“Rock Day” prompt
Create an anime-style illustration that captures the playful rock aesthetic of a woman with striking long hair dyed a vibrant gold.
The female character's hair is styled in flowing waves and adorned with various accessories, such as a cross and a skull. A black leather jacket covered in gold and silver patches and pins blends with the dark tones of the character's clothing. On the visible skin, an array of colorful tattoos with playful designs of skulls and motorcycles contribute to the character's atmosphere. The background is a factory-like shop interior, and on a desk in front of you are a number of whiskey bottles and shot glasses and coins. The overall scene captures the style of a manga, while remaining hyper-realistic, highlighting the vibrant colors and dynamic lines to highlight the character's edgy and playful personality.
