Since we're on Rising Stars, and we've gotten some interesting advice. The TLDR is that we should have a few backup covers. So here are our musings and random AI generations to try and make a cover.
First, AI cannot understand ears. Which is fascinatingly frustrating. Like really, It gives you ears based off other keywords, like 'catgirl' or 'elf' but doesn't actually seem to understand how to blend the two concepts. I love the dress, but no amount of coaxing gets those extra ears removed.

Now nothing is wrong with the next pic, but nothing is write. The double ears are hidden, but somehow still immediately noticeable. Blue isn't a Nyota color at all.

Prettier, much brighter, but still blue.

Have we established that AI really likes BLUE? I'm like 30 prompts in and asking for silver, black and grey. But nope, It gives me blue.

I love this one, but... Why are there collars on her ears? And she's too blonde.

This screams old west barmaid with bedroom eyes...

I love this one, like 8/10. It has everything I picture Nyota as. It's not perfect, and certainly not purrfect, but pretty great.

If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
Too young, too blonde, but it could be one of the [spoilers]... Also, clothing is too modern.

I have yet to find an AI that doesn't consider Maids to be "sexy".

big version of cover... I think...

Big version of the ad...

Here's something I was toying with... but... Green looks too good. I don't get the "I was struck by lightning" vibe from that fancy suit.

I swear... All I did was ask for an asian catgirl... How we got a sexy stewardess out of that is a mystery I will never be able to comprehend.

Not bad, technically correct, but Nyota looks really old...

Apparently catgirls must always be accompanied by cats...? Although... hehehe, This might count as a spoiler...

I like Nyota here, but something's wrong with her hands, the palms and fingers are too small. Which... Would probably be correct. But, we've abused the felinids enough, I don't really want to write about having their fingernails filed off...

Think this guy counts as a werewolf?

If they became doctors together...

Which one is the catgirl...?

Why do they both have glasses? Talk about uncanny

The eye difference is all I can see...
