I've used AI to make this D: - Bonnie Revamped and Tomboys Poll's Sketch Prize (Patreon)

Heya there mateys

As the title says, i've used AI to make these drawings. Yeah, I'm sorry and kinda ashamed, since  it could be an insult to other artists that put all their effort to improve their art... Hey, wait a minute, I think there is a misundertanding! Yes, I used AI but not to actually make or improve these images, or do you see more than 5 toes on their feet or another weird aspect coming out from the bodies of the ticklees? I've used AI but just as reference. I've used images generated with AI as reference, since the expresions of intense lauhging in those pictures are truly awesome, and hardly seen on real tickling photos or videos. These were actually drawn by myself.

As you can see, I've been practicing and improving my semi realistic painting drawing skills. Used the image of Bonnie MacFarlane that I made some years ago, which, according to me, was made in "realistic" style. Lol, I can't see it anymore, it kinda hurts me XD. I don't want to be rude with myself, but man, thought it looked kinda odd on the past and now, compared with the revamped  version... well, the newest one looks really way too better than the first one xD. (I've attached again the first version in case you want to compare)

Also, practiced with this new sketch, that is actually the prize for the "Tomboys" Poll nominations winner: greg walker. I won't tell who the ticklee is, to see if I managed to make it correctly and you can guess who is the "mystery" character XD.

Anyways, this is what I've been doing too the last months XD. what do you think? Have you thought they were actually made with AI? Do you like the result? Or should I improve way to much to be compared with the AI yet? (Of course I have to improve a lot of aspects, but you get qhat I said xD). Don't be shy, and let me hear your thoughs! ;D

By the way, wanna mention, that I'm working on various pictures at the same time, some commissions, the actual Image of Korra of the last poll (that I debt since half past year I'm very ashamed XP). And of course, the next part of the "Happy Holidays" image. So, stay tuned, you really don't wanna miss it ;D
