Midjourney does colour well

Midjourney uses dark purples, blues and greens with an emphasis on nighttime pictures with the default prompt: painting of a cyberpunk character --v 6.0 --ar 3:2.

However Midjourney does understand colors which can create a different feel or at least a different style:

Prompt : painting of a cyberpunk character in the colors of Light Salmon, Pale Teal and Pastel Yellow --v 6.0 --ar 3:2

Other examples :

Prompt : a painting of a cyberpunk character in the colors of Tangerine, Aqua and sunny yellow --v 6.0 --ar 3:2

Prompt : painting of a cyberpunk character in the colors of Golden Brown, Slate Gray and Moss Green --v 6.0 --ar 3:2

The examples show that Midjourney does color variations not just main color names. The names need to be used. Hexadecimal, specified in graphics programs, is not understood.

With two elements there can be some mixing but the results are still impressive:

Prompt : a group of people looking at a conceptual art piece on the wall of a gallery. The people are in the colors; Charcoal Gray, Crimson Red, Light Gray. The art piece is in the color Aqua Green --v 6.0 --ar 3:2

The color combinations were from a chatgpt query like :

Me: User You are an artistic expert in using color. Provide a list of ten combinations of 3 colors which work well together in contemporary graphic design. These will be in a format which can be used in an AI art program such as Midjourney.

8: Glitter Avenue

To the northeast of Center Circuit, and thus directly to the north of Bright Future, you’ll find an extravagant area of glittering jewels and brilliant neon, both of which keep this section of the park looking nice and shiny no matter what time of day it is. It’s a place of bright lights and cheerful sounds, even among the dead shambling around in garish costumes.

It’s a place for performers, with staff in tuxedos and dancers with furs and feathers lining their leotards. A place of perched bunny ears and tall tophats, where three skyscrapers stand as hotels and casinos, places for people to play and enjoy themselves, before Hell comes knocking on their doors with chewed down fingers and smiling mouths.

You’ve seen plenty of zombies with their lips torn off, yet none looked like they were smiling nearly as much as these poor creatures. They were just carved that way.

Back to the Avenue, the area, as mentioned, consists of three major hotels/casinos, where you can find all sorts of attractions and items, both helpful and novelty. The rows of slot machines may be somewhat tricky to navigate, and you can find a third group of hunters here simply called the Looters, who are doing exactly that with the machines, but they’re on the same level of the Scalpers, so not really much to worry about so long as you’re well-equipped and good at moving undetected. Really, the only differences is that they tend to wear hoodies and yellow instead of red, so we’ll be moving along to more interesting things, like what the casinos are actually called and what you can expect there.

The first is Lethe, the second is Nova, and the third is Styx, each color-coded in teal, gold, and vermillion, and marked by the statue out front; Lethe has a fountain of naked sea nymphs and mermaids with tridents, Nova has a huge sphinx, and Styx has an obelisk as black as the darkest New Moon midnight. If you hear humming and chanting coming from the obelisk, ignore that, it won’t help you.

Of the three, Lethe is probably the least immediately threatening, if just because the Looters are aiming more for the big gold casino and the real threat of the area is largely holed up in Styx. Not to say Lethe isn’t full of threats though; the main stage has a large, open clam in front of a pool where you can see the game hosts’ attempts at creating mermaids, which was surprisingly both easier and harder than attempting to create a minotaur. 

Things progressed far quicker when the hosts realized they needed an extra set of organs for the fish half, and that using dolphins for material just made things less complicated. Mammals work best with mammals, after all, and once the base creature was functional, adding in scales was just a little extra work.

As such, the finished product does look like properly eerie mermaids, with sagging, clammy skin, maws full of sharp teeth, and gleaming green eyes that peer out from curtains of black, dripping hair. They’re oddly not too hostile if provided food though; they’ll definitely pull you into their tanks and eat you alive if they get the opportunity, but some part of them is capable of recognizing the difference between prey and helpers, possibly as a consequence of their designers wanting these semi-aquatic beasties to be able to use spears.

Right, the mermaids can also use spears and tridents, so don’t try to antagonize them at a distance. They have shockingly good throwing arms.

They’re also largely confined to the aquariums of Lethe, so you likely won’t have to worry too much about them unless the park floods, and what are the chances of that happening?

Onward to Nova, this gorgeous, golden casino, decorated with vinyls along the walls and proud motorcycles in the halls, is filled with glitz, glamor, and an ongoing turf war between the Scalpers and the Looters, who both really want to hold territory in the casino that proclaims its name in gold diamonds.

It certainly is a good place to try to rob if you want to make it out of the park as a rich survivor, which is likely why it’s filled with actual death traps. Spike pits, buzzsaws, flamethrowers, etc. Things that, once activated, turn the whole building into even more of a death trap than it already is with the zombies and the hunters around, so do your best not to set them off by trying to steal anything shiny behind the glass cases. Or do and see if the traps will off your competition without too much work on your part, though you’ll almost certainly be consigning any other survivors inside to certain death too.

But really, this is a place of self-interest. It’s up to you, either way.

Lastly in our lovely section is Styx, the grand crimson casino where a man with a sniper rifle is waiting to blow the heads off of anyone stupid enough to approach his shelter. Cedric Crosswhite is a man as pretentious and arrogant as his name would imply, and he certainly sells that impression further with his full white tuxedo. 

Some may call him a dashing man with his solid build and swept back blond hair; other, more accurate people, who would call him an entitled prick who paid exorbitant amounts of money to get to treat an amusement park as his own personal shooting gallery with a high-powered sniper rifle. Indeed, he’s one of the primary financiers of this venture, so don’t think you can handle him easily.

Not because he himself is any real threat, aside from simply being a decently muscular dude with a very big gun, which is still a decent threat particularly since he has no qualms about blowing your head off. No, the real thing to worry about is the bodyguards he had commissioned from the Hunt’s hosts. You’ll meet them eventually, and they’ll be far more of a problem when you do.

So keep your head down while you’re in the avenue. Among all the looting and shooting, you can still stay out of sight, but the tall grass gets the reaper’s scythe. Try not to stand out.
