Avoiding generic results


If you ask AI to make an image of a pretty , busty woman this will be the sort of result you will get.

Now that is all well and good if you are looking for your typical supermodel, but what if we tried being a bit more refined? There are various classifications for women's body types, such as Hourglass, Pear-shaped, etc., but sometimes models will struggle with interpreting them correctly.

I find it much easier to use the following somatypes. (Ooh, look at me with the big words..). Using specific descriptors generally produces more consistent results than using the name of the somatype alone, since many image models respond better to explicit physical characteristics.

Ectomorph

Naturally slim, narrow shoulders and hips, smaller joints, long limbs, finds it difficult to gain weight or muscle.

Illustration: Ectomorph
a 25 year old blonde, naturally slender and elegant physique, long lean limbs, narrow shoulders, narrow hips, small joints, delicate wrists and ankles, slim waist, subtle natural muscle definition, graceful posture, elongated neck, refined proportions, healthy athletic appearance, realistic anatomy, balanced proportions, soft natural skin texture, photorealistic, high detail, flattering natural pose, confident expression, cinematic lighting, wearing a flattering bikini, by the pool, natural sunlight
Useful physique modifiers

You can mix these into your prompts:

naturally slim
long lean limbs
delicate bone structure
narrow shoulders
narrow hips
slender waist
small hands and feet
graceful posture
elegant proportions
subtle muscle definition
healthy, toned appearance
photorealistic anatomy
realistic proportions

Mesomorph

Naturally athletic, medium frame, broader shoulders, gains muscle relatively easily, responds well to exercise

Illustration: Mesomorph
A striking athletic redhead with a mesomorph physique standing on a pristine white-sand beach at golden hour, naturally muscular yet feminine build, broad shoulders tapering to a defined waist, toned arms, sculpted legs, strong core, healthy athletic curves, fair skin with a light dusting of freckles, vibrant copper-red hair flowing in the ocean breeze, bright green eyes, relaxed confident smile. Wearing a stylish teal bikini with subtle metallic accents and a lightweight sheer beach wrap draped loosely around her hips. Gentle waves lapping at the shoreline, crystal-clear turquoise water, swaying palm trees, dramatic clouds catching the warm sunset light, footprints in the wet sand. Captured in a natural contrapposto pose, one hand brushing hair back, looking toward the horizon. Cinematic composition, magazine-quality beach fashion editorial, photorealistic, ultra-detailed skin texture, realistic anatomy, soft golden rim lighting, Kodak Portra 400 color palette, 85mm lens, shallow depth of field, HDR, 8K resolution

Softer, rounder build, wider hips, tends to store fat more easily, often gains both muscle and fat readily.

Long dark brunette hair flowing over her shoulders, warm expressive eyes, sun-kissed skin, wearing an elegant bikini with a flowing lightweight sarong wrapped around her hips. Standing near the shoreline with calm ocean waves behind her, tropical palms silhouetted against a purple and orange sunset sky, warm evening glow reflecting on the water. Relaxed confident pose, natural smile, sophisticated mature beauty, realistic proportions, photorealistic fashion photography, cinematic dusk lighting, soft shadows, 85mm lens, shallow depth of field, Kodak Portra 400 colour palette, ultra-detailed skin texture, realistic anatomy.

I'm a Barbie Girl

As I touched upon way, wayyyy back at the intro, AI tends to idealise images of women. Given that a lot of training Data is looking at social media feeds, advertising campaigns, stock photography, and retouched images with excessive beauty filters (I use that term very roughly..), you are more likely to get a perfect, plastic-looking woman if you are not specific enough in your prompt.

Because AI cannot understand the human ideals of beauty, it tends to default to the easy, idealised stereotype.

A useful trick is to describe the person first, the attractiveness second:

Instead of:

"a gorgeous woman"

try:

"a confident woman with a warm personality, distinctive features, natural skin texture, and realistic proportions."

Here is a nice compact modifier to add to your creations that I thoughtfully prepared for you earlier. No sticky back plastic needed,

realistic human beauty, authentic features, natural skin texture, believable anatomy, subtle imperfections, expressive face, unretouched editorial photography, natural lighting, lifelike proportions, genuine personality, cinematic realism

If you happen to be stuck back in the dark ages and use a Model that utilises Negative prompts (eck, uck, why?)

Useful negative prompt terms

avoid plastic skin
avoid airbrushed appearance
avoid doll-like features
avoid unrealistic symmetry
avoid exaggerated proportions
avoid over-smoothing
avoid CGI look
avoid beauty filter effect
avoid artificial perfection

As always, I hope you find this useful.

Take Care All :)
