To use human artists for my projects, I am forming STUDiO ONVOi ● Right now this consists of myself, Rob C. Richardson & a couple of others ● Major projects (like “FUR AND BRIMSTONE”) will have crowdfunding ● Smaller projects rely on my Patreon (currently at $60 a month, yes I need waaay more $5/$10/$20 supporters) ● Some, like “The Last Vestige” cover, are 100% done by a human artist ● However, $60 goes about as far as my Disability check does ● So, to ethically balance idealism with reality, we’re combining human art with AI ● Either a human sketches 1st & an AI finishes their art OR we begin with AI & a human artist completes it (*samples for all attached) ● As our budget increases, we’ll hire more human artists & use far less AI (eventually none) ● I know some will hate this & some will think it's a practical compromise ● I post this to be as transparent as possible & to let you know we need your help 🙏🏼
*NOTE: “Fur and Brimstone: SNOWBLIND” is a manga side-story to the main “FIRE AND BRIMSTONE” graphic novel & the “FIRE AND BRIMSTONE” RPG.
