Base prompt

Ink-wash manga illustration on newsprint gray-white paper. Sumi-black brushwork, wet ink splatters, a little crimson blood-red (#c41e3a) in the corners and on the blade. A beautiful adult woman, pale skin, long wild black hair, hourglass figure, glossy black leather (short top, gloves, thigh boots), holding a katana. Fierce, sexy, high contrast, no full color, no photography, no anime cel shading, no navy, no cream solitude paper. Widescreen 16:9 desktop wallpaper.

Scene (pick one)

• Mid-overhead slash in an empty dojo, coat and hair flying, blade arcing down.
• Horizontal iaido cut in rain, silver streak of the blade, wet street.
• Leap through a bamboo grove, katana thrusting, stalks exploding as ink.
• Spinning slash on a vermilion shrine bridge, crimson-and-black ink vortex around the cut.
• Rising slash on a rooftop under a white ink moon.
• Seated on empty paper with long legs extended, katana across her lap, looking at us.
• Seated in an open shoji window, long legs, ink garden below.
• Walking away down a rain alley, katana on her back.
• From behind under a large torii, shrine in the mist.
• Close portrait, katana over one shoulder, splatters on the paper around her.

Hard rules

• Paper: #e1ddda / gray-white
• Ink: #201e20
• Crimson only as splatter and blade accent, not a full red scene
• Same woman every time: adult, long black hair, pale skin, black leather, katana
• New place each image — don’t reuse the same temple stairs
• 16:9, ideally 1792×1008 or larger
