thank you, bakapo, i appreciate it, and those truly are not just words i'm tossing about.  it is still very much one day at a time, sometimes one minute at a time, depending upon the day, i suppose.

thanks for the optimism, Steve.

Don't lick the frogs unless you wanna taste lily pads for days. :P

Steampunk meets snakeskin 

Wombo

I hope everyone comes back and posts the things they love to make.

Those are touching and emotional images, Giana. I'm truly sorry for your loss. 

Thank you for sharing those with us Gianna, I am very honored that you did. There is a real depth of emotion in those pictures. 

I am just going to keep on sharing my pictures and I hope that people enjoy them.

Excellent light and coloring in those, Lunaseas, the boat on the water speaks to me.

Giana, I too am sorry for your loss.  Your images do portray it.   

Lunaseas:  I like the boat image also.  Not that the others are not great but I like images with water in them.  :-)

I wish AI did better with lettering and hands.  At least hands.  :-(

In case you are hungry.  :-)

I love black and pink, the flowers are beautiful, ladylake 

Those Jeweled flowers look great. Seem to be made of gold and fine china. Very pretty.

I am hungry now, thanks 🤣

I think it's a violation to tempt the mod to break her diet. Oh wait, I'm not on a diet. Never mind and carry on. Nice images

I'll carry on occasionally, Red Phantom.  I love to eat.  :-)

I actually picked up a punnet of Blueberries at the grocers after seeing this but put it back and grabbed 2 of strawberries instead for the same price

Strawberries are very good also.  lol

How about some ice cream?

Adorable byrdie.

Here are couple of mine for Caturday.  

accidentally deleted my post instead of editing 

how does one resize big images?

I chose 50% but it posted full size

Facebook post of all of them instead

just self portraits I never drew!

sorry no kitties but enjoying all yours

Nice ice cream and cool cats!

Glass cats

My cats were actually supposed to be made of ice cream -- saw some cool AI art of cats that had food and other textures instead of standard fur. The article didn't say how it was achieved but I suspect MidJourney. So I prompted "cute cat made of ice cream" and got those little darlings instead. Not complaining, though. Maybe I'll try glass or metal next in hope of a nice kitty statue.

Like the glass cats, bakapo.  

Byrdie:  never know what AI will throw out at you.  lol

thanks, everyone...

i used to collect hand-blown glass animals as a kid... that second cat is da bomb!!

and i love the red boats, Luna

i, too, also very much like the pink & black flowers... very cloisonne in feel for me, which my mum used to cherish.  black, pink, grey and white [best combo ever!], what i call 'mouse' colours due to a cat i shared a life with for a time... she felt threatened by the weirdest things, like yellow tractors going by the house, yet no other vehicles... stuff like that... heh... such a mouse she was...

Was she a Dormouse Giana?

Got around to trying the steampunk and the snakeskin.  Thanks for the idea, bakapo.  

That's a slick pair of steampunks!

Hi everyone, thanks to those who reached out lately for your good wishes.  I'm just taking a much needed break, busy with other fun stuff I've been wanting to try.  Like a good friend said, if it's not fun, what's the point.  I'll peek in and post when I can.  If you guys want to keep the thread going that's fine, if not, that's fine too.  All good things come to an end sooner or later eh.  Kind of surprised it's lasted this long to be honest with you, lol... 😎

Back to school...  

I will not let the eejits get me down... 🐉

Cool snakeskin steampunk, ladylake 

Hi, rhol, I hope you're doing well. I miss the activity this thread had... I like all of you very much.

Here are some more snakeskin types

Wombo

At the risk of opening a can of worms I'm only going to say I didn't attack or call anyone names til I was personally attacked and called names. Both behaviors are against the TOS for the forums here. Being rude, if I was, isn't against the TOS. It just means I tend to speak and write with very little tact. I don't go on the offensive til I've been put on the defensive. I wrote what I would and would not comment on. I never said nobody should post images I won't comment on so no, I wasn't "Gatekeeping". But I was bullied and attacked for speaking an opinion that wasn't enjoyed by some.

Thank you for sharing Steve...  :)

Don't worry my Figament followers, I will lead you to the AI promised land...  💫

Metallica - The Unforgiven

Hi Bakapo - I missed you and your wonderful Wombo art too... 💖 

Nope, not gonna be a blind sheep.  I walk beside or in front but not behind.  :-))))))  Just teasing (kind of).   Great image.

I don't think Stable Diffusion understood my prompt
a knitted scene, knitted figures sitting at a table eating and talking

it changed my Auntie into a bloke eating knitted food by looks and wearing knitwear

(It's a video of my Mum and Auntie eating lunch)

Don't worry LL, I have a shrink ray and a little saddle just for your tough Texas butt, lol... ❇️

AI promised land ... lol... those sheep are awesome! 

Well, Wendy, knitted food does have extra fiber. Yes, yes, I'll show myself out the door.... 

For WendyLuvsCatz, may you always post whatever you luv...  :)

nice robocat

and I don't mind the knitted food but expected my Auntie to be knitted too not Albert Einstein 

Wendy, try adding the word - amigurumi - to your prompt. Japanese for knit or crochet toy.

My prompt was amigurumi woman eating amigurumi bread. This was the first image that I got in wombo

What a place this is....we can ever learn a bit of Japanese.  Love it.

Cute image, bakapo.  

Free to express yourself.  

Nice images everybody. Here's my take on the Steampunk Snakeskin outfit.

Heya folks, was away going to Popcon here in Indy and a concert (that inspired some work) hope this new week finds you all well. Thankfully Mother Nature is finally taking pity on us here today.  

Midjourney's random takes on some of my art :)

Was really impressed by this take on my pencil drawing of Stan Lee...

Nice images everybody. Here's my take on the Steampunk Snakeskin outfit. Oooooh I like her...steampunk femme fatale...

Fun stuff, Lunaseas.   And your pencil drawing image was super.

Kenmac:  good steampunk also.  

For those that are still hungry after the blueberries.   Here is a plate with fruit, different types of cheese, some summer sausage and last but not least some chopped liver.  :-)  Enjoy!!

AI threw in the little jar...I think it must be relish of some kind.  lol

 bakapo amigurumi will look into it, rendering cyborgs right now
