My experiments over the last few days have been mixed, I'm using a merged checkpoint I generated from two I like, LeosamHelloWorld and LahMysterious. They are quite different, one is mainly photorealistic and the other is more art inclined, so I'm getting a mixture of image types ranging from photo like to CGI/Comic art. I've also been experimenting with some different styles (mostly of a darker nature) and, just for the hell of it, I thought I would try to improve my "tarpit" rendition. See what you think of some of the results, I'd be interested to hear opinions - any opinions.

Re: Off the beaten track
These do look great (of course!)
The ones from yesterday are not necessarily a tarpit. Some do remind me of certain areas at a "substitute bog" i visit from time to time. Sometimes the nature-conservation-service does clear parts of the bog from all vegetation and exposes the barren, dark peat. Those areas are not bottomless (never encountered this there), but are nice playgrounds when you are into getting deeply stuck with waders and all kinds of booted fun....
Impressions from their work are these:

Best pic from today is forth one down: Looks like Wednesday did finally get into some unexpected trouble (at their own garden?

I was aiming for a tarpit look, but the AI tends to produce a mixture. My wildcard file had about four different descriptions, some worked better than others. I continued the experiment today but haven't gone through those yet.
Ah, cleared peatbogs, when I first started these and just put peatbog in the prompt these were the sort of settings I got. They could look quite daunting with a nice foggy background.
I didn't think of Wednesday Adams, but could well be. I got the impression that she and Pugsley played around in that garden quite a lot.

I try to keep my customers satisfied, well, the ones that talk to me anyway. Well, the swamp is a tar swamp, so there's lots of patches with inflammable gasses being released and when one gets lit they all get lit! I was trying to get something that looked more like a tar/oil swamp and playing with some dark styles I found. I quite enjoyed the results. One of the "styles" threw up some "interesting" results - see 4th pic below when you've stopped looking at the second!

Thought it might. Hopefully I can cause a pause again.

You sure you really want to know? OK then:

It didn't use all of it!

Re: Off the beaten track
the second damsel looks pretty nonchalant about being stuck in tarpit with fires breaking out
