Surrounded by his team, the coach sits at the center of the locker room, a beacon of wisdom and strategy. Silence hangs in the air as his words penetrate the hearts and minds of the athletes, sculpting raw talent into a cohesive unit. Soon, these players will emerge as warriors, carrying the weight of their coach’s guidance and their collective dreams onto the battlefield of sport.
This is a reimagining of an old render I created in Midjourney back in June 2023. I used the original render as an image prompt in Fooocus v2, which allowed me to recreate it in a style that better matches what I had in mind initially.
While I’ve always been impressed with Midjourney’s ability to compose large groups of people, I find I prefer the controllability and rendering quality of Stable Diffusion. This new version combines the best of both worlds, giving me the composition I liked from Midjourney with the fine-tuned control and output quality I appreciate in Stable Diffusion.
