Prompt: a distortion in the fabric of space and time, photo of a hand which devolves and transitions into twisted fractal dimensions at the edges --ar 4:3

I tried to do subtle, but I guess I'm just not the subtle type :)

I'm really bad these kinds of technical challenges, but it was fun to try.

Ever dipped your hand into a pot of heated mozzarella?

not THAT hot!
I mean.. erm... no.. never..

Beautiful and disgusting at the same time. I don't want to look at it but I can't look away.

[–] thelsim@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yea, sorry about that.. It wasn't my intention to turn to body horror, but I do love the end result.

I had a feeling that Stable Diffusion wouldn't be able to generate what I was looking for, and I was right. So I turned to Dalle, which gave me some okay, but bland images. Then I took ideas from those and went to MidJourney where I got some beautiful images, but just not quite right. But I got some more stylizing ideas from those. Back to Dalle and got a good, but still bland image. Now it's SD to the rescue!

I started with inpainting the the surrounding cityscape bit by bit using one of my favorite realistic models Photon. Then with the Unstable Diffusers Nihilmania SDXL model, I proceeded to fix up the crack in the street. First the outline of the cracks, and then the inside with the Pixel Art XL lora.

Original Dalle prompt:
realistic digital art, a deserted city street at dusk, shimmering with the soft glow of street lamps, parts of the asphalt crack wide open, subtly revealing bright, pulsating binary code beneath, widescreen aspect ratio

Holy crap that's beautiful! I clearly still have so much to learn.

[–] theUnlikely@sopuli.xyz 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Thanks! Endless youtube videos and experimentation for a year help a bit

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Am still early in that cycle then! I hope to be there soon.

@BallShapedMan@lemmy.world, can you see if these scores are correct with the upvotes I've provided?

I guess that makes me the winner. Feels so weird to end the challenge this way, but I guess that's how it'll have to be.
Thank you for the wonderful challenge! The next challenge is already up.

I remembered an article about False Vacuum (Wikipedia) when i thought about this challenge. We see the remains of an alternate reality, condensed to this little "Stone" by the pressure of our reality.

Made with comfyui, using outpainting. The workflow should be embedded in this picture (Catbox).

Details

  • Prompt:

    • Base Image:
      • closeup of a flat polished transparent stone on a forest floor. Inside of the stone is a snowy eldritch landscape with a tiny eldritch hut, purple glowing windows
      • No negative Prompt
    • Outpainting:
      • A forest
      • No negative Prompt.
  • Model

    • Base Image:
      • dreamshaperXL_v21TurboDPMSDE
    • Outpainting:
      • juggerxllnpaint_juggerInpaintV8

The generation Process of the Base Image needs only 6 Steps at a CFG of 3 Thanks to the turbo Model.

The Outpainting needs 60 Steps and a CFG of 8.

workflow should be embedded into the picture

Unfortunately, I think lemmy strips the metadata as a safety precaution so people don't accidentally share their GPS coordinates when posting photos from their phones. A third party file sharing host is often used for sharing images with workflows intact, such as Google Drive, Catbox, etc.

[–] Itrytoblenderrender@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Thank you for this valuable info. I did not realize this and should have tested this. I will put the original image in the post.

Edit: I´ve added the original image via Catbox in the top Post.

Wow, this was tricky to find since it’s not stickied!

Here is the outcome of a lot of tweaks that started with the prompt in Dalle: “create an ultra detailed image of New York City with a glitch in the matrix”.

[–] theUnlikely@sopuli.xyz 4 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

I'm guessing there is a problem with federation to lemmy.world. Another user from that instance is having the same problem. Check the home instance of this community at https://sh.itjust.works/c/imageai. It also shows as pinned on the sopuli.xyz instance.

a double exposure photo of shops in Times Square, New York. The main image is modern day, but the faint double exposure is from around 1900

We're interconnected - good chemistry

Prompt @ Dall-E:

A photorealistic portrait of a woman and a man standing front to front at the edge of a forest, looking at each other, their skin is partly composed of subtle tiny molecules. It is visible that through the molecules they are interwoven with nature and the forest and everything. The image is displaying the connection between the human reality and the world of chemistry.

[–] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

I love the message and imagery here.

oh 💩! this won't be easy 🙂

you worked for a month to get sd to do that.

The theme is the means and not the end.

[–] theUnlikely@sopuli.xyz 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You weren't kidding... It took over four hours 😵‍💫
