Prompt: create me an image of view through a castle window looking out over exotic distant lands. The image should be in the style of paper cut outs that are layered on top of each other.

Congratulations on (shared) second place! This is a really nice image. I love the window framing the beautiful view outside. The exotic castles overlooking the sea are practically inviting you to go out and explore them. The paper cut out style gives it a very clear and interesting detail. Especially the mountains and clouds in the background look great.

Stable diffusion, Model : realisticVisionV40_v40VAE

Prompt : [One boat], on the sea, a hostile land at the horizon, year 1720, (pirate)

Negative prompt : modern, close-up, humans

Interestingly enough, adding the pirate, even with a reduced weight really changed the outcome, and basically switched to a "pirate movie/game universe" instead of a "classical painting universe"

Thank you for your entry! It's always interesting to see how influential a single word can be. I guess pirates feature so heavily in movies and games that it's almost impossible not to end up with one. Maybe a term like privateer of buccaneer could give different results in the future?
I like that you went with the travel aspect of the theme.

Thank you for your entry and definitely most alien distant land :) What kind of art style did you select for this? It looks very alien and a little unsettling.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

"giger style" 😅

master of the unsettling

Congratulations on first place! An excellent picture with lots of nice details. The underwater setting gives it an almost dreamlike quality.
It's your turn to choose a new theme!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wow, was not expecting that. Hmmm, How about "Unreal Cartoons"?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Sounds good to me :) You can make a new post in the community, just follow the formatting of this post if you like. I'll pin it once you've set it up.

I wanted to make something looking like Moebius' landscapes.

"landscape strange vegetals tropical forest birds sky style of moebius"
Model: toonyou_beta6

Second attempt.
I think that the first attempt was great, but there is no trace of exotic civilization in it.
So I made small changes in the prompt to get a cabin, where you can project yourself in this distant world.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I hate to be nitpicking, but which picture are you submitting for the challenge? The first one is getting all the votes now.
You can resubmit this new image if you like and remove the old one?

Thank you for your image! I love the art style and vibrant colors. I does look very exotic and it makes you want to see more of it.

Here’s a mini cave ecosystem that I imagined for a sci-fi story. Not quite everything turned out but I like the style of this one:

Bing Prompt: A dark underground cavern in igneous rock. There are bats hanging from the ceiling, with bat guano on the ground. A small cloud of moths rises from the ground. Small, low bushes send roots through the floor of the cave, and grow luminescent berries that light the cave with a pale glow. A woman doctor with messy brown hair sits on the floor with her head in her hands. photorealistic style

Thank you for your entry! The cave looks interesting and I can imagine it would make a great setting for your story. I like the little lights in the tree, even if they didn't turn out to be berries. What is the story going to be about?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

The settings are a series of planets which were each seeded by ancient aliens with prehistoric humans and a handful of Earth species that complemented the environment, like little terrariums. For this underground rogue planet, the species included bats and moths for pollination and fertilization, and yams for the volcanic soil.

Here, a visiting doctor from a sunny planet is driven to hide in the caves, a pariah because of her lack of night vision and sun-adapted features. Clouds of bats and moths in a dim moist cave lit by fairy tail glowing berries seemed like an interesting place to bring alive with AI!
