Digital collage and post with cs6 Thanks for views and comments. Steampunk is one of my favorite styles to explore. To do Digital Collage Ai you need software that has Layers ( EG: the Gimp - free). Many text to image online sites have some basic free tries that renew next day. Basically i make four or more backgrounds until i find one background that feels like a good place to start. I then make numerous characters or props that i think might work with that background. I use Adobe Express online to remove the backgrounds of the characters or props. Express is good but it and many different Background Remover software have issues with backlit fine detail white. Ai images are fairly small and upscaling your images with tokens eats up a lot of free tokes, etc. There are some online sites that will double your image size, with Ai, for free ( limited number of free tokens per day) . I work at 7200 x 4050 pixels. With layers, I can adjust the overall color of a character to match the main background tone as I have done here , with the sailor. On more projects with many characters or props , via layers I can add shadows, motion trail and lights, or things like lightning layer, etc. w
