So I put some thought into this and wanted to make some era accurate images, as if they came from an alternate past. I focused on the robots, since they're always fascinating to generate.
I usually like to keep my submissions (like my attitude) light and positive. But these got quite dark from the moment I started to generate photographs.
Description: 1920's. Robots are seen as a novelty, inventors show off the nimbleness and sophistication of their designs. This oil painting depicts a demonstration of a ballet-dancing automaton in a fancy music hall.
Prompt:
oil painting, dieselpunk style, a ballerina dances in a ballet together with an automaton, the automaton is slender and elegant, in a music hall, 1930sDescription: 1930's. Robots are no longer a novelty but are being mass produced in huge factories. This photograph shows an almost finished land crawler. Factory workers are putting the finishing touches on it's chassis.
Prompt:
1930s monochrome photograph, dieselpunk style, a gigantic land crawler is being assembled in a factory assembly line, workers wear gas masks, the air is thick with smoke, industrial, realistic, iso 800Description: 1940's. Of course mankind eventually finds a way to turn anything into a weapon of war. Robots are used to cause terror and destruction in the many wars that ravage the continent.
Prompt:
dieselpunk style, 1940s photograph, warzone, a giant army robot approaches a ruined buildingI love the black and white old photo style. That's a great idea.
The giant army robot is amazing looking. The filter, aspect ratio, lighting, and style make me feel like it could have been real. The dancing automaton oil painting is beautiful.
