Mechanical spider cowgirl flees — AI art by @CaylaCatz

Entry in the Maximum Mayhem and Comedy theme on BudgetPixel.
After I did my Beerbecue Bandit, @JMN told me about cartwheeling real live desert spiders. He demoed my gal cartwheeling. He warned me it's hard to do as models added too many legs. I had to try it tho. He was right! You don't want to know how much coin I put in and changed and edited the prompt. My conversatio with the AI "She has 8 legs" "No, you fool, that's like 10 legs. Oh wait you're adding the 8 legs to the arms. Ok, then she has 2 arms and six legs." "No, that's 9 legs!" "No, that's 5 legs!" "Dammit, can't you count???" "I hate you! That's 10 legs. I'm trying another model" "Geez you're just like the other guy! That's a lot of legs. She's like a mutant spider with 12 legs." "oh, finally! I love you! I adore you! Thank goodness somebody finally listened to my prompt" What you think I'm crazy? Like you don't talk to the AI when you prompt. Ewww you whisper sultry nothings into her ear. I can't hear this! Jmn's cartwheeling spider (his is better!) https://budgetpixel.com/p/87436 Beerbecue Bandit: https://budgetpixel.com/p/87354

Actually, a collaborative effort on a comic nook story has already begun! (Though, with thing being as they are, I don't know when it the frirst chapter will be ready for presentation - some charcters and the first two pages have been done. A modest beginning)

comic nook is keyboard-dyslexia induced by 'hurrying-through-notifications-while-at-work' for 'comic book' 😄😄 And since you had to endure THAT. I'll give you the title: "Summer In Sun City"

She is very happy at the thought of what is about to happen to those poor sheriffs! (who deserve it, btw) 🤪

DON'T SHOOT HER! She's too cute to shoot! (Sorry I'm just getting here now, I can't keep up with everything going on.)

Hahaha,Yes, you're crazy—but only a little; aren't we all? The image is good, though maybe it's missing the spider's abdomen a bit.

They do look alike. Nepotism! A gang of brothers running a town as sheriffs. You're right! They don't look like nice sheiffs....
panos
Ha! That posse sure ain't gonna catch 'er! (I am having such conversations with a very real advisor/commentator here... 🙂)

CaylaCatz
