AI Generative Art

@Trike I hid the post with the music preview, but thanks for liking it. I did a bunch of work on the video tonight to make it smoother and remove the static images of the stares, replacing them with animated stares. I added some simple transitions and upscaled the latest preview to HD. It's still unsettling but it's supposed to be. It's not a happy song. 😄 But I think it is coming together. I made some more animations to add to it and I may make some more.

Just found this thread and I find it so much fun. I know there's always a lot of ups and downs, back and forths about AI art and the like, but I find what these programs can do personally inspires me to look at my own work in new ways. A lot of what's here is folks sharing modified screenshots, but I thought I'd share something a bit unique, a blast from the past as it were from a very old "competition" on the art boards from the days of old.

 

The prompt was to envision one (or more) of the City's namesake Heroes or Villains as their junior selves (aka: babies), and I was struck with the idea of Lord Recluse wandering around in a walker made of spider legs.

 

Here's a small thumbnail for slight reference to the original sketch I did over a decade ago: image.png.6e284e98cc472775b722514dde2fe1b0.png

 

And here's the re-imagined and enhanced update with AI, using my sketch as its base:

In the original I had tiny "toy" versions of the Freedom Phalanx being clobbered at his feet below with thought bubbles of expression (!! and >.> and the like), clearly the AI didn't capture that essence so we just got goopy spider gunk everywhere.

Awesome. And horrifying. 😆

It’s unsettling the same way all those movies with creepy little girls are.

I actually remembered why I wrote the song. At the time I had just purchased some software called Sibelius which is similar to Finale. This is the only song that I wrote using paper and pencil. I still have the notes. 

 

The singing voice is a Vocaloid called Gumi. She is normally quite melodic out of the box. I wanted to try making her singing discordant and off key. 

 

The character in the video is from a play by post RPG I was playing in. She has the superpower to not be noticeable. Kind of like Xandar from GI Joe. Or she could also be described as Dim in the same way Randall Flagg from the works of Stephen King could. Except poor Utsuko has no control over her power.

I found a new tool - https://www.immersity.ai

 

It turns 2D images into 3D motion or stereo images. I’ll have to upload some of the videos to YouTube, but here are the stereo pics. I think they look better when looked at in parallel (relaxing eyes by looking past the pic) versus crosseye, but it’s still pretty cool.

 

I tried a variety of different renders. I have a 1950s Kodak stereo camera so I’ve done a bit of experimenting over the years with stereo photography. (I even tried some in-game back on Live, which was way harder than it seems because characters and backgrounds aren’t static enough, but it worked.)

 

Anyway, for best results, use pics where the elements of the image are clearly separated into foreground, middle, and background.

 

To do parallel, it helps to kind of look through the screen and slightly downward.

This is the full song. I'll probably do some more work on it, but this is more or less how it will look. With new animations.

 

 

I like it.

I decided to try my villain posing as a hero, Dr. Rebellisch, next.

Results weren't that good, I'm omitting some. It didn't understand the "goggles over mask" part. No ice gloves, either. And rendering strained my rig much more than it did with other characters, depending on the model.

The anime model was the only one that actually gave him tech gloves. So I had the idea of using it to inpaint parts of other images. But it failed. Too bad.

New thing! Stable Diffusion 3!

 

It reportedly struggles with human anatomy, but it does text well.

 

25 cents for every mission my dark miasma alt forgets to use tar patch.

I’m old school - haven't attempted “AI” anything yet. THIS will absolutely drag me into it kicking and screaming! Amazing stuff. 

 

Is there a general consensus on what the best app to use for this is I can start looking into? 

 

Not sure how involved it is, but if anyone wants to try my forever main, “Starwind” -  I would love to see what comes out!! Starwind.jpg.d2d9ea0ba7268ccdefd4218fb6f4d5f8.jpg

 

I appreciate it!

Just pop a larger pic into Krea and see what it makes of it. Mess around with the sliders and presets.

These were all generated locally. I upgraded my computer RAM to 64GB. Last night I got a piece of software called OneTrainer, and I made a new LoRa of Blue with it.
