@davidrevoy This comic looks quite different to me than your others (also before I read your description). Less traditional cartoon-like and more painterly. Somehow even the facial features and expressions seem quite affected. Both styles are nice, but there’s a certain charm and expressiveness to this one here.
@runevision Thank you

@normjess 'screens on urinals showing ads' really feels like some cyberpunk dystopian stuff. Oh yes, late stage capitalism, I'm sure they'll show us how they can dig deeper and deeper to new 'innovations'.

Timelapse/Making-of video: https://www.peppercarrot.com/0_sources/miniFantasyTheater/making-of/038.mp4 It's not often that I paint directly from scratch with no sketch or line art, so I wanted to share this one. It's a risky technique, and I'm even eyeballing all the perspective, no grids here. I also avoid blending and smoothing, showing the brushstrokes on the canvas more clearly. I'm doing this to incorporate 'errors made naturally by humans', and I like it. It feels closer to the spontaneous style I like in my ballpoint pen sketches.
@davidrevoy nice, i love it.

@davidrevoy Thank you! That's awesome. Your talent is truly impressive.

@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org I know right, I've had to call so many people out on there 'creation' of there 'art' through simply generating it on a stupid prompt.
AI is not Art, AI is Slop.
Great Web Comic, Thank you. -
@davidrevoy BTW I would appreciate more misc. comics. Even in parodies AI gets tiring
@yuki2501 Yes! Same, bear with me a little bit more. For me too it starts to be redudent to focus on this series while MiniFantasyTheater should be broader and explore many situations.
The next one, episode 039 might be a conclusion to the mini series for now.
As you can see, I suggest the gothic sorceress already put her Avian Intelligence in the garbage on previous episode.

@davidrevoy I love this whole series
@sindarina
awww! Thank you! -
@yuki2501 @davidrevoy Don't get me wrong I enjoy Mini Fantasy Theater as well.
@stefan @yuki2501 About the trauma.
Yes... and No.It feels more and more to me that I'm beating here a dead horse with this theme.
Often my radar feel that when Firefox starts get code ready in prod for a technobro trend. I interpret that as if I was watching the last wagon of the AI trend train in tech... the last ripple of influence... and it might mean it's already dead somewhere. Just a personal intuition. -

@davidrevoy @matt I got a roll with QR codes somewhere. Of course they all lead to dead webpages / http404 / server not found etc. as all of those rolls except this one were flushed down the drain many moons ago and apparently nobody thinks long term anymore. This toilet paper roll turned into a parody of itself somehow...

@davidrevoy I have a couple of illustrators in my family (partner, nephew) and I'm always insisting in that, to my humble taste, the more artistic, expressive, interesting, poetic, etc., version of their draws, is that which they call drafts, sketches, etc. I understand the ideas of clean and polished, but for me the magic is mostly in that primitive or improvised phase, where the creative search is still an uncut gem, let's say... I guess, tastes. But for me, seems like live music, let's say.

@davidrevoy this is beautiful and fascinating to watch, like a dream coming into focus, the opposite way round to how I've been trying to draw
(is this video on your website?)

@davidrevoy I watched the video before reading your comment so I was already thinking along the lines of, "oh wow sketching with blobs of color, I wonder what the tradeoffs are vs line art".
Now I'm really curious how many different traditions of... for lack of vocabulary, "order of operations" for constructing a piece of art there are.I would guess a lot but I'm very ignorant in this area.

@davidrevoy I like that you can see the brushstrokes in the final image.

Just a personal intuition.@davidrevoy @stefan @yuki2501 my opinion of the AI(LLM) situation is that there has been irreversible damage done, the laws on copyright were intentionally circumvented and governments all star struk by tech-bros let them have a "copyright law doesn't apply to you, you must be free to steal to succeed" exception. It is not the technology that is a threat, it is the lawless application of it.
Genuine creativity itself is hugely devalued by the art theft.
