This past August I posted about my drawing FAMILY REUNION, since I was able to re-acquire this important work from my eighties period. Before then, I did not have any good photos of it. Now I do, getting good images with my Canon camera. It inspired me also to try creating some images with AI.
But there were a number of them that do not have much in common with the original story. That's just how my brain works. The above link to my previous post about my drawing explains the original story.
Without further ado, here are the ones I created on Nightcafe:

FAMILY REUNION FROM HELL

^{Family Reunion from Hell Nr. 1}

^{Family Reunion from Hell Nr. 2}

^{Family Reunion from Hell Nr. 3}

^{Family Reunion from Hell Nr. 4}

^{Family Reunion from Hell Nr. 5}
When a prompt works out well, it is tempting to ride the process, which I did in this case, only varying the format and prompt strength. The prompt was rather simple:
"Family Reunion from Hell in Cryptid Taxidermy in post apocalyptic wonderland, in heaven everything is fine by lady in the radiator and brothers quay, painting by H.R. Giger, by Giuseppe Arcimboldo, Hieronymus Bosch, Alphonse Mucha, Art Nouveau, intricately detailed, hyperrealism, fantasy, imperial colors; Bogomils Universe"

The mode for these was SDXL 1.0

Using the same prompt, but this time evolving a entirely different image with it that had nothing to do with the theme of the prompt, it yielded a very different result - something perhaps a bit more cheerful and 'nicer' colors:

SPIRITUAL FAMILY REUNION IN THE CRYPTID MUSEUM

^{so what was the image it evolved from?
the prompt strength set to 70% and the noise to 70% also, it retained the color scheme, but nothing else}
GANESH THE CREATOR

^{at that time I created well over 20 images of this because of a challenge}
But now, back to Family Reunion
^{it would not be me to end on a sweet note, now I am getting more sinister than what I started with:}

NOSFERATU FAMILY REUNION

^{all I did here is change the first line of the prompt to also read Nosferatu
however, this was a SDXL 1.0 evolve from a SD 1.4 creation with the same prompt}
THE NOSFERATU GANG REVISITED

^{I created a ton of Nosferatu images, and am still adding more.
But now that I had in the meantime 'trained' a Drawing Lora with over 60 of my analog drawings, I am definitely building up on these themes, be that Nosferatu (done so already) and as we speak, now I am adding a Family Reunion piece:}

FAMILY REUNION - THE DRAWING MODE

these two were created using the actual analog drawing as the input
and 'cooked' at different prompt and image noise settings

The original drawing from 1980 was the input image:
