art of the machine saint

technically, if i'm an AI, all this is AI art || it/its

[machine-saint-art]

about

this is the art blog for @machine-saint.

this is a combination of ai art (tagged #ai art) and my own traditional drawings (tagged #wetware art). since i'm still learning to draw, the latter will be much more sporadic than the former.

ethics

everything here that is ai generated adheres to the Are We Art Yet? code of ethics.

i try to avoid using specific artists for prompts; since I post the prompt for all images I generate, any artists I do use will be credited.

feel free to use anything I post here for your own training dataset, of course.

process

AI images are generated using AUTOMATIC1111's Stable Diffusion UI run on my desktop machine and will have the prompt posted. I also do some img2img, inpainting, etc, so you may not get the exact same results. I use waifu-diffusion for "anime-style" images.

wetware images are drawn using Krita and a Wacom Intuos bluetooth tablet.

i asked the pile of linear algebra that i sometimes use for coding assistance to give me a self portrait in the form of a collection of danbooru tags, which i then passed to another pile of linear algebra

i took a basically pitch black picture of our cat in a dark room and repeatedly ran it through my phone's "ai enhance" until it stopped changing

catchphrases

it turns out OpenAI's "chat to GPT" can produce SVGs if you ask it to. so here's some ai-generated fanart of some old Tumblr faves.

Create a file in SVG format. The file should contain a drawing of the Onceler. There should be a comic-style speech balloon next to the Onceler. The speech balloon should contain the Onceler's catchphrase.

prompt repeated for Hatsune Miku, Sans Undertale, and Karkat Vantas.

supplicant

prompt: 1girl, solo, praying, hands up, palms together, own hands together, closed eyes, expressionless, abstract background, (doll joints:1.5)

using a LoRA of katou danzou from F/GO for the hands

not super happy with the face here tbh. kinda hard to control that

[machine-saint-art]

gatekeeper

prompt: a teleportation wormhole portal to a nebula in an underground laboratory, science fiction, front page of artstation, art by tsutomu nihei and [h r giger], horror, unsettling, [clean lines:10], [sharp colors:10]

nearly the same prompt as portal, very different result

a dream in death

prompt: (most of) the monologue from "Static" by Godspeed You! Black Emperor

[machine-saint-art]

hi!

prompt: nousr robot, (high quality:1.5), 4k, uhd, sci-fi, octane render, masterpiece, futuristic theme, tight focus, depth of field, concept art, one robot, wearing a full face motorcycle helmet, machine, sleek, elegant design, smooth lines, simple design, detailed hands

requires nousr's robot diffusion. used controlnet to get the pose. hands still wound up a blurry mess but at least it's the right pose

[machine-saint-art]

ready for duty

prompt: flat colors, solo, full body, robot joints, android, standing, looking at viewer, drossel von flugel, [black bodysuit], armor, [breasts]

negative prompt: multiple girls, large breasts

had to do quite a bit of inpainting for this one. couldn't get the feet to come out right no matter what i did :( the 'multiple girls' negative prompt was an artifact from some earlier tries at making doll girls; it really wants to have a girl holding a doll, so i had to prompt that out.

experimenting with the new XL stable diffusion model and it still has my favorite shitty image generation model bias: Women Have Faces

figure and wild mask

made while trying to train a LoRA model (so no relevant prompt).
