“I have trodden the winepress alone,
And from the peoples no one was with Me.
For I have trodden them in My anger,
And trampled them in My fury;
Their blood is sprinkled upon My garments,
And I have stained all My robes.
For the day of vengeance is in My heart,
And the year of My redeemed has come.”

Isaiah 63, verses 3-4. NKJV.

I tried just with the verse alone at first, but it threw a fit presumably because of the blood, so I tweaked it for a bit, and asked it for an abstract representation of the verse instead, and I got these. Not bad actually. I do like the first one.

But I do want to see if I can get a fantasy artwork out of it, without it blocking me or turning off my account, I suppose we will see how we go….

Okay, so with a minor tweak, I changed “Their blood” to (red) in the verse for the prompt… and it still didn’t work. It’s probably offensive or hateful or something. So…

I mangled it a bit more, and ended up with this. “Fantasy scene representing the themes of vengeance and the redeemed from the following: “I have trodden the winepress alone, And from the peoples no one was with Me. For I have trodden them in My anger, And trampled them in My fury.”, red.“

And that did something, thought they’re a bit odd. I ended up with these few.

Which… I don’t like. To be honest.

So… I tried something different, and did this “Fantasy scene based on the bible verses Isaiah 63:3-4.” hoping the AI would know what verses I was talking about.

I was not impressed.

They’re fine, but not at all what I was looking for, and, well. Ugh.

So I did this. “Fantasy art of day of vengeance, and year of the redeemed, man with robes stained red. “I have trodden the winepress alone, And from the peoples no one was with Me. For I have trodden them in My anger, And trampled them in My fury;””

And got these two…

Cleary someone hasn’t read their bible. Strangely closer, but still so very wrong from the image in my head.

So I did tweaked again, changed “man” to “Jesus at war” just to get the point across. And It blocked me again. So I removed “at war” and just left it with Jesus, which is the same prompt that worked last time with one word different… and it still blocked me. Apparently Jesus is offensive….

Anyhow.

Tweaked again, change to “a good man” and then it gave me these two.

This one was the closest yet to the fantasy image I had in my head. Though he looks a little too much like a Templar.

This one does not. Apparently it had trouble connecting ‘good man’ with vengeance.

One last try to see if I can get the image I want with some more obvious directions…

These ones were abstract in style. And I swapped out robes for armor for a better look. It’s looking pretty good! (Is that you Ignis?)

Here are some other assorted not-quite’s.

I had to stop there, because it threatened to block me for violating it’s content policy.

At a guess I’d say it was this one.

“Not to use the service to create or share inappropriate content or material. Bing does not permit the use of Image Creator to create or share adult content, violence or gore, hateful content, terrorism and violent extremist content, glorification of violence, child sexual exploitation or abuse material, or content that is otherwise disturbing or offensive.”

It annoys me, but what can I do. Not sure how I’m going make cool fantasy battle scene though…

Times like this I miss my old AI art generator… mage.space. Or what it used to be, (it still exists, they’ve just made it worse…)

Sad that I couldn’t quite get the image that I wanted, as it’s one of my favourite chapters in Isaiah. But apparently the AI has a problem with such violent content or something like that. Which is annoying, but I don’t want to get kicked off so soon… So lets leave it there…
