I'd return to most of these veins later, once I figured out better gem excavation techniques. The success rate of these early attempts was like winning the lottery. These two represent me slowly pointing the drilling equipment towards the anime veins and Ashlyn, my OC. I hadn't get there yet.
One of the first things I noticed about how Dall-E 3 filtering works is that you can get away with more risky stuff by just putting it outside. So I did manage to extract a LOT of gems by telling the machine that the action is happening outdoors. The success rate here wasn't high, but it wasn't impossible, as the same prompts would had been if I had swapped the word "outdoors" for "indoors". Also, it was at this point I realized "Norman Rockwell" worked as a style prompt. Drawings in this "americana" style are not my thing. But hey, it was more gems. Because of personal preferences , one of the first things I always try when I'm breaking into a new vein is to check "Are there some goth girls inside?" YES. There were goths inside. If anything else, these are very funny.
