There’s a protest going on against AI art over on artstation, so I feel like now is the time for me to make a statement on this issue!
I wholeheartedly support the ongoing protest against AI art. Why? Because my artwork is included in the datasets used to train these image generators without my consent. I get zero compensation for the use of my art, even though these image generators cost money to use, and are a commercial product.
Musicians are not being treated the same way. Stability has a music generator that only uses royalty free music in their dataset. Their words: “Because diffusion models are prone to memorization and overfitting, releasing a model trained on copyrighted data could potentially result in legal issues.” Why is the work of visual artists being treated differently?
Many have compared image generators to human artists seeking out inspiration. Those two are not the same. My art is literally being fed into these generators through the datasets, and spat back out of a program that has no inherent sense of what is respectful to artists. As long as my art is literally integrated into the system used to create the images, it is commercial use of my art without my consent.
Until there is an ethically sourced database that compensates artists for the use of their images, I am against AI art. I also think platforms should do everything they can to prevent scraping of their content for these databases.
Artists, speak out against this predatory practice! Our art should not be exploited without our consent, and we deserve to be compensated when our art is exploited for commercial use.
Doodled a fairy Hyrule today
Yet another drawing of my beautiful star child. I wanted to draw my rwby oc as a huntress of vacuo, Im pretty happy with the result. I included the wip because I wanted to draw her gun in the picture but.........well..... I cant draw guns.
New icon!
Also, I've been gone for a while, sorry life happened. I've got a whole lot of backlog to post and some things planned for the future.
Life is still messy so I'm gonna be spacing things out. For now my askbox is open for requests, and commissions are closed because my laptop is in multiple peices.
ALSO I SOMEHOW GOT 100 FOLLOWERS WHILE I WASN'T LOOKING????
Thank you so much for your support! >-<
A commission piece for my friend Ru Coal from the RWBY OC amino community of their OC Amber Heath, and some sketches of her weapon. They were really awesome to work with, and for one of my first commissions, they were really patient with me not having any clue what I was doing.
Gift for Juli on the LU adventures discord for a fall gift exchange! Hope you like it!
First three are friends characters. Last ones are mine.
the other day I was playing Pokémon sword, and I noticed that alcremie has a bow on her back. It made me think that she looked like she was in a little wedding dress, so I drew this!
And because I no impulse control I made all 70 versions.
Day 11. Prompt wasn't working for me, drew this instead.
Also four swords adventures has deku scrubs, the helmarock king, river zoras, windwaker style effects, link to the past style play, mentions of the twilight mirror, and phantom ganon. At this point I have just decided that it doesn't count in the timeline, and Four's adventures entirely take place at around the same time as minish cap/og four swords.
I always forget how hard the Zelda timeline is to coherently tie together in logical ways within the terms of the Zelda universe itself. Like, Four Swords for example. It takes place after the events of Skyward Sword and after the Chaos Era, but before Ocarina of Time and the timeline split. Okay, makes sense in terms of the in-universe history. You can tie that in and work out some of the kinks. But like, Four Swords Adventure, being placed AFTER Ocarina of time in the Child Timeline AFTER the Era of Twilight? ???? And Ganon is in it and mentioned??
You mean to tell me that TWO Link’s both pulled the Four Sword, just one taking place near the beginning of the timeline and the other taking place near the end(ish) of the timeline?
I can suspend my disbelief with a lot of things in regards to Zelda. It’s a fun game series and the games stories were never meant to be tied together. Tying them together is fun, finding ways to make the “connected” story work.
But sometimes trying to connect all the stories leads to me staring at the Zelda Timeline with dead eyes and a wish for a swift and painless end.
Art, 3d models and occasional nonsence. Buy me a Ko-fi! Commissions are closed. Please don't repost my art without permission. She/Her.
