Prompt: scan of a medieval manuscript with latin writing and doodles in the margines, containing a rough pencil sketch, of A knight riding an ostrich, the knight is holding a jousting lance, the ostrich has TWO legs, a sea and a coastal town can be seen in the background, the title “Hastiludium” is handwritten in cursive script. --chaos 10 --stylize 200 --weird 300

It was so annoying to create this ostrich, for some reason whenever a knight is sitting on something, the animal immediately gets a minimum of three legs.
Also, for those who actually know Latin, I just pushed “joust” through Google translate. I have no idea if this is correct or not :)

Workflow:

1. Create base image

2. Convert to Medieval manuscript

3. Outpaint to include writing

Alternatives:

    An inspiring, simple, yet powerful workflow, and I think it lead to a beautiful and interesting result! Lovely pixelart input as well.

    I just started doodling with pixels myself about a week ago in the PixaPencil app, and your work here makes me want to try something along the same lines. I’ve also been thinking of outpainting from a 64x64 or such already, keeping the style consistent, just to see what would appear by expanding infinite worlds from my own small pixelart seeds. Have you tried something like that?
