[-] Murdoc@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 months ago

Kinda reminds me of the old stick fight videos.

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Haha yes! That's exactly what I was thinking when I prompted for these!!

Final prompt In the Bingilator: "Sailor moon drawn in a an etch-a-sketch the drawing is done with only one continuous line. one line that does not stop. Bing, THE LINE MUST NOT STOP OR LIFT OFF AS THAT IS HOW AN ETCH-A-SKETCH WORKS!" So many tries, so many.

Bonus not in the running (I think the bingilator was making fun of me a bit):

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Congrats on 3rd place! Seeing your prompts in the third image was very funny :)

[-] Ziggurat@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

I'm split on that one. It's amazing, and I really like the idea, but on the other hand you didn't kept it simple, neither in term of artwork nor in term of prompt. Take my upvote anyway :)

[-] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 2 points 6 months ago

I swear it started simple! I just wanted a little sketch, but I got upset...

Could this image suddenly be destroyed (half) by the shredder hidden inside?

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Sorry you didn't win this time, but I enjoyed the simplicity of it and you gave some of the most detailed prompting which is great to see.

[-] Quexotic@sh.itjust.works 8 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Couldn't get it to not do shading. Dall-e

Prompt:A simple black and white line drawing of 'Kilroy was here', featuring the iconic long-nosed, bald-headed character peeking over a wall with just the fingers of his hands visible over the edge. The drawing should capture the essence of this World War II graffiti symbol in a minimalist style, focusing on clean lines and clear depiction of the character's peeking gesture. The background should be plain to keep the attention on Kilroy.

My actual prompt: Make me a Kilroy was here black and white line drawing. Keep it simple

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time. The Kilroy was an unexpected but fitting touch.

Ninja bunny.

Made with chat gpt 4.

Process: ask gpt 4 if it understands the kiss concept with reference to the Wikipedia page. After getting sure that gpt 4 is on the same page, ask gpt for pictures under the defined principle. I was not able to write "KISS" principle in the prompt as KISS seems to be censored.

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time. The samurai/ninja bunny was very interesting however!

[-] thelsim@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 months ago

💋 KISS 💋


Prompt: minimalist style of pouty puckered lips

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time, but this piece was one of my favourites for what its worth.

[-] thelsim@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Oh well, better luck next time.
I’m just happy to hear you enjoyed it! :)

[-] Halcyon@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 6 months ago

Single line Kiss

Prompt: draw a picture of a kissing lips symbol in the style of Picasso's single line drawings. it should illustrate the KISS design principles (KISS = "Keep it simple, stupid"). the picture should follow the kiss principles itself and therefore should be very simple and straightforward.

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time. But I loved this piece a lot, looks super professional.

[-] Halcyon@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 6 months ago

Add on: something funny from the prompt history

During the creation process, I went through several attempts, because in the beginning, the Image Creator did not really produce minimalist graphics.

In one of the iterations, instead of creating another picture as prompted, Bing came up with a pun about "one-line drawing" which I screenshotted. I found it quite clever:

[-] Ziggurat@sh.itjust.works 6 points 6 months ago

Not really sure what we're supposed to here, so I went simple minimalist

Prompt : A red circle over a gradient background, a filled half-circle represents a smile Model RealVisXL V3.0

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time, and also sorry if I made the theme challenging for you. You did get the execution of the concept perfectly though!

[-] BlueEther@no.lastname.nz 6 points 6 months ago

Keeping it KISS:

Created in Bing (I even kept the prompt minimalistic): a minimalist black and white photo of the band Kiss

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time. I like your literal interpretation of the theme however, and the bnw fits well with the band and the theme.

[-] WhatsHerBucket@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

DALL-E: simple, peaceful, zen, quiet, water, wave

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time, but your picture was very peaceful - feels like it would be a perfect fit for a relaxing calendar.

[-] boblemmy@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

I tried Chinese paintings of smiling face:

Prompt: A super-abstract condensed Chinese ink painting on beige rice paper about a toddler's smiling face, with empty margins around the face, symbolized, minimalist, (faint few strokes)1.5, (childish)1.5

Negative Prompt: (signature)1.5, (text)1.5, watermark, ugly, uncanny, border, frame, desk, wall, pen, red, photo, oil paint, large-area coloring

GUI: EasyDiffusion

Model: A SDXL 1.0 model merged myself, is complex in terms of source and weight

Other results:

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

That second last one encapsulates trying to take a photo of a child so well.

Copilot

Prompt: create a sketchbook drawing of the great pyramid of giza. make it lightly drawn with black pencil only with short steady strokes of the pencil. make it look like a drawing on a notepad.

[-] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Niji Journey: midjourney V6 model

Prompt: A minimalist line drawing of a woman in a string bikini full body view, holding a tame pangolin, in the style of Aleksandra Gruszczyk

A couple Bonus

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time, but it was certainly one of the most unique pieces around

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Went back and forth with Bing experimenting with different styles and landed with something I liked.

A pop art image done with lines only, depicting a serene moonlit night with auroras and permeating lines, with more surreal and minimalist style, more evocative than literal details

Runner ups

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time. I like how your final version feels like one of those scratchy-paper sheets that have the colour underneath, interesting style.

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago

That's a very apt comparison. It didn't occur to me while working on this but I do love those so that's porbbaly why this was the one I selected.

[-] merde@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 months ago
[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Sorry you didn't win this time, but eye I enjoyed how despite being a detailed image the concept itself was simplistic and worked well. (If you shared your prompt you'd be able to a free point)

[-] ItsAFake@lemmus.org 4 points 6 months ago

minimalistic representation of a face smiling in the style of monochrome minimalism --v 6.0

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Congrats on coming third. I feel like it must have taken a fair few generations to get the dual imagery to work well.

[-] Trollivier@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago

Not as simplistic as I wanted. I tried loads of prompts and my instructions for simplistic, crude drawings, even stick figure drawings were all ignored. Here we go anyway.

Here's the prompt that generated this particular image.

A charcoal cartoonish drawing of a tree holding a brush and a color palette in a forest. Next to the tree, there is an easel and a canvas with a portrait of Bob Ross.

[-] Deceptichum@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Sorry you didn't win this time, keep trying though as this was a very different take on a classic theme and got a chuckle out of me :)

[-] Trollivier@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Mission accomplished
