Sometimes when you're having trouble drawing after nearly a half a year, you just gotta trace an otp base to refamiliarize yourself with anatomy and add the details you want so you don't lose your goddamn mind and get discouraged while trying to get to that point.

A base / drawing refrence for you guys!

Based off a photo my dad took with me being a gremlin, now you too can draw 2 of your OCs, faves, or OTP like this.

[michi0no]

I made some drawing bases! Idk if I like how I did them but feel free to use them!

If you DO use these, please link me!

I DID base them on some stock photos and if you’d rather use those, I’m putting them below the cut.

I miss those otp videos from 2015 where a love song would play over images of a ship.

This art is a declaration of love for oneshinyapple's story “Built To Fall Apart (and Back Together)”

I have to say, it's hard to find the words to describe the emotions her work evoked in me. Everyone who reads fanfics has one such fic that you can't forget, right? Big, dramatic, with wonderfully and canonically written characters? With a plot you couldn't even imagine? Where there are your favorite tropes? Has everything you need and more?

This one is exactly like that, and it's also written about SpideyTorch, a very underrated OTP that I originally wouldn't even dream of finding anything worthwhile on.

If you love Spideytorch, but skipped "Built To Fall Apart" because it's not finished…. trust me, it's worth your time.

OSApple created their universe based on canon. There are familiar characters and situations, but some things happened differently. The author took the story where it needed to go. And then…. introduced another Johnny and Peter from the 616 universe!

It was such a magnificent audacity, I still can't believe it. Their appearance was for me like Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield appearing in the movie "No Way Home".

My draw certainly can't tell and convey everything that's in this fic. But I hope it will please you, dear Oneshinyapple.

I saw a horrible AI Tam and Lucy this morning in animal onesies and had to use my actual human hands to make a better version.

After drawing the whole thing I was like damn....I should have made s*xy pin ups with little ears, so if you want to tell me to do that, consider joining the patreon

Edited because tumblr absolutely will not allow me to reply to messages, so I'm trying to reply to @booksnwriting:

The difference is that the other person put their prompt into a computer and the computer program took a bunch of artists' hard work and skill without permission to fill that prompt. I'm taking human skill, time and effort and using it to fill a prompt. What I'm doing is no different than any art challenge, or draw your OTP like this meme or whatever. Do I have their permission? No, but frankly if you're out here stealing other people's skills and calling it art, then I think it's only fair that your ideas can be turned around and used as prompts by people with those skills to produce actual drawings. Furthermore, what I'm doing is not hurting them, but if they didn't have access to a database of stolen work, maybe they would have given money to an actual human artist to draw their prompt, maybe they would have held a little drawing prompt contest and shared the art and gained real artists exposure which could then allow those artists to find work doing other commissions. Even if they didn't do either of those things, even if not having AI meant their idea just stayed in their head never to see the light of day, the existence of AI art in general devalues skills people had to work to develop and takes jobs away from those people by taking their existing work. That actively hurts artists. I'm "bashing" them because what they're doing is actively harming me and people like me.

Based on your user name I assume you are probably a writer, and I would like to ask you: is there more value in an actual human being writing things like fanfic (stories using other people's ideas as their jumping off point) or original books that include genre tropes than there is in typing prompts into a text generating AI?

Would you be annoyed if someone chose to write a retelling of Dracula using their own brain and hands in response to hearing that someone else was marketing a Dracula retelling that they'd "written" using a text autofill program?

And just so we're clear, the thing that makes the AI horrible is that it's AI, not whether or not it's nice to look at.
