The recorded instruction
This is the exact prompt used in this test, including its specific identity and pose instructions. It differs from the general style preset. Adapt those details to your own reference.
Recorded test prompt
Visual style (ink-wash): Expressive Chinese ink-wash character illustration on absorbent rice paper. Fluid black ink brush contours, dry-brush edges and diffuse grey washes with a tiny restrained golden-ochre accent in the blonde hair. The face is recognizable but rendered with economical fine ink lines, not photographic skin. Cream knitted cardigan and simple long flowing skirt. Generous quiet negative space, faint ink grass below, no writing, seals or calligraphy. The entire character and setting use brush-and-ink marks, not a photo with ink overlay. Keep defining facial features and hairstyle recognizable from the reference where visible. User request: Use only the large central adult blonde woman in the reference for identity, with her blue eyes and wavy blonde hair. Ignore all small example cards, arrows, lettering and graphic background. IMPORTANT: Change the reference pose completely; do NOT reproduce the hand-on-cheek or chin-resting pose. Stand in a three-quarter side view and turn her head gently back toward the viewer; one hand loosely carries a closed paper umbrella at her side, the other arm relaxed. Hair moves slightly in a breeze. No hand touches the face. Create one character, a quiet background and no lettering. Single image. Three-quarter body
