I played around with AI image generation a little bit (when I first heard about it, it freaked me out, so I wanted to see for myself) and I honestly don't think it can take over that many art jobs, because as it exists right now, the technology has very concrete limitations. Or rather, limitation. …
Photography is a thing that gets mentioned in comparison. It used to be a viable and succesful career doing event photography. Film photography is another. Instant film another. These were killed off and diminished with the advent of digital and tech moving on into hand held devices. Eventually when…
Yes and in music it´s many things. We don´t have any product to sell anymore except merchandise. The bands are not the ones that make the money anymore. People who talk about this don´t even have a faint idea how many jobs were connected to the music industry and record sales which don´t exist anymo…
Hey friends, I know this is a hot topic right now, so I wanted to jump in and see if anyone was interested in a quick collab to address the most common argument being used right now to discount the art theft of AI image generators. The argument is that AI image generators scraping art is identical t…
"In a saturated market, it's tough to stand apart from the crowd. In a world with many great writers lacking opportunities, Team Tapas has made a great, positive step in the right direction towards giving them that opportunity. I love being part of this community, and I've been part of a few communi…
Hi! It's me again with complaints, sorry [:cry_01:] I don't recall this happening yesterday, but today when I click on a comic it takes me to the very first episode. This even happens for comics that I'm in the process of reading, including a super long one that has about 600 episodes! How am I su…
Oh man, haven't uploaded in a longgggg time because of school @_@. I plan to upload more once I feel like I got some basics of drawing down. But anyway, I will link you all the first video of my youtube channel from last year. I voiced over my comic...which I plan to redraw :D.
Here's a character I'll post because I want to start the comic but like I just don't have the time and I need to get it out of my system. [image] his name is Djali and he runs a monster bakery. He doesn't have human ears, and he keeps his hair long to hide the fact he's got long floppy ears like…
Posted this little dude before, but have been doing some more work on him. Bruno Brancaleone is the son of two of the dumbest people to ever scrape together a billion dollars. He holds the doubtful honor of being the most kidnapped kid in the world, on account of his dumbass parents always paying …
Hello everyone, We apologize for the inconvenience to those negatively impacted by the recent influx of spam comments. We've had a number of past incidents revolving around spam in the forums, and some creator-wall based spam postings but this is the first time we've come across spam in this scal…
Yes! This will be awesome for companies like Disney, tho, who can pay the fines without major worries. As you said, they just want the money.
What worries me the most is that since this is a government thing, it might spread across all the internet, including Twitch, Dailymotion, etc. and affect comics app, even of they are tagged mature/ pg13, because, ya know, if it has colorful drawings, it must be for kids
Can anyone help? Can anyone offer words of advice, or encouragement, or maybe just comfort...? I'm so confused...like, more than usual. 6___6 But basically the gist of what I understand is: Option A: Make content marked exclusively for adults to consume. But if the powers that be (?) decide that…
Woaahhhhh!!! You are a total inspiration to me!!! I hope your arm gets well soon!!!
Hai everyone!!! Do you love drawing comics? Do you draw from dawn to dusk (or a significant period of time) everyday pouring your heart into your story! Creating characters, a plot, and even an entire world, for your readers to enjoy! Yes~ just seeing the glow of someones smiling face after reading…
I might be working on a youtube channel in the future but for right now all I have are some few videos of art, most of them are unlisted though.
Yeah I haven't put a speedpaint up in a while since I stream my art nowadays, (I almost forgot I have a youtube channel) but here's a speedpaint of how I made this. It's very different from how I approach comics haha. So if you want to see a quicker linework tutorial (the other one is half an ho…
It seems to be a problem on Tapas' side. Several other people are having the same issue today and it hasn't been sorted out yet.
I love youtube videos! If I had more time I would do them all the time (Not that I'm good at it, but I like the medium). As an ink reward I made a silly thing for my readers:
[image] (Wait me think a story)..... .... ok.. .. Melissa travels the land, to sell stuffs and meet people (similar to gypsy). She hides a lot of mysterious items and weapons inside her thick clothing. She likes grass land or withered forest and doesn't mention her last name because it gives out …
Oh no! I hope your hand gets better! That bunny comic idea sounds super fun tho! <3
Hey y'all I've been getting into twitter a lot more lately. There's two things I wanna do with this thread. 1) Pls share your twitter I miss y'all over there I wanna follow more ppl from the tapas community. 2) Lets share some twitter advice while we're at it. I guess I'll start. @niahmakess…
I've always been pretty bad at Twitter (if that's even a thing you can be). I do have an account for one of my illustration projects though: @DenimVenom I may restart a personal account at some point again (or maybe something to help promote my projects on Tapas), but I've enjoyed having an accou…
holy shit yall. we'll finally be able to rotate text! still pretty naff text tool, but theyre getting there... next they need to change it so that you can shift the paragraph shape by reshaping the box instead of hitting enter a tonne
T_T I can't get ink yet. It'd be nice if I could do something though... ads have been a bit low for me lately.
Welp, let's get this gear into motion! =) Enjoy reading my fantasy manga Remember!
