D&D General AI Art for D&D: Experiments

Heh. An awfully tall halfling. But would actually make a pretty decent elf.

It is really hard for the AI to understand how small is small... I at least told it to make the humans taller that solved them all being the same height. And at least the short bow looks right... yeah, the fletching is backward on the arrow but I will let it pass.

Another generated suggestion that came up during my work on a different series... "An underwater scene featuring a mermaid warrior of Polynesian descent, battling a sea monster among coral reefs."

The curious case of the glaistig:

The glaistig is a fey creature from Celtic mythology. Sometimes she's nice, sometimes she's nasty, but she generally appears with a mix of human and goat-like characteristics. If the style is watercolor then Dall E seems to have some idea of what a glaistig is.



Change the style, and not so much.

That is very cool. Very Arthur Rackham.

My wife challenged me to create an image in the style of this famous painting of Marie Antoinette, the twist being that the subject is a male rogue disguised as noble woman and by happenstance has to pose for a painting... I call this series Roguish Delights.

First thing I did was upload the above image into Fantasy Artisan as a reference. I had it analyze it for art style, technique, period, and fashion. Once that was done I had it create a prompt based upon that analysis but change the subject to the cross-dressing rogue. That got us this...

Spoiler: GENERATED PROMPT

GENERATED PROMPT: A Rococo-style painting of a human male rogue disguised as a noblewoman, sitting for a portrait. The rogue has a mischievous glint in his eyes that hints at his true identity, but otherwise is fully dressed in 18th-century women's fashion, with a wide pannier dress richly decorated with floral embroidery and lace trimmings, and hair styled high in a manner befitting the aristocracy of the time. The setting is an opulent room suggestive of wealth, with a gilded chair and ornate drapery in the background. Soft, diffused lighting highlights the textures of the dress and the delicate, yet slightly unconvincing features of the disguised rogue. The painting captures the essence of Rococo art, with a pastel color palette and fine, detailed brushwork, creating a sense of lightness and grace, contrasted subtly by the rogue's knowing smirk. Fantasy artisan prompt, hd quality, natural look.

Next, I used the generation ID to create a series of the same rogue with different colors, Red, Green, Blue, and Purple.

Antique children's book illustration strikes again!

This is another auto generated suggestion that Fantasy Artisan creates after generating images for me. This one was, "An epic clash between a fire-wielding sorcerer and a water-controlling mage in a volcanic landscape."

I was amazed at the output... truly amazed.

Just playing around with another example from the Explore section. I've noticed that DALL-E struggles with the concept of buildings up in trees.

Here we go! I had to specify "treehouses":
