AI Disclaimer
I do not believe that uploading the raw output from a text-to-image AI constitutes good art. At least, I cannot see myself doing that and claiming it as "my work" with a straight face, no matter the amount of time I put into refining the prompt.
The dividing line for me is somewhere in the amount of work put into the image after the AI is done with it, and with the amount of direct control you have over the resulting image.
This is marked as AI-art because an AI had a substantial hand in the creation of this artwork, but I also believe that it has sufficient human effort put into it that I can call it mine and upload it without shame.
Basically, I think of this piece like scrapbooking.
I am aware that many models have been trained through the unethical use of protected work, and I am aware that AI can be used for unethical ends, I do not however consider AI-art-generators to be unethical in total.
Please don't use my comment-section to inform me about- or discuss the validity of AI art.
Ok? Ok.

The Making of
This is not a recent piece, but I only just remembered that I might upload it here. It also does not have the same amount of effort as Tasha or Cindah. This is based on one of the first pieces I put together using AI.
The base images were made using Bluewillow, with the character having used a HeroForge model and an Artbreeder avatar before.
Unfortunately, I do not remember exactly how many different images come together into this one, I *think* the scarf came from a separate image. But after cutting and pasting there are the established features of the character that are photoshopped in. Such as tinting the hair, desaturating the skin, adding the green eyes, the glyph on her cheek, and the technic league pin on her scarf. Oh, and her shadow duplicate of course.

I feel this was merely passable, but it loked better as a token than the exterme closeup I had used up until that time - in a campaign where all the other characters have a bust or more on their tokens.

More about Amelysh
Amelysh is my first and current character for an Iron Gods campaign GMed by Bengan248 in Pathfinder 1E.
She is a Fetchling Rogue/Shadowdancer, a native to Numeria and eager to explore the dangerous ancient crashed starships of the land for profit, excitement and "Choosy bits" - useful, valuable or beautiful technological artifacts. She is quite childish, enjoying pranks and often not taking things seriously, despite this she is also incredible shrewd, finding use for all manner of junk. She takes pride in her skill as a thief, but she steals only what she needs to survive. She is a stealth artist and an acrobat, moving quickly around in combat and disappearing from view, dipping in and out of the shadow plane and fighting in tandem with her own shadow.
