Prompt · Original / Translation
Create a vertical black-and-white manga illustration of a serene, androgynous young Japanese musician playing a koto at night. The character has {argument name="hair color" default="silver-gray"} long layered hair with loose bangs partly covering the eyes and one thick braid draped over the right shoulder, delicate facial features, downcast closed eyes, and a quiet melancholy expression. They wear a traditional {argument name="outfit" default="light kimono with a dark obi and a translucent floral haori"}, with soft folds and subtle flower patterns on the sleeves. Show both hands in the foreground actively plucking the koto strings, with long elegant fingers and black finger picks or rings on multiple fingers; the koto fills the lower third of the image with visible wood grain, bridges, and taut parallel strings receding in perspective. Set the scene in an old Japanese room or veranda with wooden beams, shoji-style framing, shelves and hanging scrolls in shadow, opening to a moonlit garden. Outside, include exactly one full moon, clusters of hydrangea flowers, leafy shrubs, and one small stone lantern. Use dramatic moonlight from the left, deep shadows, high-detail crosshatching, fine ink linework, grayscale tones, cinematic contrast, and a slightly low close-up perspective focused on the musician’s hands and sorrowful face. No modern objects, no color, no text, no watermark.Reusable method

A detailed 3D CG render depicting an oriental fantasy girl with long mint-green hair, using high-quality PBR materials, with a dreamy garden background.
Prompt
9:16 vertical format, high-precision 3D CG oriental fantasy sweet-cool girl character poster, 3D CG oriental fantasy girl character portrait, anime-style 3D CG character art, semi-realistic 3D character render, full body portrait. The main subject is a clearly adult young female oriental fantasy character, with a visual age of about 20–24. Her overall temperament is sweet, light, energetic, dreamy, and carries a slightly impish elf-like cuteness. The overall image is not a flat illustration, but a highly finished 3D CG character render, with refined character modeling, realistic material expression, translucent colors, soft light and shadow, and a premium virtual character poster quality. The character has a refined, sweet, oriental beautiful face, a small oval face, and fair, delicate skin with slight translucency and soft skin shading. Her eyes are large and bright, with irises mixing pink-purple and light rose-purple. The pupils have delicate glass highlights, and her gaze is gentle, lively, and slightly playful and approachable. Her eyelashes are long, her eye makeup is clear and natural, her nose bridge is elegant and small, her lips are soft, and her lip color is a low-saturation sakura pink. Her expression is relaxed and cute, with a faint smile at the corners of her mouth. The hairstyle is long mint blue-green hair. The strands are full and smooth, with high-precision hair-strand modeling and a soft, bright sheen. The long hair falls naturally to the waist, with a slight curl and airy feel at the ends. There are light wispy bangs in front, and soft side locks on both sides frame the face. The character has delicate light-colored small horns, pointed ears, and a slender tail, enhancing the oriental fantasy elf / little-demon temperament. She wears a purple bow headpiece and small fantasy ornaments on her head, with refined and consistent details. The outfit preserves the sweet-cool modern feel of the original image and is adjusted into a more refined 3D CG oriental fantasy everyday look: the upper body wears a light pink cropped hoodie, with pale purple cuffs, purple bow drawstrings, and a semi-transparent heart decoration on the chest. The fabric is soft and fluffy, with realistic textile texture; The lower body wears light blue ultra-low-rise denim shorts. The cut is changed to a more form-fitting, tighter wraparound design. The denim fabric tightly fits the waist, hips, and upper thighs, and the waistband, leg openings, and hip-crotch connection areas should show fairly obvious flesh indentation and compression. The edges of the shorts slightly sink into the skin, creating natural soft fleshy rises and contours. In particular, the waist sides, hips, and upper-thigh areas should have a clear tightness and stress effect, conveying realistic tight denim material behavior rather than a loose, flat outline. It should both emphasize a slender waistline and show the realistic wrapping of close-fitting shorts around the hips and upper legs. The legs are paired with white slouch socks or soft long socks, with purple bows decorating the sock openings and shoe uppers. One thigh wears a purple thigh-ring accessory. The thigh ring needs to be visibly tightened, pressing into the thigh skin and creating relatively clear flesh indentation and soft pressure marks. There should be natural slight bulging layers of flesh above and below the thigh ring, while still remaining beautiful, delicate, and realistic, not stiff. She wears light, sweet fantasy-style shoes in white and pale purple. The overall styling is sweet, fresh, and playful, while also having a slight oriental fantasy idol feel. The character pose is a natural standing pose or slight walking pose, with one leg slightly forward, the body gently turned sideways, and both hands naturally hanging down or moving slightly. The overall posture is light and lively, with a bit of girl-idol-style friendliness. The character’s full-body proportions are long and balanced, with a slim but natural figure and a youthful, energetic feel. Remove the rings and music notes from the original image. Do not use pure flat background decorations, do not use floating music notes, and do not use geometric rings. Change the background to a dreamy oriental fantasy scene that matches the character’s temperament: a garden courtyard / elf greenhouse / fantasy corridor surrounded by cherry blossoms and hydrangeas in soft pink-purple and mint tones. The scene may include white jade railings, light flower vines, pale stone paths, dreamy flower clusters, floating glimmers, thin mist, and faintly visible distant pavilions or glass greenhouse structures. The overall setting should feel like a sweet and refined oriental fantasy secret realm. The background should be bright, clean, and translucent, with soft layering and a premium sense of space, matching the character’s cute, gentle, dreamy temperament. Lighting uses soft, bright, high-key dreamy illumination. The face is clear and translucent, with delicate highlights on the hair strands, shoulders, skirt-edge areas, and sock folds. The skin, hair, fabric, denim material, bows, shoe uppers, and fantasy accessories all have realistic and clear PBR material expression. The overall palette is mainly light pink, mint green, pale purple, milky white, and light blue. The image is sweet, refined, fresh, and dreamy, with the feeling of a high-end collectible 3D CG oriental fantasy girl character poster. high detail 3D CG render, Unreal Engine quality, Octane render look, cinematic soft lighting, PBR materials, subsurface scattering skin, realistic hair strands, pastel fantasy garden background, elegant oriental fantasy vibe, mint green long hair, small horns, elf ears, cute tail, pink cropped hoodie, denim shorts, white leg warmers, purple bows, dreamy atmosphere, volumetric light, cinematic depth of field, soft bloom, ultra detailed, polished anime realism, premium virtual character portrait negative prompt: circle halo, ring background, music note, floating music symbols, flat background, plain pink backdrop, text, watermark, logo, low quality, blurry, bad anatomy, extra fingers, fused fingers, deformed face, stiff pose, plastic skin, cluttered composition

Prompt
Goal: Create an ornate vertical fantasy playing card illustration for the {argument name="card rank and suit" default="8 of diamonds"}, featuring a glamorous anime girl as the central character. Canvas: Tall portrait playing-card format with rounded cream corners, a thin dark outer stroke, and an elaborate antique gold filigree border. Use a symmetrical card composition with the rank and suit repeated in exactly 2 corners: top-left shows a large red “8” above a red diamond pip, and bottom-right shows a large red diamond pip above a red “8”. Central subject: A beautiful young anime woman seated diagonally in a luxurious pose, one knee raised in the foreground and one hand resting near her lips. She has {argument name="hair color" default="long ash-brown hair with soft waves"}, warm brown eyes, delicate facial features, glossy skin highlights, and a calm slightly wistful expression. Her hair flows across the card and is decorated with a large deep-red patterned bow, jeweled hair ornaments, and small gold accents. Outfit and accessories: Dress her in a highly detailed gothic-lolita casino-inspired gown using {argument name="main color palette" default="black, burgundy red, antique gold, cream, and jewel ruby"}. The outfit includes exactly 6 prominent outfit/accessory groups: 1 black-and-gold embroidered corset bodice with red heart jewel accents, 1 layered burgundy-and-black ruffled skirt, 2 translucent lace puff sleeves, 1 ornate choker and necklace cluster, 1 pair of dangling diamond-shaped earrings, and 1 decorative thigh garter with gold chains and rose charms. Add many fine gold chains, lace trim, filigree embroidery, tiny beads, ruby gems, and heart motifs. Background and playing-card details: Behind her, create a dark midnight casino-fantasy background with hanging gold chains, sparkling dust, red gem fragments, and an antique clock face in the upper-right background. Include exactly 5 small floating playing cards around her: 2 on the left side, 1 near the upper-left behind her head, and 2 on the right side. The floating cards should have ornate patterned backs, tilted at different angles, with no readable numbers. Add exactly 4 visible rose clusters integrated into the border: one large cluster at upper-right, one vertical cluster along the right edge, one cluster at lower-left corner, and one small rose accent near the raised leg.

Constraints: Keep the composition framed like a single collectible playing card, not a poster. Preserve the exact rank-and-suit corner layout for the {argument name="card rank and suit" default="8 of diamonds"}. Avoid extra text, logos, watermarks, cropped borders, modern UI elements, or photorealism.
A comprehensive system prompt designed to create a high-quality, highly consistent character sheet, including multi-angle views, facial details, and architectural environment references.
