Trike

I went to my monthly eye doctor appointment today where they dilated my right eye and then I watched the solar eclipse so I kept looking at it wondering if I messed up my eyes. 😁

I ran it through Krea to get this.

Is that upscaled? Looks like a regular screenshot. Or was this meant for the costume design thread?

One of my (many) pulp heroes, the rocket-powered Bullette. As we know, Krea LOOOVES wrinkles, so much so that it put them in her helmet. I kind of dig the weird art deco thing it did with her hat but it's not the character, so I tried to get it to calm down. This is the best I could get. So then I took the prompt over to Bing and it said, "Hold my beer." 😁 Those are the tips of the iceberg. This one, though, isn't exactly right, but it's in the ballpark. Or at least the parking lot of the ballpark. Why it gave her green hair is a mystery. If only the helmet were right, this would be a contender, weird backpack and all. It's still pretty pulpy, though.

Is that the Mystic pattern on the legs? Looks cool, no pun intended.

I heart this.

I’ve always liked your Cyberman design. Super evocative of that style. I just watched Shin Ultraman on YouTube last night, so that whole aesthetic was on my mind. Those are the same experiments I did with the screenie of Badger Boy running from Eochai upthread. Letting Krea go wild is nightmare fuel, honestly. I’m surprised it didn’t smooth out the jaggies between the black and white on the chest. That’s one thing it usually fixes. I wonder if it was interpreting the chest as metal, therefore reflecting the background.

Super Yeti Krea Enhanced screenshot I took the auto-generated prompt from Krea and pasted it into Bing AI.

Hip dysplasia can be brutal.

The thesaurus is key. Flattop, buzz cut, Army haircut…

That first one reminds me of the bicycle helmets you see in Japan. https://images.app.goo.gl/shmyy7t3n7HpZZaf8

Your original costume is amazing. I’m tickled Krea changed his powerset to Spines.

Tried one with a bio. It correctly read the name but nothing else. So weird. One and done for Kit-Bash. Ran Badger Boy through twice. Not as good as Mighty Lad/Man but acceptable. First time through it thought the claw emblem was the letter A but it didn't come out A-shaped, so I specified "stylized paw print". But then it spelled his name wrong, for the first time messing up one of those. Wacky. ...and I'm all out of credits for today.

I found a screenie with a sign. Krea's auto-prompt correctly read it as "Tsing Guns" and I tried to change it to "Trike Mods" to no avail. No idea why it didn't likewise read "Ramen" on the other sign.

Couple of cyberpunk ladies. First, Avatarex. (Hero.) I thought this would be quite a challenge for Krea but nope. This is the one and only render I did, because I think it looks great. Next, Global Warmer. (Villain) This one took five tries. It kept giving her blonde hair until I finally went in and specified she was bald. Then it kept messing up her face and head. The glasses were hit or miss. The last try it got her overall look right but left off the glasses and messed up her face. So I cut the glasses off a previous render, stuck them on this one, then went in with a tiny 2-pt eraser to clean up the edges. Looks okay.

This one looks really soft-focus to me, so I ran it through Krea. The result is quite good. Edit: gave the screenshot a go, too, and it really looks good, hands aside.

Were the prompts the same despite the different looks? Seems like the anime ones came closest to the game toon for some reason.

Eh, who needs to sleep anyway? #NightmareFuel

You don’t need a screenshot. There’s only one option, clicking “Enabled” or “Disabled”. Neither has any effect, which means it’s broken. Just revert it back to the way it was, which was perfectly fine and 100% intuitive — not to mention functional.

Here’s Water Guardian again (see the bottom of page 19 for more). The Bing AI prompt I used was a stripped-down version of her bio. Words like “kupuo” and “Hawai’i water goddess” with the addition of “kelp skirt” and “abalone shell top”. The word “shell” seemed to confuse it, so I took it out. “Opalescent” didn’t add anything and “pearlescent” got the content warning for some reason. (I’m guessing asking for a woman wearing a string of pearls necklace will likewise be verboten. Rule 34 ruins everything nice.) Anyway, I just took out the adjectives and let abalone stand on its own. Some of these are amusing but some are genuinely great.

That’s what it did to Gato Blanco. As you can see from the pics where I have the name, Krea *can* read despite scrambling letters in most enhanced renders, so I wonder if it saw “gato” and decided “Yeah, cat ears!” When I looked at the auto-prompts with the names (because I was shocked Krea got it right) it’s called out in a very specific way. Something like /*Mighty Man*/, so I’m going to try adding a sign in a render when I get home from work tonight.

It’s pretty hit or miss. The farther away the character the worse it comes out. Plain backgrounds clearly help a lot.
