Basic Prompt Structure

Prompts are what makes your generations work. The prompt may look like this:

An oil painting | of a Dwarf warrior, | with (red) hair, holding a sword, | Surrealism, | dark, moddy, | by Rembrant

A red haired short woman holding a sword.

Lets break this down.

"An oil painting" is the Art Medium you want.

"of a Dwarf Warrior" this is subject of your prompt.

"with (red) hair, holding a sword" are features of your subject. The () increases the weight of red in your prompt.

"surrealism" is the art style.

"dark, moody" are the attributes describing the Art. This can also be stuff like god rays and volumetric lighting.

"by rembrant" is an artist, which style we are trying to copy.

All of these will be explained in the following chapters.
