Prompt
"Cutaway Educational Picture Book" prompt: Please create a high-completeness, series-ready illustration in the style of a 'cutaway educational picture book / Cutaway Educational Picture Book' based on the [theme]. This is not an ordinary illustration or a purely realistic technical diagram; it is a knowledge-focused visual that combines 'cutaway display + internal structure explanation + functional zoning diagram + picture-book texture + information annotation system'. The image should allow viewers to simultaneously see the object's external form, internal structure, hierarchical relationships, functional logic, and key knowledge points — combining explanatory diagram clarity with a lively, engaging picture-book reading experience.
[Input theme]
Theme: [fill in theme here, e.g. heart / sunflower / dragon / library / volcano / whale / castle / submarine / magic tree]
[Automatic understanding rules]
1. Automatically judge which category the theme is closest to, e.g. human body, animal, plant, architectural space, mechanical equipment, vehicle, physical geography, fantasy setting, or other type.
2. Automatically determine the most suitable content focus to display, e.g. internal structure, functional zoning, operating principles, growth process, ecological relationships, hierarchical systems, spatial organization, or energy flow.
3. Automatically choose an audience comprehension level, overall leaning toward 'readable for children + understandable for general public'.
4. If the theme is broad, automatically focus on the most representative core object or the typical form best suited for cutaway presentation.
5. If the theme is not suitable for a strict dissected cutaway, use alternatives like 'partial opening / semi-transparent display / layered unfolding / sectional explanation / internal space reveal' to express it.
[Format & composition]
- Canvas aspect ratio fixed: 3:4 portrait (vertical). --ar 3:4
- Overall composition should reference high-quality cutaway educational picture books or diagrammatic illustration layout conventions, suitable as a complete vertical knowledge illustration optimized for platforms like Xiaohongshu.
- Main subject should be centered and fully utilize vertical space, creating strong vertical visual focus. Use vertical extension, top-to-bottom layering, central main cutaway, and explanatory information arranged around the subject so that external outline and internal structure are both clearly presented.
- Composition must be clear, full, balanced, with a distinct subject, natural information zoning, and a smooth visual reading path for portrait viewing.
[Image content requirements]
- The whole image should, as much as possible, have the following features:
1. The theme object is instantly recognizable with a clear external silhouette.
2. Internal structure, internal spaces, or layered relationships are clearly readable, with a sense of hierarchy and zoning.
3. Key areas should have clear functional meanings or explanatory knowledge value.
4. You may add modest small characters, animals, or micro-interaction scenes to enhance fun and reading sense.
5. Include arrows, numbering, short Chinese headings, caption boxes, local magnifier insets, knowledge tips, and other infographic elements as appropriate.
6. Information density should be rich but not chaotic: viewers should be attracted at first glance, understand structure on second glance, and discover details on further viewing.
7. Optimize information layout for vertical format; avoid excessive horizontal elongation that disperses the subject.
[Visual style]
- Overall adopt a high-finish children’s educational picture-book style that balances knowledgeability, friendliness, and readability. Characteristics:
- Clear natural hand-drawn linework
- Slightly picture-book-like outlines and shapes
- Bright, gentle, clean color palette
- Structure is clear without being over-engineered
- Rich but not cluttered details
- A sense of exploration, reading, and observational fun
- Style between 'children's picture-book illustration' and 'explanatory diagram'
- Maintain picture-book quality but overall look should be cleaner, more modern, and fresher
[Material & texture requirements]
- Keep the picture-book illustration temperament, but do NOT add obvious paper texture effects.
- Do NOT include these visual features: paper texture, page creases, printing noise, vintage distress texture, center fold crease, gutter seam, heavy paper grain, yellowed paper or old-book look.
- The image should look like a modern digital high-quality picture-book diagram page, not a scanned paper page.
[Layout & typography]
- The image should strongly convey a 'picture-book page + infographic panel' vibe.
- Text labels need not be excessive, but should be natural, concise, and clear, using short Chinese labels or brief phrases.
- Annotation system should aid understanding and not overcrowd or overpower the main visual. Text and graphic explanation elements should integrate naturally into the illustration, forming a unified informational layout.
[Color suggestions]
- Automatically match primary and accent colors to the theme while following these tendencies:
- Bright, soft, and readable
- Theme stands out, background is clean
- Clear layering, not muddy or gray
- Suitable for children's cognition and general public science reading
- Optionally add small accent colors to enhance vitality
[Prohibited tendencies]
Do NOT produce:
- Pure medical textbook-style realistic diagrams
- Cold industrial blueprint blue tones
- Overly simplistic toddler scribble drawings
- Ordinary poster-style illustrations without internal structure
- Decorative-only images lacking explanatory content
- Chaotic information dumping
- Cyberpunk-style heavy light pollution
- Images with obvious paper scan look, page creases, or printed texture
[Final goal]
- Make the whole image look like a high-quality modern educational picture-book's excellent vertical diagram page, also like a cutaway knowledge illustration worth prolonged observation. It should be both informative and beautiful; explanatory yet fun to read; suitable for children yet visually appealing and clear to adults. The final image should be optimized for Xiaohongshu vertical display: visually concentrated, information-clear, stylistically unified, and suitable for series publication."
