i think about this and how there's no heterosexual explanation for it every single day

<link>

and i love this cake!

Like they say in my country, "if you steal from a thief, you have 100 years of forgiveness".

hey! i’m an artist and i was wondering what about the httyd crossover art made it obviously AI. i’m trying to get better at recognizing AI versus real art and i totally would have just not clocked that.

Hey! This is TOTALLY okay to not have recognized it, because I DIDN'T AT FIRST, EITHER. Unfortunately there’s no real foolproof way to distinguish real art from the fake stuff. However I have noticed a general rule of thumb while browsing these last few months.

So this is the AI generated image I used as inspiration. I will not be tagging the account that posted it because I do not condone bullying of any type, but it’s important to mention that this was part of a set of images:

This is important because one of the BIGGEST things you can use to your advantage is context clues. This is the thing that clued me in: right off the bat we can see that there is NO consistency between these three images. The art style and outfits change with every generated image. They're vaguely related (I.E. characters that resemble the Big Four are on some sort of adventure?) and that's about it. Going to the account in question proved that all they posted were AI generated images. All of which have many red flags, but for clarity's sake we'll stick with the one that I used.

The first thing that caught my eye was this???? Amorphous Blob in the background. Which is obviously supposed to be knights or a dragon or something.

Again, context clues come into play here. Artists will draw everything With A Purpose. And if what they're drawing is fanart, you are going to recognize most of what you see in the image. Even if there are mistakes.

In the context of this image, it looks like the Four are supposed to be running from these people. The thing that drew my attention to it was the fact that I Didn't Recognize The Villains, and this is because there is nothing to recognize. These shapes aren't Drago, or Grimmel, or Pitch, or any other villain we usually associate with ROTBTD. They're just Amorphous Blobs that are vaguely villain shaped.

Which brings me to my second point:

Do you see the way they're standing? There is no purpose to this. It throws the entire image off. Your eye is drawn to the Amorphous Villain Blobs in the background, and these characters are not reacting to them one bit.

Now I'm not saying that all images have to have a story behind them, but if this were created by a person, it clearly would have had one. Our group here is not telling a story, they are posing.

This is because the AI does not see the image as a whole, but as two separate components: the setting, and the description of the characters that the prompter dictates. I.E. "Merida from Brave, Jack Frost from ROTG, Rapunzel from Tangled, and Hiccup from HTTYD standing next to each other"

Now obviously the most pressing part of this prompt are the characters themselves. So the AI prioritizes that and tries to spit out something that WE recognize as "Merida from Brave, Jack Frost from ROTG, Rapunzel from Tangled, and Hiccup from HTTYD standing next to each other".

This, more times than not, is going to end up with this stagnant posing. Because AI cannot create, it can only emulate. And even then, it still can't do it right. Case in point:

This is not Hiccup. The AI totally thinks this is Eugene Fitzherbert. Look at the pose. The facial structure. The goatee. The smirk. The outfits. He's always next to Raps. Why does he have a quiver? Where's Toothless? His braids? His scar??

HE HAS BOTH OF HIS LEGS.

The AI. Cannot even get the most important part of it's prompt correct.

And that's just the beginning. Here:

More amorphous shapes.

So these are obviously supposed to be utility belts, but I mean. Look at them. The perspective is all off. There are useless straps. I don't even know what that cluster behind Jack's left arm is supposed to be.

This is a prime example of AI emulating without understanding structure.

You can see this particularly in Jack, between his hands, the "tassels" of his tunic, and the odd wrinkles of his boots. There's just not any structure here whatsoever.

Lastly, AI CANNOT CREATE PATTERNS.

Here are the side-by-sides of the shit I had to deal with when redesigning their outfits. Please someone acknowledge this. This killed me inside. THIS is most recognizable to me, and usually what I look for first if I'm wary about an art piece. These clusterfuck bunches of color. I hate them. I hate them so. much.

Anyways here's some other miscellaneous things I've noticed:

Danny Phantom Eyes

???? Thumb? (and random sword sheath)

Collarbone Necklace (corset from hell)

No Staff :( No Bow :(

What is that.

So yeah. Truly the best thing to do is to just. study it. A lot of times you aren't gonna notice anything just looking at the big picture, you need to zoom in and focus on the little details. Obviously I'm not like an expert in AI or anything, but I do have a degree in animation practices and I'm. You know. A human being. So.

In conclusion:

(Y'all should totally reblog my redesign of this btw)

Enchanted Bedroom Set (Maxis Match Build/Buy CC!)

I really enjoy the mystical, magical vibe (I mean if you know me you know), and I wanted more of that in the game. This set was super fun to make and I learned a lot of things for it, one of them being how to make custom bedding deform properly while animating. It was very frustrating for a while, but satisfying once I got it.

One item I find very fun in this set is the Geode Lamp, which is technically a lamp but can be a plain crystal geode if you turn it off. It emits a soft glow which also lets you customize its hue to your liking in-game as well! The Sun Goddess Mirror can also be placed at any height you choose, similar to paintings in the game.

Download (Patreon, Early Access until February 17th!)

12 New Assets are included in this set!

Comfort: Celestial Slumber Bed.

Decoration: Divine Drapery, Sun Goddess Mirror, Antique Charm Rug, Hanging Ivy.

Lights: Eternal Flame Candle, Geode Lamp, Celestial String Lights.

Surface: Antique Elegance Dresser, Antique Elegance End Table.

Activities: Mystical Incense (Functional SPA DAY Version, or Base Game Decorative Version!)

Wall: Wood Paneling.

Enjoy🤍

im alive i swear. bf got a phrog 🙏

Aang took a deep breath, willing his hands to stop shaking as he sprinkled lychee nuts and berries into the bowl. He kept his head down and tried to withhold the blush threatening to cover his cheeks. Right across from him sat the source of his discomfort: Toph Bei Fong. She looked as if she belonged in the Fire Nation, her clothes a vibrant mix of reds and golds. He shook some salt into the bowl, stretching to grab the spoon when she refused to budge from her spot.

Toph cleared her throat, her sightless eyes narrowing in annoyance. He pretended not to notice, hastily adding milk and sugar to the mixture. He knew that she felt the nervous pounding of his heart just as well as he knew that he could never out-silence her whenever she wanted to figure out whatever it was that was bothering him.

As much as he loved her way of showing concern, he really didn’t trust himself to speak at the moment. Not about the topic at hand.

He hoped that he wouldn’t have to do this; that he wouldn’t need to confess to her. Before the war had ended she had made herself a vital part of his life but now, as they traveled the world and tried to bring peace to damaged villages, her presence in his life had grown. She already was a constant while he was awake, but now she was everywhere: in his dreams, in his thoughts, in his fantasies. He gnawed at the inside of his cheek, frustrated at his own hesitation.
