I made a python script and some SQL to generate this result which removes a lot of the tedium.So this really, really helped! Thanks for othis intiative. Was in a rush this morning but was still able to give the prizes within a few minutes.
Thank you I’ll take care of it this afternoon.
Sure, take your time :)
Might be tomorrow after all :P
It is done now :)
Is that Dani Filth in the background?
If it is, it’s unintentional. Kinda looks like a mix of Dani and Jesus.
i liked this more but chose naruto over mickey as mickey is still cute and the theme is “… to brutal”
Prompt: airbrush drawing, heavy metal style, of a pink Care Bear with a heart on its belly, pointing his sword high towards the sky and shouting, looking up at the dark sky, wearing a chainmail loincloth, on a mountain in hell, red flames in the background, highly detailed, symmetrical composition, dramatic lighting --ar 3:4 --stylize 75On a side note, to whomever wins this challenge, I would love to see a reverse to this theme as well :)
This makes me think of the VR game no more rainbows! It looks cool! Care bear gone berserk!
First thing I thought was “Manowar, Manowar, living on the road!” - Kings of Metal.
Yea, that was the 80s metal kind of theme I was going for.
Also, the codpiece on that bear was just too good to pass up on :)
same :)
i had friends who were manowar fans. “other bands play, manowar kill” was a confusing statement for me
You get the second place, along with the “Most original” mention. Congrats! The strong reference to Manowar made it happen :)
Prompt: A metal rock band with pomeranian performers playing instruments with their paws (Copilot)
Tinkerbell and the Destroyers on the 2024 Bad Fingers World Tour
Fingers are hard :(
My prompt started with: tinkerbell death metal band
It ended with: the band should have a dark, gothic appearance with black and silver attire, possibly adorned with spikes and chains. Their wings can have a more jagged, bat-like appearance, and the makeup can be heavy with black eyeliner and dark lipstick. The background can be a dark forest with a mystical, eerie atmosphere.
This was the 2nd choice (and not an entry).
Yes, I saw it said heavy metal in the prompt, but the heavy metal fairies just didn’t cut it.
Feels more black than death, but that’s cool.
How do we vote for the 2nd choice?
It was a tough call! What do you like about it?
That it looks less like she is a lowly member of a group taking direction from someone offscreen to the left; and more that she herself is a boss. Just personal preference. I like powerful, confident people that are actively driving forward their own things.
That’s interesting, I interpreted the first one more like she was making sure the rest of the band were following her lead.
Interesting interpretation. It’s like: is the glass half full or half full in a different way
Of all cute things to metallize, you chose Tinkerbell. Great idea, and my favorite as well, which puts you in first place! Congrats! P.S. : You have no idea how hard it was to generate the metal horns with Midjourney! So it’s well deserved :)

Prompt: The Gingerbread Man from Shrek as a Heavy Metal Guitarist in a hot oven/hell themed background, death metal makeup made from confectionary.
Ran through Bing & Luma.
Raijin’s Wrath
Prompt: Pikachu in the style of a Black Metal cover artwork, looking very angry and evil, screaming, with sharp teeth, wrinkled skin, corpse paint and a double viking axe guitar. There’s a cryptic thorny black metal band logo above its head. In the background there’s a Transylvanian medieval castle, dead trees, a crescent moon and some crows. The whole picture is in greyscales only.
Congratulation my friend, you get the 3rd place for that very worthy verion of Pikachu. Shall I call it Pukachu? :) (You would have scored a “OP’s favorite” point with the second picture in the list of your alternatives). Good job!
I tried to make a Pikachu too, but they all came out looking stuffed. I didn’t even think of making it like a comic book. Idky.
Good job
I really had difficulty to decide which picture I was going to upload here, I got many different results that were great. Here some others:
The first to are so good omg

Heavy Metal Jonny Bravo is just Duke Nukem
Anne of Black Gables
copilot prompt
Anne of Green gables, as a goth. she standing before a large summoning circle, with a small bloody ornate dagger, attempting to summon a demon. behind her are altars covered with candles and occult memorabilia. her expression is wild and dangerous. very dark background. intense atmosphere.
I’ma be honest, the little I know of black metal fashion comes from Vegan Black Metal Chef, but as always, once I got an idea in my head I couldn’t let go of it.
I remember reading ‘Anne of Green Gables’—she was just a girl looking for peace, often misunderstood, much like her first encounter with Rachel Lynde. Anne wasn’t the villain; she was often the victim of harsh judgments. I’m glad they became friends in the end.
I don’t think I’ve ever read it, tbh… But growing up in Atlantic Canada, she is inescapable.
True, but it’s her home, and the criticism is unfounded. You might enjoy reading it someday.
Wait, what criticism?
I’ve never heard anything bad about it, I just never got around to reading it (it’s not really my jam).

I finally took the time to re-install a local version of SD after changing PC in the spring, so I have now my own comfyUI rather than an online version (tbh, getimg.ai provides a good service for the price) So I tried something simple to test comfyUI, and here it is. !
Prompt

Pretty simple. Hello kitty with the lyrics of a gruesome song. I also added human as a negative prompt.
prompt
Hello kitty Screams were so loud, the tearing of flesh caused agonizing pain Wrought-iron tines did penetrate the skull Holes through the bones, holes through the organs Powerful thrusts of hatred from the blackest of souls Piercing the skin with violence so brutal, cannot be explained This evil is never contained By stabbing the bones, by stabbing the organs Powerful thrusts of hatred will claim one more soul Gouging attack, punctured Vicious assault, torture Gashing away, ruptured Heinous relief, die Dispersal of bones, decaying of organs Powerful thrusts of hatred, life from the living I stole Killing again with violence so brutal cannot be explained This evil has always sustained Gouging attack punctured Vicious assault, torture Gashing away, ruptured Heinous relief, die Screams were so loud, the tearing of flesh caused agonizing pain Wrought-iron tines did penetrate the skull Penetrate the skull Penetrate the skull Penetrate the skull Pitchfork impalement Savagely torn and covered in blood Murdered relentlessly, lacking remorse for what has been done As the next victim screams “Pitchfork impalement!” Gouging attack, punctured Vicious assault, torture Gashing away, ruptured Heinous relief, die
it probably sounds like this
