What worked
In post-revision result_1.png, maintained the black markings on the right eye and forehead based on the photo, the white stripe down the center of the nose, large sections of tan, white, and black fur, brown eyes, and both ears. Confirmed half-closed eyes, a closed mouth with an asymmetric half-smile, and no visible tongue. Placed the head and shoulders large in a single square, using a solid red background with thick ink areas and print texture. No text, numbers, logos, borders, accessories, extra eyes, or limbs.
What did not work
None after revision. Both tries before revision resulted in an open mouth with the tongue sticking out instead of a half-smile. Left as-is in before_result_1.png and before_result_2.png.
How to improve
When attaching comparison images, explicitly state to reference only the photo panel and ignore existing illustrations. For a half-smile, explicitly specify "half-closed eyelids, a closed mouth with one corner raised, and no visible tongue." Actual re-testing with a revised version incorporating both instructions confirmed expression improvement.

Full prompt 2,431 characters
Create one finished vintage silkscreen pet character illustration now. Return only one image, never a comparison or collage. Use Output size 1080x1080 pixels, 1:1 square post. Keep all text fully readable.; default square 1:1.
Photo instruction: 【Photo】. Use the attached pet photo as the identity reference. Preserve species, head and ear silhouette, eye color, fur colors and especially the exact left/right positions and boundaries of distinctive markings. Simplify fur into bold carved flat ink shapes without recoloring or inventing patches. If several pets appear, use the largest foreground pet only. PHOTO RULE: when no photo is attached, invent one original cream-and-chocolate upright-eared mixed-breed dog with an asymmetric eye patch; finish without asking for a photo.
Background color: 【Background color】. Empty means tomato red. Use a single full-bleed solid color, separate from the pet's unchanged fur colors.
Expression: 【Expression】. Empty means a smug half-closed gaze and crooked grin. Exaggerate eyes and mouth for warm visual humor while preserving the pet's identity and natural facial structure. Never add extra eyes, teeth rows or limbs.
If the attachment is a before/after comparison, use only the photographic panel as the identity reference and ignore the illustrated panel. Copy neither panel's expression: apply the requested expression instead. For a smug half-smile, use half-closed eyelids, a closed mouth with one corner raised, and no visible tongue. Preserve the photographic panel's original fur palette; do not adopt the illustrated panel's ink colors.
Use a large head-and-shoulders composition filling the frame, keeping both ears readable. Build broad graphic ink planes, confident cut contours and restrained uneven ink grain; no gradients, glossy 3D or photorealistic fur. Keep the same silkscreen medium for every expression. No accessories unless already essential to the subject, and remove all branding. Original animal character only; no existing characters, real brands, logos, signatures, watermarks, text, letters or numbers. No border, paper mockup or scene around the artwork.

[Final output format]

How to use it · FAQ

Make a square pet character for a profile or pet introduction. Broad carved ink planes and restrained print grain replace individual hairs. The result is one illustration with a solid background and no text. There are 0 required fields.

In Photo, describe the attached file, for example Haru’s front-facing photo. Attach the actual image together with the copied prompt in one message; writing in the field does not upload a file. Without a photo, the prompt invents a cream-and-chocolate dog. Background color changes only the backdrop, never the fur. Expression changes the eyes and mouth while keeping the animal recognizable. Empty background and expression use tomato red and a smug half-smile. The default aspect ratio is 1:1.

Use a clear, nearly frontal photo with both ears visible. With several pets, only the largest foreground animal is used. Check the side of each eye patch, the white nose blaze and the ear silhouette against the photo. Fine hairs are simplified into ink colors. If a patch moves, specify its exact position and regenerate. The dog and cat results were separately generated referencing the fictional photographs on the left. The reference files also contained earlier concept artwork, so this does not establish reproducibility from a standalone user photo. The rabbit is an independent pure-result example, distinct from the cover. All example pets are named Haru.

Changing color does not change the silkscreen medium. This produces digital artwork, not separated printing plates or a cutting template. Use photos you have permission to use. Check the external image tool’s pricing and terms there.
