Prompt Variations

* Cinematic: A wide-angle, low-key shot of a neon-drenched bounty hunter standing in a rain-slicked alleyway, illuminated by flickering holographic advertisements.
* Luxury Commercial: A high-fashion editorial portrait of a pristine android model wearing haute couture, set against a minimalist, white-void studio background with soft, diffused top-down lighting.
* Documentary: A gritty, handheld-style portrait of a space colonist in a dusty, sun-bleached Martian habitat, emphasizing natural skin textures and sweat.
* Fantasy: An ethereal portrait of a bioluminescent cyber-elf, featuring glowing floral patterns integrated into the skin and intricate, ornate circuit-jewelry.
* Cyberpunk: A chaotic, high-energy close-up of a street hacker in a crowded market, featuring intense lens flare, multiple light sources, and a sense of motion blur.

Negative Prompt

low quality, blurry, pixelated, deformed anatomy, extra limbs, duplicate subjects, watermarks, logos, text overlays, render artifacts, motion glitches, poor composition, bad lighting, cartoonish, oversaturated, flat lighting, plastic skin, doll-like, disconnected limbs, floating objects, out of frame, distorted facial features, low-resolution textures, noisy, grainy, overexposed, underexposed, bad perspective, asymmetrical eyes, weird proportions, ugly, amateur, bad anatomy.

Expert Usage Tips

Adjust the lighting color keywords to shift the mood from cold industrial (cyan/blue) to high-tension (amber/crimson).
Specify the character’s age or profession to force the AI to generate unique skin textures like wrinkles or scars.
Increase the lens focal length (e.g., 200mm) for a tighter, more intimate portrait with a flatter, more professional background compression.
Add specific material textures like “brushed titanium” or “carbon fiber” to dictate the look of the cybernetic implants.
Use “motion blur” or “slight camera shake” keywords if you need the scene to feel more candid and less like a static studio shot.
