Hello Hunters! 👋
I'm Josh, a father of 3 under 4y/o, ex-chef/cook of 18 years, mostly self-taught dev & I guess now *actually* an indie maker. For the past few years I've been trying to transition from kitchen work to a job in tech. For the past couple of months I've been working on Dad Can't Draw, an AI-powered coloring page generator. I'm super excited to share it with you all today!
It's a simple concept, but as my very first "real" project (also first Product Hunt launch) & I'm quite proud of it.
Here's how it works:
Each new account gets 10 free generations to try it out.
On the dashboard you will be greeted by a prompt: "What would you like to color today?"
Simply type in the subject that you would like to color, for example, my 3y/o son's favorite: "a dinosaur driving a truck"
Wait a few seconds
& Viola! A custom coloring page tailored to your request
The generations are not perfect & it may take a couple tries or some re-wording to get exactly what you want, but it makes for a fun interaction seeing what surprises will be generated next. This is being worked on & will only continue to get better. I'm also currently working on adding to the feature set, including the ability to generate multiple images at the same time, generate coloring pages from your own uploaded images, image post-processing, etc.
Anyway, I look forward to any feedback you all may have & would also LOVE to see any creations that you/your little ones come up with.
Thanks & take care!
@joshmccoydev what a journey from the kitchen to coding! Dad Can’t Draw 🎨 sounds like a fun way to spark creativity for kids and parents alike. It’s impressive to see your first project come to life, especially one that brings such joy. Excited to see where your tech adventure takes you next! 😊👨👧👦
All the best Josh!
@joshmccoydev hey Josh, great tool! Love it! But I was wondering, what is in the background? Is this a simple prompt or have you created something unique?
@joshmccoydev Great story ! It is very inspiring what you did . I think that I can help you bring this product to the next level and discuss certain drawbacks with it too. DM me on telegram @dhananjaybuidl and I would love to connect further !
This is so awesome! My daughter always asks me to draw stuff, and for the life of me, I can’t do it better than 1st grade level😂 I’ll definitely surprise my daughter with a custom colouring book!
