Entry in the Same Prompt - Different Models theme on BudgetPixel.
The first pass gave me a naturalistic girl with a normal short neck, head tipped back and gazing up, so I wrote the swan neck and small stylised head straight into the subject line and moved the style toward flat, chalky picture-book shapes. That fixed the neck and overshot everything else: smooth cartoon skin, hard cheek discs, near-black hair, so I named chestnut brown hair, swapped the discs for a soft rosy blush, and traded clean contours for dry-brush drags and broken edges. What came back is closer to my vision, thin paint with the hatching and canvas tooth still showing. Models, in order: 1. seedream-5.0-pro 2. nano-banana-2-lite 3. muse-image-1.0 4. gpt-image-2 5. gpt-image-2.5-flare 6. gpt-image-2.5-sunburst

AI Model: SeeDream 5.0 Pro
Prompt: Hans Hofmann + Beatrice Alemagna + oil on toothy primed canvas, where Hofmann's abutting colour planes create push-pull depth through dry-brush drags and ragged, uneven edges where planes meet, and Alemagna's crayon-like drawing produces scumbled, hatched tonal variation and broken contours via loosely layered chalky strokes, and the thin oil layer infuses translucent streaks that let canvas tooth and underlayers show through. The fusion manifests as a restricted turquoise, cadmium yellow, cadmium red, titanium white palette with warm-shifting hatched modelling, transforming any subject through dragged, broken-edged handling. A young woman with chestnut brown hair in a loose bun with wisps, wide eyes, a small straight nose, a soft rosy blush, a long slender neck and a red top, beside a small delicate grey mouse on a flower of red-pink and orange petals with a dark-cored yellow centre. Close-up at eye level, the woman in profile at left, neck stretched up, eyes glancing sideways, mouth a startled o, the mouse and flower to her right. Scene set in an undefined shallow space with overlapping rectangular panels.
