The Tardigrade and some AI art styles

I've been doing some experiments with art styles around one of my current favourite prompts at the moment (see end of this post for prompt and details). The prompt and model make really interesting stylized animals and for this example I used the humble tardigrade as the base animal. The initial style is a pixar style, which is kinda cute, but seems to be the theme in general throughout this prompt.

Next I tried something in the style of one of the greatest game series of all time, "bioshock style". It has done a surprisingly good job of getting that style across.

"Steampunk style" was my next test, and it seems to have tried to add some kind of gears and the expected brass/bronze effect that you get with most steampunk styles. Also this image is a good example of the AI picking up some kind of watermark from the original source(s) and thinking it should be included in the creation.

Finally, I went with "Cyberpunk style" and it created some of my fave images of the lot

Below are some other examples of the output of this prompt. These are all just generic "insects" created using the bioshock style. It would be a great way for game designers and writers to generate artwork and ideas for their projects.
