Detailed description of the font: style (modern / retro / cyber / handwritten), weight, serif / sans-serif, bevel, 3D effects, gloss, and metallic / frosted / glass texture. Analyze the logo's color scheme, composition proportions, lighting, material, and effects (outline, glow, gradient, emboss), and output a copyable prompt. 3. Landscape (Natural Landscape, Cityscape, Scene) Reverse engineer this landscape image's environment, weather, time, lighting, color tone, atmosphere, composition, and depth of field to generate landscape prompts. Detailed description: scene subject, season, time of day (early morning / dusk / night), sky, clouds, vegetation, water, color tone, atmosphere, and lens feel. Extract keywords: style, color, lighting, image quality, resolution, atmosphere, perspective, and detail texture. 4. Photography (Real Person / Portrait / Product / Documentary) Reverse engineer this photograph's camera parameters, lens, lighting, color tone, image quality, composition, and atmosphere to generate photography-style prompts. Detailed description: lighting (natural light / hard light / soft light / backlight), depth of field, focal length, image quality (8K / high definition / film), color tone (cool / warm / retro / film feel), and composition. Extract: photographer style, lighting, texture, resolution, focus, noise, sharpness, and emotional atmosphere. 5. Illustration (Flat / Anime / Healing / Hand-drawn) Reverse engineer this illustration's painting style, brush strokes, texture, color, lines, composition, atmosphere, and artist style.

Detailed description: 3D cartoon / realistic / clay / frosted / metallic / glass / acrylic, lighting (three-point lighting), reflection, roughness, Octane rendering, soft edges, and volume light. Extract keywords: 3D render, C4D, Blender, Octane, PBR material, soft light, high detail, 8K, cartoon texture, minimalist. 7. IP Character (Designer Toys / Q-version / Blind Box) Reverse engineer this IP character's design, style type, facial features, body proportions, clothing, color scheme, material, lighting, and detail features to generate the same IP character prompts. Detailed description: style (Q-version / designer toys / healing / Chinese style / clay / cartoon), head-to-body ratio, hairstyle, clothing accessories, expression, action pose, and material (matte / resin / PVC / ceramic) and texture. Extract keywords: IP character, blind box style, designer toys, C4D, 3D rendering, soft light, solid color background, delicate texture, high detail, cute, healing, minimalist, full-body pose.
