The best things in life are actually really expensive. Success is just failure that hasn’t happened yet. If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Then quit. No use being a damn fool about it. Eagles may soar, but weasels don’t get sucked into jet engines. Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe. I am free of all prejudice. I hate everyone equally. I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal. Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is you’re stupid and make bad decisions. Everyone has a purpose in life. Perhaps yours is watching television. Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment. I’ve developed a new philosophy. I only dread one day at a time.

I messed around with NJ a little more this morning. While it’s certainly better than straight MJ, it still fails a considerably high percentage of the time when generating complex scenes. By fail, I mean that anatomical elements are borked, background characters are completely out of scale, etc.
Let’s take a look at some of my results:

These ballgown/ballroom scenes are all fairly simple and the AI manages without issue. However, prompt for a more complicated scene and you see how quickly things can fall apart:

durrrrrrr

I can’t tell you how many (dozens) re-rolls I attempted to get one or two good results. Now, Stable can’t necessarily do better, so I’m not really shitting on NJ/MJ here. Perhaps my expectations grew unrealistic after my rather successful- but admittedly simple- initial results.

Still, I had time and the willingness to persevere in order to get some plugsuit-ery:

I felt that these two could tell a bit of a story… As our companion changes, so do we:

Next up are a few casual scenes. The single subject and simple background is where the AI really shines and it only took a couple re-rolls to get results that I genuinely liked:

I wasn’t intending to share a million images or write much more than what I have, so I’ll leave things off here… With Asuka’s Parisian vacation!
