On 4 models
The same prompt and the same subject, rendered by different image models — so the differences are the model, not the prompt.
The prompt
Original
In style of Hikari Shimoda + Johannes Vermeer, where Shimoda’s pastel surrealism and dreamy light should evoke quiet modern fantasy, and Vermeer’s classical Dutch portrait realism should instill timeless grace and soft chiaroscuro. The fusion should manifest as poetic neoclassical surrealism

Model-neutral
The same look with artist names and copyrighted references removed — for models that refuse them.

Effect only
The recipe removed — no artists, no wild card, no movements. Only what the style does to a surface.
Soft light caresses surfaces with gentle chiaroscuro, shadows translucent and warm. Pastel pigments glow opalescently, layered in smooth, refined strokes. Edges soften into luminous halos, never hard. Forms remain precisely proportioned, yet hover in serene stillness, defying gravity. Transitions between light and dark are gradual, and color drifts from muted earth tones to candy pastels, evoking a quiet, timeless wonder.

Using it
- Paste the prompt, then add your subject after it — for example …, a lighthouse on a cliff at dusk.
- The original names artists. Some hosted models refuse that or quietly render around it — on those, use the model-neutral version, which describes the same handling without the names.
- The effect-only version drops the recipe altogether and describes only what the style does to a surface. Use it to mix this look into another style, or when you want nothing traceable to a source.
- Every sample here was rendered against the same short subject — Quiet streets whisper / Her footsteps echo softly / Sunlight paints her path — so it shows the style, not a lucky subject.
