Wild Habitat Evolution

The climate has shifted to extremes, forcing animals to leave their natural habitats and evolve in extraordinary ways to survive. Tropical creatures now thrive in frozen tundras or high-altitude mountains, while Antarctic animals have adapted to endure scorching heat and arid deserts. Some land animals have transformed to live in water, and aquatic creatures now flourish on land.

Prompt: scan of a medieval manuscript with latin writing and doodles in the margines, containing a rough pencil sketch, of A knight riding an ostrich, the knight is holding a jousting lance, the ostrich has TWO legs, a sea and a coastal town can be seen in the background, the title "Hastiludium" is handwritten in cursive script. --chaos 10 --stylize 200 --weird 300

It was so annoying to create this ostrich, for some reason whenever a knight is sitting on something, the animal immediately gets a minimum of three legs.
Also, for those who actually know Latin, I just pushed "joust" through Google translate. I have no idea if this is correct or not :)

Workflow:

1. Create base image

2. Convert to Medieval manuscript

3. Outpaint to include writing

Alternatives:

Some alternatives made with the retexturing tool:

17th century oil painting

Claymation

Synthwave

The main seat of the Utrecht public library is 132 years old and used to be a postal office.

I really love the architecture, the main hall always impresses me whenever I visit.

This is the vantage point from where I took the photo, helpfully highlighted by the halo :)

Edit: I’m an idiot who can’t read critically. The institute of the Utrecht library is 132 years old. The old post office building is exactly 100 years old.
Sorry for giving the wrong information.

Prompt: An early 1900s photograph, low angle shot, An angry sperm whale-like snake sliding down a steep mountain slope, its mouth wide open as it tries to eat the viewer, trees are torn from the soil and debris is flying everywhere, action shot

One of the cryptids I came across when looking for inspiration for a previous challenge. The Slide-rock bolter is just such a weird creation.
It's a whale-like creature that hangs at the top of a slope, waiting for a tourist to walk by below. When that happens, it would slide down the slope at high speed, using it's saliva as a lubricant, and eat the hapless passerby in one gulp. Using its momentum it would then slide up the other mountain to find a new hiding spot.

It's so ridiculous, I just love it :)
