AI Studio Ghibli “deleted scenes” (not really)

[EricJ]

Just de-lurking:

Got feet wet into playing around with AI image generators—Yes, I know, “Tragic fraud”, “Insult to hardworking artists”….Hey, I’m only geeking around with apps for creativity’s sake, since it’s good screenwriting practice, and I could even “illustrate” a few children’s stories I never got to finish.

Through trial and error, I managed to latch onto KlingAi, and, um…DANG.
So far, it’s not only been one of the more on-point and less confusing apps to use, it also manages to replicate Disney, Pixar, and even Studio Ghibli styles with plausible accuracy.

Playing around with the latter, and dumping some of my crazier ideas onto DeviantArt where they wouldn’t be noticed, I created a set of….LESSER known moments from Ghibli’s canon.

(The engine seemed to know most of the characters, but kept guessing at Nausicaa, for some reason.)

Wannabe by Luca DeBus just started running on Comics Kingdom, last week .. but there's a backlog of over a years' worth of strips posted there (though, one may need to be a paid CK subscriber to read back that far).

The strip -- dealing with three young college graduates trying to figure out their lives -- hits more than it misses, IMO; I've happily added it to my daily reading list.

Well that's a good and pointed one for sure!
