No. 246 Queen Marika the Eternal 357p (Patreon)

Let a new epoch begin. An epoch glistening with life. Brandish the Elden Ring, for the Age of the Erdtree!

Queen Marika is a god and the current vessel of the Elden Ring. She reigns as the divine sovereign of the Lands Between, and her Demigod offspring are shardbearers in possession of the Great Runes. She has been missing for quite some time.

From the outside, many people think you just need to type a few words to get a beautiful image. But anyone experienced with Stable Diffusion knows: to create an image that is accurate, visually pleasing, and consistent, it can take hours—or even days—of experimenting with prompts, adjusting seeds, weights, LoRAs, and even sentence structure. Sometimes, changing just a single word or the order of a phrase can completely alter the final result.

Behind the scenes sharing the creative process:

The process of creating an album begins with an idea.

For content creators, ideas are the most important thing. There are thousands of possible ideas—but in reality, there are none—because while you can theoretically do many things, you’re often only able to pursue the ones you genuinely like.

Once you have an idea you're passionate about, the next step is to determine whether it’s feasible. Many ideas can’t be realized due to limitations—either personal or technical, such as software constraints.

After confirming the idea is doable, I start looking for a suitable LoRA to match it. I then write some short prompts and run tests. Of course, the initial results are rarely beautiful. After an entire day of experimenting with different models, LoRAs, and prompt variations—tweaking individual words, adding or removing elements, and reordering them—I begin to evaluate the outcomes. There will be many variations, but I have to decide which direction works best, which prompts to keep, and which model conveys the concept most effectively.

If I'm lucky, everything aligns and high-quality images are produced. But if I'm unlucky, persistent errors may occur—errors I can’t fix. In that case, the entire album must be scrapped, and the idea may never be realized.
