Variety - Project: Bikini Mother Displacer of the Moon
I was always told to name everything in art school, so don't mind the bizarre post title and let's go over these bounties.
I don't know anything about Paladins, so I studied up on Io, who apparently is a moon goddess that's gathering pieces of the shattered moon. She also seems to have a wolf theme what with the ears and her familiar, so I thought a glow of an energy or aura in the shape of a wolf could be releasing from her somehow would be neat. I tried soul projecting, silhouettes, angelic glows, yet none of them really altered her in a drastic way, but the chakra mode somehow sprouted a wolf spirit of some kind, so I ran with it. I tried a few things that tied to her such as having her with the moon, turning her into a wolf girl, and made her an alicorn with a cracked horn to symbolize to the shattered moon she came from and is reforging.
From one paladin to another, the lounging women were part of a bounty that displayed swimsuits for one last hurrah for summer. I tried to be inventive by giving the dragon girl a metal bikini to withstand those lava baths, the druid with a leaf bikini for a pond, but the paladin was the one that didn't work out the way I wanted. I wanted her to be bathing in pure light with a kind of divine bikini on. It got the bikini right, but it couldn't understand the light part. The best I could do was a hidden grotto with sunrays beaming in. It turned out nice, but that lake of light would've really sold it.
Lorem... she honestly looked like what inspired Guardian Tale's Beth, so I tried a wardrobe switch on them (that bra of hers kept popping over her shirt however). I didn't really have a lot of ideas for her as everything I had could be best summed up in the image of her holding the pillow. Due to CivitAI's restrictions, I'm unable to put in the word 'Baby' in the prompt, meaning our motherly character now has no real drive anymore. I understand why Civit doesn't allow babies or children in their prompts and it extends to something higher than them, but come on, it still needs to get by a admin, so why ruin it for everyone only to stop the few who use it for means that are looked down upon? People who are into those things have ways of getting around it, even if it means for them to ignore the facts and envision it to be in their fetish. So no baby bottles, no baby toys, no baby crib, no baby cradling, nothing to really sell Lorem for her motherly nature. The only thing I could pull off that ties her motherhood is the downtimes where she's exhausted, so there you have it.
Now... the displacement beast... I've dealt with this LoRA before, and my experience with it now is the same as it was before, ...those bloody tentacles. They never wanted to work right as it kept growing multiples of them, placing them in unintended spots, stitching them together, and making them disembodied. I tried to play off the idea that they were liquid based and retractable when I made the demon lion, but now that the bounty wants it, the chances of getting it right is likely as good as me getting that first image of Io. My only suggestion is that using a squid LoRA to provide some reference for what a tentacle looks like, but 4 times out of 5, they kept blending together to form a loop. There were 2 bounties however and the other was more for fun, so I made attempts. Pink Panther didn't work too well, there was no LoRA intended to turn them into a Mobian, but there was a Sonic pose I found. One attempt later, I was met with a troll face from the feline and found it suiting.
