Prompt
A highly detailed isometric grand-strategy video game screenshot in the style of a modern Civilization VII city view, showing a dense futuristic coastal island metropolis inspired by {argument name="location" default="Tokyo"} in {argument name="year" default="2020 CE"}. The camera looks down from a high oblique angle over a compact urban island surrounded by vivid turquoise-blue ocean with sun-glitter reflections. The city is extremely dense, packed wall-to-wall with hundreds of modern high-rise towers, apartment blocks, office buildings, neon billboards, multilane roads, rail lines, bridges, and waterfront piers. In the center are 3 standout landmark structures: a red lattice communications tower resembling Tokyo Tower, a large traditional Japanese temple complex with green roofs, and a 5-tier pagoda. Near the left shoreline stands 1 monumental statue on a rocky promontory resembling a giant seated or standing Buddha. Near the upper center sits 1 circular stadium or domed arena embedded among skyscrapers. The harbor contains exactly 10 visible boats and ships of mixed sizes, including ferries, yachts, and small passenger vessels, plus crowded marina docks along the right and lower shorelines. Blend traditional Japanese architecture with hyper-dense contemporary urbanism, cherry blossom trees scattered through streets and parks, intricate road loops, tiny vehicles, and layered waterfront infrastructure. The island shoreline should feel irregular, rocky, and heavily developed, with the sea transitioning from deep sapphire to clear tropical cyan near the coast.
Render it as a polished strategy-game UI screenshot rather than a pure illustration. Add a full game HUD overlay with ornate bronze-and-navy fantasy-tech interface styling. Along the top bar, show multiple resource counters and turn information; include the text {argument name="turn text" default="Turn: 103 | 2020 CE"} and a time display. On the upper right, show 7 hanging civilization banners with leader portraits or emblems. On the left side, show a quest/journal panel titled {argument name="left panel title" default="Journal"} containing 3 task sections: "The Cross and the Crescent", "Legacy Path: Silk Roads", and "Buildings: Wonders", each with short objective lines beneath. In the lower left, include 1 minimap framed in ornate UI. In the lower right, include 1 large circular city-management dial and a prominent button labeled {argument name="button text" default="GROW TOWN"}, plus 3 smaller circular action buttons nearby. The overall image should feel like an authentic in-game screenshot: razor-sharp, information-rich, colorful, immersive, and believable, with realistic urban density, accurate transportation details, and a luxurious next-generation 4X strategy aesthetic.Prompt breakdown

Four-Panel Bank World Storyboard
Goal: Create a polished 2x2 storyboard-style image sheet for a short video scene about the despair of a zero bank balance (scene theme), set in a modern blue-themed bank world. Canvas: Square 1:1 composition, four equal panels separated by clean white gutters, bright cinematic 3D-rendered realism with slightly idealized commercial lighting, high detail, sharp focus, saturated blue bank branding, no captions or speech bubbles. Layout: Use exactly 4 panels in a grid. 1. Top-left panel: Interior ATM area with exactly 3 visible ATM machines in a row, each built into gray wall bays with bold blue vertical dividers. The nearest ATM screen prominently shows a large red “0” on a pale cyan screen, implying an empty balance. Include tiled floor, ceiling lights, and a small potted plant in the background. 2. Top-right panel: Bank service counter with exactly 1 female bank clerk seated behind a beige stone counter. She wears a navy suit, white shirt, blue striped scarf or tie, and a small gold nameplate. Her face is intentionally featureless/softly blurred for anonymity. Include exactly 1 computer monitor, 1 keyboard, 1 blue document tray, and 1 potted plant on or near the counter. Behind her are glass office partitions, blue chairs, certificates on the wall, and warm office lighting. 3. Bottom-left panel: Exterior of a contemporary city bank branch on a sunny street corner. Show a blue horizontal sign band above glass doors, gray stone facade, street crosswalk markings, sidewalk bollards, leafy trees, and black street lamps. The entrance should feel clean, corporate, and Japanese urban but without readable signage. 4. Bottom-right panel: Fantasy bank vault interior with an oversized round open vault door in bronze and steel. Inside the vault are stacks of cash and gold, warm golden lighting, shelves, and treasure props. Include exactly 3 small cute animal mascots standing near the vault entrance, wearing colorful tiny outfits, plus visible piles of bundled banknotes, coins, a chest, and a money bag. Visual style: High-end 3D illustration, cinematic render, bank commercial aesthetic mixed with whimsical storybook detail in the vault panel, realistic materials, glossy glass, polished stone, metallic vault surfaces, warm highlights, deep blue brand accents. Subject details: The bank’s dominant brand color is royal blue (brand color). The ATM screen should display 0 (balance number) in red. The bank clerk outfit should be navy suit with blue striped scarf (clerk outfit). The vault should contain bundled cash, coins, treasure chest, and money bag (vault contents). Constraints: No extra panels, no visible watermarks, no logos, no readable text except the red balance number on the ATM screen, keep the four-panel sheet coherent as one bank-themed storyboard, maintain clean white borders between panels.37:Tb9

