The recipe

Prompt

[Model] GPT-5.4 Image [Size] 1024x1536 (portrait 2:3) [Purpose] Page 3 of the full-color comic "Spin Cycle Spirits", Episode 1 (the big spectacle page) [Reference images] Attached: the Boo-Bert sheet, the Granny Pearl & Lint sheet, and the series key visual. Match the character designs, the laundromat interior, and the art style exactly. Use the "in the wash" (almost invisible) state from the Boo-Bert sheet. [Art style] Original "yuru-kawa" healing comedy style, matching the attached images: soft, huggable plush-toy characters with a subtle felt texture, light pastel coloring, gentle soft outlines with tiny stitch accents. Full color. This page has dramatic, spooky lighting, but it stays cute, never horror. [Page layout] One vertical comic page, Western reading order. Exactly 3 panels with clean white gutters and soft brown panel borders. - Panel 1: full width, about 20% of the page height. - Panel 2: full width, about 58% of the page height, the big spectacle panel. Its top and bottom borders are slanted for energy, and the tornado breaks slightly out of the panel border. - Panel 3: full width, about 22% of the page height. [Panel 1] Boo-Bert's sheet spins inside washing machine number 4, visible through the round glass door. Next to it, Boo-Bert is now almost completely invisible: only a faint dashed outline, his glowing honey-yellow buttonhole eyes and his small "30°" care label are visible. He tries to cover himself with his barely visible stubby hands, panicking, with pink heart-shaped steam puffs of embarrassment. Speech bubble (spiky shout bubble): "WAIT. I'm NAKED!!" [Panel 2] Dramatic low-angle shot of the whole laundromat. Boo-Bert's panic causes a huge poltergeist outburst: the ceiling lights flicker, every washing machine door bangs open, and towels, socks and shirts fly up into a giant swirling tornado of glowing pale blue-green ghost light that reaches the ceiling. In the eye of the tornado float Boo-Bert's two glowing eyes, wide with panic, and his tiny care label. Lint is puffed up with fur standing on end, clinging to the top of a dryer. At the lower right, Granny Pearl sits calmly in a small armchair, eyes closed, sipping tea from a teacup, completely unbothered, her bun and cardigan gently blown by the wind. Big hand-lettered sound effects: "WOOOOOO" curving along the tornado, "BANG! BANG!" near the washer doors. [Panel 3] Calm again. Granny sets her teacup down on its saucer and speaks gently. Speech bubble from Granny: "Dear. Deep breath." The tornado has stopped; towels drift down slowly like snow, and one small towel lands on top of invisible Boo-Bert, showing his little shape. His glowing eyes look down, embarrassed. Small speech bubble from Boo-Bert: "...sorry." [Character details] - Boo-Bert (in the wash): almost invisible, faint dashed outline, glowing honey-yellow buttonhole eyes, small "30°" care label. - Granny Pearl: small, round, sweet elderly woman with warm brown skin, tall fluffy silver bun with wooden clothespins, cat-eye glasses on a pearl chain, mustard knitted cardigan with pockets, cream dress, striped socks, wooden clogs. - Lint: round lavender-gray felt cat, one folded ear, mismatched amber and mint eyes. [Text rules] All text in English, spelled exactly as written above. Speech bubbles are soft white rounded ovals (the shout bubble is spiky) with clean, bold, rounded comic lettering that is easy to read on a phone. Bubble tails point to the speaker. No other text. [Avoid] More or fewer than 3 panels, a visible full ghost body for Boo-Bert in panels 1-3, dot eyes, slit eyes, pink oval blush, extra characters, extra limbs, horror, gore, dark scary faces, realistic photo textures, misspelled text, Japanese text.
