I GOT REALLY CLOSE AND I AM SO HAPPY THANK YOU GUYS FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE!!! I still have zero idea what happened to my original prompt at this point - I think I must have cleared my search history after having done it - but these great tips did wonders for me!
Bing prompt:
deer-skull-headed leshen with mermaid tail relaxes in druid's grove lake. tiny gold chains festoon the antlers on his deer-skull head. He is admiring a glowing orb in his bony hand. magical, serene, peaceful; digital art
This was my original sketch from a dream I’d had. A deer-skull headed skeletal merman with fish tail, antlers festooned with tiny gold chains, admiring golden chains or a gem or something along those lines, relaxing peacefully in the lake of a druid’s grove. Very peaceful, very calm, very welcoming overall feeling.
My attempts of a recreation:
That’s the closest I’ve seen yet! What was your prompt if I may ask?
The prompt was:
“create an image of a deer skeleton sitting in a pond and leaning against a white stone with some green moss on it. In the deer’s antlers there is a golden glowing string of lights. In the skeleton’s hand it holds a golden glowing ball. Around the pond there are some bare trees and it is foggy. In front of the pond there is a blackbird looking at the deer. There is more green moss on the stones around.”
I simply described the main aspects of your image to play around a bit. Bing gave me several other pictures that looked quite different - these two were the only ones where the elements were at the right position and the perspective was similar to the original. It the first pic I didn’t have the moss in the prompt so I added that with the second generation.
