Arttober Challenge day 24 - AI portrait of friends making. Another random AI generated image from my friend used as a concept.
When using AI concept/references if it is better if the image is not "perfect". End of day it is an idea, a concept, and for that as you are drawing it from scratch it is better if it is not already a perfect figure. Stuff like long necks, dodgy eyes, crooked or multiple fingers and so on all need to be addressed and problem solved. This way you actually still grow and learn problem solving compared to just drawing something that is already done for you.
Idea been is that one day you can draw without the need of reference, stock pack, AI concept or otherwise, and the heavy need for references becomes less. There will always been a need for references as this ensures accuracy, but it helps if you can do the vast bulk of work without 1.
So this is 4 hours of work and can tell off the bat I have areas to work on. I left the hair in blocks as the reference images the hair was loose draped over the shoulders and down the chest.
