on another tangent   

or two...

I think I may have a go with the bugs even though me and bugs just don't get along ;)

Rhol - the prompt was from a very old Sensational Alex Harvey Band track called The Tale of the Giant Stone Eater.  

Trying to think of another insect then I remembered the critter we all watched out for while working across Africa, the dreaded "Tsetse" Fly.

Something neat for MidJourney users to try:

Ought to get interesting Muppet portraits, assuming I've copy-pastaed correctly.

Was never a Muppet fan so don't know many of their names....

Think that's me done hahaaaaaa

Scooby Doo hahaaaaaaa

Bugs Bunny's a bit creepy

Maybe I should stop now ...

I thought it might work with other toons than The Muppets. Mickey Mouse -- or would Disney sue?

It works with pretty much anything.  This is a fusion of dragon and unicorn, although where the hooman came from is a mystery

White Rabbit

Love it. MidJourney & Wonderland seem made for each other, the weird vibe they seem to have going on. I do suspect the creators of both were maybe under the influence of some pretty exotic substances to come up with the things they did.

Almost caught a Baked Potato upside the head, the ole Lady called me for dinner 3 times and I kept saying just a minute that only works so many times and sh!t starts flying. So had to go eat then I could finish this up for the night...

works on Nightcafe too

https://creator.nightcafe.studio/creation/2nCrWfVILwyAmHse3Ct1

Lots of cool stuff going on!  Thanks for the prompt Byrdie, should be fun to play with...  :)

Makes for a nice praying mantis...

Got some fun stuff with Cthulhu...

be   still    my    heart... 

that mantis is, uh, well, uh, just...        wow....

looks like she's carved from bone, or ivory, like Scrimshaw...

anyone remember the "Poodle moth"?  never was confirmed as real or not, as only one supposed 'real' photo was taken & the moth was never seen, or found, again, but the idea did take the net by storm for a hot minute...  if you Google for it, you'll see what i mean - cute as hell :))

here's the supposed 'true' photo of it, but as i said, in googling it, you can see what fun others had with the thought/idea/etc...

 - photographed in 2009 by Kyrgyzstani zoologist Dr. Arthur Anke

Wow! Best looking Cthulhu I've ever seen.

Remember what the Dormouse said Feed Your Head

Sea Serpents

wow, Lenord, the mice and the sea serpents are fabulous!

and all the midjourney renders are so cool!

Apparently that is a very popular prompt with the group it was posted to because (a) very versatile and (b) awesomeness of fractals in the output. Meanwhile, I think this is as close as I'm going to get with sorting kitteh's odd legs using inpainting. Photoshop'll have to do the rest. 

Oh, and a link to some frogs with yakuza tattoos. Midjourney again but haven't found the prompt.https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=10217821175040474&set=pcb.675547457543825

This is a brilliant thread, lots of very cool and creative ideas and images, will be adding this to my watch list...!! first class work everyone...some random sci-fi stuff from me

The sea serpents are awesome, like images from a story book!

Excellent sci fi work Darkglass!

Here's the post....

This is in the gallery...but i will drop it here as well, Many thanks for the kind words rhol_flgament, wonderful idea to get this thread started, top man...!!

Hello Darkglass :)

Loving my muppet fractal seahorses

Hello gillbrooks : )

Your seahorses is stunning and very ornate and intricate, first class work....!!

Seahorses why didn't I think of that...how about Sea Monkey's used to get those out of Comic Book adds

Seahorse

Thank you Darkglass.  We're playing with a fractal prompt!

Len, Not sure about the seamonkeys, but the seahorses are gorgeous :)

Although, a couple of mine came out....well....like this hahaaaaaaaaa

Ancient Oak Tree works 

Love that Oak. Working on some now, elves, unicorn, wizards, etc. Will post more later, hopefully.

No idea why it thinks a unicorn should have more than one horn. Heck, it's in the name of the beastie: uni = one, corn (cornus) horn. LOL! So much for intelligence. 

Mine with Wombo not at all like yours in MJ but I liked them anyway.  Most of the tries looked a lot like fancy jewelry.  Got some pretty cool images out of this anyway.

I stuffed as many of the words from the prompt into my prompt as I could.  Wombo is pretty limited on spaces for that.

wombo seahorse

ooh, pretty sea horsies! and armoured wolfs, excellent! Might try some fancy armoured cats later. Assuming I recover from tomorrow's ordeal at the hospital, which I expect to involve some extremely painful medical tests. Followed by probably 3-6 weeks of struggling to hold on to my last nerve while waiting on the results. Not fun. Anyway, I used that prompt on some familiar characters with varied results, mostly good, a few great, others both amusing and disastrous. This, however, is the closest I've seen an AI get to properly drawn human hands -- and wouldn't you know it, something else is messed up. :sigh: One of these days ...

I am waiting for The Row House to make us 3D versions of those fractal overlays as masks and headdresses

Gigi does such amazing & incredible headpieces - simply mind-blowing models!! she has had me swooning far too many times to count at this point :))

i would think with a little finesse that some interesting things could be done with jellyfish as well, esp. since if you squint in just the right way, they can kinda look like ornate chandeliers... heh

Wow you guys have found some super nice Wombo images!  I'm having some trouble with Wombo, but will try a smaller version of the prompt when it decides it wants to work again...

So in the meantime a steampunk owl.  The old tree's look like another fun twist I'll have to try.  I'll also have to order some sea monkey's from one of my old comic books...  ;)

That prompt sure can be addictive, lol...  :)
