Did you know that in Tengr.ai, you can get endless results just by trying out all the tools it offers? Styles, color tones, camera angles, processing modes—there are so many options to explore! You just have to play around with them and see what works best for you.
With this tutorial, I wanted to show how much a single prompt can change just by switching styles or using different processing modes. So, I picked an example to test it out!
I picked one of my favorite images ever—a soft, foamy figure that looks like it belongs in a futuristic art exhibit.
Now, I know what some of you might be thinking: “This is a bit… pink?” That’s totally true. But the focus in this tutorial isn’t on this specific image or color palette. It’s about showing how the different styles and modes can completely transform any image. Whether you’re into neon-lit cyberpunk, dark fantasy warriors, or ultra-realistic landscapes, the same principles apply.
You’ll see just how much you can experiment and mix things up. However, if you have a totally different vibe, and prefer something darker, just try to apply these techniques with a prompt that it’s more to your taste.
Alright, let’s get started!
All the Ways You Can Transform a Single Prompt
One of the things I love most about Tengr.ai is how much you can experiment with a single prompt. There are so many built-in tools that can completely change an image’s look and feel even without touching the prompt. Here are some options:
- There are 25 styles, plus the Transparent style, each with its own distinctive look and charm. Whether you prefer the realism of the Photographer style, the whimsical character of Fairytale, the dark atmosphere of Horror, the expressive strokes of Impasto, the clean precision of Line Art, or the artistic flair of Illustration, or any other, they all add a unique twist that completely transforms the same prompt.
- Also, you can use Tengr.ai’s Image-to-Image processing modes to enhance or completely transform an image. There are 8 different processing modes, each designed for a specific task. It’s a great way to experiment and push an image in different directions until it looks just right.
- Color Tones and Camera Angles help you adjust the mood, composition, and perspective of your image. You can even give a new color tone to an existing image. (Keep in mind that the Camera Angles selector only works in Text-to-Image generation.)
- Finally, there are two different generating modes: Seer and Servitor. These interpret the prompt in different ways, tailored to different user needs and prompting skill levels. Seer can create stunning, complex images from very short prompts. This makes it ideal for beginners, or users in need of inspiration. Servitor mode, on the other hand, will add no interpretation, it will stick closely to your prompt. It’s perfect for experienced users who use detailed, specific prompts.
I always like to play around with a prompt, testing it across different styles and modes until I get something stunning. Sometimes, I even run an image through multiple processing modes, layering effects to create depth and unique details that I wouldn’t get otherwise. These tweaks can completely transform an image, but that’s what makes it fun!
Let’s see these tools in action:
Examples: Same Prompt, Different Results
The prompt that I used for all the images and variations was this:
“Abstract digital artwork of a fragmented foam-like silhouette dissolving into swirling, fluid rainbow currents. Vibrant gradients of magenta and gold. Ethereal particle effects and soft, radiant glow. Inspired by Android Jones’ cosmic abstraction and Zdzisław Beksiński’s surreal textures. The face disintegrates into organic, otherworldly forms, dynamic motion, and layered translucency against a dark, infinite void.“
I will show you how the simplest action of changing the style setting can entirely transform an image and give many different results:
I selected Car style, set Creativity to 4 (Inspired), and Details to 5 (Ornate). Then, I decided to go with Servitor mode, which is placed right next to the Generate button.
Abstract Ink style took a different turn, resulting in some really interesting images, entirely different from the previous ones:
Now, let’s see the same prompt in Portraiture style. It’s really impressive:
Next, let’s check out my favorites! The results from Line Art style are the ones I like the most from this series. These were all created in Servitor mode, Creativity level at 3 (Creative) and Details at 5 (Ornate), Line Art style. Look at those details and textures:
Here’s what I got when I set the Creativity level to 4 (Inspired):
And in Seer mode:
Next, let’s take a look at Machinart style, which gave me the best results in Seer mode:
Now, let’s see what other variations we can get using the same prompt and Image processing modes. These modes can completely transform an image—even without changing a single word in the prompt.
I took one of the Line Art images because I found it interesting to refine further. To do this, I went to the Image processing menu and chose the Creative mode, while keeping the same prompt.
If you want to modify an image with Tengr.ai’s Image processing function, here’s the easiest way:
- Click on the image you want to refine further.
- At the bottom of the image, you’ll see a small arrow. Click on it.
- A menu will appear with three different options. Here select Image to Image.
This lets you enhance, add depth, and experiment with your image while keeping its core idea. It’s one of the best ways to get even more detailed and unique results!
I kept the prompt exactly the same—the only change I made was switching to Machinart style in Seer mode. And I think this gave me the most surprising results of all! I did not expect this head at all, but it turned out to be one of my favorites.
And, in Aquarelle style:
I also wanted to show you the effect of Depth processing, which can completely transform the look of an image while still keeping the original composition and structure intact.
Again, the only change I made was selecting Depth mode and switching styles.
Now, let’s take a look at the other image with the head we previously mentioned. I transformed it using Depth mode, with different styles applied.
Fairytale style:
Impasto and Aquarelle:
Time to try something a little darker with the Horror style…See? Not so pink anymore!
Let me show you how easy it is to completely change the image, including the subject—if that’s what you want. All I did was change the prompt and select Creative processing mode. You can either add an extra element to your prompt or completely change it, it’s up to your imagination.
Instead of the original prompt, I simply wrote: “A samurai.”, and then, I tried it with Abstract Ink and Illustration styles to see how it would turn out. In this case, the color palette and some of the structure stayed the same, but the image still reflected exactly what I asked for. I really loved the results and the extra details it added.
With this tutorial, I wanted to show you just how many possibilities Tengr.ai has to offer. The most important thing is to keep experimenting until you create something that feels unique and stunning to you.
Everyone has different tastes, but I’m sure that with Tengr.ai’s various tools, you’ll find a way to generate images that match your own style!
