About the Image and the Creator
I’m 25 years old and have studied communication design. Since I can remember I was fascinated by art in any form but always struggled to bring my own imagination on to a piece of paper. I’m not the best at drawing so I always used photography and music to communicate my thoughts.
I recently discovered Ai Art and could finally somewhat visualise the image in my head to a real image. I still struggle to say, that I created the image as I know how much work talented artists put into their artworks. Comparing their work to any image I made using AI would be insolent. It’s a great tool nonetheless.
So far, I gained a little bit of experience using Starryai and Disco Diffusion. Starryai was a great tool to start with and experiment on different prompts and settings. For this image I used the Orion Ai (Clip Guided Diffusion BETA), 600 iterations and an initial image to get the colours to match the underwater theme, as previous prompts failed to recreate the typical look of an image taken underwater.
Using this as an initial image, I got pretty good consistent results and tried tweaking the prompt until I got an image I like.
“Modern building underwater with street in front and lava river by Greg Rutkowski and Seb Mckinnon, overgrown buildings street lights water refraction, artstation”
The lava river came out more like lava seaweed to be honest but as Bob Ross would say: “It’s a happy accident.”
As a final step, I applied minor colour corrections using Lightroom and upscaled the image using Gigapixel.
Thanks to the wonderful community that has been taking part in the competitions. We look forward to bringing you more great creations and wonderful prizes.
