Not sure which is more fascinating, the Latex/Leather Nun (must be some sort of goth assassin cult she's from) or everybody going about business as usual and totally ignoring the girl with the giant-a$$ military mech. That sorta thing happen often on their planet?

Had to reinstall my old Stable Diffusion to get it working right, kept getting all sorts of weird errors and crashes. Apparently it does not play well with something in the newest version, because that didn't happen until after I added the new models folder to my old. Think I've got it all sorted out now, though I haven't tried putting high heels on anybody yet to see if it still generates multi-limbed mutants when I render. That was fun ... not.

On a Fantasy kick at the moment. Trying some non-magical -- or not that kind of magical -- characters out as elves and vampires and such. Best results come from SDXL at ClipDrop but regular SD on my own rig's no slouch either, now I've a few good models to play with. So if you've wondered what an elf lord John Watson might look like:

Signed because I did enough postwork, albeit minor, to warrant it. The model is one I got on CivitAi, unfortunately it's name is a TOS violation but if you have adult section access and go looking in the gay category, which is apparently where all the best male models are, you'll very likely find it. Gives quality results with both dressed and undressed characters, though finding best render/generation settings still requires patience and a bit of fiddling till you hit the right spot.

Now if I could only figure out why SDXL keeps giving Elvish Snape green eyes ...

Moon elf treatment for Sherlock, this time from ClipDrop's SDXL. Had to do a bit of fixing with their cleanup tool, mostly on collar. Could probably still be improved but I didn't want to mess with it too much.

I think Mycroft will be a dragon of some sort. He certainly is one in my AU Consulting Mage series back when I was doing old school Poser work with Mike & Vicky 4.

No idea how one would get it in MidJourney, can't even get it in regular Stable Diffusion, at least far as I know. Seems to be specific to ClipDrop, just select Fantasy Art from the style icons after you type your prompt when generating anything there using Stable Diffusion XL. The default is a little button thingy marked No Style, click on that and the icon menu pops up showing -- yeah, I know :-) -- birds in various art styles. Click the birdie of your choice, then the Generate button.

Pretty sure it's ClipDrop specific, tried the same prompt that gave me lovely ginger dragon kitties there over at Nightcafe and their version of fantasy art mix is nothing like it. All Thomas Kincade studio in that style, and this is most certainly not Kincade-like. Don't think it's that other guy either, you know, the one whose name must never be invoked. I suspect it's a blend of various fantasy artists but no luck so far in identifying any of them.

And, not really random. Clipdrop's fantasy style gives that sort of brushwork nearly all the time. Here's a cute cat in a rose garden (yes, that's the entire prompt) with the fantasy art style applied.

No fixes used on any of these, that's straight out of Stable Diffusion XL.

Byrdie - Thanks, it's sounds similar to Wombo where you can select a filter style to apply to your prompt. It's the nice glowing light that catches my eye. I like a challenge so I'll try some different fantasy art styles im mid-j to see if I can find something like it... ;)

Silly question about elves: is there a specific term to describe their ears other than pointed/pointy? Because I keep getting too many of the ones that are stuck out at the sides instead of the Spock style variant, which is what I prefer my elves to look like. Clipdrop is usually close with it but in regular SD on my own machine they nearly always come out side to side like this:

And yes, I tried putting Vulcan ears in the prompt instead of pointy ears but it made not one bit of difference. Maybe if I knew what that particular elf sub-species is called I could use it as a negative prompt to try and decrease the odds of getting the wrong look.

Been fiddling with random prompts from an article I was reading and trying them out in SDXL on Clipdrop. Just a few samples:

Alien planet prompt using the Cinematic style filter on top two. Then I added people -- those first guys were more or less random -- and switched over to Fantasy Art for the rest.

Think that last one has finger issues. Will probably fix later, keeping a few in reserve for gallery work.

Base prompt using Cinematic style: Sci-fi digital painting of an alien landscape with otherworldly plants, strange creatures, and distant planets

Modified to these in Fantasy Art style:

Alien princess with wizard in an alien landscape, exotic plants, strange creatures, and distant planets

a beautiful princess in garden on an alien planet with otherworldly plants and creatures starry sky, distant planets

Not sure how they'll work in MidJourney or elsewhere and I haven't used them on my local SD install so cannot say how good for other apps.

@lenord Agree on frame 2 being the best, though I also like the first one. Like a movie that opens with the hero as a kid wishing for some sort of magical adventure, then next scene's a time jump where they're older -- but alas, not necessarily wiser -- and ready for the quest.
