Here is one of the drafts from the session for "Reflection", featuring Marguerette.

The ultra high res finished product, "Reflection", can be seen here:

Who is Marguerette?
The daughter of a world renowned inventor, Marguerette was also a genius in her own right. Marguerette had a kind heart and hoped that someday one of her inventions would benefit the entire world. It is said that she succumbed to a mysterious illness while working with her father on a top secret project. Some time after her passing, her father presented his wealthy funders with the release cantidate for the very first fully functional "AGI Platform", an android codenamed "Daisy".

In the Other World, reality warps and whispers truth in a cryptic tongue. The line between reality and reflection blurs, especially in the presence of vast reservoirs or in the heart of profound contemplation. Marguerette appears up to her shoulders in the water, looking back at Daisy who stands on the shore of a lake. An indescribable bond lingers between the two, an echo of the same melody, yet to be deciphered.

What is a draft?
As part of my process, I generate hundreds of images based on a given prompt. A lot of the time, the picture does not come out how I want, so I'll keep tweaking my prompt to get the character how I want them. Sometimes I will see something in a draft I really like that I didn't prompt for and it will be incorporated into my prompt! Once I get a draft or a few drafts I think I can combine into one composite, I start my upscale and redrawing process.

All of the details in my high resolution finished works are hand curated by me based on many iterations of an upscale step, compositing the details I like using Photoshop into a final piece. Drafts, then, are mostly the raw output of Stable Diffusion using only text and the settings I choose with maybe a little post-processing here and there by me to fix little problems. In short, drafts are my starting point!
