Making a gargoyle is harder

You may have noticed that in my gallery are only four photo manipulations of gargoyles. The reason is simple, it is even harder to find matching photos. It is actually so hard that those gargoyles in my gallery did not contain any source images of wings. I made them more like a digital drawing and I only used photos of skin or fur as a texture.

As an experiment I tried to do the same thing I did with the lamia. But with a gargoyle this time.

Let’s just say generative AI is still a bit behind.

After two attempts I tried it with a new source image.

To be fair some parts of the previous prompt about the shadow of the hand got mixed in.

Even if I ignore that mistake with the shadow, the result is far away form what I was imagining.

So, there is still a place for human made photo manipulation. (For now... )
