You don’t need a studio budget to create stunning story art for yourself, or your fans. My 2 years of trial and error in one video to help you get started.
Thanks for this video. I've been using MJ in Discord so it's nice to learn more about the web interface. I like your process, too, and will probably rewatch. I generate images for some of my blog posts and especially like using MJ for images to go along with fiction excerpts I post. I'm using a cover artist for my upcoming book but have a lot of fun with MJ both for the blog and to help conceptualize things during world building. I have gotten a certain amount of blowback for using generative AI here on Substack so it's nice to see a post from someone who's AI friendly!
I also started out in Discord :) The web interface is very nice. We do similar things; I generate art for my own stories and my own blog posts, often because stock art is overused, and I want to show something more specific than what's possible out there. There will always be blowback, and I'm sorry that it happens. I'd love to see more of what you're up to!
Thanks! I just read your War for Meaning post and liked it a lot. I'm looking at the community again (I got a free membership a while back but didn't do much with) now.

I'm a visual artist, and any of you could ask me to draw something for you, for free. I do acrylic, watercolor, pencil, pen, and a mix of all of that.
That's so cool :) Where do you showcase your artwork? :)
You can see some of my work on Tumblr under CelebenArinya
(It's mostly the medieval style right now, but I post every Saturday. I have art saved up so I can post regularly lol.)
