Image Improvements | Announcement #7 (Patreon)

Hi everyone! After 2 months, I finally feel ready to announce more improvements!

This time they will focus on quality. Since February, I have been very focused on videos, and I received good feedback regarding their quality; although my intention was to continue to see if I could achieve longer durations, I had to set that aside for now to focus on images at the request of several members, and also because it had been a long time since I last tried to make a leap in quality.

Anyway, there are 3 essential things that, separately, might not have the same impact, and although this was originally going to be applied only to multiple-character commissions, in the end, I will be using it for all types of commissions.

1. A better upscaler that adds definition/detail to edges and many elements like jewelry, clothing, hair, etc., of the character; it also reduces blur.

2. General correction of character faces to improve facial expressions.

3. Color correction, so that each image looks sharper. This can be adjusted so it isn't too intense, although I find the color intensity to be very well-balanced.

I also want to mention that it is viable to apply these 3 improvements to every single image, but that impacts my commission time by almost 40% more; however, it is time that I can work on reducing. Therefore, for now, I will only apply all 3 directly to multiple-character commissions because they have a noticeable degradation

As for single-character commissions, I will be applying the upscaler and color correction starting with the next commissions in April. The last 4 commissions have 1 or 2 of these improvements applied; that also explains the delay in those posts a little bit. From May onwards, I will begin applying expression correction to images that need it, while I continue receiving your feedback and getting more organized lol

For now, I don't consider it necessary to reduce the number of images or make you choose whether you want the improvements or not, because that wouldn't make much sense

Anyway, in the zip file, you will find the examples (all, color, face, upscaler)

Thank you all for your patience, kind comments, and suggestions to keep improving!
