Theme

i remember reading Thelsim posting about the difficulty of generating centaurs. I tried many times and i too failed. So, this week, the challenge is a real challenge: There should be a clear depiction of a centaur in your entry. No other conditions, you're free to choose the context.

Voting process

Everyone can submit their image to this post. At the end of the week all images will be collected and shared in a new voting post wherein people can vote on their favorite image. This will be up for at least 24 hours before a winner is made.

There are no extra points to be earned; OP will decide on a winner in case of a tie.

Rules

  • Follow the community’s rules above all else
  • One comment and image per user
  • Embed image directly in the post (no external link)
  • Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged but not required (we’re all here for fun and learning)
  • OP will declare winner in case of a tie
  • The challenge runs for about a week.
  • Downvotes will not be counted
  • Voting and final scoring will be done in a separate post.

Scores

At the end of the challenge the image with the most votes, wins!

The winner gets to pick the next theme. As always, have fun everyone!

You really know how to pick a challenge :)


Prompt: page scan of a bestiary codex, a centaur with a human face, holding a spear, overlooking a peaceful meadow --ar 3:2 --exp 10

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

that's an "anatomically" correct centaur 😯

apparently you needed a challenge to find those beasts :)

[–] thelsim@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Trust me, there were a lot of failures before I got lucky with this one :)

My favorite wrong one was this one:

I thought to be clever by explaining that a centaur has the lower body of a horse and the upper body of a human 🙄

I also tried asking Mistral the same question and it got a bit confused:

The only one to get it right in one go was the NovelAI model:

But that one is pretty much trained exclusively on anime art, so I'm guess there's a ton of centaurs in that training set :)

Been lurking for a long while, thought I'd finally jump in on the fun. This uses a Flux derivative model called STOIQO Unleashed for an initial pass, then I upscale the latent and run a second pass using the new Flux Krae model.

happy to see that now you're in on the fun :)

love this one

I generated this ungodly abomination for my TTRPG party as one of our players is a centaur. But Microsoft Copilot couldn't understand that a horse head was unnecessary.

Prompt was;

Can you generate me a picture of a kentaur that squeeses up a tight circulair revolving stairway, that is much smaller than the kentaurs frame?

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

reminds me of one of my failed attempts

indeed, anime models easily generate centaurs. Made with "Nova furry". Not a style that's interesting for me, but some were funny.

i tried to get him to play an accordéon, but i couldn't

[–] Cavendish@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 month ago

I like that he's holding up his horse skin, as if he needs a pair of suspenders to keep his disparate parts together.

one small detail makes this awkward enough :)

[–] Ziggurat@jlai.lu 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Just a fast classical one Actually bings does the trick

[–] Mechanize@feddit.it 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Using Chroma (v50 annealed GGUF Q4) it was pretty straightforward to get a centaur in whichever style, so I tried to make something weirder, making the head a completely different style from the rest of the image.

It was kind of a PITA to get something somewhat coherent and not messed up, but I think with enough prompt massaging it could output something really nice, but I don't have the hardware to experiment too much: it just takes too long to gen.
Still, it was fun.

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

can you post other versions too, where the head is rendered in the same style?

[–] Mechanize@feddit.it 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I don't have them: I generated a new one modifying the prompt

Is this what you meant? If you want it in other styles I can try them out, but it will take some time

EDIT: If it was because I said it was straightforward to gen them in whatever style, it is because of the dataset Chroma used for training: I would be incredibly surprised if centaurs aren't in there

Sorry about the confusion

Here's my best attempt. Good enough! Don't look too closely at the details.

does he cleanup after himself?

[–] cloudless@piefed.social 2 points 1 month ago

Should have added a poop bag.
