Drive letters are one of the few things I miss about windows now that I’m on linux.

Boredom, deadline induced adrenaline, and an unhealthy amount of alcohol. If I’m lucky, the project will fall under my current hyperfixation, and that will make it easier.

I don’t recommend my strat.

I just assume that everything I’ve ever done is already in the ai anyway. Chatgpt could probably summarize my book and I haven’t even wrote it yet (it’s very good at turning my drunk ramblings into coherent notes for me to review when sober. Drunk me also has no willpower to resist easy dopamine.)

I was drunk and lazy, and my hand hurt because it’s been years since I’ve done much drawing. Honestly, I’m liking the ai version less the more I see it. It looked great when I was drunk though.

I was drunk and drunk me was getting depressed. Sober me likes my art a lot more. It felt good to make, and all this external validation is helping me stay motivated to keep getting better.

Deleted my other response to you because I was drunk and it was embarrassing. Lots of very good comments here (including yours) telling me exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you.

That’s the kind of thing that I needed to hear. It’s not what I wanted when I posted, but you’re right. Also, the more I look at the ai version, the less I like it. It looked great when I was drunk last night though.

The more I look at the ai version, the less I like it. It looked great when I was drunk last night. Also all this external validation is really helping my mental state. I’ll probably be using ai less because of this.

Making the sketch felt nice, and I’m enjoying being able to show it to people and say I did art. I keep rereading this thread, and all this validation is going to help me keep going.

I used the wrong terminology, but I see what you mean. Also, the more I look at the ai version, the less I like it. It looked great last night when I was drunk though.

All good points and thanks for the validation, its going to help me not get discouraged.

If I ever do actually write the book, what communities should I advertise in?

thank you

ai also really fucked up the hands. The more I look at it the worse it gets. It looked great while I was drunk though.

It should be stylized as Glitch-DX but I’ve gotten lazy in recent years.

edit: oh hey, lemmy supports setting custom display names, nice

My hobby is buying materials for projects and then not doing the projects.

glitch dee ex

or just glitch is fine.

It’s not what I wanted to hear, but I think it’s what I needed to hear.

I’m trying. It’s hard.

I care. and I hate my own work the most.
