How 22 AI image models render: “Stylized semi-realistic digital character painting, expressive animation-inspired facial proportions, large eyes and strong brows, simplified natural anatomy with convincing three-dimensional volume. Painterly shape-based rendering, minimal linework, soft blended facial shading contrasted with broad angular brushstrokes on clothing. Warm luminous skin with peach and terracotta undertones, subtle rosy cheeks and nose, restrained highlights. Hair rendered as flowing sculpted masses with broad highlights and a few fine flyaway strands. Muted charcoal and earthy neutral palette, soft directional studio lighting, carefully rendered eyes and lips, selectively loose edges and unfinished brushwork. A goth woman stands against a gritty wall, one boot sole against the wall, one hand on her thigh, her other hand against the wall. She has long hair mingling black and pink, metal jewelry, many tattoos, black chunky sneakers, black shorts, black crop top, dramatic makeup. Looks at viewer, grins.”
