Gestural Ink Fashion Illustration
ASPECT_RATIO: [3:4 (aspect ratio)] SOURCE_IMAGE: [uploaded photo (reference)] ACCENT_COLOR: [single vivid highlight color (accent color)] Use the uploaded photo as the base image and the only identity source. Keep the person exactly the same and clearly recognizable. Ignore the original framing and always recompose into a tight close-up or upper-body editorial crop, with the face dominating the frame. Transform the image into a gestural editorial ink fashion illustration. The style must be built from bold black brushwork, not delicate sketch lines. Use: very thick black brush strokes broad dry-brush sweeps large asymmetrical black ink masses long loose calligraphic lines broken contours scratchy secondary linework strong black-on-ivory contrast smooth monochrome skin The thick strokes must be clearly dominant. Do not render the portrait mainly with thin contour lines. Do not make it neat, polished, or softly illustrated. The image should feel painted with a loaded brush and finished with sharp expressive pen marks. Keep the portrait stylish and high-fashion. Use one hero accessory, preferably oversized translucent tinted sunglasses. The accent color [ACCENT_COLOR] must live mainly inside that accessory, especially in the lenses, as a bold luminous tint. Only tiny supporting traces of the same color may appear elsewhere.

Monochrome Woodblock Character Postcard
Using the provided reference image as the character base, transform it into a nostalgic monochrome Japanese woodblock-print illustration on textured cream paper. Change the composition from vertical portrait to a wide horizontal postcard layout, keeping the same cute sea-themed girl and outfit concept but redrawing her smaller in the center, facing forward, with one hand raised in a friendly wave. Convert the blue-and-cream print into black ink linework only, with rough carved edges, uneven stamped texture, visible paper grain, and hand-printed imperfections. Layout: Add a thick hand-carved rectangular border around the entire image. Fill the surrounding space with playful decorative motifs while keeping the center character readable. Added motifs: Include exactly 3 jellyfish around the character, 4 ribbon bows placed near the four corners, 5 musical notes, 2 hearts, multiple bubbles, wavy water lines near the bottom, and scattered stars/sparkles in a cute handmade style. Style: Make it look like an old children’s picture-book woodcut or linocut print, simple black ink on off-white paper, charming, slightly rough, nostalgic, with no color fills other than black ink. Avoid realistic shading, gradients, or modern digital polish. Optional customization: Use black (ink color) ink on cream (paper color) paper, with the character in a one-hand waving pose (pose) and a nostalgic Japanese woodblock print (print style) finish.38
