Long upright ears, the inside a pale pink outlined by its own line; a big rounded head; a small teardrop-shaped muzzle with a pink nose and three whiskers on each side; one large round dark-brown eye seen at three quarters, with a small round white catchlight inside; a soft cheek with a touch of pink; a round white cotton tail. This block is the character's IDENTITY: to draw the next page of the book, copy the whole block without changing a word and change only the action field and the scene field - it is the literal repetition of this description that brings the same character back page after page\",\n  \"wardrobe\": \"a mustard-yellow cloth scarf tied at the neck, the knot to one side and two ends falling over the chest. No other clothing, no accessories and no patterns\",\n  \"action\": \"the rabbit is crossing the little bridge, walking to the right at three quarters, its right front paw raised and holding a lit glass lantern by the handle, dark frame and a yellow flame inside; the other front paw hangs loose beside the body and one hind paw is in the air, mid-step\",\n  \"scene\": \"a small arched wooden bridge, with a railing of short posts, crosses a shallow stream of rounded stones with a little waterfall beneath it. On both banks, large ferns with cut-out fronds and THREE red mushrooms with white spots - two on the left, a bigger one in front and a smaller one behind, and one on the right. TWO fireflies with transparent wings and glowing bodies float in the air, one upper left and one middle right. Behind, two thick tree trunks frame the picture at the sides, a stand of dark pines far off, and the low sun on the horizon, right of centre, with a golden sky between the trunks. Late afternoon\",\n  \"composition\": \"a vertical page in 3:4 proportion, split into two parts that never mix. The ILLUSTRATION takes the top 70% of the frame. The bottom 30% is the TEXT BAND: smooth grass, light and even in colour, with nothing inside it - no leaf, no stone, no mushroom, no root, no shadow, no part of the stream - because that is where the story text will be typed later, outside the generator. The rabbit takes about 34% of the height of the frame, the tips of its ears at around 11% and its paws on the bridge at around 45%, and it sits entirely above the band. The bridge crosses the frame from side to side, a little below the middle\",\n  \"camera\": \"a straight frontal view, at the height of the rabbit's chest, with no tilt and no forced perspective; everything in focus, from the foreground to the far trees, like a printed page in a book\",\n  \"lighting\": \"warm golden light from the low sun, coming from the back right and crossing the trunks in soft beams; the lantern flame lights a small halo around the rabbit's paw and chest; soft shadows with no hard contrast; the bottom band takes even light, with no shadow cast on it\",\n  \"color_palette\": \"forest greens and the light green of the grass, warm browns for the wood and the trunks, gold and amber for the sky and the lantern, the mustard yellow of the scarf and the red of the mushrooms as the only strong notes of colour; medium saturation, no fluorescent colour\",\n  \"style\": \"classic children's book illustration, watercolour finished with coloured pencil: a light, slightly uneven outline, colour laid in transparent layers, the paper texture visible across the whole picture. No 3D rendering, no digital gloss, no flat vector and no photorealism\",\n  \"materials\": \"fine-grain watercolour paper, the grain showing inside the light areas and above all in the bottom band\",\n  \"details\": \"what this prompt exists to deliver is two measurable things, and both have to survive: (1) the bottom band, exactly the bottom 30% of the height, stays COMPLETELY empty - what separates the illustration from the band is the line of the grass, and nothing crosses it; (2) the character comes back IDENTICAL on the next page, and what guarantees that is the subject field copied unchanged, not the generator's memory. Preserve as well the counts in the scene: three mushrooms, two fireflies, two trunks framing the sides\",\n  \"negative_prompt\": \"text, letters, numbers, a written word, a caption, a title, a speech bubble, an artist's signature, a frame, a decorative border, a page number, logos, real brands, likeness to a character from a real franchise, anything inside the bottom band, a leaf or a stone or a mushroom in the bottom band, a shadow cast into the bottom band, a bottom band textured with drawing, 3D rendering, digital gloss, photorealism, human eyes, deformed hands, extra limbs, AI artefacts, watermark\"\n}","_como_usar":"The children's book page does not get stuck on the drawing: it gets stuck on the character, who changes face on every new page. Here he is described in enough detail to come back identical on the next generation, and the bottom band is born EMPTY, saved for the story text to be typed in later. It works in ChatGPT, Gemini and NanoBanana.\n\n1. Rewrite subject with YOUR character and keep that block: it is the identity you paste onto every page.\n2. On each new page change only action and scene. Touching subject is what changes the character's face.\n3. Do not loosen the bottom 30%: that is where the text goes, and the generator fills it with leaves and stones if you let it.\n4. Keep the whole negative_prompt. A children's book is the drawer where AI invents letters the most.\n5. Check the counts in the image that comes back - three mushrooms, two fireflies. That is the cheap test that it read the scene.\n\nTip: generate the same scene at another time of day. The light changes, the character does not.","_views":1,"_likes":0,"_nota_sum":0,"_nota_count":0,"_nota_avg":0,"_nota_weight":0,"_i18n_grupo":1982},"macro":[2],"subcategoria":[67],"prompt_tag":[549,1032,414,425],"ferramenta":[13,15,16],"class_list":["post-1523","prompt","type-prompt","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","macro-image","subcategoria-art","prompt_tag-child","prompt_tag-creativity","prompt_tag-drawing","prompt_tag-illustration","ferramenta-chatgpt","ferramenta-gemini","ferramenta-nanobanana"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prompt\/1523","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prompt"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/prompt"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1524"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1523"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"macro","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/macro?post=1523"},{"taxonomy":"subcategoria","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subcategoria?post=1523"},{"taxonomy":"prompt_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/prompt_tag?post=1523"},{"taxonomy":"ferramenta","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/prompteiro.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ferramenta?post=1523"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
