Greetings, artists from all worlds and all realities!
Today, I thought I'd share with you some cuter creations from last week. I hope you enjoy it!
They were made using my custom build of Disco Diffusion, a version of Stable Diffusion, photo-manipulation and digital drawing through Gimp and Inkscape, and post editing/composition in darktable.

Process:
I am going to quote my previous post, since the process is overall the same, though it takes me longer and longer with all the new stuff I'm learning:
So my process hasn't changed since last post, but it has become more involved, complicated, and overall longer. I usually draw a quick sketch or a basic drawing on Gimp of what I have in mind (very basically), then feed that to Stable Diffusion to generate more intricate versions of that initial sketch.
Once I'm satisfied with a few results, I import them into Gimp again to adjust some things, maybe change the colours, paint over a few things, do some basic photo-manipulation, add some elements/take out some elements, etc. Back into SD and repeat until I'm satisfied.
Then it's slicing time.
I usually chop my not-final result into 5 to 8 parts, and feed these slices to Disco Diffusion, at double resolution, to really add the details. That process alone takes half a day minimum to be achieved, as it takes between 45min and an hour and a half for SD to run my slices at double res.
Back into Gimp, stitching and photo-manipulation, that hasn't changed, really. Inkscape sometimes, if I need to vectorize after drawing and painting over.
Then this final result will be taken into darktable where I do my final editing and compositing, et voila!
I am currently working on building a website, in order to start selling and shipping prints and goodies with my art on it, so stay tuned if you are interested!
Super nice. 👌🏼👍🏼💕🐈😎
The warm and cool colors on the second image really make the details pop! These are rad!
