Locked in yesterday and finished the painting part of my leafhopper comic. Next…to outline these all in ink, and then add lots of text in illustrator! I managed to ruin my big guy on the left with wet hair but luckily I’d already scanned him in!

@entsocamerica.bsky.social using AI generated images in its award presentations at the Eastern Branch is really, really embarrassing, especially for a society that focuses on scicomm and science illustration through conference workshops. Really making me reconsider renewing my membership this year.

I would never use AI to create art because I hold myself to this really high standard of not doing things that Elon Musk would approve of and taking a cowardly shortcut to a meaningless end, yet still expecting people to be impressed…yeah. sounds like something Elon Musk would be all about.
