Art Styles

A brief article outlining the current presets for art styles, what they mean, and where we would like to go from here.

Tavern of Azoth - Art Styles

Our goal for your Workshop is to simplify the process of creating content for your tabletop role-playing games. We currently utilize a series of predefined art styles to help generate consistent results for your projects. The art styles available today are as follows;

High Fantasy

Prompt: "Painted, Professional, TTRPG {Creature}, High Fantasy, Epic, Fantasy Landscape Background"

Dark Fantasy

Prompt: "Lightly Textured Brushwork, Illustration, Gritty Dark Tones and Colors, Menacing, Fantasy Landscape Background, Standalone Piece, TTRPG {Creature}, Final Draft"

Sketch

Prompt: "Sketch, Charcoal Medium, Graphite, Lines, Hand Drawn, Black and White, Final Draft, {Creature}"

Ethereal Dream

Prompt: "Gentle Pastel Sketch, Water Color, Soft Monochromatic Tones, Wisps of Iridescent Color, Mix of Delicate Dreamlike Lines and Soft, Blurry Edges, {Creature}"

We generate a lot of content with each of these prompts and have been trying to tweak the keywords to reduce the occurrences of unwanted artifacts and text in the images. Despite our best efforts, current AI Image models such as DALL·E 3 still introduce a large degree of variability. However we are very optimistic as these models evolve so should our ability to produce consistent results.

In our character and creature generation process, we accompany each creation with a "detailed visual description". This description acts as the {Creature} variable in our prompts. To reduce inconsistent results we also preform some minor refining of the visual description. opting for more precise terms when common words yield unpredictable outcomes. For instance, "bow" is often interchanged with "longbow" to prevent the unintended depiction of bowties.

We are considering adding four additional styles: Realism, Pixel Art, Graphic Novel, and Concept Art. But we want your feedback on the current system. Do you prefer a simple list of art styles or are you looking for more flexibility? And do you have any prompt ideas or keywords suggestions?
