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 Hajime Sorayama + Loish (+ James White), where Sorayama's sleek, chrome futurism should define the image and its sculptural lines, Loish's soft expression and motion flow should enhance the expressive element. James White’s neon grid and synth glow should add vaporwave ambiance. The fusion should manifest as a dreamy, electrified scene with elegance, motion, and radiant contrast.

Model-neutral
The same look with artist names and copyrighted references removed — for models that refuse them.
Sleek, chrome futurism defines the image's sculptural lines, soft expressive contours and motion flow enhance the organic element, and neon linework and synth glow add vaporwave ambiance. The fusion should manifest as a dreamy, electrified scene with elegance, motion, and radiant contrast.

Effect only
The recipe removed — no artists, no wild card, no movements. Only what the style does to a surface.
Mirror-bright chrome wraps precisely modelled, sculptural contours, with hard specular streaks cutting through smooth tonal gradients. Delicate tonal transitions remain soft and warmly expressive, while long, fluid curves carry the gaze through the composition. Luminous grid lines recede beneath saturated electric haze, and radiant pink, violet, and cyan light blooms against deep shadow for dreamy, elegant contrast.

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.
