That’s “Trinitron” 🙂

Figured, but was not sure. Though you can presumably feed it your own input image, (any kind of) noise or not. Not sure if it keeps the same number of total steps in that case.

I tried turning the Perlin noise on and off (on the standalone notebook) but I have not been able to figure out what the ultimate difference is, if any.

That looks to me like a movie poster.

Inspired by [a thread in FQ](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/most-populated-buildings/965180/6), I took a whack at the Kowloon Walled City.

Okay, several whacks.

I’m a fan of abstraction, so this one I found quite evocative:

Dancing women, AR Penck, black and white, line drawing

[![](https://images.nightcafe.studio/jobs/uV2aHwLUqU8r6Z3udBQS/uV2aHwLUqU8r6Z3udBQS.jpg?tr=w-1600,c-at_max) ](https://images.nightcafe.studio/jobs/uV2aHwLUqU8r6Z3udBQS/uV2aHwLUqU8r6Z3udBQS.jpg?tr=w-1600,c-at_max)

It’s not really quite in Penck’s style, but I do like the use of space and the impression of women dancing.

The yokai portrait tests can be so variable, even between two runs with the same prompt and even the same seed, that often it can be difficult to be sure of a distinctive style without several runs with it.

“Psychedelic art” definitely works. (So do “blacklight”, “day-glo”, and “dope art”.) (eta these are all just psychedelic, it looks like I was saying one of each.)

[![](https://i.imgur.com/s6VV32a.jpeg) ](https://i.imgur.com/s6VV32a.jpeg)

“Tijuna bible” doesn’t give you simple line art on cheap paper, but it definitely gives you _something_ that counts as a style. I suspect just using “Tijuna” alone would give the same results.

[![](https://i.imgur.com/OiIhpkD.jpeg) ](https://i.imgur.com/OiIhpkD.jpeg)

“Andy Warhol” does something. “Chick tract”…might? Again no line-art but maybe the color covers. There seems to be a hellfirey/demony/judgey feel about them. (And I probably don’t need to point out which are Worhol and which are Chick.)

Toulouse-Lautrec and Mark Ryden make an “inseresting” pairing.

(There is some cherry-picking with some of these images)

Currently obsessing over one image that was thrown out with a “yokai family” prompt—I saw that in an early iteration the “child” looked very much like a dog.

[![](https://i.imgur.com/Rm4g9aI.jpeg) ](https://i.imgur.com/Rm4g9aI.jpeg)

(Earlier iterations often look better than the final, except blurry. I’ve tried [this](https://replicate.com/google-research/maxim) AI on them, but it fails to meet the lofty claims.)

So not only did I do a couple of runs “man with dog” using an early iteration of the image along with the otherwise identical prompt, but I’ve also done duplications, evolutions, start image editing, and varying the prompt to “yokai man with child” and “man with child”, trying to get something with better faces. (In one of them, the child ends up with a very full beard.)

[[Album] imgur.com ![](https://i.imgur.com/GxTmCWJ.jpeg?fb "imgur.com") ](https://imgur.com/a/JK60yHl)

If you want to try playing with it, the prompt is

> **Summary**
>
> xxxx | tronie | full-length portrait | hyperdetailed colored pencil drawing | photorealistic | style of dan witz | style of Toulouse-Lautrec
> 
> (Where “xxxx” is “yokai family”, “man with dog” man with child, “woman with dog” or whatever) with a seed of 81318, 9:16 aspect ratio and the coherent renderer
> 
> (Using the same seed sometimes but doesn’t always throw out a similar image, so it helps to use a iteration 50 as a start image.)

### Zombie Woman | Portrait | Style of Gibson Girl | Style of Dan Witz | Colored Pencil on Paper | Highly Detailed

That’s actually the 75% image as the final result took some unfortunate turns.

Yeah, I was using zombie to provide some cover for its limitations. I optimistically tried a couple “beautiful woman” variations afterward and effectively set my credits on fire accordingly.
