[If you are not interested in reading, then the short version: I added some Images & a short story to the "AI-Image" Category and I will now start doing image/sets again, but I'm still unsure which model to use.]
Ladies and Gentlemen,
As always, feel free to skip ahead to what interests you most.
I want to take a moment to share some reflections with you because you're the ones I can really talk to about this, and it's been quite an emotional journey for me, to be honest.
Over the past week, I've dedicated around 14 to 16 hours each day to my project, and now I have some initial results to share, though my feelings about them are mixed, to say the least.
I must admit, I'm not entirely satisfied. There's still a significant amount of work ahead, particularly in terms of improving the dataset itself.
When I first saw the new results, I was shocked and felt like all my efforts had been in vain. It hit me hard, and I spent half the day in bed feeling pretty depressed.
Since then, I've made numerous adjustments, and while it's starting to resemble what I envisioned more closely again, I still have reservations, especially regarding the changes in art style and the increased randomness I've noticed in style consistency.
Perhaps I just need more time to get used to it, having only used the new model for a few hours now.
Ideally, I'd like to complete the model entirely before moving on, but as a content creator, I also need to produce actual content, right?
Additionally, I've run out of time in several ways. Firstly, you've all been waiting patiently for quite some time now. Secondly, my "vacation" from my daytime job is over, so I can't dedicate as much time to this daily anymore. And lastly, the mental toll of creating a dataset from scratch is immense, especially when you can predict how long each step will take; it can be incredibly frustrating.
For instance, a seemingly simple edit like adjusting the size of areolae typically takes around 1 minute and 40 seconds per image, with some more complex edits taking up to 5 minutes. If you extrapolate this to around 2 minutes per image and consider the roughly 500 images still ahead of me... well, its roughly 17 hours and 30min. So you can see how daunting it can be.
Furthermore, instead of the planned 100 images, I ended up creating around 500 because a quick test with 100 "old images" revealed it wasn't enough.
Version 1 of the dataset contains approximately 300 images, but even those are far from perfect and require additional touch-ups, as listed below. Nevertheless, I felt it necessary to proceed with this trial.
One of the most remarkable and frustrating aspects of this process is realizing that once everything is completed, the same dataset might only take a quarter of the time it's taking now. It's mind-blowing to think that I've achieved this much in just a week, even though it's far from perfect.
Redraw approximately 250 eyebrows, especially those covered by hair.
Redraw around 120 hip/torso lines.
Fix about 150 ears.
Correct about 350 hairstyles for unrealistic behavior.
Adjust around 300 collarbones/sidelocks.
Address the axillary fold in every image (important).
Reintroduce some body/skin details; things are flatter than intended, but removing them was easier than redrawing everything.
Add the additional 200 images I've already created.
Expand the dataset and address any issues that arise along the way.
In terms of content, I've added AI Images, which I've tested in various ways and found to be quite impressive compared to previous iterations. It's a bit embarrassing, but I even created a small "Dojinshi" with a randomly generated AI character because I wanted to have some fun and fulfill a long-time dream of mine. It's my first attempt at something like this, so I hope you enjoy it despite my lack of experience.
I'm currently processing the updated version of the image correction tool I shared a couple of days ago, this time with the updated dataset. It'll take about 6 more hours, I reckon. In theory, it should be even better and more compatible with my work than the previous version.
After that, I'll start by creating & testing the character "Anna Nishikinomiya" to see how she works/looks with the new model. If the results aren't satisfactory, I'll revert to the previous model for my next image set and try to utilize the image correction version 2.
I also need to attend to tasks I've neglected over the past few days: cleaning the apartment, eating some real food, taking a bath [I did shower tho!], and maybe catching up on some sleep before work tommorow.
Thank you for listening to my ramblings. Your support means a lot to me. <3
