Model Comparison - Generating Snakes

This mission started with my Animal Inspired Fashion theme in my Fashion Fans blog. I've generated snakes before with mixed success but this time I wanted the snake wrapped around the model's body. Close-ups with minimal snake visible and less wrapping is easier to get right. The one on the right, the flow of the snake is consistent and logical. The one on the left is not as clear, but it was feasible enough that I ended up sharing the image. However, neither followed my intention which was, "She is holding a ball python snake, wrapped perfectly around her arm." GPT 2.0 Medium Next came full length views to better show off the fashion but involved more complex snakes. While the prompt was simple, "Butler’s Wolf Snake draped around her neck" AI wanted to add more snake than I asked for. (Ball Python in middle) GPT 2.0 Medium Next, I decided to push the boundaries. These prompts asked for, "Ball python snake wrapped perfectly around her. Both woman and snake are looking directly at the viewer." GPT 2.0 Medium The low angle had a section of snake that levitates behind her instead of resting around her neck. The one on the right is the one I ended up posting. Then @nothingbuttwet mentioned in a comment having an idea and wanting to try something with a fictional red python. I loved the idea of red python and had already started playing with the concept when @nothingbuttwet posted a woman wearing nothing but the red python. This shifted my gears to wanting to something with that concept. However, I prefer GPT and GPT doesn't do NSFW, but I started there to see what I could do. I started with here standing. "She is wearing a red python snake. Snake wrapped perfectly around her as her attire. Minimal snake, only what is necessary and makes sense, consistent snake. One snake. Both woman and snake are looking directly at the viewer." GPT 2.0 Medium That's a lot of snake and snake parts that don't make sense. I like the image on the left, but it suffers from deflated snake syndrome across her thigh. Attempts to remedy that were unsuccessful. The next two images look really good but there are snake body issues. At this point, I decided to give a couple other models a try. Flux 1.1 pro made the image a portrait with barely any snake visible. Not even worth the share. With same prompt as above, this is wan 2.7, recraft v4 and seedream 5.0 pro. Not thrilled with the quality of wan but the snake could make sense. Recraft is a fun image and I love her nails, but that is way too much snake. Seedream is also an overall nice image but again way too much snake. Last, I decided to have the model sit figuring less body for the snake to cover may allow for a consistent, logical snake. The snake part of the prompts was, "She is wearing a red python snake. Snake wrapped perfectly around her as her attire while she sits on a rock. Minimal snake, only what is necessary and makes sense, consistent snake. One snake. Both woman and snake are looking directly at the viewer." GPT 2.0 medium The one on the left is not completely logical but not overwhelmed with snake like the other two images. In addition, we can see deflating sections of the snake being an issue again. Since I now have way too many snake images I figured I may as well write a blog, so why not try this new seated position with other models. Seedream 5 pro, recraft v4 and flux 2 pro. Still snake problems all around. At this point, it was clear I don't know how to prompt for what I want in a way AI will understand. I should have called it done, but qwen image 3 and qwen image 3 pro were just released on BudgetPixel today so I figured, why not give them a try. Qwen image 3 pro and qwen image 3 This model didn't go as overboard as some of the other models. I can mostly convince myself the flow of the snake makes sense, however, I'm not thrilled with image quality and she isn't quite wearing the snake as I intended. So that's a wrap for this blog. Hope you enjoyed it. If you've got any snake prompting tips, please share them in the comments. Lastly, don't forget to clap the blog (up to 20 times per user)!
