Template Assets: The Bone Border Construction Toolkit
This is a large asset set based on the dedicated border assets as above and vectors mostly from MOR: The Road. Biomechanicals like the 'Creator' are also based on these vectors

Definitely video game vibes with this one, particularly because of the instructions themselves, could totally see that in a Zelda game or something like it.
 
 

Thanks Stuart. . .I do too! 😃

And now to delve a bit deeper into the mythology.

Another fanciful idea.

I have two complaints with the Object Selection Tool (OST): 
1.     I use focus stacking on flower images and after stacking I frequently need to separate the subject from the background in order to achieve background uniformity.  OST does a horrible job on complex images at isolating the background, especially with the small black areas between the petals and the leaves. I have tried using the “Refine” brushes (Matte, Foreground, and Background) and when they work, they do a decent job, but unfortunately their performance is not precise nor is it consistent and I generally end up having to patch it manually using a small black paint brush.
I spent about 3 hours cleaning up this image. There doesn’t seem to be any consistent rhyme or reason to what is selected and what is not selected other than the OST can’t seem to find very small interstices. It does an adequate job (not perfect) on the perimeter of the flower but fails miserably on the inside of the image (even misses some of the large areas).
 
2.     The second problem pertains to AP 2.6.3 suffering intermittent crashes when I am using OST (iMac 2025, OS 15.5, M4 chip).  I have been unable to isolate the cause and unfortunately, I did not save the crash reports.

Another fanciful idea.

Oh, just my usual brand!
I wanted to get all whacko with this one, something Rivenesque = Riven.
To you and I, that's an old game by Cyan.

Nice…(what exactly are you smoking?? 😁)

I was just going to say - reminds me of Myst (Riven, Exile). In cleaning up my storage room I found all three versions on CD.

Love the detail in this one. . .very busy with lots of perceived depth. 😉
Brilliant!

Thought I would try something a little different this time.

Yup.
In robot land she's considered a beauty beyond compare.
