! Until Next time... Peace and God Bless!
