Ohhh the software is affinity photo. Is it free ? What’s VAE? And do you have midjourney tutorials on how to get the face like one wants and then how to change it to 3/4, looking up , etc ?? :) and how to move the body how one kinda wants and the clothing ?
OMG!!! to make it real simple. All we need is mediocore photoshop skills making crappy draft and get SD to finish it up. And for small edit. Generative fill or to stick by the rule and NOT using any paid apps, inpaint. And you mentioned about the free app that is photoshop like which streamline with SD!! Thank you for the training. I spent 2 weeks learning about everything but prompts. Mainly because of that. Control. I want to make money as a designer. Not an artist working on the best prompt.
Coming from Photoshop, Illustrator and currently using the free macsoftware Gimp, this is just absolute magic. That last image with the woman and the halo is just mesmerizing!
Great video! I have been working as a high end retoucher for 10 years and whenever I other retouchers say to me they are worried about AI I honestly think it's because they do not know much about it. I've been getting more work than ever creating ai fashion imagery etc and photobashing is one of the key components needed. Then further editing with multiple ai images to use.
As a AI art and photo editing newbie, really appreciate the tune and speed of the tutorial provided in this channel. Ease to follow and comprehensive explanation, Really learn step by step and grow a little every day.
Ive been using photoshop and SD for a few months now, hands down the best video for anyone to start getting into this!!! Keep up the amazing work! We all really appreciate you taking the time to make these videos
Sorry I don't understand how this is useful for beginners. He sets a hundred different settings without explaining any of it. How is that better than prompts, which beginners can actually use?
@@NicolasConnault who said this is for beginners? It's easier in the sense that you can get exactly the composition and even colors you like. If I would explain every setting in every video my video would all be 3 hours long and most people wouldn't need 95% of that information
@@OlivioSarikas I was replying to odawgthat who said this was the best video "for anyone to start getting into this". I assumed he was talking about beginners. Personally I get very frustrated when I'm shown what to do but not why, but I do get your point, and a 3-hour video would be a lot of work to make :)
@@NicolasConnault I think he means people who want to use img2img more, not people who are completely new to A1111 and the settings of it. However, i have a lot of videos to get you started on my channel
I tried this workflow for a few days. It's really not an easy exercise when you have a very clear idea of what you want. It's a bit frustrating when you have to spend hours explaining to the AI how to change a very specific detail in the desired way. But I'll keep at it, thanks for the video, it gave me another boost.
You are welcome. You can always try to use the already rendered image, change that a bit and then either only render the part that needs improvement or render with a lower denoise value to get a close result
Or instead: Use ControlNet's lineart preprocessor on your 3 images, then combine the lineart in photoshop, then plug the resulting lineart into ControlNet for generating. (Lineart is much easier to work with, although color control takes an extra step w/ either img2img or a second ControlNet.)
@@OlivioSarikas Lineart is easier to work with. You can remove extra fingers, resize eyes, nose, mouth, add / subtract from the hair style all very easily. Redrawing sections of lineart for absolute composition control is much faster than hand-painting. There are no seams / mismatching colors in the end result. (I don't know about "less detail". I've never had ControlNet cause a problem like that. I get high detail by upscaling with realisticVision and ControlNet's tile sampler.) (I'm a traditional artist, and I am using SD to make my art photorealistic and to make it faster! :-) )
@@7ens3nButt0n I would assume you would load the lineart you made into controlnet, so no preprocessor, and use the lineart model. This would be for txt2img. I haven't tried this method yet but that's what I would assume the workflow would be.
Hey Olivio - all of your videos are awesome. This one was especially awesome. Really enjoyed seeing this end to end process for how you use these tools together to bend pixels to your will! Funny intro was a nice bonus too. :)
Could you perhaps create a new from A-Z tutorial on how to utilize all of the most recent tools? Things are changing so quickly, it's hard to start from scratch without using outdated tools.
Photobashing is amazing, I've used it on a big project and it would have been impossible without it. It's one of SD strongs, it would be very annoying to do it in Midjourney.
