This image by the amazing James Gurney is a great example of how to tell when something is or isn't AI generated, because finger weirdness will not always be around.
What jumps out in this image that makes it feel (because it is) human made?
1 Distance is indicated by a reduction in detail and temperature.
2 It's not a static ship+landscape+figure. A dog is napping. . A ship is launching. The exhaust from the launched ship is filling the hanger. One guy is drinking. Another is fixing a thing while lying prone.
3 There are places of low detail for the eye to rest.
4 Cables are contiguous. They start and end in specific locations and do not appear out of no-where.
5 People are wearing different outfits, not variations of the same outfit.
6 When the viewer focuses on something, a small detail, it resolves into a legible something, it doesn't fall apart under scrutiny.
At this point in time, I think the most telling aspect (no pun intended) is the little mini-narratives. Things are HAPPENING. I've seen 10's of thousands of AI images. This is extremely uncommon. They are almost always compositions. Evocative at times, sure, but not narrative.
This painting is by James Gurney, a tremendously talented AND generous artist. Check him on YouTube - he does a lot of painting videos. His blog is: https://gurneyjourney.blogspot.com
I’m running an Introductory Animation Workshop with creative arts students this Saturday (August 20, 2016) for The School of Creative Arts Open Day at Melbourne Polytechnic’s Prahran Campus.
I’ve rotoscoped and broken down some of the greatest dance gifs to their basic poses and we’re going to collaboratively design characters then MAKE THEM DANCE!!
Come down, check out the campus and say HI!
I can’t wait to see the weird animated goofs that result from this workshop, I’ll post them in a couple of days so we can all be in awe of their hilarious spontaneity!
Polywogus is shown with his Ri8bit minion and his pixel hammer and joyblaster accessories. The plan is for him to be available through cults3d for people with 3d printers and Shapeways for those that don’t.
Two points of articulation in the shoulders, uses 3mm pegs for weapons and shoulder joints.
The Ghosts are designed to be compatible with various Ghostbusters figs and to just be fun little critters on their own.
Sketchbook doodles. I've stepped away from digital tools for the moment and have been working on my hand skills. Using up my collection of vintage Col-Erase 1277s.
These 3 Godzilla puzzles come from HG Toys in Long Beach New York: the same company behind the “Godzilla Battles the Tricephelon Monster” play set. In fact there’s a fourth puzzle with Tricephelon art that has yet to find its way to my collection. :)
These puzzles are named (from top to bottom) “City Rampage”, “Air Atrack”, and “Harbor Havoc”.
I love this Godzilla art where he has the more dinosaur look, which was somewhat common in the late 70s/early 80s. There are so many great details in these images!
Today I thought that I had forgotten how to draw … 😅 This sketch has certainly taken me 4 hours, I was so angry! After a long walk with Dexter I started again and now I’m quite happy. Do you know these moments?
