Re: Creativity Hour works thread

Wow, it's Sunday already. I have two things to talk about today, but I'll just start with this... I did a favor for my landlord. There is the classic white picket fence gate at the house. Unfortunately, it's oh so very old and rotten. It's essentially a sponge held together by a coat of paint. I off...

Re: Lump

Still working on getting a version of Leela through a couple different AI programs. Kinda getting closer. Guess I need a better description, but these failures are pretty fun. The AI version: Leela 9.jpg My go: Attempted Leela V5 - 100.jpg (Details on my sketch. About three hours. 8 1/2 x 11" 3...

Re: DALL-E Mini

Well then... Another use for AI. Usually whenever somebody favs one of my drawings I'll thank them. What if instead a simple written "Thanks" they get one of these? Thanks for the fav!.jpg Thanks for fav'n my sketch!.jpg Thanks for adding one of my drawings to your favs!.jpg They may look ...

Re: Lump

I looked at the AI dedicated page. The Steampunk Leprechaun is simply hilarious! But this bit does involve a few drawings. I'm still trying to get Bing AI, as well as DA "Dream-up" AI do a reasonable version of Leela. So far they've both flopped, big time. (Ironically enough Bing does know...

Re: Lump

Brace yourselves, more AI stuff... Our favorite PES captain. I used the same description for each image and recieved a lot of versions! Some good, some horrible. Leela 1.jpg Leela 2.jpg Leela 3.jpg Leela 4.jpg Leela 5.jpg Bing doesn't seem to understand the term "cyclops". Apparently, ther...

Re: Lump

(This is an issue with the AI original, not with you, but the centaur's front hoof freaks me out. I mean, the shoe is beautiful, but...) Oh! Noticed the Cinderella slipper also? I thought it was kinda fun detail. Another problem is what to title this drawing. So far, it's been a working title, gott...

Re: Lump

Happy New Year, everybody! ('Bout time I posted something here, been slacking...) Subject of the day is AI. Like it or not Ai generated drawings are here and show no sign of leaving. Hate to say this but I've used 'em a couple times. But me being me, in an unexpected way. Instead of using them as a ...

Re: Lump

I used to think YouTube was a wasteland, but lately there have been several good shows there. Easy examples are "Murder Drones' or "Helluva Boss". And this gem! "The Digital Circus"! Only one episode so far and I have no real idea what's going on. But it rocks! Pomni 2 - 100...

Re: Lump

There is a bit of a "real world" story in the aftermath of this drawing. More on that in a second. From the book "Sazan and Comet Girl", Mina AKA the Comet Girl. Almost everybody considers her the "Harbinger of disaster". I liked this book. Light-hearted romp through th...

Re: Lump

Circle study Pt 2 I’m sure everybody has recognized the potential shape from drawing number 6. Let me run with that… Circle Study 2 - 100.jpg Number 7: I’ve divided the head into quarters. Also added an indent, that indent creates a forehead, eye sockets, and an upper cheekbone. Number 8: Another ax...

Re: Lump

Anybody want a quick drawing lesson? Particularly how to draw a circle only with a straightedge/ruler and a pencil? No templates or “insert-circle-here” tabs. Hopefully along the way I’ll fry a couple of brains. Quick note usually I draw the layout lines super faint, I can see them, but my scanner c...

Re: Creativity Hour works thread

One of THOSE jobs wiggled its way through the shop. I never thought this sign would ever be built. It's been at least three years in the planning. A little history: About three years ago the sign company I worked for built a donor wall (it's on the far right of the bottom photo) and in theory there ...

Re: Lump

Remember a couple months ago I submitted a drawing for a museum show? Finally have an answer. Am I in or am I out? Do I break out the champaggen or drown my sorrows? Well… I have the dreaded “Thanks but no thanks” reply. I’m out. I’m still processing this event, not really quite sure what to think o...
