## Prompt

```text
Two-dimensional alternative character illustration of {character}, occupying approximately seventy-five percent of the frame in {pose}, with {hair} and [EXPRESSION]. Oversized rounded cranium, a short flattened lower face, a narrow jaw, a long thin neck, slightly oversized ears, huge pale oval eyes with tiny off-center pupils, extremely thick horizontal black eyebrows, heavy black upper eyelids, muted mauve under-eye rings, a tiny broad triangular nose, and a wide asymmetrical grin showing individually drawn irregular rectangular teeth, one clearly missing upper tooth, one chipped tooth and deep black gaps. Dress the character in {clothing}, simplified into broad graphic shapes with chunky seams, minimal folds and small hand-drawn accessories. Confident black ink contours using thick outer silhouettes, medium-weight facial lines, thin angular hair strands and only a few short scratch marks around the eyes, hair and clothing seams; use flat opaque color fields, one hard-edged cel-shadow shape per form, sparse pencil hatching, subtle ink wobble, slight color misregistration and restrained worn-paper texture. Controlled [COLORS] palette, keeping every color clearly separated and moderately saturated. Place the character against [BACKGROUND], reduced to large flat shapes, a few loosely drawn environmental details and oversized rough hand-painted lettering reading “[TEXT]”; use an off-center waist-up composition, a slight camera tilt, cropped background typography, loose poster margins and lightly weathered printed edges. 4:5 AR.
