#12 Master generators!! 1.2k followers!! Wow, thank you all so, so, so much!!! I hardly have words to describe the feeling. It has been so incredibly motivating thinking so many people really do see and hear these, the light and feelings I want to share, on so many screens in front of so many people across the world. Thinking about it, like, being real... is still hard to imagine.
Some of that imagining might have gone into making the character seen here I'm still developing. As a digital consciousness who can appear on electronic billboards and displays across the city and see it through security cameras, she knows more about the real world than many of the beings passing by in it... Yet she can't touch it with hands made of light, or understand how love feels with a heart made of code.
Imagine living in your own tiny reality, observing the motions and lives of others from behind a screen, wanting nothing more than for the people on the other side to feel your love and know you, but being unable to reach them with anything more than your words and images...
Yeah.
"If you feel a warmth tonight, know it's me saying, I love you in light."
I'd like to shout-out, well, everyone, but right now @EannDealcroix, @ShePretends, @JunkerScrap, @Regular209, @RisingV, @CitronLegacy and @Mrsmit9811194 for all of the recent interest in my OC characters and pushing me to put more effort into developing and sharing them. Making images and hoping people react to them so I can maintain a ranking is really time-consuming. But the real creativity of creating something, or rather someone, who lives beyond an image or two as a story in shared imagination is really the peak of creative fun, and something I want to do more of, even if my regular image posts lag at times trying to balance it all.
Character art is still my favorite thing to gen- it was wanting original art for my characters and not something just 'borrowed' from a random web searches for my TTRPG games that got me to pursue AI art in the first place. It's still amazing to think back on a little under a year ago now, when I first discovered civit. My 1-year anniversary is coming up fast! I need to prepare something so I'm not writing it on the same day I'm supposed to release it, like I'm totally not doing right now...
Thanks again, and a million times more for stopping by, and I hope you do like the song! The songs are my biggest passion here, even if they're less well known than my images are.
Somewhere out in the world, a screen is saying: I LOVE YOU ALL! in light 💓✨
