Some thoughts/plans for next month (+tasty wip)
🕑 Added 2023-03-24 09:59:58 +0000 UTCThis month is finally coming to an end. I still have like 5 more works to finish, but they have mostly been done, and i believe that I'll finish them within this month. I'm really interested in counting the final amount of work that i did, if counted correctly - there are like 13-15 of them. I hope this is the biggest amount in one month for... Ever.
But this month i also researched some essential things. Firstly, now i know that i was right when I thought that AI provides plenty of ways to use it to help artists, and not ruin them. On w.i.p. above you can see a background that was photo-bashed out of 7-8 different AI generations and then polished by myself. Ai is a wonderful tool to create a "base" to work with, and it's helping to save a lot of time to work on parts that i like to work on more.
For the next month, i want... I want to increase prices to my commissions, take less of them, and release time to make... Fanarts :3
But my biggest dream always was to make stuff for Youtube. I know how to edit videos and write essays, so i really want to try to make something. And i think making a tutorial on how to use AI as an artist is a good idea to try out.
Sadly i know, that a major part of artists right now are very against this technology, and i know that there are plenty of reasons why, but i don't see any need to stop AI progress. I think that artists need to tame it, learn it, and shape it for their own needs. Froud always was here and will be, but to think that AI is needed only for that is simply wrong and stupid.
The idea that it's good to punish artists who learning and using ai in their pipeline is simply awful, and i want to stand against it. But of course, I'm afraid. The furry community is very aggressive to this technology, and my FA page may be deleted because of that, and this is scary af, i don't have any backup except my Twitter page. So... Maybe I'll wait one more month and just stick to the fanarts for the next one because of that. But I'll at least record some footage in April :3
P.S. I'll make 1-2 posts within this month on Patreon with all finished commissions, so it's not the last post, but definitely the most important one!
