rasiel Posted April 20 · Member Share Posted April 20 Just messing around with Photoshop tonight and I thought... what if I asked its AI to make fuller scenes based on the portraits? I started with this Licinius II and a few seconds later it came up with Ah, cool he's, uhh... running into battle. Let's clean this up and zoom out a bit Whooaaa!! Licinius' kid has horse DNA. He turned into a minotaur with a serious case of folliculitis. Better get that looked at. Let's switch tracks. How about my Julia Maesa denarius? What does she inspire? LOL! While I empathize with the scene of Maesa in a conga line I think it's a bit unseemly for an empress, no? Let's try again Ah, heh, yeah, I can see how she has that Victorian look. Give me more! This is pretty cool actually. To me it recalls maybe a Whistler painting leaning into surrealism. Finally, let's take a look at my solidus of Magnentius. What do you see here, Photoshop? Haha! Well, to be honest he does have a somewhat saintly look about him. Ok Photoshop, run with this. Dial it up a notch! Whoaaaaaaaaa!! Photoshop went too far. That's turning the dial to 11! I don't think I can look at my Maggie the same way again LOL Turn him into a sofa Photoshop. Yes, a sofa. 5 1 9 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rasiel Posted April 20 · Member Author Share Posted April 20 And this is Magnentius as a sofa (wouldn't fit into previous message). Anyway, where'd she come from? This is just weird. I do think it's a killer sofa for what it's worth 😅 Well, that's enough silliness for today :- ) Rasiel 5 3 2 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonshaw Posted April 20 · Supporter Share Posted April 20 (edited) Oh I like this - it made a fascinating frame for this electrum Lydia lion, rather than extending it: And another one, where it took the task more literally: Edited April 20 by Bonshaw 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anaximander Posted April 24 · Member Share Posted April 24 Those are some wondrous AI imaginings. I was reading a Numismatic Bibliomania Society (NBS) E-Sylum post https://www.coinbooks.org/v27/club_nbs_esylum_v27n14.html#article29 of a robbery at a California cash vault to which a Copilot AI-generated image was attached. Is there a man alive that can actually pick up one of the gold bars? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in that case the burglars must be about 3 feet tall. 😆 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benefactor LONGINUS Posted April 24 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted April 24 (edited) Excellent post! AI is great fun and since you have to describe in minute detail the type of image you want, it's a wonderful exercise in the power of using descriptive words to create an illustration. I haven't tried the Photoshop version yet. Edited April 24 by LONGINUS 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benefactor KenDorney Posted April 24 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted April 24 Someone posted these on facebook and I thought they would make a really cool silver bullion round. Kinda pricey to have made though. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
