THE EVIL DORK MONSTER COLLECTION

“What's your major, Lennie? Oh yeah: Dorkology.”
Jandy Nelson, The Sky Is Everywhere

On AI sites, and particularly Nightcafe (where I do most of mine) one thing that perhaps bothers me the most are all the cute things that are so 'Hallmark-type' fugly it is just beyond bad taste. Since some words are 'forbidden' to use in AI prompts, such as having to do with children, babies and such, the word chibi is used in prompts to create syrup images of gag-inducing abominations that would make your blood-sugar level go off the charts. I try my best to counteract such excess by creating the most surreal monsters I am capable producing, and as a critique of the Chibi Cult' I altered one of my prompt lines to include 'chibi' with my monster wordings. This is the one - and I even submitted it to a 'Challenge' where it was immediatedly deleted from the voting by a concerned 'moderator'.
^{I had one done already before, but it used a input image - so now I created this one TEXT ONLY. The new Dreamshaper XL Lightning works pretty good. All I needed to do was add Chibi to the prompt I had used previously, to get what I want. Below find the one where I used a input image:}Actually, I like the second one better, but in order to add something to a 'Challenge', it cannot be done with a seed image. That was moot anyway, since my entry was rejected. Then I turned a bit more on the screws of my prompt, and jacked up the 'noise' level, to come up with this variation:Seed image created on Dreamwombo.
I could not help myself, it had to be done - this sweet guy is a chibi eater - gobbling up all the chibis on the way back to weirdville! Watch out!
The seed image for the two above came from DreamwomboWithout the addition of 'Chibi' in the prompt, this is what the prompt reads:

The dork monster in cryptid taxidermy in post apocalyptic wonderland, in heaven everything is fine by lady in the radiator and brothers quay, stopmotion cinema photograph by h.r. giger, by giuseppe arcimboldo, hieronymus bosch, art nouveau, intricately detailed, hyperrealism, fantasy, imperial colors; bogomils universe

.... and one more time, for good measure:

But was this the end of it? No way, I barely got started!

THE CRYPTID MONSTER DORK IMAGES

^{after creating a seed image on Dreamwombo, i made variations of it on NightcafeThis was the prototype, the Dreamwombo looked similar, since I 'cooked' the seed with 0% noise - subsequently I used other modes, higher prompt weight and image noise. The results were quite different.}

---

The Nr. 7 in that series was similar to Nr. 6

I evolved Nr. 8 with a different mode, but that was the end of this run.

The name of the mode for Nr. 9 is

REAL CARTOON XL V4

^{I use that mode quite often since it returns very colorful images that depart from the ones evolved.}

---

As you can see, one prompt, with sometimes slight variations, such as adding a word or two, plus using different modes, prompt weight and image noise (in case of seed images) will produce quite different results.

I hope you liked my presentation, and on my end of the world it is already Sunday, so I wish you all a pleasant Weekend!
