I'm sorry to hear that. I love taking care of Grandma, but doing so means I can't work regularly, which means I can't afford certain things that I'd like to help her with (and things for myself). She both needs me and can't afford to feed me, so it's a giant catch 22. =\
But yes, by all means, feel free to make a request. I'll do it for free just because I like your posts! But please, don't have too high of expectations. Certain things, like making them hold objects or giving them faded scars, are extremely difficult to get right.
Thats a bummer, my friend - it's a tough one. I've been there with my parents, for a while.
My abuser is fine though ! lol...(my girlfriend).
I was thinking if it works out - of using them to illustrate my fiction (in books)... so fuck the 'free bit' - If I make money, we make money ! Deal ?
As I said, this isn't a 'tomorrow' thing, this is a couple of months at least..(I'm writing shit loads, but the editing is a ball ache! lol)
I have no idea about using the AI , except for those free generated thingy's - which aren't very good.
...All in good time my friend
Sounds mutually beneficial, I LIKE IT!.
Also, illustrating my fiction is exactly why I got into AI art in the first place. I am happy to help you learn how to use StableDiffusion and all of its associated models, happy to instruct you to just use Bing to make images in Dall-E3 instead, and happy to make them for you if you'd prefer. (Dall-E3 is easy, free, and impressively accurate, but I think I tend to bring a style with StableDiffusion that mostly cannot be found elsewhere)
I'd also advise you to download Obsidian onto your PC/laptop. I've used Google Docs for most of my writing, but it became overwhelming to try to organize it all. Then I bought a license for Scrivener, but it seems a bit daunting to learn how to use properly (and seems like something I will end up using to finalize my book). Then I found Obsidian, which is totally free, and got as much done with that in a day as I did with Scrivener in a month. It's just super-useful for organizing. 😉👍
