[h2]THE STARVING AI ARTISTS:[/h2]
As some of you may have noticed, I have been feeding my lore data to a few AI artists and getting back some crazy and cool images...



The process is pretty neat. I create a 'seed scene' image and feed it into the AI mind. I also add in a few keywords to 'push' the AI brain to look for art resources, techniques, tropes and colors upon which to build the resulting image.

For some fun, I fed the AI a photo of Mötley Crüe with the keywords 'war monger army of squirrels' and it spat out this:



ROFL... I particularly like the squirrel helmet.

So it took me about 10 hours to produce 20 images I actually wanted to use for the loading screen slides.

Here's one of a chipped squirrel with the glider backpack.



There are 19 more in the loading screens. I plan to rework the mission data structures to include mission related images ASAP!

Can't wait to see what comes out of 'dead techies crammed into a ventilation shaft'...

Stay squirrely and have fun!
