Results:
Dagoth Ur won so handily I didn't even wait for the poll to finish before making him (not that anyone voted). As the runner up, I did Arcanum portraits. I'll do Bond in a few days then move onto some other stuff.
Original:
I’ve got the data set for the last of a set of girls I was working on cleaned and plan to tag and train that as soon as I get the buzz in. This will leave me free to move on to a few more experimental ideas I have. I’ve got most of the training data set for these four collected and don’t anticipate extensive cleaning being needed or having to agonize over tagging so I can likely do these as soon as the blue buzz comes in. What I’m more concerned about is if anyone will use any since they aren’t cute girls. As such I decided to put it to a poll. I'll likely do all the ones that see sufficient interest.
(All options would be made for Pony, as that's the only model I've got experience in)
The Options
James Bond (Daily Express Comics)
Before Connery was ever considered for the role, James Bond appeared visually in a series of Daily Express newspaper comics. Rather than being based on any actor, Bond’s appearance in these strips was based on a sketch commissioned and directed by Fleming himself. This sketch was then taken by the strip’s artist who modified the design to be more “manly” and less “prewar” for the final comics.
Short of applying some shenanigans (with non-SD AI?) to the original sketch (I’m sure some program could turn it into a 3D model) I think this would be as close to Felming’s idea of the character as possible. It would also not be a real person’s likeness, so no on-site generator/posting restrictions.
(I'd welcome any tag suggestions for Bond's comma shaped lock. It was mentioned in the books but I'm not sure any tags for it)
Dagoth Ur
Main antagonist of The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. Besides such a LoRA honoring the Sixth House and the Tribe Unmourned, I can think he would be funny to combine with various meme LoRAs. Also I’m sure it would combine well with the already replicated voice.
As Dagoth Ur took a commanding lead, I have gone ahead and trained him so I could enter the result into the Halloween contest. You can find the LoRA for him here. You can still vote for the others to decide what I do next.
Golden Sun Djinn (GS1/2 designs only)
My Djinn LoRA is my LoRA I most consider to have failed, at least for non-Mercury types. I want to see if more consistency, removing the DD designs, and changing the tags (not telling it the Venus Djinn’s things are arms) will fix it.
Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura Portraits Style
A LoRA to imitate the style of the portraits from the 2001 video game Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura.
