A rough cut gif/fly-through of my big, recent wip/drawing exercise book project. I’d started this back in 2008/10(?)ish when my dearest friend @shuuuuuuuuut_ gave me this abfab leather bound moleskine that I felt sort of intimidated to draw in… so I set some rules in an attempt to make a thing of it & get over myself, mb change some habits (namely not finishing things & also tearing out/crumpling a good 70% of my sketchbooks with my whole straight to pen&ink trip at the time)… so I had to just draw & finish whatever I started whether I thought it was “going somewhere” or not, if I made a mistake or wasn’t in love w/ it… I’d just persist. That was the idea anyway. Some kinda slow-burn, take it on when you’re feeling it/maybe it’ll shake things up for myself in some way project. So, it’s a spooling out…stream of consciousness just straight-up Blort! for the first 20 or so pages, gets into environments/crowds, then kinda skids into a zoom/flipbook type of experience. I remember (& this is typical) flying through a lot of it initially, getting lost, finding my way back, got really excited & went deep, then got REALLY lost & hung up for a bit (like several years)… basically a rollercoaster. Decided after awhile I’d unlock from the need to execute it physically (what it’d become anyway) & look at what could be done digitally to pick up the reigns again/look at the big picture of how to share what I’d made. So, soon to come… what was my precious/object d’art 5.5x3.5” back-of-my-mind-project for over 10 years… will soon be an 11x7” softcover coffee table/flipbook! Was hoping I’d have this sorted for MoCCA this year but presently taking some time on design & printing. Stay tuned!

A last few from my first run testing MJv5… running some version of the prompt: a still from an insanely-realistic live-action bande desinée sci-fi film directed by Stanley Kubrick & Alejandro Jodorowsky : inspired by Moebius & Katsuhiro Otomo : A space pirate & their crew with an angry hybrid-animal mascot : escaping a gerontocracy prison-space station : in the style of Captain Harlock, Judge death, a clockwork Orange & tokusatsu heroes in exquisitely-detailed costumes by Lieji Matsumoto : realistic emotive facial expressions & body language : realistic, concise & cohesive anatomy : live-action bande desinée aesthetic --ar 1920:1080 --v 5 …absolutely fan-fucking-tastic (especially after how broken & blurry v4 was). Blorf! 🫡🫠🫥🤖 computers!!! #ai #aiart #midjourneyai #midjourneyv5 #iterativeart #derivativeaction #filmsthatdontexist #characterdesign #scifiart #leijiverse #leijiversefandom https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp5IPEQOIhd/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

From the upcoming drawing exercise/book project…picking up where that last sequence left off (we’re IN a bug’s head/cockpit & the passenger has just punched the driver-presumably for being an obnoxious beast of a man?)… now we zoom in-between their shoulders & enter the cargo-hold… #procreate #procreateart #procreatedrawing #printedmatter (at Flatbush, Brooklyn, NY, USA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpS72QZOUmh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

MJ4 raw output of an old favorite idea… a mashup of #thevisibleman anatomy models w/ #mylittlepony …did some mildly successful Pokémon as well (was thinking of those lovely 70’s Kaiju & Yokai cross-section illustrations) but as usual it all went off the rails & I end up just walking away w/ whatever I get 🫡🫠🫥 I started w/ the Pokémon & the weird heart/organ model thing ‘cause they’re cool & had attempted some img2img using refs of My Little Pony toys but it seemed like I got more interesting images w/ out it (you can see the in last image it was giving me a pretty wide variety from on model to completely out there).

MJ —v 4 outputs in the direction of those “directed by Jodorowsky/Cunningham/Kubrick/Henson” ✨😳✨prompts + a lot of “characters in the style of Nirasawa, Moebius, John Singer Sargent, Jordu Schel & Terryl Whitlatch” & the old “in a futuristic/brutalist city background by Syd Mead”… closer closeups & switching out Kubrick for Jodo started to shift the cast around a bit…still a funny regular to freaky-person ratio though😂🤣💦 #AI #aiart #midjourneyai #midjourney #midjourneyart #iterativeart #notcyberpunk #scifiart #moviesthatneverexisted https://www.instagram.com/p/Clkx1mguZaw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