Hidden Duck in Chibi Venice
A highly detailed isometric miniature diorama of Venice in a whimsical chibi style, designed as a busy hidden-character puzzle scene. The setting is a sunlit Venetian canal district packed with tiny cute travelers and locals, viewed from a slightly elevated angle so the canal, bridges, piazza, storefronts, and upper facades are all visible at once. Warm terracotta buildings with weathered stucco walls, flower boxes, striped awnings, shuttered windows, balconies, rooftop chimneys, and ivy frame both sides of a narrow turquoise canal. In the distance, elegant Venetian architecture includes a large arched bridge, domes, towers, and a clock tower, creating depth and a postcard-like skyline. The streets and canal are extremely crowded with exactly over 150 chibi characters, each with oversized heads, small bodies, glossy eyes, varied skin tones, and distinct outfits, hairstyles, hats, and accessories, posed walking, chatting, shopping, sitting, rowing, or sightseeing. Many wear straw boater hats, striped shirts, dresses, vests, jackets, and travel clothes in cheerful colors. Several gondolas move through the canal, each carrying tiny passengers, with gondoliers in classic Venetian striped attire. Include exactly 3 stone pedestrian bridges crossing the canal, multiple gondolas, many canal posts, ornate green street lamps, café tables, market stands, pigeons on the pavement, and souvenir displays. Add a playful scavenger-hunt mood with a small hanging sign in the upper right that reads Find the duck! (headline text) and shows a cute yellow rubber duck icon. Hide exactly 2 small yellow ducks in the scene, subtly placed among the crowd and canal area so viewers can search for them. Visible shop and street signs should include HOTEL CA' DEL SORRISO on the left building, GELATO on a striped awning storefront, TRATTORIA alla Gondola on the right, SERVIZIO GONDOLE on a green canal sign near the center foreground, VENEZIA MASK on a souvenir stall, and CARNEVALE DI VENEZIA on a poster display at the lower right. Include carnival masks for sale, café seating, a market umbrella, and tiny decorative details everywhere. Render it as ultra-detailed, polished 3D storybook art with toy-like textures, soft global illumination, vibrant Mediterranean colors, crisp focus, and a charming travel-poster atmosphere centered on Venice (city), featuring a hidden mascot search for yellow duck (hidden object), in the playful world of Ruhia (series name).39

FAQ
- Why exactly ten boats in the harbor?
- The prompt specifies ten mixed ferries, yachts, and passenger vessels to balance visible maritime activity without overcrowding the turquoise water while keeping the focus on the island's extreme building density.
- What makes the UI feel like an authentic Civ VII screenshot?
- Ornate bronze-and-navy framing, precise top-bar text "Turn: 103 | 2020 CE", seven hanging banners, the exact Journal tasks, minimap, and prominent GROW TOWN button together create a layered, information-dense strategy-game interface rather than a plain illustration.
