How Artists Can Use AI for Reference Photos (Without Copying Anyone's Style)

Stop hunting for reference photos that don’t exist and start generating exactly what’s in your head. This isn't about "generating" finished art—it’s about building the perfect digital mannequin. In this video, I’m breaking down how I use ChatGPT, Gemini, and Midjourney to solve the #1 problem every artist faces: finding the exact reference image for a pose, creature, or lighting setup that doesn't exist in the real world. I’ll show you my "Froggy Nightmare" process, how to maintain your own likeness in portraits, and how to stay ethically grounded while using these tools.

The Ethics Problem We need to talk about it. AI models have valid consent issues, but using them as a digital mannequin for anatomy and light is like using a wooden pose-doll or a stock photo. I explain why I focus on "neutral" photorealistic prompts rather than copying an artist's style. 2. ChatGPT (DALL-E 3) If you have a weird sketch that no Google Search can match (like a flying muscular frog), ChatGPT is your best friend. I show you how I use Voice Mode to describe my dreams and turn a 2-minute doodle into a lighting reference. 3. Gemini (Nano Banana) Need to paint yourself or a friend in a specific setting? Gemini is surprisingly good at "keeping the same face" if you know the right prompt tricks. I walk through a self-portrait demo—from black tears to Billie Eilish vibes—and show you the "fails" you should expect. 4. Midjourney For the artists who want total control. I demonstrate how I use Midjourney to use "style references" and refine my sketches into exactly what I want.
