    I used to think they were AI so skipped a few on my .ml cross-posting campaign, but they have provided documentation of their workflow (https://reddthat.com/post/58923858) of which seems real enough to me and have thus resumed cross-posting as encountered. If you have reason to doubt their documentation, please share

    As far as the trolling, I have had limited interaction with them but it was pleasant enough

      the first workflow just shows the finished image

      the second workflow shows a really light sketch and the finished image. i also want to know how he did this. how did that guy completely remove the background.

      all pictures are also super low-resolution

        First pic is my pencil sketch.

        Then I ink over it. I legit showed you how I erased the background. I used the erase tool (the tiny square you see in that image), adjusted brightness/contrast, then levels, then I convert to black and white. Photopea is online and free. Take a pic into it and you can open it right now and see for yourself.

        I not here to teach people how to use Photopea or how to draw; there are tutorials out there for that. And they are free.

        I posted for other cartoonists who might wanna make the leap from sketchbook to Lemmy, and I showed that it doesn’t take any money to do it. I don’t even scan my comics, I take pics of my drawings with my phone and take into Photopea (Free photoshop alternative) and I am on Linux Mint (Free) operating system.

        I gave you a step-by-step process and you are still no convinced. That least me to believe you will never be convinced. And that’s fine. I take it that you are not a cartoonist then, because nothing I have shown is mysterious to people who do this.

      What explanation do you have for their entire gimmick being about Lemmy and AI art conspiracies?

        My entire “gimmick” is not about AI conspiracies. The Lemmy part is because I created this comic specifically as a Lemmy-only comic for my own community. The ai conspiracies is because it’s a current subject everywhere.

        I draw plenty of other comics about other subjects, my other art name is mr.prol1f1c and I have many comics posted from with name in my comics community: !Cartoons@reddthat.com

        Also, how have I spammed? I post to my own community and one other comics community. I don’t copy my comics to this community, another poster does. Please tell me how that counts as spamming.
