A New day, a new beginning

Bit of a tease that one, only half a boob visible. Is that the sort of thing you are looking for?

I love that teasing! Also your girls wearing leather or protective gear add a lot of realism to the pics.

You can probably tell I'm not much of a wardrobe guy. How are you getting such interesting attire? Are you specific with it or do you just ask for "leather bikini" or something like that? Fascinating stuff.

half a boob is better than None!
But i would prefer the full view

Well, stay tuned there are more to come, but it may be a few days yet as I seem to have a bit of a queue of thigs to post.

Glad you liked that one, I thought it was quite cute. Well, regarding the protective gear, in that set I specified "multi-coloured bikini", SD seems to lake that rather loosely. In the past thought I've done sets with waterproofs and waders etc, it seems SD remembers those and adds them in for variety.

I tend to do a mixture, sometimes I am specific, other times I don't bother and just see what I get. SD seems to take what you say with a varying degree of latitude anyway. If you don't specify clothes you get lot of nude, but putting in any clothing will mostly cause SD to pad the rest out. The more specific you are the more chance you have of getting what you want. It seems to understand most of the terms I use. You can give it choices e.g. "green/red", this will result in some greens, some reds and a mixture. It may throw in some other colours as well. it also seems to use previous batches as a source of inspiration, I've done several batches with "waterproofs" etc as prompt words so they get liberally scattered into most non-specific sets. You can force SD to adhere to the prompt a bit more rigidly by upping the priority of certain prompt words e.g. "(quicksand:1.3)", this boosts the likelihood of them sinking. Additionally, there is an option labelled CFG Scale which can be raised to increase the priority of the prompt over "free interpretation". It also seems to know what to do with costumes (e.g. catwoman costume), I'm not sure how it develops, I suspect it monitors what you save and don't save and learns from that, but have no proof of this.

Typically, my prompts start off something like the ones below:

"slim beautiful pert blue-eyed woman aged 25, light blonde short curly hair, medium breasts, wearing black cocktail dress ..."

"25 year old beautiful blonde woman wearing high boots and a multi-colour bikini ..."

"blonde European woman explorer 25 wearing tall boots ..."

It seems that SD knows what a cocktail dress and bikini and has a pretty good idea what explorers wear.

If the AI tool you use has a Negative (or Anti) prompt box, make use of that as well, my standard anti-prompts is:

"(worst quality, low quality:1.3),water, smile, stick, track, path, bad anatomy, missing fingers, extra fingers, sitting, kneeling, logo, text, watermark, children, boots on hands, paddle, carrying"

I'm not sure it takes notice of all these terms, but I thought most of them were worth a shot.

A bit of a mixed bag today, I've been busy with some new options (see last two)

Ah, that was a big step down, hope there's a bottom.

You...you're touching me" ... "Yes I am!"

God, it's hot in the jungle, good thing there's a way of cooling down!

New Toy 1 - Control Net/OpenPose, use a pic, sketch, etc to control the pose in generated images. This is based on an old photomanip of mine.

New Toy 2 - ReActor, Supply a picture with face/s to use in the generated images. This is fun, possibly dangerous if misused. Note: DON'T install Roop to do this it is deprecated, I wasted two hours. Note: ReActor requires the presence of Visual Studio (as did Roop) to work, 9.5GB install. So, who's this? No prizes for guessing, too easy.

We have little personal preferences but these are all great. The posing exercise with Control Net is a personal favorite. The last one reminds me of Barbara Eden.

Thanks Duncan, I'm always keen to know what people prefer, it gives me something to work with. Sometimes inspiration is lacking and a few prompts help. Interesting that you like the ControlNet one, to me it's the least dramatic and I feel there is a lot more to be got out of ControlNet but it will take a fair bit of experimenting. Apart from that it is based on one of my favourite photomanips, which I still feel is a lot more realistic, what do you think:

Ah, Barbara Eden, I used to like "I Dream of Jeannie", good try but not correct.

Whoever she is, she's hot as hell. But I gotta admit, I'm stumped too. lol

Yep, I always thought so.

I guess a bit more help is needed here:

I was trying to get close to a style from a movie she did, here's another from the same set.

These are styled from another movie she did.

Obviously, these movies didn't have quicksand scenes, but I did have high hopes before I saw them for the first time. I think they stand the test of time will and still enjoy them when they get repeated.

Ah yes, Looks more Hanoi Hannah herself. What really threw me on the Barbara Eden thing was the improved figure. Jane was kind of less epically...uh, well proportioned. Barbarella missed a scene but that "excessive machine" was a great consolation prize. Beautiful work on all of them.

Ouch! Well, she has apologised for that repeatedly. Anyway, I think politics is one of the things banned on this site, so best leave it there. Whatever, I still think she was a fine actress. There were a few good scenes in Barbarella but the "excessive machine" was pretty good. Regarding proportions, unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it) ReActor only swaps faces. I think it is pretty good, especially as it has to cope with replacing faces at different angles to the sample.
