Snake meeting Sarah Kerrigan to give her a gift!
Sarah returning the favor.
I knew from the start I wanted Snake in the mix, and I immediately knew what day would fit. A stealth-focused character just seemed a good mix when you have to set it in or near water. I threw Kerrigan in because A) she's cool, and B) I thought she'd pair well Snake, both being stealth-based.
This was a really tough one, and I know it's because I was asking for a lot. The swans were spazzing out and turning into freakish mutants, and I didn't do myself any favors trying to generate two characters that I wanted specific looks for at the same time. The whole thing took ages and, while I'm relatively happy with the results, it still wasn't exactly what I wanted. I wanted to lean in more to the stealth angle, which was the whole inspiration, but couldn't get it to really represent stealth and movement.
Here are a few things to illustrate more what I wanted initially:
Sarah and snake crouching.
They're smuggling presents!
Eh.
Bonus that went off topic and doesn't capture the feel, but is awesome.
Super creative shots!
edit: love the checkpoint/model you did for Kerrigan. That's pretty much what I'd want from an anime-ized Sarah. She can be a tough one depending on the model.
Thanks!
As to my methods...rather unsophisticated and brute force. I don't know much about AI image generators, honestly.
I looked it up, it looks like the generator on the site I use uses Flux AI, so I guess that's the base.
I am thinking of getting into it more, might download the one arglide mentioned previously, to start with. I'll have to look into it. Mine is pretty limited, at the moment.
