And older look for Yasha that's just brilliant. Also... Time travel via cinching? You've got my attention.

You're gonna spoil him 😂

🍽️ Try Not to Break

He's so cheeky, it's hard not to love him.

I love how your can just very slightly see his "Falte Mich" tattoo!
I was meant to remove it on younger Helmut but didn't really finish this picture past the render.

Two Folds

It's like I can hear the percussion soundtrack. You got the lighting so perfect here... You perfectly captured that instant of stillness after the get into position, and before they get into the next one.

I think Leslie is the only one here still able to change the pose somewhat, Helmut is pretty much turned into a piece of living furniture for a few minutes 😂
Imagine Leslie doing his reverse pose of Helmut's at the same time.

👑 The Prince's New Clothes

I... I... I... This...

Embarassing but fun... I'll probably never have enough skills and assets to depict their mansion... 😅

🥣 Prince of Beggars

God fucking damn it... This is going to sound weird, but it reminds me of Vermeer.
-tbj
Had to look it up... His famous painting is actually very popular with AI-users, but I haven't used any kind of painter names in this work myself...
Very nice and more Martin in any format is always welcome...
😊

🧽 Soft Rock

I love how you're building out this character. I can't even imagine where his story goes next, and I love that.
-tbj
To be honest I don't know either 🤣

A very sexy blast from the past. Don't tell me you took his toy away??
-tbj
Thank you so much! If you mean his whanger, I think it's still on him :D

🌷 Soft Bone Kung Fu

Just a really nice character study. You make these interesting, every time.
-tbj
I'm very glad it was interesting! ^^

🗝️ Key to the Gate

I love seeing more of Nab. He's so beautiful and so interesting looking, and I'm glad you're doing more with him. I'm also super happy to see you doing some kind of sequential storytelling. More like vignettes than a proper comic, but I think it works better with your style and your writing.

Please keep going.
-tbj
Thank you so much! Reading that you think the little vignettes match my style better than some full scale stories made me cheer up a bit, since creating some bigger project has always been my biggest problem...

You don't get enough credit for your humour. It's so dry and perfectly aimed. I love it.
-tbj
Thank you!

So effing good. I love your stories because they immediately drop me into a very enjoyable world with characters I love.
-tbj
I'm very glad you like them!

❄️ Winter Fairytale

I finally had time to sit down and read this... Your writing is always amazing. You're brilliant at building a world quickly and establishing characters right away. It's brilliant.
-tbj
I'm very glad you like it, I only wish I had the same enjoyment in these results as you do!

My dear Yuni! I have some experience in creating images in AI. I have had different pictures. Both with reference to famous works, and using random images, and just generating plain text without any reference.
Some of the work you may have seen on DA. I have a lot of images. Some time ago you liked my picture of a beautiful boy on a broomstick made for Halloween.
Yeah, I remember the broomstick boy and the AI images 😁
Wonderful work! AI is sometimes unpredictable - it can produce heavenly beauty or demons from the underworld.
You make it sound like AI can just produce a picture like this from a simple text prompt and all you need is luck... I don't think it's possible to write some long text prompt, describing all these details, and ever get a picture like this even after 1000 rerolls...

Well, theoretically maybe you can, if you use a custom model full of scans of great artists who made artworks very similar to this, then you use their names in the prompt, but then you basically get a stolen copy of an existing artwork as a result... AI is known for stealing whole chunks of existing artworks and if you've never seen those artworks that doesn't make your generated picture "new" or "unique". If your text-to-image picture looks good, it's almost 100% "stolen" by the algorithm. "Stealing" in this case means the algorithm transferred a huge chunk of an existing artwork into the result and that's the only reason your text-to-image looks good.

Me, I don't want to generate a picture that's just a randomly mangled copy of someone's existing artwork, so I don't use custom models and I don't use artist names or words like "Artstation"... I just make something like a generic guy, then start changing things with simple worlds like "long blond hair", "muscled chest", "ornamented shoulder paddings", "golden cloak" etc, blending everything together in Photoshop, just small parts at a time... This guy didn't even have a forest behind him or long hair. I mean, AI is great as part of the workflow but it certainly didn't "produce" this picture.
