We drew at FUSION in Albuquerque:

KREA

I merely "chatted" with BLENDER to generate an intersection in a city scene:

I used the instructions from my 3D from Gemini 2.5 blog post to use MCP to get Claude Desktop to talk to Blender -- CHATTING up BLENDER.

Drawn at Art Buddies in Albuquerque:

My original drawing

I uploaded the above drawing to KREA to generate various AI variations of my drawing (using the Mechanical Figure Sketches model, I think):

KREA

This AI result

is very similar to the original

KREA

I like this AI variation as well,

even though it is not as faithful to the original drawing

I like the above result as well. I did a reverse search using Google Lens, but did not find any images that were too similar to my AI drawings. Am I generating ORIGINAL AI ART from my drawing style? It just seems that there must be someone else generating similar images, since the underlying AI model is so generic:

I then animated the above image in KREA (with WAN 2.1). The AI result was not pretty:

KREA (with WAN 2.1):

EzGIF

prompt: "dancing"

I also trained an AI model in KREA, for the video generation program WAN 2.1, based on 34 drawings from my book -- KRRRL book drawings. These are the same 34 drawings from my book that I used to train for the Flux image generation model. And the result was even uglier when I animated my AI figure:

KREA (with WAN 2.1):

prompt: "dancing"

with the AI model KRRRL book drawings

IF AI could "segment" my drawings, maybe it could also make SPINNING ANIMATIONS. This is probably possible, but not accessible to me just yet.

I refried my favorite AI image, by running that AI result through KREA again, using a different model -- Entangled Knots -- and then coloring it with Petalica Paint:
