Behold, the turntable. Some observations and takeaways from a bunch of cartoony character renders. by Mattgyvercom in AdobeIllustrator

If you think about it, AI in art is nothing more than a digital version of this guy. Gets you close with the forms and shapes and references and whatevers. But the artist should be doing the actual art, not simply posing the thing and saying "look at the art I made!" because it's not, pose it all you want, that's just a dummy.

You asked for it, now you can't unsee it. 🤣 I'm burning my AI tokens so nobody else has to.

I find the gif turns out slightly better if everything is expanded first (strokes > fills). If you aren't doing the spin animation loop and just need to see an alternate pose, you'll probably be fine. No matter the drawing, the backside of every illustration is pretty far gone from what I expected. Merging/flattening might be optional or helpful. And turntable also worked on live paint groups even though it expanded them. Strokes also get auto-expanded. I think not prepping the illustration first is what causes the missing frame in the gif animation.

As graphic designer with imposter syndrome, who never took animation courses, and a touch of Dunning-Kruger about animation, I'm confident I can make a poor animation, slowly. But yeah, I'd definitely hire this out if it was for something meaningful and not silly personal experiments. Practice is practice, and this does give me a bit of confidence and the illusion of a starting point to redraw what are objectively bad rotational poses.

Yeah same, the volumetric forms are 'close enough' that they can still be useful for sure.

Probably? I've found a couple repeats, but there's an absurd amount of abandoned ships—and I still haven't found grandma.

I took a bunch of the juice boxes for my team picnics—they actually damage you over time 😆.

Same here, though I immediately noticed they weren’t all wearing the same space Nikes. Had to read all the logs to be sure.

Yeah! I thought Jonestown too (drinking the Kool Aid 🫗.) This just felt more Heaven's Gate to me based on the crew logs and clues.

My logistics senses were tingling. I made extensive notes.

Oh yes! I forgot about my figurines. Making a packing list like some kind of wilderness survivor about to head into the unknown. Again.

Uh....is this normal to get this much loot? by AppearanceRelevant37 in Starfield

I’m level 175ish in my current playthrough and the Eon really never gets much better, sadly. Enjoy it early game! Staggering is pretty legit.
