I find the new stuff is better in a technical sense. But Erol Otus had more 'emotional punch' in his rougher sketches than any tRPG artist before or after him. His work tends to feel full of drama, action, motion, etc. The only appeal I ever felt for Elmore was when I was a teenager he drew...

I find that even with this many LorA are over trained with unrelated elements so mismatches seep in all too often. They can hyperfocus on one thing you described and remove all other elements, then force that one thing in a certain direction. Even when I do describe all of the other things...

A bit of both I think. Especially when it comes to local installs of AI art tools. Bing and ChatGPT have had people put in content filters to moderate what they deliver and to ensure results. When you do this stuff locally and go out there to grab training files - the top sites hosting them...

Imagine defeating an AI enemy that you can't reason with because it actually isn't smart. And that you can't scare into 'stepping back from the brink' because it isn't trying to survive - it's just trying to make more paperclips. Or worse - you wanted an army so it's making one, and you happen...

I don't think they're using AI Art in that are they? But one side impact of all these new training models is a lot of actual artists are now getting accused of doing Ai Art by the 'anti AI' folks. The training models are just using existing styles, and they happen upon your style, suddenly...

Future-theory geeks often speculate on what an AI takeover might actually be like and I think the two leading contenders are NOTHING like action genre Sci-Fi. The top theory is the 'paper clip AI' - an AI that can make nanites is given a very simple task: use available materials to make...

For my own characters I'll often end up making almost 100 images, and running them back and forth between the AI and Gimp. Last night I put a lot of my own characters through img2img with hi dream and the results were mixed. But I see potential. I was on Automatic1111 a day ago, and am now...

I had to pile on a stack of old LorA's to get to here, along with prompt changes: "A vibrant African fantasy style RPG illustration of a short black African woman with dark brown-skin as a short fantasy dwarf woman with a stocky build, age 29, in a fullbody shot. She wears platemail armor...

I started messing with HiDream last night. So far I have been unable to make anything non-caucasian. That was a general problem in all AI Art about 2-3 years ago. I haven't yet tried to load it up with ethnicity and skin tone loras that predate it by a few years, but that's what I'm going to...

What was your prompt, models, and setting for this one? Looks like you've landed on a much better set of models and loras that I had.

I think so: Microsoft Designer - Stunning designs in a flash - You get 15 uses a month. So be careful. I ran all of them out last month in about 5 minutes just trying to get started with figuring out the menus... which you can't even see until after you've burned one charge to get 'in' - and...

So yesterday I wanted to make a pic for a token for an upcoming one-shot. I fed the same prompt into ChatGPT, Microsoft Designer, and a local copy of Stable Diffusion using the 'DynaVision XL' SDXL model checkpoint (essentially the base training model). Got three extremely different results...

The Sims. GM: OK Pancake, what do you do next? Pancake: I go to make breakfast. GM: Roll an impulse check. Pancake: Uh... 3. GM: You head towards the stove, then point your finger in the air, run outside, go around the block, come back, pick up your toddler, carry him outside and set him down...

Given that, what is even the point of all these licenses? What are we passing around in them? Selective opened up lore? I vaguely remember the old d20/ OGL having a clause against character attribute selection / creation mechanics - but it seems like such a clause, if my memory is right, is...
