Wouldn’t have taken me 28 tries to draw exactly that,
but I got no access to a scanner and
a smartphone photograph never has the right lighting/angle.
No, it definitely was not the easier way for me at all.
But I learned alot about ChapGPT, so that’s a plus.
With ChatGPT I needed more than 24 hours for a result that is arguably worse.
If I had drawn this by hand:
About 2 - 3 hours of drawing and colouring, depending on the materials used.
This image is not even finshed yet, as I will refine it more.
The dynamic is off.
No legs what so ever.
Probably not going to change that,
because that would probably the picture again.
The background is bleak and unispired.
All of this a human painter can do much better & quicker.
I could go on with how the AI “Art” is overall not as good as human paintings
and needs much more work in the form of precise structuring of the picture in the commands, quality control and step-by-step correction.
A human painter has, in essence, the picture already in his head and just bring it to paper.
It’s a good example as to why the assumption that ChatGPT is the “easy way” is just wrong.
I did all of this as an experiment and for fun ad I learned quite abit,
but it quickly also showed me the limitations of so-called “AI”.
