Liquid Blue
Setting up a workflow for #RefShuffle can be time-consuming due to the number of control nets involved. Typically, you only need two, but I often find myself using 4-5 because I like to test the responsiveness of Stable Diffusion to different images. Sometimes, I even use multiple images to drive different shuffles, each with their own variations in starting and ending steps.
When I have a good prompt and an associated image, I like to create a series out of it. During the same session when I created Grimy: Leather in Red, I composed this render using liquid, rope, and a male figure. The text prompt had similar settings, but I changed the driving color from red to blue, switched the dust to abstract expressionist paint and liquid, and added some ropes. Not every image had ropes, but where they did appear, they added visual interest to the overall composition. The ropes also serve as a subtle metaphor for strength, influencing the emotional impact of the image - at least, that’s my intention.
