AI Member AI Pictures Thread

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

Many people are beginning to use the new software available, so here's a thread to post yours. Show what you can do! 🙂

NOTE: This is for your own creations ONLY. AI art you find on the Internet should go in the Tolkien Artwork thread:

Tolkien Artwork

There's tons of artwork out there but I figured maybe we could use this thread to share some of our favorites that we've come across by other artists. If you post any, try to give credit to the original artist in your post. I'll start, I found this on Reddit this morning of Turin vs Glaurung...

Lord of the Rings by John Carpenter

I used a different AI tool today. It's called midjourney (often used in the videos I shared before) and I typed the following into the prompt: "Frodo Baggins in a black & white movie by Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau"

Here as a character in a movie by Studio Ghibli:

In the meantime I read that Studio Ghibli director and founder Hayao Miyazaki actually hates AI generated "art" very much (and he also dislikes Lord of the Rings btw). 🤓

Here I just typed "Leonardo da Vinci as Gandalf" into the Prompt:

Pixar style Frodo:

That's what I made with an earlier version of Stable Diffusion: The Fellowship as if they were photographed in the 1800s.

Chinese and Japanese Gandalf. This was made with Blue Willow, a similar AI too as the aforementioned Midjourney.

"Gandalf in the style of Vincent van Gogh"

I've been going crazy using a site called NightCafe. It operates on credits which you can earn in different ways, but gives 5 free credits a day. There is also an option where you can generate unlimited images for free if you do it one at a time and use the 'Stable' creation method.

Anyway, it produces some bizarrely interesting results. Here are two different results for 'Balrog', in the style of 'Modern Comic' and 'Animev2':

😐😄🤣

Here's a pretty cool result for 'Dragon of Darkness' (a phrase from the LotR-themed Led Zeppelin song "The Battle of Evermore") using the 'Dark Fantasy' style:

 

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

That is cool. You should try "In the darkest depths of Mordor, I met a girl so fair" -- if that's not too much of a mouthful.

 

[Radaghast]

Here are three results using the same style ('Dark Fantasy'):

The second one seems to be holding some kind of flame-thrower.

 

[Radaghast]

Thought I'd try the following line, "... but Gollum and the Evil One crept up and slipped away with her", with three different styles:

Dark Fantasy

Modern Comic

Pop Art

Medieval lightsaber.

Medieval lightsaber.

Nobody's creeping away with that lady.

 

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

I think it's "Gollum, the evil one" BTW.

Good work, though! 👍

It's "and the evil one". That's what I hear anyway, and that's what the lyrics sites say too

 

[Squint-eyed Southerner]

Huh. Well, I haven't heard the song in decades. And my mind was a little fuzzy back then. 🤪

 

[Radaghast]

Here's the "girl so fair" line in 'Modern Comic' style:

No idea what those words are trying to say. I don't know whether to be amused or afraid...