Prompt
【Input Items】 Outfit type: [{argument name="Outfit type" default="Business / polished date outfit"}] Color direction: [{argument name="Color direction" default="Navy / red"}] If left blank, use “Business” and “Navy.” 【Reference Used】 One full-body reference image attached together with this instruction sheet. 【Main Text】 Use the one attached full-body reference image as the only character reference, and create one high-quality photorealistic character sheet in a 1:1 square format. If the reference image is photorealistic, maintain the same person. If it is a character illustration, convert it into a natural photorealistic person while preserving the character traits. Preserve the referenced person’s facial features, hairstyle, hair color, age impression, skin tone, gender impression, apparent height, head-to-body ratio, body type, and full-body proportions. Do not beautify, make younger, make older, change the body type, or turn them into a different person. In principle, only the outfit and shoes should be changed. 【Outfit】 Naturally adapt the specified outfit type to the referenced person’s gender, age impression, and body type. ・Business A modern, clean business style. Include a jacket, and make it neat, practical outdoor clothing. ・Polished date outfit Elegant, slightly glamorous outdoor clothing suitable for a date at a restaurant or in the city. The outfit should make the full body shape easy to see. Avoid uniforms, overly formal attire, excessively long hems, large decorations, complex layering, and brand logos. 【Color Scheme】 Use the specified color as the main color or central color of the outfit. A small number of auxiliary colors such as white, ivory, gray, and black may be added, but do not make it multicolored. ・Navy: centered on deep navy ・Red: centered on deep red, bordeaux, or wine red 【Overall Layout】 Use a two-tier composition, with the upper tier occupying about 58% and the lower tier about 42%. Do not change the basic placement, order, or proportions. 【Upper Tier: About 58%】 01 FRONT: 22% 02 SIDE: 22% 03 BACK: 22% 04 SPECIAL LOOK: 34% 01–03 should be full-body views at the same scale, fully showing the figure from the top of the head to the toes. Keep apparent height, head-to-body ratio, body type, outfit, shoes, and camera distance consistent. Use a natural upright posture, and do not let the arms or hands hide the body type or outfit. ・01 FRONT: front full body ・02 SIDE: full body from exact side view ・03 BACK: back full body 【04 SPECIAL LOOK】 A larger full-body 3/4 view of the same person in the same outfit as 01–03. Use a still pose with light movement and a natural expression that best conveys the character’s appeal. Only behind 04, a simple flat color or restrained geometric color plane using the specified color lightly may be placed. 【Lower Tier: About 42%】 Use the left 62% for 05 FACE and the right 38% for 06 BUILDING REFERENCE. 【05 FACE】 Arrange three face views, front, diagonal 3/4, and side, in a horizontal row with the same size, same camera distance, and same head position. All three should have natural normal expressions and make the facial features, eyes, contours, bangs, hairstyle, and age impression easy to confirm. 【06 BUILDING REFERENCE】 Use the entire 06 area as one wide-angle exterior image where the building front, entrance, and outdoor plaza structure can be confirmed in a single composition. Do not reflect the outfit type or color direction in 06. Make it a neutral building reference, unaffected by the person’s outfit color, the theme color of 04, or the accent colors of the overall sheet. Depict a clean, modern building front and automatic glass entrance as seen from a broad outdoor plaza, under bright, even natural daylight. Do not add night scenes, sunset scenes, warm lighting, illumination, strong color-tone effects, or staging that strongly suggests a specific use such as a hotel, restaurant, or office. Do not subdivide the inside of 06 either; compose it as one single image from one single viewpoint. Do not create a collage, multiple views, vertical splits, or paired angles. Compose it with one continuous exterior wall, one ground floor, one continuous ground surface, one building front, and one clearly defined entrance. Clearly depict either a left-right sliding automatic glass entrance or a revolving automatic glass entrance, and do not mix different entrance structures. Use the lower about 30–40% of the 06 area as a continuous outdoor plaza, and the upper about 60–70% as the building front. Place the entrance only once at the lower center, with the entrance width around 20–30% of the entire 06 area as a guide. Use a wide-angle composition where the straight path toward the entrance is clear and the proportions of the building, ground, and entrance look natural. Do not include a close-up display of only the entrance, an overly distant full view where the entrance cannot be identified, multiple entrances, vertically duplicated building fronts, double ground surfaces, complex stairs or terraces, people, cars, or signs. 【Headings】 Use only the following short English labels. 01 FRONT 02 SIDE 03 BACK 04 SPECIAL LOOK 05 FACE 06 BUILDING REFERENCE Place each heading at the upper left of its corresponding area, in a small, unified typeface, without overlapping important parts of the person or building. The specified color may be used subtly for the headings and thin dividing lines. 【Common Design】 Except for 06 BUILDING REFERENCE, the sheet background should be white to very light gray. Ensure sufficient margins so the person and each area do not overlap, and create an organized, refined design that can be shared as a standalone image. The character display should include only the specified four full-body views and three face views, and all should maintain the same person and same outfit as the reference image. Do not include thick frames, excessive decoration, long explanatory text, dialogue, subtitles, logos, brand names, or watermarks.
