General Discussion / Re: Finding models for stories
« Last post by EllenShaw on Yesterday at 09:32:43 PM »Are you looking for pictures to illustrate your stories or just to inspire the description of characters? Places like DeviantArt have a lot of content that you might find useful, both AI generated and stills and clips from professional videos. You can also use AI tools to generate images if you know the sort of thing you're after.
I don't tend to illustrate my stories but my characters are quite often based on people I've known over the years. I would say that my descriptions of at least half of my main characters are based on women I've known at one time or another, although almost none of them have met IRL and none of them, to the best of my knowledge, fight or behave like the characters in my stories. A fair amount more are based on people I had a chance to study (work colleagues, other guests at hotels where I've stayed etc.) and some are simply invented.
