Never said you couldn't make impressive stuff with SD but feel free to share those comics.

Models on CivitAI are okay. Cool if you're looking for a certain style and/or want to create something that looks like the training images but style isn't everything.

Midjourney generates much better than "slightly better images" and the very fact you say this just tells me you've not even used the thing in any real capacity.



I am very familiar with MJ and know very well how SD can be used to generate images.

I am the author of submissions such as: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35181433, and I am one of the people responsible for the enthusiasm behind the performance of MJ v5.

But no, MJ is not much better if you know how to use SD, although if what you did with SD was just put a prompt in a huggingface space, I can understand why you say that.

>I never said you can't do impressive things with SD, but feel free to share these comics.

I am arguing that they are better than any comics made with MJ, not that they are simply impressive, that's really the entire point. I know some on Pixiv, you can look them up if you want; I am not linking them for obvious reasons (to say they are NSFW is putting it mildly).


I saw a random perfectly SFW fanart on pixiv just now I was surprised to see was SD-based.

Though, if they're training off official character art that's less cool than reinterpreting it themselves. Means you don't have a "house style".

I'm the person behind these - [url-redacted]

I think it's safe to say i know something about SD's capabilities.

>I am arguing that they are better than any comics made with MJ, not that they are simply impressive, that's really the entire point.

Sure that's why i'm asking you to link these comics that are supposedly better than anything Midjourney has ever produced. With a claim like that, i'm sure you understand wanting to see results.

>You can go look them up on Pixiv if you want, they host some; I am not linking them for obvious reasons (to say they are NSFW is putting it mildly).

So you can't link anything that isn't NSFW on pixiv? Lol, that just solidifies my point. Frankly if the best you can come up with is pseudo porn(or maybe not pseudo lol) on pixiv (i don't imagine any readers of that will care about the things i'm looking for) then that's not a very good look.


You seem surprise that porn brings innovation, but you shouldn't if there has to be someone obsessed with creating the best possible illustration, it is indeed a Pixiv user or more generally a user who wants to create porn of their favorite character; moreover, I know these comics not because I have a weird obsession with going to read comics that were created by an AI, I know them because they are good enough to have gone on trend as NSFW comics, whereas the comics made by MJ are known not because they are good comics but because they are made by MJ (so it's cool I guess), so I don't see how it can solidify your point of view ahah, if you can't control the generation every panel will look different, a collage of images, that's why the comics made by MJ seem to be known just because they are made by MJ and not because they are in the interest of others communities like NSFW comics on Pixiv. Also for this reason, I have not saved links to these posts, I found them randomly while browsing Pixiv, another reason why you should look for them yourself.
