  1. The layout is spelled out piece by piece: four labelled panels in a 2x2 grid. Keep that structure and change only the content, or the model loses track of the page.
  2. This is a fill-in template: swap the parts in braces, like {hero}, in the boxes above and keep the rest word for word.
  3. The words in quotes, "LANTERN RUNNER", are printed in the picture. Keep them short and change them to your own.

Where this template comes from

Adapted from a prompt by @KimAkiyama81, collected in freestylefly/awesome-gpt-image-2 under MIT. PopNow rewrote it as a fill-in template and made the example above.

Style prompt guide

Style traits to keep

A game concept art sheet titled LANTERN RUNNER lays out four labelled panels on a dark charcoal background: a courier turnaround, gear exploded views, a floating-island city and four facial expressions. GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst makes it work because its clean-text strength keeps the gold labels readable, and its high quality setting holds the small details of each panel. The result reads like a real studio documentation sheet, not a single illustration.

The style rests on a restrained dark palette, a strict grid and a painted world panel, which together make the sheet look like official studio documentation.

Palette
The dark charcoal ground and gold label type give the sheet a muted, premium look. Gold is the only bright colour in the layout, so it draws the eye to each panel name.
Composition
Four labelled panels in a 2x2 grid split the sheet into equal, readable sections. Each panel does one job, so the viewer scans the sheet the way a production team would.
Light
The prompt names two light sources: dusk over the floating city and the glowing lantern backpack. They add mood to the world panel and make the courier's pack stand out in panel 1.
Finish
Clean, professional documentation layout and crisp readable labels ask for tidy, flat presentation rather than a dramatic illustration. The result has clear edges and sharp type that a game team can read at a glance.

What defines this look

  1. Title, palette and gridAn official game concept art sheet titled "LANTERN RUNNER" on a dark charcoal background with gold label type, four labelled panels in a 2x2 grid

    This sets the document type, the title and the dark ground that makes the gold labels stand out. Without the grid wording, the model may paint one large scene instead of four separate panels.

  2. Protagonist turnaround panelPanel 1, PROTAGONIST: a full-body turnaround (front, side, back) of an adult female courier in a weatherproof jacket with a glowing lantern backpack

    This panel names the character and asks for three views, so the courier's outfit can be checked from every side. Removing the turnaround brackets would likely produce a single pose instead of a usable reference.

  3. Gear exploded viewsPanel 2, GEAR: exploded views of the lantern, a grappling hook and a map tablet

    The exploded-view wording tells the model to show parts separated, which suits a design sheet. Changing it to a plain list of items would lose the technical, pulled-apart look that defines the panel.

  4. World key artPanel 3, WORLD: a key-art painting of a misty floating-island city at dusk

    The key-art and painting words set a finished, atmospheric style for the environment, while misty and dusk set the mood. Swapping in photo would turn the panel into a realistic photograph and break the concept art look.

  5. Expressions and layout finishPanel 4, EXPRESSIONS: four head shots. Clean, professional documentation layout, crisp readable labels

    The expression panel gives the character range, and the final phrase asks for tidy, readable presentation across the whole sheet. Dropping the closing phrase often leaves the labels softer and the layout looser.

Model and settings

Keep the 16:9 ratio, since the wide frame suits a 2x2 grid of panels, and keep quality on high so the gold labels stay sharp. The example uses the 1k resolution, which is enough to check the layout; raise it for a final sheet you plan to print or show large. Stay in text-to-image mode because this prompt needs no start frame or input picture. If you want to rework a sketch you already have, switch to an edit with an input picture and keep the same settings.

  • Nano Banana ProPick this when the four-panel grid matters most, because its tagline says it plans the layout first, which suits a 2x2 sheet with many labels.
  • FLUX.2 ProPick this when the gold-on-charcoal colours must match an exact palette, since its tagline offers hex colour control and readable text for the panel names.

When the style drifts

The world panel turns muddy and grey, with the dusk haze blending into the charcoal ground.
Add "crisp colour separation" to the world panel sentence and keep "dark charcoal background" so the haze stays lighter than the ground.
The panel labels come out misspelled or missing, especially PROTAGONIST and EXPRESSIONS.
Add "every label spelled exactly as written" after "crisp readable labels", and shorten any label you find hard to read.
The sheet looks like one illustration and the grid is lost.
Keep "four labelled panels in a 2x2 grid" and add "thin gold divider lines between panels" to the first sentence.
The gear panel becomes cluttered, with too many small parts drawn at once.
Remove "a map tablet" so the sentence reads "exploded views of the lantern and a grappling hook", leaving the panel two clear objects.

Questions about this style prompt

Can I use this prompt to make a character sheet for my own game?

Yes. Replace LANTERN RUNNER and the courier details with your own character, and keep the four-panel wording so GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst still lays out the turnaround, gear, world and expressions in one image. Keep the adult description, since the prompt asks for an adult courier.

Why does the prompt ask for a 2x2 grid instead of one big picture?

A 2x2 grid gives each job its own space, so the turnaround, gear, world and expressions stay separate and easy to compare. GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst can handle that layout in one pass, though very small labels may still need a quick check after generating.

Will the gold text on the sheet be readable?

The prompt asks for gold label type and crisp readable labels, and GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst is built around clean text, so the title and panel names should be legible at the 1k example size. Check the spelling of the title and panel names, because long words are where errors most often appear.
