The prompt
Prompt
A children's book illustration of a small child in a homemade cardboard space helmet sitting inside a rocket built from a stacked cardboard box with a cone of taped paper on top, in the corner of a bedroom at night, a bedside lamp casting a warm cone of light while the rest of the room falls into soft blue shadow, hand-drawn paper constellations taped to the wall behind, a toy dog buckled into the passenger seat wearing a scarf, crayon dials drawn on the inside of the box, soft gouache texture with warm and cool colour contrast, no text, no lettersHow to use this prompt
- 1
Open the generator that matches the model and version above, and start a new image rather than editing an existing one.
- 2
Set the output to 3:2. That is the only output setting recorded for this entry, and it is what produced the 768 × 516 image on this page.
- 3
Paste the prompt exactly as written. Changing the wording changes the image, so copy it before you edit.
- 4
Generate, then change one thing at a time. The result will not be pixel-identical to the image on this page, because no seed is recorded for it.
Only an aspect ratio is recorded for this entry. GPT Image and DALL·E do not expose a sampler, step count, or CFG value in the interface this was tested in, so there are no numbers to match — the prompt text and the aspect ratio are the whole instruction. Resize by describing the framing in words rather than reaching for a parameter.
