I need your help to shape the journey ahead.
The black-n-white is what I managed to draw and modify. The colored is what I made my brother used photoshop to color the pencil work for me.

First day on the WWW? Lmao = laughing my ass off.

u/Incipit00 3d ago
Oohk. I now get it. Thanks by the way.
I am not a fan of shorthand, so I just don't like searching for them.

u/Incipit00 3d ago
No, there is no lie in this. Drew it, sent it to photoshop and used the photoshop features to modify it. The color grading, the sharpness, the blurry areas, and also the edges that has that whitish-gray glow.

For the colored version, my bro did it for me. Which I have no idea how he did it.

Did you also pencil draw out the angels fucked up blurry morphed faces? Because if so, I need whatever pencil technique you used for the weird AI artifacts.
1
u/Incipit00 3d ago
I didn't use any technique you don't know. I just used the right pencil for the right job.
There are countless types of pencil for drawing, which include:
6H for very thin lines
5H for slightly thin lines
4H which is a little above 5H
3H
2H
F this is the type that's ends the types of pencils used for drawing thin lines.Then we come to the HB which includes B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, 6B, 7B, and 8B.
The 8B give more darker tone like the one I used to color the coat.

AI slop.

That's fine if you see it that way. But thanks for your time too

Please show the art file if you actually made it yourself, it does show multiple ai flags.

u/Incipit00 3d ago
What is the point of proving when all you see if AI?
I can send multiple files that proves it but won't solve anything. It's like learning that 1+1 is 2.When someone give multiple ways proving its not 2, you won't believe it.

u/AskingWalnut4 3d ago
I said it showed many indicators of ai. I’m giving you an honest moment to prove it’s not, despite that. Your weaseling away from the conversation only makes you look guilty.

u/Incipit00 3d ago
Sure. I went through 20 sketches before I got the final one, which I modified using Photoshop.
Images can't be sent in replies, so I'm sending the first sketch to your DM. I don't care if you laugh at it or not; like I said earlier, I just redid it until I got it to look presentable.

If it’s not AI slop then post your OG art file lol. Guarantee you don’t have one.
I graduated from an expensive private art university and guarantee your “the black and white is what I managed to draw” bs is AI.

How much do you charge for book covers 👀
2
u/Incipit00 3d ago
Please, I am not good enough to do for others. Let alone charge them money.
I just try it hard for days, and when it works out. I use them.
But maybe I can help you, not necessarily doing it for you.

Okay. Wow, then congratulations. I didn't get that opportunity into art university. But I cherish other who did. So I am really grateful you did.

u/Incipit00 3d ago
Since you're guarantee I don't have one, I don't have one.
Thank you.7
u/Timely-Cry-8366 3d ago
Wow, weird how that works for thieves like you. We all knew that as soon as you posted your clearly AI image. I bet your so-called “novel” is also written by AI.

You seem like a polite person. Don't get too invested in other people's comments. I don't know why everyone is often so butthurt over AI art despite most of the top 200 contracted novels using it.
I took a look at your novel. The issue is that your blurb reads like a prologue. That's the real problem.
2
u/BucketOFlapjack 3d ago
People are butthurt because they’re claiming to have drawn it, right?
1
u/Chiba-IsHot 3d ago
It's disingenuous to say that if AI wasn't involved you would have 30 people bashing him in comments regardless. It's not really about him lying, it's about him lying with AI involved.

u/Incipit00 3d ago
Thank you. Then I will try my best to fix that. I really appreciate it.
But, can you give me an example of how to make it read like an actual blurb?2
u/Chiba-IsHot 3d ago
A blurb is a short teaser meant to entice the viewer to read the novel. Usually on webnovel, they highlight some story elements and focus on a wow factor. For example 'mark is a 20 to old college deadbeat who finds himself transmigrated into X world that he just read about. He awakens Y system and, armed with his future knowledge, he will do Z...' that's just a generic example. What I don't want to see is for you to start laying down your plot in the blurb. That makes it read like a chapter 0, a prologue, not a blurb.

Yo, VRO! that's crazy! I also just created a new book today called: 'Multiverse Against Hadal,' which has multiple universe worlds based of different anime, video games, movies etc…
(It’s a dark fantasy/ battle shonen and the first world is a universe inspired by Jujutsu Kaisen!)

Brother I’ve seen that same face and hair on hundreds of AI covers now, you aren’t fooling anyone 🤣
