Make it yours

Only the parts worth changing are shown. The prompt updates as you go.

Who fills the frame from mid-torso up — one person with a face worth blowing up, since it is drawn oversized and dead center

Clothing

What they wear, rendered in flat blocks of color — one or two garments, since detail gets stripped, e.g. an oversized denim jacket

Animal

The animal tucked beside or below them — one creature with a readable silhouette, drawn in the same raw linework, e.g. a greyhound

Scenery

The background, reduced to 2 or 3 bold silhouettes — name a place rather than a view, e.g. pine ridge or harbor cranes

Your prompt

Raw sketchy graphic portrait poster of wearing , half-body and large in frame, accompanied closely by , with a minimal background. Render in a rough expressive illustrated style with broken black ink contours, loose sketch lines, scratchy hatching, irregular stroke weight, imperfect line edges, fast gestural mark-making, simplified anatomy, flat cel-like shadow blocks, and reduced detail. Use a restrained palette with one dominant warm field, one cool counter-field, dark inked shadows, and a few pale highlight accents. Keep the face oversized and central, crop around mid-torso, and place the animal in the lower foreground or tucked beside the subject, drawn with the same simplified raw linework. Reduce the scenery into only 2 or 3 bold silhouette shapes behind the subject, with no detailed environment rendering. Add a narrow warm off-white poster border and very light print texture. Strong attitude, graphic poster energy, intentionally imperfect strokes, raw and sketchy finish, ar 4:5

When to use it

Use when you want a portrait poster of someone with their pet or spirit animal, drawn rough rather than rendered.

How to get the best result

  • Pick a person with a face worth enlarging; it is drawn oversized and dead center, and the crop stops at mid-torso.
  • Choose one animal with a readable outline; it is drawn in the same linework, low in the foreground or beside them.
  • Name a place with big shapes for the scenery, a pine ridge or harbor cranes; it is cut to two or three silhouettes.

Watch-outs

  • The trailing 'ar 4:5' does not set the output size on GPT Image 2; pick a portrait ratio in the generator.
  • The palette is fixed to one warm field, one cool counter-field and dark ink; a colors value naming many hues fights it.
