Stupid AI Artwork Thread
Posted: Sun Sep 14, 2025 3:04 pm
Yes, this is yet another controversial AI thread.
Because of some trend with Nano Banana on Google Gemini going on people are making virtual figurines with it. So on a whim I decided to pull out a piece of artwork I made 20 years ago (or more, holy crap).
Yeah, I know its not on the website, but it is used in the campaign. It definitely shows its age.
So I went and asked for a reimagined look for her while changing some of the details to be more... well, realistically consistent with what I know now. The thing is, obviously, the AI was not good at doing what I wanted, so I used my Photoshop skills to combine more than one thing into that. So yeah, it is not perfect and people saying you can make it spit out anything instantly, yeah, you're wrong, you still have to fix it.
And that's the result. It does turn out pretty good once you get it going. Kind of lamentable that it isn't real, though, but I guess we have our memories.
But that's not to say that's all I did with this.
Yeah, I went there. And I still had to photoshop it.
So it's AI, it's there. It sort of works except when it doesn't.
