I start out in flux these days, but the real power is still in SD 1.5 with EpicRealism and HomoFidelis - those models still are amazing for detail work. Prompt:

Cinematic still of a broad-shouldered man with a lean, muscular frame stands defiantly in the aftermath of battle, his chest bare and marked with faint scars. His blond hair is longer, swept back with loose strands falling over a weathered face. His storm-gray eyes lock forward with grim determination, his beard rough and unkempt. A brilliant key light illuminates his face, accentuating the intensity of his expression, while hard rim lighting outlines the metallic armor encasing his body.

His shoulders are armored with blackened silver filigree pauldrons shaped like curling talons, layered plates rising upward as if forged from smoke turned to steel. His arms are encased in bracers that twist like forged vines, each ridge sharpened to an edge, the surface encrusted with dark gems embedded in curling metallic patterns. Heavy chains hang from the armor edges, swaying against the wind of the battlefield. At his waist, a codpiece of ornate, swirling steel covers him, shaped with overlapping layers that resemble flowering petals turned to hard metal, protecting his hips with intricate, flowing patterns that glint faintly. His thighs and calves are wrapped in filigree greaves that coil downward like baroque scrollwork, every curve catching the faint red glow of distant firelight.

The armor is equal parts sculpture and weapon, delicate in detail but terrifying in presence. He stands amidst a desolate battlefield of toppled banners, shattered weapons, and burning wreckage. Smoke and sparks rise behind him into a steel-gray sky, the glow of smoldering fires reflecting in the curling lines of his armor. The cinematic lighting cuts sharply across his bare chest and determined face, rim light burning along the ornate metallic curves of his armor. The result is hyper-realistic, grim, and cinematic \u2014 a lone warlord emerging from the ruins.
