Recipe

The examples above were generated with Nano Banana Pro and Seedream 4.5. The recipes below are written for GPT Image and Flux, so treat the settings as a starting point rather than the exact run.

A description in plain sentences. This is the version to start with, and it works on any current image model. Settings below are the ones we used on GPT Image; treat them as a starting point.

The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the highlighted part of the prompt changes.

Prompt

A full length standing figure assembled entirely from torn and scissor cut pieces of patterned fabric and paper, arranged as a collage on a plain white ground with no background scene. Each garment area uses a different textile pattern, edges are frayed or bluntly cut rather than drawn, the pose is simple and frontal. Small soft shadows under the overlapping pieces give physical depth. Handmade and tactile.

Tips

  • 1Say cut and torn edges. Clean vector edges kill it.
  • 2The white ground is part of the style. Do not add a scene.
