An anime / illustration prompt with a clear style reference.
Prompt
Highly stylized {argument name="style" default="monochrome fashion illustration"}, expressive {argument name="technique" default="black-and-white ink portrait style"}, ultra-clean grayscale palette with soft tonal shading and sharp dark accents, elegant feminine facial construction, elongated proportions, minimalistic luxury editorial aesthetic. Use flowing organic contour lines mixed with geometric construction lines crossing the face naturally. Combine loose gestural strokes with precise ink detailing around the eyes, eyebrows, lips, and hair strands. Hair rendered with sweeping fluid brush lines and layered ink curves, creating dynamic movement and asymmetrical framing. Skin shading uses smooth cel-shaded grayscale planes with subtle gradient transitions, while maintaining a hand-drawn ink illustration appearance. Thin sketch lines remain visible as part of the composition. Eyes highly detailed and luminous with crisp eyelashes and reflective highlights. Lips softly sculpted with semi-realistic shading and delicate line texture. Use selective contrast: bold black strokes around facial features balanced against large clean white negative spaces. Overall composition resembles a fusion of modern fashion sketch, manga-inspired editorial art, and minimalist ink wash illustration. {argument name="background" default="Background kept plain light gray or off-white"} with uncluttered negative space. High contrast, elegant, refined, cinematic, expressive line-art aesthetic.
It works because it front-loads the constraints the model usually guesses at: a defined colour grade, so re-running it — or handing it to a teammate — lands in the same place instead of drifting. Keep those clauses and rewrite the subject to make it your own.
