The Nightshift at SDM Transport Industries

>> New course link in profile <<

Most of my favorite work happens late at night, when the noise of the world shuts down and all that’s left is quiet focus and the glow of the desk lamp. These pieces are from a series I call The Nightshift at SDM Transport Industries...and they’re also part of what I create during those long, still hours for my students.

Access to my new AI Image-Crafting course (The Worldbuilding edition) is only open for a few more days. Once you’re in, you’ll have lifetime access...so you can revisit the lessons again and again, at your own pace (coffee optional). As part of an upcoming bonus package, you’ll also receive a fair-use image collection: artwork I make during my own “nightshifts,” offered freely for you to use, remix, and build upon in your own projects. These ones grew out of a Post-production effects with evening light lesson...it’s nearly finished, and it’s been a blast. The link is in my profile. 

The nights don’t last forever, and neither does this registration window. Sign up now, and let your own midnight imagination start building new worlds.

My illustrations are made with my own custom diffusion models, MJ moodboards, SD/MJ rendering, plus painting, touch-ups, and assemblage in Photoshop. Custom textures, custom effects, and filters from Topaz Studio…blah blah blah. My own unique cocktail of analog, digital, and diffusion (AI) techniques.
