Ok. So this is an interesting one. This is Xerxes the Manticore and the Gibbet FX mascot. I sculpted his head ( all 4 feet of it!) and cast it in silicone. Painted it and added quills onto a literal physical model.
I then took a photo of that head and brought it into Photoshop. Here I made the composition of the extended body and background as a single 2d image.
Fast forward to now.
I ran the single image through the AI editor and got this.
What's interesting is that it's still my IP but the render takes cues from that to "extend" it.
Still has a problem with scorpion tails though and wants to turn them into tentacles.
I have to say, I'm finding this quite intriguing.

An Early Start
The tiny mouse-sized ancestral mammal Megazostrodon searches for breakfast one prehistoric morning. Megazostrodon lived from the late Triassic to early Jurassic.
The model was 3d printed,painted and placed on a small diorama I made. It was then photographed in my garden. An AI editor provided the final environmental render,rigging and movement.

Oni Trophy.
Used a bit of AI rigging to breath "life (?)" into this sculpt I did some time ago.
Seems like Oni won't die even when you cut off their head and stick it on your wall.
