Recently, I have seen many beautiful real-life photos on the Internet that have been turned into comics. They are very amazing and full of cuteness. So I went to find it and found an open source project that converts photos to comics - AnimeGANv2. There is a project address at the end of the article. I like to remember to bookmark and like it.
