In preparation for the launch of book 2 I've been prompting a LOT of art to try and get some ads and cover art.

I was trying to get a picture of Pandora, but got this thing.

Dragon hydra... Why does it have so many legs? Who knows.

'Green Lizard'
Probably the most coherent and cleanest AI pic. Sadly, it's wrong in every way. No wings so it's not a dragon, one head so it's not a hydra. lol. I kinda want to use it as an ad... but don't feel right since it's not in the book...

Ad idea, it would have the caption of
'Step through the portal.'
'I don't bite'

Trying to get a picture of Quetzalcoatl

A laughing Quetzalcoatl.

A decent alternative cover art. Used it for a little bit. But it's purple and Pandora is supposed to be blue base. Cause once upon a time she was the goddess of water and rain.

Much bluer, Its a lot better. But it just doesn't feel eye catching enough. As a whole the picture lacks contrast, it's TOO blue. :/

Not quite how it went down, but this could totally have been Arlet's view as he marched away from Blackwood Castle.

I really want to run this as an ad,
SPOILER
This is Sarah.
I'm not explaining if this is in the future or past.
SPOILER
Caption
'DARK FANTASY'
or
'Psychopath'
or
idk, throw some ideas on the caption for this girl taking a cat nap.
'Genocide? How about catnaps?'

Imagine this dude slithered into your living room... Terrifying, just ignore the mobius strippy-ness of him.
Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

I copy and pasted the description of Liam and got this. But since he never had a young body, this is technically impossible. Though there is at least one vision where this could have been. Maybe when he appeared to Nyota in her dream, or when he spoke to Taloc aboard the Tartarus. (yeah, idk if i've called Taloc's prison the Tantalus or the Tartarus.)

Duke Aliyar Kheresh. Maybe.

This is proof that AI will never really replace humans.
My prompt for this was 'catgirl waifu'.
THIS IS JUST A CAT!
I kinda want to make it an ad
'catgirl waifu'
image [https://images.playground.com/417e1097c7a4475abb3129efd23247f8.jpeg]
The same catgirl waifu prompt gave me this... Confused yet?

I like this, but I don't think that umbraquin is to scale...
image [https://images.playground.com/53735033aec54aeda30d736b29129847.jpeg]
Here, have a happy umbraquin. Could be Orion laughing as he wins another game of cards.

If Sarah looked like this, would you forgive her?

Pretty close to my mental image of Lumiko. Who is that? Well, she's in book 2! lol.
image [https://images.playground.com/f8a2457bff584d0293b0a1c8b29e2a74.jpeg]
Book 2 involves a bit of a time jump. So the eclipsiarchs grow up. Meet adult Lyra, IF ONLY HER EARS MATCHED HER HAIR! AHHHHHH!
image [https://images.playground.com/6694a635c88a4c759be023712451573e.jpeg]
Another attempt at Lyra. still a miss.

Lumiko again, but the leather is too shiny. It has a more sci-fi vibe. Or cyberpunk vibe.

Well, I got Lyra's ears to match. Where did the uniform come from? No idea. Enjoy sailor catgirl.
image [https://images.playground.com/347077380ab6480eac8900cd9672337c.jpeg]
Lyra, again, where did the uniform come from?!?

I was told catgirls in hottubs do well for ads. lol. Feels too, harem-y though.
