Heroes x Villains multiverse
A character combining Batman and the Joker, dressed in a dark, armored suit with chaotic splashes of purple and green. Their mask is half Bat-like, sleek and intimidating, and half painted with a twisted grin. The character is exuding an aura of order and chaos in a dimly lit, graffiti-streaked Gotham alley
In this multiverse challenge, heroes and villains merge into singular entities, showcasing the most iconic qualities of both sides—strength, cunning, and power. Their costumes and suits are reimagined, blending heroism with menace, creating characters that embody duality in both personality and design. Each creation tells a story of balance, conflict, and unity in a world where good and evil are one.

I like to start my prompts broad, narrow it down, and then tweak from there. My beginning prompt is simply “an image of a fantastical steampunk ship with HG Wells feels on old-timey paper to resemble blueprints for the ship”.
Calling all inventors of imagination! Unleash your inner HG Wells in a steampunk-inspired masterpiece where gears, steam, and Victorian wonder collide. It doesn’t have to be a vehicle or structure; the only limit is your imagination.

[Community Challenge 42] Ultimate Ride
Design your ideal mode of transportation! Whether inspired by fantasy, sci-fi, or your own imagination, future or past, show us the ultimate way to travel!
That's a great challenge!
Would you mind adding [Community Challenge 57] in front of your title though? It would make it in line with the other challenges and easier to spot.
Edit: Thanks!
Once again, thank you for all the hard work you put into maintaining the instance.
While you are at it, I wonder if you can check the configuration for pinned/featured posts.
It appears that lemmy.cafe instance doesn't always show pinned posts at the top. For example:
https://lemmy.cafe/c/[email protected]
If you refer to the original instance, there should be a pinned post with the title "[Community Challenge 50] The Space Race".
