Style prompt

The delicate shojo-anime treatment centers large luminous eyes, fine lashes, flowing curved linework, and soft pastel modeling. Rose, peach, coral, cream, and a small gold glint build a warm light palette against quiet ivory negative space. Crisp dark accents outline only the most expressive details; broad transitions in hairlike strands and skinlike planes remain blended and airy. The crop is close, with the brightest and sharpest detail around the focal gaze and softer edges toward the perimeter. Short outward curves and fine interior strokes keep the composition lively without strong action. Fabric areas are rendered in deeper neutral tones, allowing a vivid bowlike accent to hold the lower part of the frame. Subtle paper grain prevents the smooth gradients from feeling plastic. The overall impression is tender, polished, and gently romantic.

Full example prompt

A square close anime illustration centers the face and upper shoulders of a young woman against a nearly plain warm ivory background. Her short, softly wavy hair is a rose-pink color with peach and cream highlights sweeping across the upper left. Loose locks turn outward at the cheeks and nape, and fine curved strands cross the forehead. The face is pale, rounded, and delicately pointed at the chin. Very large pink-violet eyes carry layered iris rings, bright white reflections, and fine upper lashes. Thin brows and a small nose keep the features light. Her lips part slightly, creating a surprised or thoughtful expression as she looks a little to the left of the viewer. Small gold earrings glint at the ears. She wears a dark brown school-style jacket over a high white collar; a large bright pink bow fills the lower center, partly cut by the bottom edge. The framing crops the top of the hair and the jacket below the chest, holding attention on the eyes and flowing hair. Color is handled in smooth broad areas with subtle pencil-like grain. Rose, coral, pale gold, and soft cream move through the hair, while the skin carries restrained peach shadows around the neck and nose. Clean dark lines sharpen the eyes, lashes, strands, and garment edges but do not enclose every soft transition. There is no setting, prop, or readable text. The composition is gentle and airy, with most detail gathered around the face and hair. Its appeal rests on expressive gaze, luminous pastel color, and a balance of crisp linework and blended shading.
