Very good SplatShot. Your twins are cute, even if it seems that they had many sleepless nights.
I love B&W but I noticed that it doesn't get votes here.
Many years ago one of the members used only B&W, his chops were rather dark and surrealist. I don't remember his name. He almost never got any votes, I guess he didn't care. I liked his work very much though batman

    Thanks, Zz! Yeah your right, B & W doesn't get much love.
    I was thinking maybe a nostalgic portrait take might do well. For instance, A young Marlon Brando On The Waterfront or a Bogart, Bacall, Cagney and even a James Byron Dean Smile

Sorry Genesis, to me your link leads to the homepage of Imgur. To post here :

- you wait for your pic to be fully loaded in imgur (it says "Upload complete!")

- right click on your image: "Copier l'adresse de l'image"... well, my computer speaks French at this level, I guess you would get something like "Copy the image address" Wink

- you paste what you got here in the forum space

- then you highligh the link you've copied and click on Img just over there, over the rectangular square you're writing into Smile

Too glad if I taught you something, for once. Banana

    Exactly. Wow... So Good* I back-searched found nothing close. What AI generator Is this? I'm thinking the cleft chin maybe out of place.

    Zz's, Image Above: http://i.imgur.com/MQk1GWS.jpeg


Authentic Marlon Brando **On the Waterfront** (1954)


looks like a cleft chin... But I believe now AI is representing a scar on his chin.

    I see you figured it out.

    Pretty cool, and a good likeness. My *Vito Corleone* didn't even look close. Was the double fist-ed drinker your Idea or did AI dream that up for you? Which Generator? Think I'm gonna have to start using Leo sometimes.

ChatGpt, my prompt was a simple,"a marlon Brando look alike serving drinks in a sleezy bar in black and white".
