I used an AI to make paintings using only the terms “Baduk” and “Weiqi.” Thoughts?

walking / moving camera forward didn’t work, but it looks cool only with these words.

I wonder what’s the prompt used to create this picture

5 Likes

General Prompt (for Midjourney, DALL-E 3, or similar)

This prompt aims to capture the core elements of the image: a castle, a Go board, and a specific art style.

a castle made of a go board and go stones, with a go board as the ground, on a cliff overlooking the ocean, in the style of fantasy art, detailed, epic lighting, concept art


More Detailed Prompts

These prompts add more specific instructions to fine-tune the result.

Midjourney

Midjourney often benefits from specific style keywords and aspect ratio settings.

castle made of a go board and go stones, go board as the ground, a cliff overlooking the ocean, fantasy art, unreal engine 5, octane render, cinematic lighting, hyper-realistic, 8k, --ar 16:9

DALL-E 3

DALL-E 3 is excellent at understanding natural language and complex concepts.

A highly detailed, realistic illustration of a large, intricate castle built entirely from a go board and black and white go stones. The castle sits on a cliffside, with the ground also appearing as a go board. The scene is set overlooking a vast ocean with a city on the distant shore. The art style should be epic and fantastical, with dramatic, cinematic lighting.


What Makes These Prompts Effective?

  • Subject & Objects: They clearly define the main elements: “castle made of a go board and go stones” and “go board as the ground.”

  • Setting: They specify the location: “on a cliff overlooking the ocean.”

  • Art Style: They use keywords like “fantasy art,” “detailed,” “concept art,” and “hyper-realistic” to guide the AI toward the desired aesthetic.

  • Lighting & Atmosphere: Words like “cinematic lighting” and “epic lighting” help create the mood.

You can try these prompts yourself and experiment by adding or removing details to see how the image changes.

@GoMamba I was so inspired by your magnificent Dragons Go graphic that I changed one line in the poem from ‘Two minds upon a silent stage…’ to ‘Dragon minds…’.

Here’s the Dragons Go OST to go with it!

RENGO & Ladder Story Telling @Sadaharu & OGSers ???

WEIQI WAY: The Go Dragons

[SCENE START]

EXT. OGS PLANET - DRAGON MOUNTAIN PATH - SUNRISE

A magical, ethereal path winds through a misty forest.

The path is paved with flat, grey stones, but scattered among them are smooth, glowing white and polished black stones that look like Go pieces.

Fireflies flicker in the grassy areas, adding to the soft light. In the distance, a glowing, shifting vortex of light appears to be the source of the path.

NARRATOR (V.O.)

Once upon a time, on the OGS Planet, dragons didn’t hoard gold or jewels. They were the keepers of something far more precious.

EXT. OGS PLANET - FLOATING DRAGON CASTLE - NIGHT

The perspective shifts to a massive castle floating among the stars, held in the coils of a magnificent, winged stone dragon.

Graphic 1002_ by @GoMamba

The castle itself resembles an ancient Go board, with smaller dragon-like creatures flitting about in the night sky.

NARRATOR (V.O.)

They were the keepers of Go. Not just a game, but a way of life.

The Dragons of Go, led by the Elder Dragon, were tasked with protecting the balance of the universe, one move at a time.

EXT. OGS PLANET - MISTY VALLEY - DAY

A different path of Go stones curves through a foggy valley, surrounded by towering, angular mountains and ancient buildings.

A serpentine dragon, made of sparkling white stones, floats gracefully above the path.

Graphic 1003_by @square.defender

NARRATOR (V.O.)

For generations, they taught the way of WeiQi—the path of the surrounding game.

They taught that every stone, every decision, had the power to create and to destroy.

EXT. OGS PLANET - MYSTICAL RIVER - SUNSET

The camera pans over a river filled with Go stones, flowing from a vibrant, swirling galaxy in the sky. The banks are lined with glowing mushrooms and strange, twisting trees. The path of stones on the opposite bank leads toward a futuristic cityscape.

Graphic 1004_by @square.defender

NARRATOR (V.O.)

But the true balance wasn’t in black and white, or victory and defeat. It was in the wisdom of how they moved.

The Dragons of Go knew that the strength of a stone wasn’t in its individual power, but in its connection to others. It was the WeiQi Way.

[SCENE END]

Only downside is that it’s in blue and white, but I don’t think that matters much.

It’s interesting going back to the early posts in this thread to see how much image generation quality has progressed over the years. I took a few older prompts and reran them through Google Gemini :banana:
