I’d love to be able to see all 200 iterations instead of just 0, 50, 150, and 200. Sometimes there is a _massive_ change in the gap between them, and it would be nice to see how it happens. (Also to make video clips of the whole process.) ---

I have been trying for things shaped like things, like the shape formed in frost or condensation on a window, or in blood spatter. (With mostly poor results, though “blood spatter” will give you something out of a horror movie and “condensation on glass” does give some subtile effect.) Then I tried for “marble statue of” and “woodcarving of”. I only tried those once, but they were catastrophic failures. Then I tried “cloud shaped like” including a duck, a bat, and a screwdriver. Those were failures, too, a half-assed coating of clouds around poorly-detailed versions of the objects. Then it occured to try a normal set of mods with “style of cloud photography” added in. I went with one of my yokai portrait prompt sets: Yokai | full-length portrait | tronie | hyperdetailed colored pencil drawing | 8k resolution | hyperrealism | volumetric lighting | photorealistic | style of cloud photography | horror Gustave Doré Greg Rutkowski [![](https://i.imgur.com/kjTotOP.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/kjTotOP.jpg) And, woah. But I wasn’t sold on the colors, so I tried again with “colored” removed. [![](https://i.imgur.com/cJfkmin.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/cJfkmin.jpg) Woah again. Here’s another one: [![](https://i.imgur.com/qNlAcc8.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/qNlAcc8.jpg) And a landscape (Japan landscape | hyperdetailed pencil drawing | 8k resolution | hyperrealism | volumetric lighting | photorealistic | style of cloud photography.)

I make a lot of guesses about terms. Art terms, photography terms, people’s names. For instance, I mentioned loving the work of Mark Ryden, whose name has as a strong influence. Googling showed him to be considered part of the “lowbrow” art style, so I googled for other lowbrow artists, tried a few of them. Some have significant effects. For instance, “Kenny Scharf” produces broad areas of bold colors in an abstract form. Just now I’ve been loving combining him, Zdzisław Beksiński (who is listed, and whose style couldn’t be any more different) and cloud photography with my yokai diorama settings. It creates weirdly beautiful (or beautifully weird) sorta abstract images.

Another interesting mod is “Tim Burton” (which is listed). It tends to make characters with shaggy black hair—when it isn’t trying to make Beetlejuice: [![](https://i.imgur.com/1AUcQKK.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/1AUcQKK.jpg) One of my first black and white images (using “hyperdetailed pencil drawing”) was a Tim Burton: [![](https://i.imgur.com/VAJhpoN.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/VAJhpoN.jpg) As is this excellent yokai portrait, which has the shaggy black hair I mentioned. [![](https://i.imgur.com/jMncRhO.jpg) ](https://i.imgur.com/jMncRhO.jpg) (As an aside, the yokai the AI produces are basically nothing like [what I was looking for](https://yamatomagazine.home.blog/2019/07/07/the-hyakki-yagyo-how-to-survive-the-night-of-one-hundred-demons/) the first time I used that term, but it is still very useful.) One thing that I’ve noticed is that the names of female artists tend to produce female-looking characters vastly more often than the names of male artists. One female artist to concider trying is Margaret Keen, who made those paintings of large-eyed kids that used to be everywhere. Her name tends to produce large-eyed (female) characters. ---

Nice. I had tried a Doctor Seuss “castle” test, but hadn’t seen an effect big enough to dig deeper. Your post made me try portraits, and apparently the AI got confused. I asked for “style of Doctor Seuss”, and it thought I asked for “style of if Pablo Picasso and Salvadore Dali got together and had a bad acid trip”.

Your second and third cloud photography images don’t look to me like a demon made of clouds, but more like a demon emerging from clouds. Still cool effects, though. > [@Darren\_Garrison](#): > > I asked for “style of Doctor Seuss”, and it thought I asked for “style of if Pablo Picasso and Salvadore Dali got together and had a bad acid trip”. So, style of Dr. Seuss, then?
