Full sentences. Describe the scene, then the medium, then the flaws you want kept in.

The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the prompt updates.

Prompt

A city panorama drawn entirely in fine uniform blue pen on white paper: dense towers, construction cranes, an elevated road and thousands of small windows, all described with thin even line and no tone or fill anywhere. Obsessive detail at consistent line weight, so the skyline reads as a pale blue haze from a distance. A few faint pencil guide lines left visible at the edges.

Tips

  • 1One pen, one colour, one line weight. The restraint is the style.
  • 2Ask for guide lines left visible. It reads as a drawing rather than a print.
  • 3Cranes and overpasses give the skyline something to hang detail on.
