Dark
High-fidelity concept art of a gritty Super Mario survival horror. Mario, wearing weathered, dirt-stained overalls and a cracked cap, stands defensively with a makeshift pipe-wrench. He is surrounded by a horde of "Zombified" Goombas and Koopas with glowing eyes and tattered shells. The environment is a decaying, fog-drenched Mushroom Kingdom with overgrown pipes and crumbling castles.
Valknar works with diffusion models as a compositional tool, creating dark surrealist visions that challenge the language of machine vision and disrupt comfortable readings of the generated face.
