Alex and the Ender Dragon: Upscales, Tests, Outtakes (see description)

More about Alex and the Ender Dragon: Upscales, Tests, Outtakes (see description)

A collection of additional images around my Alex and Ender Dragon dreams:

1. and 2. are just upscales, done with the DDG upscaler. I'm quite disappointed about the agressive smoothing that the upscaler does on some fine structures, here affecting especially the clouds, the dragon, and the wet road.
Compare these upscaled images to the original images "Alex the Ender Dragon slayer 4" and "We had a fatal leak at the End Portal 4".

3. and 4. are tests with Z-Image Turbo. Apparently worlds apart from the results I got from ChatGPT 2. The dragon looks rather toy-ish, and the road and house are so boringly normal.
I tried this also with the prompt of the "Alex the Ender Dragon slayer 4" image, but there Z-Image Turbo was completely overloaded, drawing Alex with artefacts like a third leg or detached arms. Obviously the scene was just too complex.

5. Skipped because the car wasn't driving on the road. But apart from that, it's quite impressive.
6. My first Alex attempt. After this, I decided she should also have a diamond sword.
7. Alex with a enchanted bow. What happened to the bowstring?
8. Nice that so much of Alex's face is visible. But where is she aiming?
9. After "Alex the Ender Dragon slayer 3" I wanted the arrows stuck in the dragon's underside instead of its back. In response, the AI messed up the entire dragon.

A stunning digital artwork depicts a female archer with long, braided red hair, wearing an olive green tunic and brown leggings, kneeling on one knee on a wet dirt road. She is aiming a purple glowing bow and arrow at a large, purple, scaly dragon hovering in the stormy night sky. The dragon breathes purple lightning towards the archer, while its body is impaled with several arrows. In the background, a cozy house with glowing yellow windows sits nestled among dark trees. The scene is illuminated by numerous bright lightning strikes, flashing across the dark, cloudy sky. Two wooden torches with blazing fires stand on either side of the archer, casting warm light on the wet ground. The pathway behind her reflects the light, and the overall mood is magical, dramatic, and intense.
