The same prompt and the same subject, rendered by different image models — so the differences are the model, not the prompt.
The prompt
Original
Francis Bacon + H.R. Giger + Ink Wash fusion: Bacon's distorted figurative forms and psychological intensity; Giger's biomechanical detailing and textural complexity; traditional Eastern ink wash fluidity and gradient control. Features emotionally charged distortions of organic forms, intricate mechanical-organic hybrid texturing, and flowing gradients from deep black to luminous transparency. The style applies expressionist distortion to create emotional charge, biomechanical detailing to add intricate surface complexity, and ink wash techniques for atmosphere and depth, while maintaining the integrity of original subjects and scene composition. This creates an unsettling organic-mechanical hybrid aesthetic—enhancing subjects through psychological and textural depth while preserving the integrity of originally described elements.

Effect only
The recipe removed — no artists, no wild card, no movements. Only what the style does to a surface.
Distorted organic forms warp into uncanny silhouettes, their surfaces layered with intricate mechanical-organic textures that alternate between soft fleshiness and hard machined grooving. Pigment washes carry values from deep black to luminous transparency, creating atmospheric depth. Transitions blur in wet pools or snap into precise, engineered edges, preserving the original subject and composition while rendering it as a hybrid of living matter and engineered structure.

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.
