Forced Workflow Overhaul

April 21, 2023

Adapt or die, that’s the nature of the AI beast.

Found out yesterday that the way I’ve been creating AI images just went obsolete. So I spent all night finding a solution which allows me to keep exploring and using the exact same styles of AI art in my images as before, with minimal changes to the workflow itself.

Unfortunately the monthly costs nearly doubled because of this, but what can you do?

If you want to have maximum control on the output, especially if you do high-quality NSFW stuff, then you really have to stay up to date on what’s going on in the AI world.

I guess I also learned that it’s important to always be aware of some other suitable platforms / workflow solutions since the AI industry grows, evolves & changes so fast that your specific way of working with AI might simply disappear overnight.

Hi Wino. I genuinely am awed by your art. Sure, your process is evolving and refining but I honestly love all of it including your SFW art.
To be honest, I’m not yet able to articulate clearly how I feel about it. It is such a revelation to me that I’m still processing the impact.
What else can I say, I’m just one person… but I believe that your artistic endeavours are very worthwhile. Such a cliche but please keep up the **great** work! Thank you. Jon.

  Hi Jon,
  
  So glad to hear you like my work! (Have to update the galleries on this site and include more SFW stuff as well… actually the whole site is the usual “under construction” work in progress lol)
  
  Yeah one reason I find AI image generation so fresh and cool is that one is certainly learning and evolving every single day – just like the AI tech itself.
  
  Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it. At least for now, I’ve completely stopped doing digital illustrations and 3D sculpting & I’m focusing only on AI stuff, although it still involves manual painting with Photoshop with my Wacom Cintiq etc.
  
  I’m really trying hard to learn how to more and more incorporate my own personal style as a designer with the AI images, regardless of which model I use. But as it’s partly pure self-studying, where you sometimes have to just do “exercises” in order to learn and move forward… there’s a balance between practising / focusing on making a totally unique & polished artwork.
  
  Take care and see you around!
