Generative Platform News from Last Week

  • DALLE-3 expected to be released in October

  • Significantly more nuanced than previous versions.

  • Can incorporate words into images.

  • Ideogram is a new start-up generative art platform and is currently free to use.

  • Very good for creating images which also incorporate words or slogans.

Prompt Ideas

This week’s prompt idea is to use the style ‘Hyper-Detailed Illustration’. Hyper-detailed illustration is a form of digital art characterized by its intricate details, precision, and realism. Artists who specialize in this style often invest an enormous amount of time and effort into creating complex textures, shadows, and light effects to bring their creations to life. Every element, from the intricate patterns on fabrics to the minute details on surfaces, is rendered with meticulous attention to achieve a level of realism that is almost photographic.

Remember to send us your results (to [email protected]) and the the best image as judged by the editorial staff will feature in next weeks newsletter.
