Along with the AI-related problems for us artists, your first panel gave examples of what current 21st-century techno-culture generates: fat porn.
Who knows, maybe it's an improvement...in the late 1990's, the highest effort was monkey porn...

There are LORA models online that can generate all kinds of weird p0rnz.
It's my belief that if there are people utilizing LORA models to generate the gnarliest and most distasteful smut imaginable then there are likely people who will utilize it to make sincere and beautiful art.
I'm not a fan of Stable Diffusion and how it operates in order to work but situations like this make me believe it unfortunately has staying power.
He must be the captain of the great two-masted ship "FREUDIAN GLORY".
That's a good title. I will save that for later.
I hope she isn't paying a high mortgage on that house...
But seriously, it's well done.
H. P. Lovecraft would really dig this...the slug-men look like something he would dream up & put in one of his stories.
All that, "without a plan"?...How?!?
Wish I could pull a world right out of my brain like that...
If I was seriously into cycling instead of a not-often-enough rider, I'd consider having this tattooed on one of my shins...the pump, that is.
That'd be awesome. XD If you ever do plan to do through such a procedure though I'm sure I could doodle up something a bit more polished; something it took more than a day to make!
'ppreciate it!
This too would be risky to "fave". Anyone who can consistently make a viewer feel that way has the horror shtick down pat.
It's funny you should draw this, as I'm in the market for a chainsaw right now....
Edit: The hell with it. I'm faveing this piece anyway.
Lol thanks!
What a funny coincidence indeed...
This is the first piece of yours I've seen with a caption in it...
The demon figure reminds me of Malebolgia, from the Spawn series. Cool.
Not much I can add that others haven't already commented on... It reminds me of that old English engraving of Molech, the Canaanite tribal god they sacrificed children to (according to the story).
Ooh I don't think I'd heard of Molech before, fascinating origins... depictions differ it seems, but in the maybe most traditional he looks more like a cow to me. Unholy cow... wonder if he could be a visual origin of how Satan tends to be portrayed and all too, though there are probably plenty of similar horn-clad horrors with older tribes, ought read up, South American tribes had similar ones at least a few thousand years BC, though not sure they were depicted with horns or no, I think it was more wings/fangs then...
Thanks for the review and lore Shaden, cool to know about!
This is one of the better pieces in your gallery.
...am curious as to how you got those stray hair lines popping out against Dunst's overall hair mass.
