I am Glitch Daracova, the breachforged cyberdragon, an immortal god to which age has no meaning. Fear me and despair. If you're lost, consult my lore (hyperlink missing). My pronouns are Maj/Majs—short for 'majestic,' regal and divine, as in "Maj rules majs kingdom."

  • I'm not an artist. If I sketch something, and have an ai upscale it for me, is it still slop, vs just asking it to do everything?

  • After a couple days of thinking about it, I think it's still slop, because no matter how detailed my prompt is, it's still just using the direct output of the ai. What I could do that I think would be ok though is use the ai version as a reference to do my own shading and whatnot.

  • Climbed trees, rode without a helmet, and setup the home network without any documentation whatsoever. Been there, done that.

    It's not 2005 anymore. I have a job, a significant other, and other shit to do that's more important than documenting someone else's hobby.

  • RTFM is not a valid response if the manual contain no information on what the software is or even how to run it (or where to even find the manual, if the manual even exists). Is this a standalone program? A plugin for another program I'm already using? No links to any useful information whatsoever.

    Then the guy that sent me the original link tells me "oh yeah, all that info is on youtube". Nope, I'm done. I'll use something else.

  • What's your favorite OLD Youtube video?

  • Where does the drive to do anything come from?

  • Boredom, deadline induced adrenaline, and an unhealthy amount of alcohol. If I'm lucky, the project will fall under my current hyperfixation, and that will make it easier.

    I don't recommend my strat.

  • I just assume that everything I've ever done is already in the ai anyway. Chatgpt could probably summarize my book and I haven't even wrote it yet (it's very good at turning my drunk ramblings into coherent notes for me to review when sober. Drunk me also has no willpower to resist easy dopamine.)

  • I was drunk and lazy, and my hand hurt because it's been years since I've done much drawing. Honestly, I'm liking the ai version less the more I see it. It looked great when I was drunk though.

  • I was drunk and drunk me was getting depressed. Sober me likes my art a lot more. It felt good to make, and all this external validation is helping me stay motivated to keep getting better.

  • Deleted my other response to you because I was drunk and it was embarrassing. Lots of very good comments here (including yours) telling me exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you.

  • That's the kind of thing that I needed to hear. It's not what I wanted when I posted, but you're right. Also, the more I look at the ai version, the less I like it. It looked great when I was drunk last night though.

  • The more I look at the ai version, the less I like it. It looked great when I was drunk last night. Also all this external validation is really helping my mental state. I'll probably be using ai less because of this.

  • Making the sketch felt nice, and I'm enjoying being able to show it to people and say I did art. I keep rereading this thread, and all this validation is going to help me keep going.

  • All good points and thanks for the validation, its going to help me not get discouraged.

    If I ever do actually write the book, what communities should I advertise in?

  • ai also really fucked up the hands. The more I look at it the worse it gets. It looked great while I was drunk though.

  • It should be stylized as Glitch-DX but I've gotten lazy in recent years.
