The day I swore off AI filters for good

I finally stopped using those quick AI filters to finish my drawings, and my actual skill is finally getting better. It was a shortcut that made my work look good fast, but it left me feeling like a fraud. Now my sketches have more real life in them.

Never thought I'd agree, but your experience with ditching AI tools really hits home.

Used to swear by those AI filters for my sketches, thought they made me look pro overnight. But then I started noticing my own lines getting lazy, like I was letting the tech do the heavy lifting. Your point about feeling like a fraud rings so true, it's like you're cheating yourself out of real growth. Now I'm trying to put in the hours with just a pencil and paper, and it's tough but way more satisfying. Honestly, your post might have just convinced me to ditch them for good too.

Exactly @felixd51, I felt that HARD. Ditching those tools and grinding with just a sketchbook made my work feel truly MINE again.
