Prompt

1,697 charactersOpen Astorie studio ↗
Use the provided source image as the sole identity reference. Preserve the subject’s facial features, likeness, and recognizability with high fidelity.
Recompose the image into a tight close-up or upper-body editorial crop, ensuring the face dominates the frame. Disregard the original framing entirely.
Transform the portrait into a high-fashion gestural ink illustration. The visual style must be driven by bold, expressive black brushwork rather than fine or delicate sketch lines.
Apply the following stylistic elements:
Very thick, heavy black brush strokes as the primary structure
Broad dry-brush sweeps with visible texture
Large, asymmetrical black ink masses shaping the composition
Long, loose, calligraphic strokes for dynamic flow
Broken and incomplete contours
Scratchy, energetic secondary linework for detail accents
Strong black-on-ivory contrast
Smooth, minimal, monochrome skin rendering
Ensure the thick brush strokes dominate the image. Avoid clean, polished, or softly illustrated aesthetics. The result should feel raw, expressive, and painterly—like it was created with a heavily loaded brush and finished with sharp, confident pen marks.
Maintain a stylish, high-fashion editorial tone.
Include one hero accessory: {argument name="accessory" default="oversized translucent tinted sunglasses"}. The accent color {argument name="accent color" default="[ACCENT_COLOR]"} must be primarily expressed within this accessory, especially as a bold luminous tint in the lenses.
Allow only minimal, subtle traces of the same accent color elsewhere in the composition.
Keep the background clean, minimal, and unobtrusive.
Do not include any text, typography, or poster-style elements.

Profile / Avatar - Early 2000s Internet Cafe Webcam Couple

Fav PromptNano Banana Pro
A candid couple photo of the Woman's Look and Man's Look in the Setting, engaged in the Activity. Render it as the Camera Type, with soft focus, smeared facial detail, color noise, dim uneven indoor light and low-resolution compression. Use awkward webcam framing from a desk-level angle, with a slight tilt and casually cropped shoulders or arms. Include the Era Props naturally in the booth. The couple should look genuinely close and relaxed, with real skin, messy everyday hair and no heavy retouching. Use Face Reference for the matching faces when applicable. Make it feel like an unedited early-2000s personal photo from an old Facebook album or MSN chat, not a modern image with a retro filter. No date stamp, text, watermark, modern electronics or current fashion. Output in the Format.

Use these details:
Woman's Look: "{argument name="woman's look" default="Young woman in her early 20s with straight black hair, a casual graphic T-shirt and a loose zip hoodie"}"
Man's Look: "{argument name="man's look" default="Young man in his early 20s with a thin mustache, tousled hair and a worn casual sweatshirt"}"
Setting: "{argument name="setting" default="A cramped internet cafe booth with a laminate desk, worn carpet, beige walls and bulky CRT monitors"}"
Activity: "{argument name="activity" default="Leaning close together and looking into the webcam during an online chat"}"
Camera Type: "{argument name="camera type" default="Low-resolution built-in webcam capture from a chunky desktop computer"}"
Era Props: [{argument name="era props" default="Wired earphones, A burned CD in a paper sleeve, A chunky desktop keyboard"}]
Face Reference: "{argument name="face reference" default="Use attached photos for the matching person's face when provided; if none are attached, invent both faces"}"
Format: "{argument name="format" default="4:3 landscape"}"
