So I started using Civitai back in 2023. But just to generate images and nothing else. I would like to make dumb fanart and character designs. And sometimes the characters I wanted as models weren't there so I would just improvise on it since I thought it'd be very complicated cuz I didn't know how it works cuz I'm not a full expert on AI stuff... I'm still not. But as it turned out, it was surprisingly very easy. I made my first LoRA back in June just for a funny. Yet, I didn't think it would blow up and be used as much as it was. Then suddenly, I felt the urge to make more. To earn more Blue Buzzes to make more. I'm busy grinding for buzzes by liking and posting images to have enough to train them. Then I found colab which was a cheaper option, but the results weren't fully there. But these are good to make. And overtime while making datasets, I kept finding easier ways to get images like scanning through videos and screenshoting them and cropping them. While it gets tedious, as long as people like it, I'm fine. And I'm really surprised that these blew up as much as they did. Like, the most popular one I have is the first one I made. Talk about beginner's luck.
So... I want to thank you all for liking and using my LoRAs for the past few months. Can't wait to see what other weird things I make ones of.
Happy New Years, everyone.
