I haven't had to use it much before but this is gpt being able to do comic book pages is new. Because in many comic book pages, that little tail on the bubbles can point in any direction, it's lke when the AI used to have extra fingers. Often there are extra tails or the tail is pointed to the wrong person. I expect as they realize people like making comic book pages, that will get fixed

Richard Dadd was not a Dadaist althought that's a good idea. I should bring one of them in. I don't think it's one of Dadd's paintings. For some reason his paintings look a little like collages to me. Lol, ok no Lovecraft paintings or you'll be Dadd's roommate at the asylum.

I imagine so. I did manage to airbrush a fix using GIMP once, but mostly it is more time and effort than I both have and want to invest in creating images just for fun

oooh! That place looks really spooky! No, he wasn't there. If he had been I don't think he would have done fairy fantasy images. HIs paintings would have been a lot diarker!

An Artist confined to a psychiatric hospital creatibg great art sounds somewhat Lovecraftian! Have you img-to-img paintibgs of him for the background, here?
@CaylaCatz · Jun 7, 2026
You want paintings of Lovecraft in the background? Or paintings of Lovecraft's worlds? Or paintings of Dadd's works?
