Make it yours
Colored Pencil Sketchbook Illustration works as-is. These are the safest ways to change it without losing the look.
Swap the setting
Keep the rest of the prompt and replace the location block. The current setting is “minimal and clean, softly blended pencil shading”.
Swap the light
One lighting change is enough to compare takes. Current light: “soft and warm”.
Change one field
Copy a single group, rewrite it, and generate again so you can see what that field is doing.
| If the result… | Why | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| The result drifts from the preview | Too many fields changed at once. | Reuse Colored Pencil Sketchbook Illustration as-is first, then change one group — subject, light, or setting. |
