The prompt behind this image
Copy the exact prompt behind Retro Hong Kong Gangster Poster, or open it in the studio and make it yours.
Create a vertical retro Hong Kong–Macau triad boss style character poster for {argument name="character name" default="Kyrie Cheung"}. Use a gritty cinematic 1970s–1990s crime archive aesthetic with aged paper texture, scratches, dust, worn corners, dark sepia and deep red tones, and faded gold typography. Canvas is a 2:3 portrait poster. The right half shows one young East Asian man in side profile facing left, standing against a dark red weathered wall under dramatic low-key lighting; he has short messy black hair, a calm intimidating posture, a white wrinkled button-up shirt with sleeves rolled to the forearms, black high-waisted trousers, black belt, one hand in pocket, and a wristwatch. Keep the face partially obscured or shadowed for anonymity. The top background includes traditional Chinese roof eaves with circular decorative tiles, dimly lit and distressed. The left half is a bold vintage title layout: small top label reads “GOLDEN ERA ICON” inside a thin rectangular frame with exactly 1 dragon medallion icon and exactly 2 small star icons, then huge condensed block serif text stacked in two lines reading {argument name="main title" default="KYRIE CHEUNG"}. Beneath the title add a thin divider with exactly 1 centered star, then the decade label {argument name="era label" default="2020s"}. Below that add the quote {argument name="quote text" default="“世人皆 Gay, 我独Straight”"} in faded gold, mixing Chinese and English exactly as written. Add exactly 1 red circular archive stamp near the lower left reading “ARCHIVE / CLASSIFIED / UNDERWORLD”. At the bottom left add the file label {argument name="file number" default="FILE No.01"} with thin horizontal rules and exactly 3 tiny decorative stars/leaves underneath. Use tall compressed vintage poster typography, distressed ink, uneven print registration, grain, vignette, and a thin worn border around the poster. No modern clean design, no extra people, no additional text beyond the specified poster elements.
