This image was created by Stable Diffusion with the following prompt:

Negative prompts – (worst quality, low quality, normal quality:1.8)
I have removed the background by using Photoshop’s built-in feature.
[Control + J] to duplicate the character image. [Control + Click] the middle layer and Right Click (while using the marquee selection tool) to Make work path.
Go to [Filter -> Render -> Flame] to add a new flame. If your [Flame] feature is greyed out, that means your PC’s video card is not supporting the OpenGL feature Photoshop needs to have.
In that case, please use an external plug-in like Eye Candy 7 that has the flame feature.
After adding the flame, add a Exposure adjustment layer and create a clipping mask to only affect the layer below.
Use the brush tool with white color selected, paint the greyed area with less brush opacity setting to make the image look more realistic.
After that, I merged the layers and added the usual Vibrance.
This is the end of the tutorial. 🙂
