Let's start with a request of mine. I am looking for a picture that would meet the following points:
- Male character, either a genasi or close enough.
- Manifesting two or more elemental powers at once.
- If wielding a weapon, must be a one-handed sword.
- If armored, vital organs must be covered by armor.
- Preferably holding a shield.
Here are a few pictures that came close. These contain links to larger versions.
Thank you if you can find this for me. But in any case, enjoy the picture thread!
Edit: Additional pictures.

Re: Dungeons and Dreamboats X: Charisma-Modified Armor Class
This is not particularly large but it hits a few of your requests.
Not sure what you would call 'close enough' for genasi
If you count the fire in the background as one of his elemental powers you got two elements.

Re: Dungeons and Dreamboats X: Charisma-Modified Armor Class
It is going to end up on a character sheet, so don't worry too much about resolution.

I might end up using this simple picture of an earth genasi, and point at this gallery for how much more bizarre the character can get.

Also, I don't know how well people remember the dreamboat threads, but this one hopefully doesn't end with my resquest. Post and/or ask for character portraits at your leisure.
Edit: Found an earth genasi I like more overall, even if he is not wearing his armor.

Re: Dungeons and Dreamboats X: Charisma-Modified Armor Class
Decided to practice my photo-editing a bit, not to happy with the face on the first one.
Anyone have some images of aliens that don't look human or human like and aren't readily recognizable from major sci-fi franchises?
I am collecting a bunch for a sci-fi game I am running but I seem to be getting mostly recolored humans, cyberpunk stuff and Star Trek/Wars in my searches.

Re: Dungeons and Dreamboats X: Charisma-Modified Armor Class
I actually love the tortured face! It goes well with my low-Charisma character. The spells in hand are also great, especially the fire one in the second picture. My character will have produce flame, a spell that can be held like a torch before being thrown at an enemy.
It is the flaming/lightning swords I am less sure about. My character will not have spells other than low-level racial ones, and so elemental weapon is not on the menu. I suppose the party could find a magic sword at some point but I don't want to make such bets.
Of course, I realize that I didn't mention those were a problem on the pictures I shared in my opening post. Whoops!
If you can make such edits, perhaps I should look for a picture of a regular human or genasi fighter that I like and ask you to change their face and stuff.

I mainly use Pinterest, though obviously it doesn't always give me exactly what I am looking for.
Edit: Found a picture that I think would be good to edit.
Could you do something like...
- make the magic in his hand look more snowy,
- put some electricity in his hair,
- and put some fire in his beard?

Re: Dungeons and Dreamboats X: Charisma-Modified Armor Class
I threw the prompt at Midjourney and came up with a couple things.
Spoiler: A somewhat more human but still kinda Genasi looking dual element (fire/lighting) portrait
Spoiler: More non-human, although whether that's ice or blue fire is maybe up to interpretation
Spoiler: And a cool bearded one that popped out if that's more your jam

Re: Dungeons and Dreamboats X: Charisma-Modified Armor Class
Yes, nicely exotic. Should have mentioned bonus points for modern equipment but those are still great.
How about this? I left the skin alone since you didn't mention anything. But I could probably texture it a bit.
The lightning is traveling through him, you can see sparks along the shield and through his head as it travels from the ground like he is just spilling energy as he tries to focus on his real spell.
Tried to reflect some glow from the beard across the metal parts but at this resolution it is a little hard.

Re: Dungeons and Dreamboats X: Charisma-Modified Armor Class
AI-generated images usually make me feel very uncomfortable, but this one is pretty dope. I really like the waves in his hair and how these also seem to turn into clouds. Combined with the fire in his eyes, and the one he seems to be holding, this is a really great chaos genasi!
I didn't know what to think of the crown and the... nape scales? But then I remembered that I was going for a genasi of the Elemental Chaos but of Lawful Neutral alignment, and realized that this strange headwear could be a religious symbol or spiritual statement.
The picture worked as a link to a slightly higher resolution. 729x992 instead of 564x767. Here is the link again.
I like where this is going. I didn't think that you would replace the runes with a snow crystal but I am glad you did. For the skin, I would love if you made it stone-grey and cracked.
Good, good! I am going to use one picture as a close-up portrait and the other to represent the character in battle.
Oh and don't worry if the two pictures don't have much resemblance beside the guy having a beard. The elements turn into each other, and he is neither a cleric nor a paladin so his battle gear wouldn't include those scales.

Since OP's prompt has been answered, I'll offer a new one: All things Sci-fi.
And I'll lead us off with a Starfinder image dump:
