Anyone who’s spent time with AI apps like Stable Diffusion know how incredibly biased they are toward portraiture, which basically means good luck using it to create even a one-off in which your character(s) need to look away from the camera.

I’ve spent countless hours fighting Fooocus on that point alone for every project I’ve created with it thus far, and I am really fuckin’ tired of it. So, I decided to play its game with a couple of POV renders before I finally set the tech aside for now.

Not surprisingly, I had the faces and their expressions done in a fraction of the time it usually takes me when doing angled camera setups – As in 3-5 passes instead of 30-40.

The two pieces are called Strangled Startup and Spring Break Strangle, and they’re both on my AI Art page.
