The prompt

Prompt

A chess board viewed from a low angle, the white pieces melting and dripping like candle wax down onto the board surface, the black pieces still solid and sharp, a king melting into a pool that forms a clock face, a knight melting downward with its horse head elongating, warm amber light from the right casting long shadows across the checkered squares, the board itself partially warped with squares bending upward at the edges, Daliesque atmosphere, no text, no letters, no numerals

Negative prompt

This entry was tested with a negative prompt as well. It goes in the separate negative field, not appended to the prompt above.

Negative prompt

blurry, low quality, text, watermark, signature, bright daylight, flat lighting, both sides melting, intact white pieces, extra chess boards, real clock, numbers, letters, deformed chess pieces, random objects

How to use this prompt

  1. 1

    Open the generator that matches the model and version above, and start a new image rather than editing an existing one.

  2. 2

    Set the output to 1:1 and apply the settings shown in the parameters panel — together those produced the 768 × 768 image on this page.

  3. 3

    Paste the prompt exactly as written. Changing the wording changes the image, so copy it before you edit.

  4. 4

    Paste the negative prompt into the separate negative field; this entry was tested with one.

  5. 5

    Generate, then change one thing at a time. The result will not be pixel-identical to the image on this page, because no seed is recorded for it.

Stable Diffusion exposes the sampler, step count, and CFG scale as separate settings, and this entry uses all three. If you are trying to reproduce this image, match the sampler name exactly and keep the step count and CFG as recorded — they are part of the recipe, not decoration.
