The king of the iron fist (enhanced edition or cheat edition?)

Well this is more of a journal, recently I was checking those ai generated pics (some of those I still can't believe are totally generated by the ai, even in the youtube tutorials I haven't seen something decent or close to the furry ai pics I have seen on Twitter), so yesterday I singed up and tried some of those ai tools. My first attempt was trying to make a Bowser but was a disaster (a funny one)  and even made a pic joke about that. 

Today I tried again with the Heihachi pic I posted yesterday, and I played around the ai apps with different parameters, so I obtained some interesting results (and other disasters too) but not a full ai picture like the ones around the web.

Since the ai algorithm work around combining layers from various art images posted on the internet, I did the same making layer, with the best results of the ai and my original artwork and... wow, I managed to make a great pic in my opinion. But still had to work around like 4 hours in "fusing" the pics manually in Photoshop, working in fixing details, better color, painting the areas that didn't match, trying to not lose my drawing style in the fusion and a lot of other fixes.

The conclusion is: I'm sorta conflicted with this ai tool, right now in the way I work  fusing my art with the ai pics is still taking a lot of time,  today I worked with it was because I felt excited but cant see me working with it all the time, but gonna practice with other pics  I already did.

Other conflicts are the loss of identity of my art style, if the art produced is considered my own because the ai took other styles from other artist, and a lot of other thoughts that crosses my mind about the ai art.

Anyway, here hot daddy Heihachi in a more realistic style, and I will take full credit because I did the original artwork and had to work a lot of hours to make him look good and not like a generated ai monster.
