AI Mustang – One Man And His Mustang

Everybody likes a customised wallpaper either on their home desktop PC, Laptop or mobile phone. With that in mind I have selected a few I use and decided to share them with you. I have and added to a new Menu option called “Downloads”, click on the link and you will be taken to a page where I intend to add more as I go along. Let me know what I should add or you would like to see on there.

Website navigation menu highlighting the 'Downloads' section.

Once you found what you like, from the Desktop options three so far, or the mobile device options (six so far) click on the ‘Download’ button. They are all free and I haven’t added any watermarks. Lets face it, even if I did, you could remove them with various tools available.

The desktop options are these at the moment, a manor house with a Mustang. Two AI generated scenes, sunset and evening with the cars lights on.

The mobile device options are varied, all high quality photos. They are a large sized images which should allow you to move them around and zoom in and out depending on you device. You could use them as your main screen or maybe just a lock screen.

There’s plenty of space at the top to add your favourite apps.

Next month my pride and joy will be backed out the garage for a pre season clean and service. That’s tends to be a full weekend process. Oil change, air filter clean, fluids and tyres and brakes checked. Once all the dirty stuff has been done, I then remove the old wax, apply base sealer, coloured base wax (blue), first layer with a top quality wax which is allowed to cure for twenty four hours. The final top wax allowed to cure for a further two hours then buffed to a shine. Glass polished, seats, carpets and not forgetting the headliner all given an interior detail. The trunk are is emptied out, as more often than not the odd bit of grass creeps in when putting my chair away. Chrome is polished all over the car. After the service, the engine bay is cleaned out and the engine given a degrease and wipe down. While the car is draining the oil and the filter changed, it’s an ideal time to clean the oil pan, gearbox pan which is chrome, and the suspension a clean. I exhausts me just thinking about it, but it’s worth the effort.

With the current state of affairs around the world fuel has gone up stupid amounts here in the UK. So it will be painful to fill up with the premium fuel, my car only seems to like Shell V-Power, anything else and the car runs rough.

But, it’s all about the smiles per gallon, not the miles!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year.

Each year I try and create a little Christmas message with my car as the centre point. It takes a little while to mess around in Photoshop, but I think they look OK for an amateur. This year I have tried something a little different with varying results using the big buzz term ‘AI’ or ‘Artificial Intelligence’. The images were created pretty quickly – around 20 seconds or so on average across the various websites.

I visited quite a few sites by the end of the session, some sites required you to create an account which was rather annoying while others were free with adverts. Some were just so confusing I didn’t bother continuing with them. Each site had the same copy and pasted instructions, ‘Christmas scene with 1966 Ford Mustang blue coupe’. Looking closely at the images there was a theme of the ’65 grill bars for the Coral. Some of the Coral horses were a bit strange, but acceptable.

The winner I chose was this one, I only added the text at the top. It meet with my expectations of a Christmas scene and a car, it just looked festive. The only issues (apart from the scale of the car) that I spotted was the ’65 grill bars and the ‘F O R D’ on the hood had an extra letter!

This runner up was a very good image apart from ‘Christmas’ wording being repeated. The grill had a single spot light, extra hood letter and what looks like ’65 quarter emblems. Without the extra light and wording this could have been the winner.

For third place this image had very good rendering. I was particularly impressed with the reflection of the tree in the paintwork, and it just didn’t look like an after thought pasted into the image.

In fourth place, I’m not sure what lettering was on the hood, but I think it might say ‘Lincoln’. This was a great render, but it just looked like a car had been pasted onto the background, I still liked it though!

Then we have this, which wasn’t too bad for a cartoon style (I think), but it has been chopped off at each end.

Not sure what this effort was all about! Half fastback with dodgy rear quarter lights and no hint of Christmas.

I don’t think the Ford stylists have much to worry about with this ‘Coupeback‘ design. Have I just made up a new word up in the Mustang community! Has it been used before, although I haven’t seen it anywhere.

All these AI images are heavily dependant on what you put in as a prompt, what style of image you select can have a significant affect on the results. Adding extra words like, snow, no red tyres, or decorate the Christmas tree helped improve the images. I spent far to much time playing around with the many excellent variables. I had a bit of fun laughing at some of the results, then on the other hand some were pretty impressive. Where will all this go in the future? I don’t know, but one thing is for sure – it’s here to stay and it will get better!

See you all in the New Year.
