Process Timelapse
The car model is something I already built and textured in Max/Corona, but the recording began as I started using Stable Diffusion.
I took a small render from Corona and painted in a figure using a segmentation map. The chosen render was upscaled using Mixture of Diffusers and NMKD Artisoftject, adjusted in Photoshop, then upscaled again to add detail and fix problems.
This process of painting sections and using Tiled Diffusion to clean it up is pretty much what I'm doing the whole video with different sections of the image. Sometimes I'm reducing the size of the crop by 50% and adding blur, so as to give it some creative leeway on the upscaled image.
At one point I realized it couldn't figure out how to render the steering wheel so I re-rendered the original image with no reflectivity, upscaled that bit, and painted the reflection in.
