This goes so hard its unreal.

Well you did a great job so I hope you keep making them

I will be forever grateful if you do a death Korps of kreig one.

... The Commissar is pleased! 😎

I think the Sisters Of Battle animation shows the progression both the AI and bstuartTI have made in this few months. For AI it is terrifying. For bstuartTI it is impressive. Please more, especially of the Sisters Of Battle! Thank you.

Thanks man! I'm glad you liked it. I definitely want to add my own spin on things while still respecting the history/lore of the universe. So much to learn, and while the AI tools won't allow for perfect renditions yet, my goal is to try and stay somewhat faithful. I'll have to check out the stories in the Rogue Trader era for sure :)

This. At best let's call it a solid alternate take on x and y. Cos after all even the official GW artwork and styles vary in exacting canon. I actually liked the slightly slimmer SM look... gives the idea that the armour actually allows a reasonable range of movement, agility and speed while still being very protective and powered... After all SM tech is the best mankind has and while armour can only be so good, cover and movement are, like now, advised as the best protection etc. It's in keeping with the more recent, longer and leaner Primaris look tbh. Likewise the monster foes... assuming Tyrannids, is there any hard and fast rule they need all be alike in their forms or have two tone colour schemes? After all, it's also canon that the Hive Fleets evolve very fast and are incredibly diverse in make up and acquisition of biomass (nm operating with little contact, if ever, tens and hundreds of light years apart) I like it, a good showcase for 40K while being a little different yet remaining within lore... which if you read some of the non SM books, the Imperium alone is mind bogglingly vast and varied in just about all aspects bar veneration of the Emperor. Some Imperial worlds are actually pretty decent places to be, even for the lower classes.

More to come!

That’s really good feedback. Thanks!

@@bstuartTI 1:44 the Astartes are pretty much perfect. Any imperfections could be explained with an original chapter. Honestly once you have stability figured out it will be amazing. Great start though, where did you learn how to do this?

....right

It doesn’t look like crap. What a stupid comment.

It takes a LOT of generations to find a usable one. I have 2 unlimited accounts and it can take 100-200 generations to find 1 that I'm satisfied with. Starting with higher res images also helps. I also use TOPAZ AI to upscale instead of the built in upscale in runway. Glad you liked it!

Thanks! Yah it's really exciting how fast they're developing :) Can't wait for 2024 to see how far I can push it.

Thanks! I was actually thinking of doing a parody next, you read my mind :) I may do something like that after I finish my current project. Should be done by end of week.

Thanks! I’ll definitely be trying to improve the consistency and accuracy of the character designs as I make more shorts. Thanks for the suggestions :)

lol I like the hand-wavium plot device :D. My current project there's a lot less noticeable gear mis-matching. It's still there slightly but a lot better. It just takes a LOT more time to do... Over the next few months this problem will likely completely disappear as soon as the tools improve.

I think these things will be coming over the next 12 months or so, which will allow creators to get the kind of dynamic action you're looking for, I'd do it if it were possible :). Current AI workflows start with an image and then the motion models attempt to 'hallucinate' motion from the static picture. It often takes hundreds of rerolls until something passable comes out. In the future, I think the models will begin to understand 3-dimensionality and motion much better, and we'll be able to get the kind of dynamism of traditional cinema. It's still early days with these tools, but def excited about future possibilities. Thanks for your comment, I agree with you :)

Unfortunately, It’s a tool limitation right now. Consistent clothing/outfits is a holy grail with AI that we haven’t quite solved yet. There are some solutions but they increase production time exponentially, and this short was a test to see how fast I could make something in 1 day. So it wasn’t my intention, but it will get better as the technology evolves :)

Yah the tools are imperfect and very limiting right now - this is the worst they’ll be. The details will only get better. But it’s fun to play around with them even if it’s early :)

After a quick search I totally see that, very good point. I'm just starting to get into 40k lore, so much to learn, but super fascinatingly. one of my goals as the AI tools get better, allow for better details, is to make more lore accurate representations in future vids.

Charlie Ryan - An Uncommon World, it's up on artlist :) I remixed it down to fit my story. Glad you liked it!

This is a brand new channel I’ve started, so any engagement helps hehe :)

I use artlist.io for all my tracks, then I remixed it down for the short film. Lots of great musicians on there :)

the voice was spot on tho
