If you haven't heard, I've been making an Everly Heights web comic since last fall, Mr. Matheson's Arithme-TIPS. In this video, I'll share my webcomic creation workflow to send you from pose to panel at the speed of inspiration! Learn to accelerate your comic art process using cutting-edge tools and techniques as I create the latest webcomic for Mr. Matheson's Arithme-TIPS.
In this video, we explore:
Posemy.art: Create drawing references in seconds with pre-made models and scenes for easy character blocking and set design.
AI-Powered Art Generation: Use Stable Diffusion and Flux to bring your comic panels to life.
Human Creativity at the Core: While AI is involved, human creativity and storytelling techniques remain central.
Script to Rough Layout: Use ChatGPT for outlining, then refine it through manual editing. See the process of creating a rough visual draft in Photoshop with a custom template for an aged comic look.
Integrating AI: Posemy.art exports depth maps, Canny edges, and images for use as guides in Stable Diffusion.
Multiple Outputs: Export character, OpenPose, and canny templates for Stable Diffusion Forge. Learn "sandblasting" for refining posed figures.
Enhancing Visual Quality: Achieve high-quality, print-ready comics with a two-step upscaling process using Topaz Photo AI and Gigapixel AI. Learn denoising, lighting adjustments, color balancing, face recovery, and creative upscaling techniques.
Final Touches: Add word balloons, titles, and text using custom-made fonts in Adobe Illustrator.
Whether you're a seasoned webcomic artist or just starting out, this video offers invaluable insights into leveraging the latest technology to dramatically speed up your webcomic creation workflow without sacrificing your artistic vision.
