Some thoughts: When using GenAi as a mood board you don't get sources. This means you deprive yourself from knowledge. You generated a location? You deprived yourself of knowing more about the interesting parts of the world and why things came to be. Generate an armor or costume? You deprived yourself on real world techniques, function, form and history. You generated art inspirations? You deprive yourself of learning about artists from history or lock out living ones from potentially being hired. Ethical issues of using GenAi models aside, one ends up making visuals mood boards devoid of reality and history. With it one deprives themselves from learning about our world and who is living in it, inadvertently making your work weaker, because of how detached it is from our shared human reality and history.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

Two drawings of a cat-like girl. One is of her on all fours. The other is of her wearing a denim jacket with her hands in her pockets.

Three drawings of a cat-like girl doing different expressions. The first is furrowing one eyebrow. The second looks happy, with an unusually wide smile showing her sharp teeth and snake-like tongue. The third has her jaw stretching impossibly wide, much like a snake when it swallows its prey.

more doodles of my creechur. isn't she cute! #art #digitalart #oc

A drawing of a cat-like girl with a snake's tongue standing with her back to the camera. She's in front of a solid red background with splatters in black ink, and she's looking over her shoulder with her hands in the pockets of her denim jacket. The title reads "Manslayer" written in sharp lines. The style overall resembles old-school comics with stark black shadows.

a monster that's also a teenage girl, living it up in the post-apocalyptic world #art #digitalart #oc

Character references for two homestuck fan trolls. One is a gold-blood with dual-colored glasses, yellow and teal, named Breaker. She has gold, lightning shaped scars all over her body. Her glasses double as a communication ear piece. The traits for Breaker list out: she/her, DIY top surgery, willing lab rat, voidrot, and knows martial arts and can glimpse the near future. The other character is a teal-blood named Signal, who holds a tablet with a crescent moon logo on the back. It's labeled "AAC device and hacking tools". He has various scars and stitching all over his limbs. Signal's traits list out: he/she, evil autism, people are specimen to be dissected (including himself), and DIY HRT. There's additional text saying "and they were pale mates".

Two homestuck trolls in their everyday attire. Breaker, on the left, wears a sleeveless top with jeans and boots. This shows off the lightning shaped gold scarring all over her body. Signal, on the right, has a long lab coat with holes at the ends. Long blades stick out from under his skin. His sweater is neatly tucked into his flared pants and he wears pointy heeled boots. A few of his scars, in stitch-like patterns, can be seen with his sleeves rolled up.

Three simple drawings of Revv, a character with black hair and wolf features. The left-most sticker has her looking in awe at a frog, tail wagging. The top-most sticker shows her looking up with a big sparkly eye. The last one is where she sits with her legs sprawled out, ears droopy, crying big fat tears.

lil doodles of my werewolf d&d character, revv ^_^ #dnd #art #digitalart #oc

Drawing of a guy with messy black hair. He wears a plain brown beanie and brown jacket with a zipped up black turtleneck underneath. He looks flustered while making eye contact with the camera.

Dillan, a wasian boy with short black hair, pulls a flower out of his eye. It's long and unnatural. There's more flowers beneath him, looking mutated in similar ways. Text overlaps the illustration reciting information on fasciation. Highlighted sections of text read out, "Fasciation is a condition of abnormal growth in which the person becomes contorted. Genetics or disruption can result in fasciation, including environmental stressors, damage by animal, chemical or mechanical injury. Fasciation has been successfully induced through severe wounding."

The same image but with a transparent background and no text. Dillan, a wasian boy with short black hair, pulls a flower out of his eye. It's long and unnatural. There's more flowers beneath him, looking mutated in similar ways.

another one for @burgir.nekoweb.org :) had a lot of fun with this one #art #artfight

A girl named Mara sits nonchalantly with her head tilted back. One arm is resting on her knee. Her white shirt has one horizontal black stripe in the middle with a sweater underneath. She wears camo patterned shorts along with black crew socks and sporty tennis shoes. There's an eyepatch over her right eye. Her hair is short and messy.

Two drawings of a half-demon character with purple skin and hair. He has bird-like wings. One of the drawings has him falling backwards with dramatic foreshortening. The other has him looking happy-go-lucky. There's text with the lyrics: "And I don't wanna die, but I'll jump before I'll fall."

Drawing of Anthony, a boy with white hair. He's wearing a dress shirt that's white with brown collar and sleeves plus a green cardigan. His left eye is covered with a bright pink splatter, and he's trying to cover his mouth where white flowers are spilling out.

the utdr origin story is so funny to me i think about it all the time. who the fuck has a prophetic vision about a video game they will make one day, tries to make said video game, sucks shit, decides to make a less intense game to get practice, then makes fucking undertale

dramatic photo of a wolf running across a shallow body of water while text on the bottom left says "Be yourself, Asian butch" in white Bible verse-esque font

i made this for myself but i hope others get at least a smile out of it