It is. I've been exploring this with SD for quite a while now, and fun though pure t2i is, running images from past photoshoots through SD has been really interesting, with even failed shots in some cases being useful for i2i. Some types of retouching that can be a time consuming challenge can also be done very satisfactorily and quickly with SD.
Alright, I tried your first concept here but a bit different. I made a quick sketch and IMG2IMG it and it does the composition really well and is probably quicker than finding all the assets you need and adjusting everything. However, it still seems more reliable to get the background you want and only sketch the foreground yourself.
This's my daily workflow. First, I start with my own creation, so no copyright infringment, and second I've fast multiple variation to choose. Just, I keep the result closer to my style to make it more personal.
You could have compared some of those in-between images side-by-side and maybe zoomed in a little. I couldn't tell the different sometimes. Thanks for the video though!
I keep coming back to this video because it lo0oks like the only way to get close to a Midjourney 5.x quality in stable diffusion. The composition is stable diffusions weak point as far as I can see so composing an image this way seems promising.
It's annoying trying to do this in midjourney and leanardo a.i. I tried it, it's a mess. Going to have to upgrade my system to use stable diffussion because I'll have far more control with it. Great video and really helpful. I do a lot of photobashing in photoshop so this is ideal for my work.
I'm more excited about a future where we can do similar with 3D-printed full body replacements with an AI surgeon as part of the deal where what you make can be your new body. What would a world where anyone can be any gender, any color, any shape, any apparent age, any and every option choice one could think of? Would such a thing end sexism, racism, ageism, and other biases and prejudices?
that's what I'm talking about, the fundamentals didn't change, it's still the Artist that will take advantage of the a.i. tools. not the common folks. A.I. cannot simply steal an artist JOB 😅😊
funny I was thinking this technique might work well with SD but didn't know it had an official name (photo bashing). Someone should make an online photo bashing tool to help people create quick mockups of what they want.. or maybe someone already has made one :)
Hi Olivio - great video as always - could you comment on what photo-editing software you feature in this video? Is this your preferred editorial software?
"Right click on our layer". It may be worth mentioning to the viewer what tool you use, before jumping into your use of that tool. Edit: deleted segment anything.
for the photobashing your using with the winged girl what program is that photoshop or photopea? You skipped the part on how to take the image to Stable Diffusion
I really like this "photo-bashing" stuff. I've seen videos from a few months ago (before ControlNet) where it took the person a while to get what he wanted but these days, it seems to get easier and better.
Hi Olivio! Thanks for your tutorials. Any idea how can I generate a nice professional studio-like LinkedIn profile pic from my selfie? I fail to do it in Midjorney - the resulting pictures don't look like me :)
Amazing as always! Thank you again! I saw that you worked on Affinity Photo there and you did tutorials on it before working with generative AIs. For a starter: is it an equivalent to photoshop?
You are the BoSs man. The best boss the world. My boss keeps me working all night long just in order to keep up with him. Keep up the great work Olivio. Bet ya though I was gonna say something like moss but this dark haurse jus keep on runnin. I like your raps pops keep ‘em dropping like rocks, non stop. =]
so basically does the inpainting need to have the same prompt if you wanna change just 1 thing? (For example, a lady is holding her hair in the final image)but the hand has a couple of extra fingers, i paint just the extra part, but the fingers still come out crooked, does inpainting have a feature that you can remove extra fingers? or do you need to be really specific as to painting the area?
If you keep the full prompt it will try to put say, another entire woman in the inpainting space, so along as there's high enough denoising. Most people I've seen, and myself use a simple description of what you are trying to change, maybe with the style included maybe not. For hands I'll usually try to inpaint the entire hand or all the fingers. Or use Lama cleaner or photoshop to roughly get rid of anything extra then inpaint it. There's also a "bad-hands" negative embedding that can somewhat help.

Back to the roots! Love to see it
nothing better than some good old basics
dunno why I never thought of doing this. I think this is more interesting for compositions that are almost impossible to get through prompts.
Here we go! This is where AI gets good, when you combine artistic skills with it :3
Yep, this is where Art meets AI :)
This works for me! This is the way I've been doing it. But you took it to another level with image adjustment. Nice!!!
