🍂 Golden Autumn
All characters are 18+
(By anonymous stableboy. Oail on canvais. 1896.)
For mageboys it's essential to have attractive bodies, it's not a question of vanity but absolute necessity, as the lust of anyone who sees their beautiful forms is converted directly into points of magical energy for the mage.
Nowadays, the combination of a youthful feminine face, long hair and a nicely toned torso with round pecs is the ideal form many mages work towards, combining bodybuilding with rejuvenating baths and potions.
And great mages only grow more and more attractive over centuries, so ancient mages must look like some kind of angels directly from heaven 😜
What do you think? 😄
Man he could put a spell on me!!
I still have no idea what 'AI generated art' is.

Well, it means that I didn't paint it... There are text-to-image generators, like, you enter "banana" and it gives you a picture of a banana, a new picture that never existed in the world before. Basically it can do that because it had analyzed various pictures of bananas, scanned their features, so it learned to make completely new images that look like bananas... Of course not just bananas, it scanned millions of different things that took many weeks of work for whole datacenters, so it can generate things like muscles, hair, forest, jewelry etc.
Unfortunately it's very bad at combining all these things into a good final picture, one can try but the results are very mediocre and way too simple... So need a lot of photoshop skills to create more layers of complexity, put everything together to make something more enjoyable like this one. So I didn't paint this, but still kind of put it together I guess...

That's very beautiful. His clothes are beautiful. I love Golden Autumn.
Thank you so much!! I'm very happy you liked, also just noticed I did his shoulder wrong... or should I keep him armless? Hmm, an armless mage sounds interesting and I think gives more ideas for a story of why he decided to learn magic 😅
Wow, its look so beautiful. Galadriele the white elven)) fantastic.
Very glad you liked 😊
Wonderful work! AI is sometimes unpredictable - it can produce heavenly beauty or demons from the underworld.
You make it sound like AI can just produce a picture like this from a simple text prompt and all you need is luck... I don't think it's possible to write some long text prompt, describing all these details, and ever get a picture like this even after 1000 rerolls...
Well, theoretically maybe you can, if you use a custom model full of scans of great artists who made artworks very similar to this, then you use their names in the prompt, but then you basically get a stolen copy of an existing artwork as a result... AI is known for stealing whole chunks of existing artworks and if you've never seen those artworks that doesn't make your generated picture "new" or "unique". If your text-to-image picture looks good, it's almost 100% "stolen" by the algorithm. "Stealing" in this case means the algorithm transferred a huge chunk of an existing artwork into the result and that's the only reason your text-to-image looks good.
Me, I don't want to generate a picture that's just a randomly mangled copy of someone's existing artwork, so I don't use custom models and I don't use artist names or words like "Artstation"... I just make something like a generic guy, then start changing things with simple worlds like "long blond hair", "muscled chest", "ornamented shoulder paddings", "golden cloak" etc, blending everything together in Photoshop, just small parts at a time... This guy didn't even have a forest behind him or long hair. I mean, AI is great as part of the workflow but it certainly didn't "produce" this picture.

My dear Yuni! I have some experience in creating images in AI. I have had different pictures. Both with reference to famous works, and using random images, and just generating plain text without any reference.
Some of the work you may have seen on DA. I have a lot of images. Some time ago you liked my picture of a beautiful boy on a broomstick made for Halloween.

Yeah, I remember the broomstick boy and the AI images 😁
Adorable work! I love you works!
Thank you 😄
Thank you so much for your kind words! As an artist, my goal is to capture the essence of each character in a way that resonates with my audience....XD
I was thinking he's a mage, in the world i'm working on they're not far from the elves in terms of beauty and have magical ways to preserve and alter themselves to their, or rather other people's, liking XD Since I doubt they spend 24/7 in front of a mirror and all that beauty is mostly for others to enjoy in the end... :P

Can I ask him to take me home?
Amazing work! As always!... but OMG I love his face so much! I can't close my mouth... I'm speechless!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
