Ready-to-use prompt

English

Transform the attached photo into a richly textured steampunk inventor digital illustration. Combine functional brass gears, copper pipes, leather harnesses, goggles, gauges, an industrial coat, engraved metal, and sepia, oxidized teal, and burgundy. Use warm furnace light through cool steam for workshop energy. Keep her recognizable by face shape, long black hair, and floral color cues, but digitally repaint her entire figure, including face, eyes, and skin, in this medium; no photographic skin or pasted-on realistic face. Keep goggles above the eyes. Stand her at a workbench, one hand holding a small wrench, the other on a gauge, with a focused closed-mouth expression. Output vertical 2:3 with no text, logos, or watermark.

DOC.01What defines this style

Brass mechanisms, tailored leather, and steam make machinery feel personal.

Steampunk visual design imagines nineteenth-century industrial technology developing into elaborate personal machinery. Believable gears, gauges, brass, leather, and steam matter more than random ornament, giving inventors, adventurers, and alternate-history campaigns a coherent material world.

Use it for

Inventor character portrait
Alternate-history campaign
Adventure game concept

Practical notes

In ChatGPT or Gemini, assign one pipe to one gauge so the machinery appears connected.
Keep goggles above the brow during the identity pass, then add lens reflections afterward.
