Here are some less successful examples, though. 1: "Sudden Liar Arrival", pop art; 2: "Ebony Ice", Surrealism; 3: "Westersea", Romanticism; 4: "Rock Lightning", Aestheticism.
Tangent from that idea: I had some great fun messing with "prog rock" images. I should probably throw a whole list of musical genres in the prompt generator, really. (I already shared the goth Legos, right?)
One of the things I've investigated towards that end is which art styles the algorithm recognizes. For example, op art, baroque, fauvism, and art nouveau seem to work okay.
I tried to find out, once and for all, what a bunyip really looks like.
Okay, so here we've got another big name—The Temple of Elemental Evil—and again I've got a strong suspicion that the machine is familiar with the original art. Pretty great results, here.
Anyway, here's a REALLY good title: Against the Cult of the Reptile God! And those evocative words really did get some compelling stuff out of the algorithm. I think this would actually be worth iterating a bit.
I don't remember even hearing of Mystery of the Snow Pearls before, but I thought its long title would give Midjourney something to work with. Great Larry Elmore cover on the original! Can't say the machine did as well.
Anyway, time for an AD&D module. This is Steading of the Hill Giant Chief. I think the machine got the hills and the giant, all right! I don't think it's worse than the original cover.
Next, a module with one of the hands-down best covers ever: Temple of the Frog! Kinda fun results, but the machine sure can't beat the original.
Next is The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan! And I am always going to see that as "Tamoa-chan", who is presumably some kind of anime hobgoblin shrine maiden. Maybe Midjourney got a Japanese vibe from the title, too? Anyway, I love what it did, here.
