VectorPastel
An illustration AI art style prompt drawing on Shin-Hanga and Cartoon Modern. Copy the prompt below into any text-to-image model, then add your own subject at the end. The prompt only describes the look.
The blend
The prompt combines 2 ingredients and gives each one a job:
- Craig McCracken — McCracken's clean vector lineart and flat color fills amplify playful joy.
- Hiroshi Yoshida — Yoshida's layered color harmonies and geometric precision heighten vibrant energy.
The fusion manifests as saturated pastels with clean lineart and geometric tech patterns, preserving original subjects and settings.
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
Craig McCracken + Hiroshi Yoshida, where McCracken's clean vector lineart and flat color fills amplify playful joy, and Yoshida's layered color harmonies and geometric precision heighten vibrant energy.

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.
Crisp, uniform contours enclose flat, saturated pastel fills, while layered hues build bright, harmonious colour relationships without muddy transitions. Forms remain clean and precisely structured, with geometric tech patterns adding rhythmic energy across surfaces. Edges stay sharp, values remain clearly separated, and the original subjects and settings retain their recognizable shapes, proportions and spatial arrangement.

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.
