Character work: Age

Welcome to the fourth practice lesson! Within this lesson we will break down body work, what they are and how they affect the end result. This lesson is also divided into two parts. In the first part we will break down working with age.

Age: purpose and impact on outcome

Let's immediately define the basic principle of working with age. Do not complicate the prompts by specifying the exact age. For example, a 6-year-old girl and a 30-year-old man.... It is not necessary, because the AI is not well versed in such precise parameters and the final result may not turn out as you would like.

Practice

Here are the age parameters I personally use and can recommend to you:

Men:

  • shota
  • boy
  • teen boy
  • man
  • uncle
  • middle-aged man
  • elderly man

Women:

  • loli
  • girl
  • teen girl
  • woman
  • auntie
  • middle-aged woman
  • elderly woman

For demonstration I will use this prompt (separately marked what was changed)

  • masterpiece, best quality, highres, loli girl, white shirt, sleeveless, jeans, standing, street, cowboy shot, hand on hip

You can also work out the age on your own. To do this, use this link to a ready algorithm.

Results

In order for you to always get images from the point of view of age, it will be correct to define age as one of the initial parameters of your prompt. This way AI will see the importance of this parameter and with higher probability will draw exactly what you need.

Now let's look at the most interesting variants. Since we do not work with a specific age, but only give the AI a generalized representation, the results will vary depending on the model you use. For example, the model used in the lesson does not give very different results. So be careful when choosing a model!

However, I would like to emphasize the work of the "loli" and "middle-aged woman" parameters. They were better than the others in coming closer to the result that was expected.

loli
middle-aged woman

When using other parameters, there are differences between the images, but not so significant. This is due to the model and the fact that the parameters that were used do not change the age so much.

auntie
girl
teen girl
woman

Homework

Your homework assignment will be to try out the different parameters for working with age yourself. You can use this prompt for this purpose

  • masterpiece, best quality, highres, loli girl, white shirt, sleeveless, jeans, standing, street, cowboy shot, hand on hip

Or you can go straight to the link and start generating.

You can also see examples of how to use prompts in my telegram group, where I share ready-made algorithms and image creation tweaks every day.

Download the results of your experiments and share them within the course. Remember that the main thing is your creativity and imagination! Good luck, and enjoy the process of creating unique images with artificial intelligence.
