A while back I made a post that was almost entirely pictures—a set of AI-generated visuals to correspond with the lyrics to Radiohead's song "Fitter Happier." I got a lot of compliments about it from readers; maybe one day I will try it again! https://www.ruins.blog/p/fitter-happier-illustrated

Great. I've been planning a comic strip version of a short story I wrote, in series called Experimenting with styles. I'm going to check yours out now

That's excellent, Terry. I've been thinking of making a graphic novel out of a screenplay I did some years ago, but I have to figure out how to do it before I can start.

That sounds good, Ben. You mean the planning part or the execution part? I'm pretty sure there is software that can do the heavy lifting

It's the execution part. It's already written, so just figuring out how it should look--Black and White? Realism? Stick people? But I do like a challenge, which is why I wrote a screenplay in the first place.

I'm an avid reader of graphic novels, so I've come across the whole range of types of art. If I may throw my thoughts into the mix, I think the best art kind is what fits the story and what's within your capability.

I totally agree with that. I don't have all the tools to hand draw it, or else I would, or at least give it a shot. I haven't drawn in years, but I used to be pretty good at it. I just have to find the right software I suppose.
