This image was created by AI and myself. The dragon did not have any wings or fiery breath. I had taken a picture of a plastic dragon and used those wings to create his. I also digitally drew in the breath of fire.I moved the heron from the side of the river to the rock in the middle of the stream and cloned the original out. Added more depth to the mountains with shadows, upped the color. Used tint on the dragon's scales to make them shine. Outlined every thing ! The castle mountains, flowers, bushes, rocks in the river and the dragon were all individually cut out, repasted and individually embossed to make them stand out. Added more blue to the sky and added blue tint to the river. Those are the things I can remember working on. ..............People say AI is easy but I had to work hard to change the original to my view. A lot of images were created of this scene which didn't work! When I finally found a scene I liked I had to do all of the above to present my vision. I hope you enjoy! Thank you so much for stopping by! :o) Helvi
Post Type: Mixed Media Digital Art Digital Composition | | Computer Generated | This scene was created by me and AI. I embossed everything. I tinted the dragons scales to give them a shiny appearance. I added more color to the scales on the head making them brighter. I gave the dragon wings from another dragon image I had. I outlined the flowers and gave them more color. I gave the rocks, mountain and castle more shadows to create more depth. The heron was traced, cut and saved so I could move him from the shore and place him on the rock, I cloned the original out. The teeth of the dragon were brightened to stand out. I copied the teeth so I could place them over the firey breath which I also created. I added more blue to the water and the sky. People say AI is easy, but for me a lot of work has to be done on what AI created, so you can see my vision, not to mention the mistakes it makes.
