Same prompt, 6 models (looking for a GPT replacment in my standard choices) (oops! Got flux 1.1 Pro in there twice - didn't care for Kling 3 Iamge results at all)
Prompt
Soft-graded porcelain skin with hard rosy circular blush and stylized doll-like features, drawn in stark decorative black contour against flat solid-black silhouette masses · high-chroma crimson, teal, and gold accents as crisp bold-outlined saturated shapes punching through a dark, earthy, desaturated parchment ground · mixed-media surface of ink bleed, splatter, drip, and aged grain · dense maximalist collage rhythm entangling botanicals, butterflies, and symbolic objects, carrying memento-mori ornamental density. Theatrical, doll-like melancholy. Two pale-skinned adult figures with sharp jet-black hair, crimson lips and circular red-rouged cheeks, posed in near-profile, one leaning toward the other in quiet intimate tension, adorned with red blossoms, single teardrop ink streaks, and cryptic lettering painted along a bare forearm. Scene set in a collaged dreamscape during timeless dusk, with a melancholic romantic atmosphere, featuring vivid butterflies, a cluster of red roses, a pale floating skull, scattered dried botanicals, aged ledger paper, stamped letters, and dripping watercolor washes bleeding into the borders.

midjourney is so expensive. Its minimum 4 images. I get two terrible, one ok, and one good. Still 4x more expensive then other single run models.
@justrob ·
not often - these were not cropped - i may have run some of them in 1x1 rather then my normal 3x4 because i forget to review them...
@justrob ·
these were all the same size - just the models doing different AI things i guess.
