Copy-ready prompt
Objective: Create a dramatic, vertical cover illustration for a Japanese light novel/manga series, featuring glamorous ice and snow magic, a gothic academy atmosphere, and striking Japanese cover typography. Canvas: 3:4 vertical cover, compact and full-page composition, high-detail anime rendering, color palette of cool blue, purple, silver, and white, accented with bright pink lighting effects. Layout: The two main characters occupy the foreground. The character on the left is a silver-haired noblewoman, half-length, leaning slightly to the right, with extremely long, flowing silver-white hair adorned with jeweled floral hair accessories, and wearing a black gothic lace dress with waist details, ribbons, gemstones, and snowflake patterns. Her right hand extends towards the viewer, casting bright, crystalline ice and snow magic. The character on the right is a black-haired young noblewoman, slightly taller behind her, leaning slightly to the left, wearing a dark, ornate military academy uniform jacket with silver embroidery, over which a formal dress shirt is unbuttoned. Both main characters' faces are deliberately covered by flat, semi-transparent gray square blocks: two face-covering blocks in total, one for each foreground character's face. Background: A Gothic ice palace or academy castle under moonlight, with light shining through the windows, filling the upper center of the image, surrounded by snowflakes, stars, and frost-covered trees, with a wrought iron gate on the left. Add a silhouette of a girl in the distance near the gate, backlit and mysterious. The environment should create the atmosphere of a frozen magical world at night. Magic and Objects: Surround the characters with numerous sharp, semi-transparent ice crystal fragments, snowflakes, shimmering frost particles, and blue-white crystal refraction light. A large glowing snowflake magic circle is contained in the center of the heroine's outstretched palm. The ice crystal fragments should be dynamic, radiating diagonally across the cover. Text Content: Add 5 main sets of visible text. 1) A glowing pink and white question title in the upper left corner:{argument name="top question text" default="Is my sister acting differently than usual?"} 2) A black, ornate nameplate with a white border in the upper right corner displays the Japanese drama series tag:{argument name="episode label" default="Episode 1"} 3) The large main title at the bottom center uses a combination of blue, white, black, and bright pink light effects.{argument name="main title text" default="When I Reincarnated, My Ice-Cold Stepsister Was the Only One in Romance Mode Who Became the Strongest"} 4) Author/Original Work Statement in bold white vertical text at the bottom left corner:{argument name="author text" default="The original story begins to collapse."} 5) A small, decorative subtitle bar at the very bottom:{argument name="bottom tagline" default="~My incredibly beautiful stepsister's doting affection will destroy the world!?~"} Visual Style: High-end Japanese fantasy manga cover, highly detailed digital painting, intricate lines, glowing effects, dramatic rim lighting, snow particle effects, gorgeous typography seamlessly integrated with the artwork, high contrast, and a romantic yet suspenseful atmosphere. Constraints: Maintain the vertical cover's texture, strictly retain 2 foreground characters, 1 background silhouette, 2 gray occlusion squares covering the foreground faces, and 5 sets of main text. Do not add logos, watermarks, speech bubbles, panel borders, or additional characters.
