This is fantastic. Can you share any details of how you created the pictures?

I am trying to do illustrations for a childrens book in a similar style (although I want much more detail on the pages) but all my attempts end up being a complete mess.

But even if you can't share deets thanks for the inspo!

Any issue with copyright? Lots of brands named right in your copy.

Yea, OP couldn't have picked worse companies for aggressive copyright protection.

I used to work at Disney, and was amazed that they’re so large that their companies sue each other. Disney is so litigious that it sues itself lol.

There's a couple of these out there already - but the lack of a sign-up requirement is a nice touch. https://www.coloringbook.ai https://colorbliss.com

I agree, no-signup is really nice, esp. since I'm hesitant to have my kids signup for things, and of course free is nice. That said, if you do want or need to monetize, one idea would be to slap a donation link like 'Buy me a beer' on it. I could see some people being willing to send a few bucks to your daughters' college fund in exchange for infinite coloring pages for their kids. Also, it probably makes sense to ca…

Maybe "Buy us some crayons" instead? You could even do a partial donation for coloring supplies to a kids' charity.

It is most likely using a Lora - it’s like an add on for stable diffusion that forces a specific style. You can find them ready-made for all sorts of styles - including black and white line art. Or you can also train your own using a few examples of a style you want to use.

This is a fun idea, but whatever version of stable diffusion being used isn’t very prompt adherent so any kind of complex scene or interaction between characters is mostly ignored, which reduces the fun a bit.

Whenever I show things like this to my kids they always say something tbat’ll be really hard - like ‘a unicorn riding a princess’ and then everything comes back as princess riding a unicorn and they say ‘this sucks’

Trope subversion is always difficult since there is naturally so little training data in most checkpoints (SD, XL, etc.) that reverses things like this (mermaid with human legs and fish head, Cerberus with five heads, a piano where natural keys are black and the sharps/flats are white, etc.)

Outside of manual control like ControlNets / Inpainting or a custom LoRa, there's not much you can do except "re-roll" hoping you'll get lucky.
