TL;DR

  • PRMPT MAG’s MARBLE VANDAL pairs 26 corrupted classical-bust plates with prompt tokens, according to ai_artworkgen’s announcement.
  • Rendering directions specify a screenprint finish, including halftone grain on a bone-white background, in one published excerpt.
  • A companion color index records shadows, midtones and highlights for every plate, according to ai_artworkgen’s post.

Censored Divine combines marble, obsidian and a censorship bar in its token list, while Fungal Baroque introduces oyster mushrooms and desaturated pink flesh. The sharpest art direction in the rendering notes is “tonal banding instead of modelling.”

Marble and obsidian

Issue 004 gives its central rule as “The glitch is the chisel.” Plate 02, Censored Divine, comes with five prompt phrases:

  • neoclassical bust corruption
  • marble and obsidian duality
  • digital sculpture
  • glitch censorship bar
  • material decay

Screenprint lighting

The longer rendering excerpt specifies a print treatment through six directions:

  • “Screenprint logic throughout”
  • “Flat illustrative light”
  • “Tonal banding instead of modelling”
  • “Granite speckle”
  • “Halftone grain”
  • “Bone-white void”

VHS degradation

Plate 14, Glitch Monarch, is captioned “VHS tape degradation” and paired with these tokens:

  • vaporwave aesthetic
  • glitch art corruption
  • KAWS X-eyes motif
  • neon pink drip effect
  • cyan interference patterns

Pixel sorting and datamoshing

Plate 18, Marble Glitch II, carries the medium label “digital corruption artifact simulation.” Its token list names two specific corruption aesthetics:

  • glitch art portrait
  • pixel sorting effect
  • chromatic aberration
  • classical sculpture aesthetic
  • data moshing

Film-stock and render labels

Other captions attach photographic and rendering references to individual plates:

The same creator’s January 2024 glitch tutorial put “shot on Kodak Ektar 100” inside a NIJI v6 prompt for a weird animal. The MARBLE VANDAL thread’s text names no image-generation model, so these medium labels alone do not establish which tools produced the plates.

Chromatic index

ai_artworkgen arranges the chromatic index in the plates’ running order, reporting measured colors across three tonal ranges:

  • Shadows
  • Midtones
  • Highlights
