While all else falls and crumbles, it persists. Staring into your soul. Daring you to do something about it.

Based on https://www.voat.xyz/images/voatgoat.png of course.

I have so many goats, guys. You don't even know.

Don't get discouraged if your first attempts don't turn out the way you imagined. Keep at it till you get there.

Incredible. It's as if they're all communicating to me.

Do it. Say the slur.

Pretty cool- do you take requests? I have a logo in mind for a website but I lack the patience and skill to get the AI to render it.

Can't make any promises, especially when working for free, but I'd probably give it a shot to help a goat out if you tell me what you have in mind. I've never tried making a logo or anything of that nature though. This is pretty much the opposite of that. And I'm pretty close to useless at traditional image editing. Just to keep your expectations in check.

I'll DM you my idea later , and willing to pay in crypto or steam gift cards.

Technical details, for those interested.

Sample prompt info:

(white goat:1.2), angry smirk, (short blue horns:1.2), pointed snout, (purple beard:1.05), stylized, ruins of an ancient city, detailed background, glowing blue eyes, ragemode, <lora:rageMode_v1:0.5>
Negative prompt: lowres, poorly drawn, out of frame, (cropped), ((worst quality)), ((low quality)), jpeg artifacts, text, error, signature, watermark, logo, username, artist name, blurry, out of focus
Steps: 24, Sampler: DDIM, CFG scale: 9, Seed: 948454521, Size: 640x360, Model hash: 6e430eb514, Model: anythingelseV4_v45, Clip skip: 2, Version: v1.2.1, ControlNet: "preprocessor: lineart_anime_denoise, model: control_v11p_sd15_lineart [43d4be0d], weight: 1, starting/ending: (0, 1), resize mode: Just Resize, pixel perfect: False, control mode: Balanced, preprocessor params: (360, 0.4, 0.1)"

The RageMode LoRA at 0.5 strength provides apocalyptic atmosphere and empowered goat presence. The kl_f8_anime2 VAE was applied to the AnythingElse v4.5 model for the stylized comic book look. ControlNet forces the classic voatgoat shape.

First the voatgoat.png linked in OP was resized in a separate image tool. Then preprocessed with the lineart_anime_denoise model of ControlNet, to produce this template (you could just reuse it with 'none' as preprocessor):

Then batches of 640x360 samples were generated as shown above, to find promising seeds. Good seeds were reused to regen with HiRes fix applying Latent x2, typically with 0.6 denoise, producing 1280x720 intermediate images.

If these looked good as well, they were sent to img2img. There, they were resized x1.5 with DDIM x24 @ 0.4-0.5 denoise, producing the final 1920x1080 resolution. The ragemode lora was removed from the prompt at this stage, to get a clean upscale without distorting the scene further. Sometimes additional terms were added to the prompt instead, to steer the finer details in the right direction. ControlNet was no longer needed at this point.
