Photo Booth training by Open Art

Open Art trained on my style in their Photo Booth feature -- and then the AI program generated fake Krrrl figure drawings:

Note:  The two music selections for the video above were generated by AI from the first and the last image, in the image-to-music program of Melobytes.

 

Photo Booth cost $10 and will generate 400 images from my style model.  After a month my CKPT model (about 2 gigs) goes away.  However I can download the CKPT model file and use it in Stable Diffusion.


YouTube tutorials:

I "trained" this model on the first 20 drawings from my book "Finish My Figure Drawings." Note:  I trained on the web sized drawing, approximately 640 pixels in height and width:



The Photo Booth program automatically cropped my images because it only works with square images.  While it did allow me to crop the images myself, I accepted their default cropping.


I input "woman" as a class, since most of my figure drawings are of women:

It took about an hour to train on my style.  Then it was ready to generate images:

This is not a Rhinoceros
(homage to Magritte)

The prompts do not always deliver.  There is NO "rhinoceros" in the image below.  But then again, I trained on 20 of my figure drawings, so perhaps my CKPT model does not even know what a "rhinoceros" is:

prompt: "rhinoceros"

Likewise, the generated image below may not be of a woman, but it is definitely not of a "woman riding a rhinoceros."

prompt:"woman riding a rhinoceros"
I like the abstract qualities
of this figure generation



Previous Failure
Colab Dream Booth

A month or two back I could not get the Colab for Dream Booth to work for me in this program --DreamBooth_Stable_Diffusion.ipynb.  It stalled out by failing to upload folder.  I believe that the program used a lot of resources, so I am not sure if my computer and graphics card were inadequate, or I needed to pay for a Colab Pro account to get enough muscle to run it.




PREVIOUS FAKE KRRRL DRAWINGS
 
2020
Runway ML

In 2020, AI generated infinite Fake Krrrl Drawings after I trained the StyleGAN2 in Runway ML on 348 of my long figure drawings:

Fake Krrrl drawings of 2020



2021
Playform

In 2021 on the Playform website, we trained Robert Atkinson's AI creations to alter my figure drawings:






CONCLUSION

Photo Booth was easy and painless to use in Open Art, and was worth the $10 cost.  It generated a lot better fake Krrrl drawings than the StyleGAN2 program in Runway ML two years ago.

Still I wish the program applied my drawing style to any images, not just human figures, but rhinoceroses and landscapes.  I am sure that the AI now is capable of doing that.

Also I would like to make my style public domain, and allow anyone to use the model I trained on.



ChatGPT just came out (November 30, 2022), and isn't much of a help so far:
