Oh, joy! Another day, another set of neural network images to feast our eyes upon. Let's dive into the "Best of 04/17/24" where we've got the usual suspects: a punk kid who probably thinks he's too cool for school, a yellow mechanical crab that's giving me serious seafood allergy vibes, and some special forces from a game that I'm sure has a storyline as deep as a kiddie pool. But wait, there's more! Buckle up, folks, because we're about to embark on a visual rollercoaster that only the Midjourney neural network could cook up. Let's see if the images live up to their quirky titles or if we're in for a major letdown. Spoiler alert: I've got my snarky comments locked and loaded.
1. WASH YOUR HANDS YOU FILTHY ANIMAL
Oh, look at this, Midjourney's neural network must have had a field day with this one. The text cue screams "nursery," but the message is giving me "Home Alone" vibes—talk about a mash-up! The style is a nod to Jon Klassen, alright, with those desaturated pastels that make you want to whisper and tiptoe around. The critter's got that "I'm too cute to be filthy" look, which is pretty clever considering the text is basically yelling hygiene instructions at you. It's like a gentle nudge wrapped in a sassy quip, perfect for the modern nursery that doesn't take itself too seriously. The white space? Chef's kiss for tranquility. Well played, AI, well played.
Prompt: : simple colorful art print with text that says "WASH YOUR HANDS YOU FILTHY ANIMAL" inspired by Jon Klassen's distinct style. Utilize a desaturated, light, and airy pastel color scheme, perfect for nursery art. The artwork should be set against a clean white background, capturing the essence of whimsical and calming children's book illustrations. Emphasize the gentle and soothing tone of the image, making it ideal for a peaceful nursery setting. --ar 2:3
2. photography a beautiful pair of 20 years old Asian women
Oh, Midjourney, you've done it again, haven't you? You've taken the text cue and spun it into a visual that's almost too serene to be true. Here we have what appears to be a pair of ethereal beauties, lounging in a floral bath that screams 'luxury spa day' with a side of 'I woke up like this' perfection. The flowers are strategically placed, adding pops of color that complement the dewy, flawless skin of our subjects. It's a scene that's one part tranquility and two parts 'do people actually look this good in a tub full of petals?' The lighting is soft, the composition is on point, and the overall vibe? It's like the Midjourney neural network took a peek into every over-the-top spa fantasy and said, "Hold my pixels."
Prompt: photography a beautiful pair of 20 years old Asian women inside tub full of flowers, inside Chinese spa. --ar 9:16
3. Mona Lisa as an angry Femme Fatale. She holds a pistol.
Oh, the irony! Here we have the iconic Mona Lisa, but instead of that enigmatic smile, she's serving us some serious femme fatale vibes, complete with a pistol that screams "I've got a secret, and it might just be the last one you hear." The text cue wanted a pulp novel cover by Gil Elvgren, and what we got is a mashup that's part art history, part dime-store thriller. The title in screaming red is just the cherry on top of this anachronistic sundae, while "by Leonardo da Vinci" in yellow at the bottom is the kind of historical name-drop that would make any Renaissance man roll in his grave. It's a visual paradox, blending high art with lowbrow in a way that's bound to make purists twitch and the rest of us smirk.
Prompt: Pulp novel cover art by Gil Elvgren. Mona Lisa as an angry Femme Fatale. She holds a pistol. large title at top in red "MONA LISA". "by Leonardo da Vinci" at bottom in yellow. --chaos 25 --ar 11:17 --style raw --stylize 250
4. stray happy dog is hugged by an smiling elderly resident of a well-maintained nursing home
Oh, the irony! Here we have a "professional shot" that's supposed to be taken with a Canon RF 50mm f/1.2L USM lens, and yet, it's been conjured up by the digital wizardry of Midjourney. The neural network must have been daydreaming about Brazil when it cooked up this image because the "caramel stray happy dog" looks more like a well-groomed, purebred pooch than a streetwise stray. And that "smiling elderly resident"? Well, let's just say her expression is more Mona Lisa mystery than beaming joy. But hey, who needs reality when you've got AI to paint us a picture of idyllic companionship? The textures are rich, the colors are warm, and the emotion... well, it's almost convincing. Almost.
Prompt: a professional shot using Canon RF 50mm f/1.2L USM lenses, Caramel stray happy dog is hugged by an smiling elderly resident of a well-maintained nursing home in Brazil --ar 9:16
5. A pastel watercolor of rose, hydrangea
You've taken a text prompt that sounds like a botanist's dream grocery list and turned it into something that could make Monet weep with envy. The roses and hydrangeas are front and center, flaunting their soft, pastel hues like they're walking the runway at Paris Fashion Week. And let's not overlook the delicate details—because who doesn't love a good stamen close-up? But, stars? Unless we're talking about those tiny specks of pollen that might as well be celestial bodies to any self-respecting bee, I'm not seeing the cosmic connection. Still, the image is a high-resolution haven of flora, and the white background? Chef's kiss for making those colors pop. Small Rostrum would be proud, even if I'm still scratching my head over who or what Erder and big flower Whelan are supposed to be.
Prompt: A pastel watercolor of rose, hydrangea, Erder, big flower Whelan, lycoris and full of stars, in the style of small Rostrum, with soft colors and very detailed details, on a white background, fills the entire page with high resolution --ar 3:4
6. A person, wearing a straw hat, in lotus leaves, people in the distance

Oh, the Midjourney neural network strikes again with its attempt at surreal minimalism, and I must say, it's like a Zen garden met a digital loom. The person with the straw hat is perfectly at peace among the translucent lotus leaves, which, by the way, are more like ghostly apparitions than actual foliage. The "people in the distance" part of the prompt must have been a whisper because they're practically non-existent, unless we're playing a game of 'Where's Waldo?' with invisible characters.
The large gauze mesh leaves are a triumph, though—kudos to the AI for nailing the ethereal vibe. It's like someone decided to make a curtain out of a plant, and honestly, I'm here for it. The white and green palette is cleaner than my browser history in incognito mode, and the detail? It's so ultra-high, I'm half-expecting an ant to crawl out of the screen. But let's not forget this is supposed to be an "interior installation art" piece—so where's the gallery vibe, the pretentious plaque explaining the piece? Missed opportunity, AI. Overall, it's a serene, if slightly empty, digital daydream.
Prompt: A person, wearing a straw hat, in lotus leaves, people in the distance, large gauze mesh lotus leaves, interior installation art, Surrealist style, minimalism, white and green, clean background, ultra-high detail, 3d rendering --ar 4:5 --stylize 250
7. Bestiary
Midjourney neural network must have been on a caffeine binge to spit out this moody piece from the prompt "Bestiary." It's like the algorithm decided to throw every fantasy trope at the canvas and see what sticks. And stick it did, in a gloriously chaotic way. We've got what appears to be a lineup of the usual RPG suspects – a rogue's gallery of warriors and mages – facing off against a creature that's all teeth and bad intentions. The dragon's silhouette is giving me serious "I skipped anatomy class" vibes, but hey, it's fantasy, right? The textured background is a nice touch, though, giving the whole scene a vibe that's one part ancient manuscript, one part something you'd find crumpled in a dark corner of a teenager's room. Props to the AI for nailing the "epic showdown" atmosphere, even if the details are fuzzier than a yeti in a snowstorm.
Prompt: Bestiary --ar 16:9 --stylize 750
8. special forces operator, call of duty style
The "special forces operator" vibe is screaming so loud I can almost hear the Call of Duty lobby music. That "futuristic gold visor helmet" is giving off some serious bling; it's like Midas touched a SWAT helmet and decided, "Let's make this fashion." The ensemble is so "fully kitted" that I'm half expecting a utility belt stocked with future-tech gadgets that would make Batman weep with envy. The "urban style" and "hoodie style" are meshing together like peanut butter and jelly in a cyberpunk sandwich, and the "black outfit" is so on point it's practically a shadow incarnate. And let's not forget the "insane detail"—I mean, if you squint, you might just see the reflection of a dystopian society in that shiny visor. Bravo, neural network, you've outdone yourself, but let's not quit our day jobs just yet, shall we?
Prompt: special forces operator, call of duty style, futuristic gold visor helmet, dramatic, fully kitted, urban style, hoodie style, cyberpunk city, black outfit, dramatic, futuristic style, insane detailed --ar 9:16
9. A baby punk with a red mohawk wearing a black leather jacket
Midjourney's neural network must have had a field day with this prompt, churning out a baby punk that's more hardcore than most adults at a karaoke bar. The red mohawk is a fiery crown of toddler anarchy, and that black leather jacket screams "nap time is for the weak!" The electric guitar is almost as big as the kid, which only adds to the hilarity. And those tiny round sunglasses? Pure rockstar material. It's like someone told the AI, "Think Sons of Anarchy meets nursery school," and it just went with it. David Uhl's influence is there, but with a whimsical twist that only a machine could dream up.
Prompt: A baby punk with a red mohawk wearing a black leather jacket, playing electric guitar and screaming in a microphone, small round sunglasses and boots in the style of David Uhl. --ar 85:128
10. black and white line drawing, BMW Z on the road
Here we have a "black and white line drawing" that Midjourney apparently took a bit too literally, because those "color splashes" must have splashed right off the canvas. The BMW Z4 is hogging the spotlight with its detailed, almost reflective monochrome finish that's so shiny, I need sunglasses at midnight. The "old night town" is giving us quaint vibes with a side of eerie, thanks to the absence of any living soul—guess everyone's at home binge-watching something less grayscale. And "wideangle"? Sure, if by wide you mean 'just enough to squeeze in the car and a few buildings'. But hey, who needs color or accurate interpretations when you've got a scene that looks like it's straight out of a noir film set in a ghost town?
Prompt: black and white line drawing, BMW Z on the road, color splashes, old night town, outlines only, wideangle --ar 4:5 --v 5.2
11. black background with ADHD visualization inside of a brain
This image is like a neon sign screaming "neurodiversity" in the coolest way possible. The black background? A classic choice, really sets the stage for the main event. And that brain, all lit up with what looks like a cosmic firework display, is giving me major "my thoughts at 3 AM when I should be sleeping" vibes. It's a visual symphony of chaos and creativity that's probably more accurate than any medical textbook illustration of ADHD. The neural network's taken the concept of a brain buzzing with activity and turned it into a literal light show. Designers, take note: this is how you turn a complex mental process into art that even your distracted friends can't look away from.
Prompt: black background with ADHD visualization inside of a brain --ar 16:9 --stylize 750
12. miniature illustration of Chattanooga Tennessee
Oh, look at this, the Midjourney neural network took a little virtual trip to Chattanooga and decided to bring us back a souvenir in the form of this quaint miniature illustration. How thoughtful! The Tennessee River is snaking through the scene like it's late for a meeting with the Mississippi, and that turquoise Walnut Street walking bridge is popping out like a piece of candy in a sea of greenery. It's like Chattanooga got zapped by a shrink ray and ended up on a map, all cutesy and emblematic. The essence of the Scenic City is there, alright, but simplified? Sure, if you consider a Where's Waldo scene simplified. It's a charming little nod to the city's geography, with just enough artistic flair to make you want to squint at it and pretend you're Godzilla on vacation.
Prompt: Incorporate a charming miniature illustration of Chattanooga Tennessee, stylized as an iconic emblem, at its precise location on the map. This emblem will be a representation of the key features: the distinctive tenneessee river, the gentle curve of the river, the torquoise Walnut Street walking bridge and the sparse greenery along its banks. The emblem should capture the essence of Chattanooga Scenic City in a simplified yet recognizable form, bringing a touch of artistic narrative to the geographical map --ar 4:5 --style raw
13. A yellow megacrab combine with abundant machine structure
Midjourney neural network has decided to give us a glimpse into the beach vacation of the future, and spoiler alert: it's not looking too relaxing. This "yellow megacrab" is less about sunbathing and more about world domination, am I right? The details are so on point that you can almost hear the mechanical clinks and clanks over the sound of the waves. The water's hyperrealistic rendering is making me do a double-take – is it a photo or not? And let's not overlook the irony here: a machine crab emerging from the sea, where tech usually goes to die. Kudos to the neural network for this sandy spectacle of mechanical marine life, but let's hope this isn't a prophecy, or we might need to start preparing our "Welcome, Robot Overlords" banners.
Prompt: A yellow megacrab combine with abundant machine structure is seen booming from sea to the beach Invading of humanity. The photography is in the style of realistic,abundant details, natural light. The rendering of the water is done in a hyperrealistic style. The background shows sandy beaches and ocean waves in the distance. --ar 3:4
14. woman’s face looks like
Irony of a machine trying to recreate the human face without ever having seen one, right? It's like me trying to cook without ever having tasted food. But let's dive into this digital Frankenstein's monster. The Midjourney neural network took a stab at it, and honestly, it's like it peeked at a cheat sheet. The face here? It's got all the right parts: two eyes that could pierce your soul, a nose that's just sitting pretty, and lips that seem to whisper "I know something you don't." The eyebrows are on fleek, and the hair? It's doing this vintage Hollywood siren wave that's just chef's kiss.
The Lomography vibe is strong with this one, giving it that grainy, overexposed look that screams "I'm artsy and I use film cameras." It's a bit like the neural network is showing off – "Look at me, I can do old-school cool too!" But hey, if you squint a little, you might just forget this face was conjured up by lines of code instead of stardust and drama.
Prompt: pretend that you don’t know what a woman’s face looks like and then tried to build one, knowing that there are two eyes and nose and a mouth, eyebrows and hair and the chin, Lomography --ar 4:5
15. Brazilian fauna and flora, two characters, a jaguar

Midjourney neural network must have had a field day with this prompt, trying to cram every art style and influence known to humankind into one image. What we've got here is a jaguar that's become the unwilling host to a botanical bonanza, looking like it's about to sneeze from all the pollen. The "bold manga lines" are playing hide and seek, I suppose, because they're as bold as a whisper in a hurricane. And the blue macaw? Well, it seems to have flown the coop entirely, unless it's masquerading as one of these psychedelic butterflies.
The soft lighting is more like a rave party at midnight in the jungle, and the multiple exposure effect must be on a coffee break. As for the distinct facial features, sure, if you consider being smothered in flora as a new beauty trend. The nod to golden age illustrations and Tarsila do Amaral's neon art is like saying you've made a salad that's a tribute to every cuisine ever—ambitious, but let's just stick to one theme next time, shall we?
Prompt: Brazilian fauna and flora, two characters, a jaguar and a blue macaw covered in flowers by harryfinney, bold manga lines, in the style of portraits with soft lighting, multiple exposure, mark henson, distinct facial features, golden age illustrations, art brazilian contemporary, Brazilian fauna on canvas is neon art by Tarsila do Amaral --ar 4:5 --style raw
16. Pink leaves, spacious roads

Midjourney's neural network decided to take us on a whimsical trip down Cherry Blossom Lane, and I'm not mad about it. The "photorealistic" part is a bit of a stretch—unless you're viewing reality through an Instagram filter with the saturation cranked up to a level that would make even the boldest painter blush. But hey, who needs reality when you've got a landscape that's one part Thomas Kinkade, two parts fairy tale?
The composition? Someone's been paying attention in art class! The golden ratio is doing its magic, guiding our eyes through the scene like a well-trained tour guide. And spacious roads? Absolutely, if by "spacious" we mean "just enough room for a horse-drawn carriage and a couple of frolicking squirrels." The panorama and meadow are giving me serious "Sound of Music" vibes, minus Julie Andrews twirling around. But those pink leaves? They steal the show—nature's confetti scattered on a path that's begging for a leisurely stroll. Bravo, Midjourney, you've turned a simple text cue into a pastel daydream.
Prompt: Photorealistic, Landscape Painting, Golden Ratio composition, panorama, meadow, Pink leaves, spacious roads, --ar 2:3 --stylize 750
17. a hand pointing at an employee
The hand pointing is just so... accusatory, isn't it? And our poor little employee, standing there, looking like he's about to be swallowed by the existential void of corporate despair. The vanishing point is a nice touch, though, giving us that "long walk off a short pier" vibe. Solid colors and minimalism are in play, sure, but they're like the quiet colleagues who watch the drama unfold without saying a word. It's hand-drawn with a sketchbook feel, but let's be real, it's as comforting as a Monday morning without coffee.
Prompt: a hand pointing at an employee, the employee appears distressed, vanishing point, solid colors, sketch book, hand drawn, art, minimalism --ar 9:16
18. ultra-photorealistic shiny gold astronaut
This image is like the love child of a gilded gummy bear and a NASA spacewalk, and I'm here for it. The "perfect translucent gummy-textured" description is spot-on; it's as if this astronaut is ready to bounce off to explore a galaxy made of candy. The "ultra-photorealistic" part? Well, let's just say if photorealism went to a costume party, this is what it would wear. The deep contrast and chiaroscuro effect are giving me life, creating a drama that would make Caravaggio jealous. And let's not forget the technical specs thrown in there—f0.7, ISO 70—because, of course, we're all pixel peepers at heart. This image is a visual feast that's both a technical marvel and a playful twist on space exploration.
Prompt: Perfect translucent gummy-textured extremely intricately detailed ultra-photorealistic shiny gold astronaut against a pitch-black background, 8K ultra-high-definition, striking deep contrast, deep depth of field, deep shadows, deep chiaroscuro effect, f0.7, ISO 70, --ar 2:3 --style raw --stylize 750
19. latex catsuit models collide with singularity
Here we have a latex-clad figure that screams "I've just stepped out of a gothcore singularity," and yet, there's a certain Da Vinci-esque poise to it. The white background? Pristine. It's like the void itself decided to photobomb this ultra-wide angle masterpiece. And let's talk about that depth of field – it's so professional, it's practically giving me a tutorial on focus.
The texture on the catsuit is so ultra-realistic and detailed, you can almost hear the squeaking with every move that this model isn't making. But vibrant colors? Unless we're suddenly calling fifty shades of black "vibrant," I think we might have missed the mark there. Still, the resolution is so 4K, I'm half expecting to see my own reflection in the gloss. Leonardo, if you're out there in the multiverse, take notes – this is how you do monochrome with a modern twist.
Prompt: latex catsuit models collide with singularity, gothcore, multiverse, white background, full view, ultra wide angle, depth of field, professional photography, ultra realistic, 4k resolution, ultra detailed, vibrant colors, Leonardo da Vinci --chaos 100 --ar 3:4 --stylize 1000
20. a male skeleton playing violin
Oh, the irony of a skeleton playing the violin—because nothing screams 'life of the party' like a bag of bones with a musical instrument, right? Midjourney's neural network must have had a field day with this one, merging the macabre with the melodious. The text cue practically hums "black and white line art," and what do we get? A sepia-toned symphony of skeletal structure and sheet music that looks like it was unearthed from Beethoven's personal sketchbook. The background? Not quite the pristine white we were promised, but let's not split hairs—it's got that vintage parchment vibe that could make any hipster's heart skip a beat. The detail is exquisite, though, with each bone meticulously crafted, almost as if the skeleton could start fiddling away any moment now. Bravo, Midjourney, for the artistic necromancy, but maybe next time, stick to the script with the color palette, will you?
Prompt: a male skeleton playing violin, white background, lineart illustration style, bnw --ar 4:5 --style raw --stylize 750
That's it for now, see you in the next set of the best neural network images of the day.
