>>58648879Trust me, I know how the AI burnout feels. It can take days to wrangle Copilot fot work. It's a useful tool, but that doesn't make it any less of a pain to try and fix when it starts doing weird stuff. I was iffy on paying for NAI as well, but my PC is in dire need of replacement and NovelAI seems to be one of the best generators out there so it was pretty much my only option. Also, very cute expression on that gen! You already know, but I'm a sucker for nice shades of turquoise like those eyes
>the stress of feeling so... unable to pull off what you want to pull off kinda sucksYeah, that certainly doesn't help either. I'm hoping that AI will become a tool that helps artists find new ways to improve like I've seen it do for me with programming. Stuff like offering critique, providing references or things to practice on, that sort of deal where it helps you understand it better rather than doing the work for you. Either way, I hope you keep drawing and keep loving it! I know what it's like to be passionate about something you love, so if you can harness that drive I know you can get to a place you're satisfied with eventually.
Okay maybe satisfied is the wrong word, I've heard that art is a terrible hobby to get into if you want satisfaction. But you can definitely keep improving! And when you do improve, I think it's important to be able to recognize that and acknowledge it to keep that passion alive. There's always more to learn after all.
And thank you, I hope I can find something like that too someday. Think I've gotta get other parts of my life in order first though. First goal is making enough time for some Kirby of my own this weekend.
Always did think that spider simp was kinda cute>>58648913>>58648928I didn't notice those at all! Wouldn't have found a lot of cool stuff like that if not for these threads. One recent thing I found was that the Eevee here can get stuck in the water like a dummy
