The recipe

Prompt

Use GPT-5.4 Image 2. Vertical full-color manga page, portrait, aspect ratio exactly 2:3 (832×1248). Use the attached reference images: the style reference for the art style, the character sheets for every character's design, and the attached earlier pages for the setting. ART STYLE — "Painterly Noir Pop": mature, artistic, highly original full-color manga in a distinctive graphic-novel look. STYLE DNA (strict, never generic): graphic-novel ink work with dry-brush strokes and bold black spotting; flat hard-edged shadows in a limited palette layered with gouache and oil texture; slightly off-register screen-print color and halftone dots in the shadows; angular, sculptural faces with narrow almond eyes; elongated, elegant proportions. Dark moody base palette with signature-color accents (Wren = teal, Big Lou = mustard yellow). Extremely expressive faces, cinematic lighting, visible canvas texture. AVOID generic anime faces, oversized round eyes, glossy airbrushed shading, pastel webtoon look, 3D-render look. WREN'S FACE RULE: Wren is always drawn breathtakingly beautiful, the most beautiful character in every panel. Render her face with clean, delicate linework and smooth soft shading: luminous almond-shaped gray-teal eyes with long thick lashes, elegant high cheekbones, a small refined nose, soft full rose-tinted lips, flawless porcelain skin, one small beauty mark under one eye exactly as on her character sheet. CHARACTERS (fixed in every panel): Wren — long glossy black hair, long-sleeved black satin dress, charcoal coat draped over her shoulders, teal drop earrings, her father's plain silver ring worn as a pendant on a thin silver chain at her chest, NO rings on her fingers. Big Lou — huge bald man, round sunglasses pushed up on his head, black handlebar mustache, gold front tooth, mustard-yellow Hawaiian shirt with black palm leaves, gold chain. Jay — very thin man, slicked-back black hair, thin goatee, black tracksuit jacket with a white stripe, thin cigarette in the corner of his mouth. Each character appears at most once in a panel. Background gamblers never look like Lou or Jay. HANDS RULE: every visible hand is anatomically correct with exactly five digits (one thumb and four fingers), natural knuckles and proportions; no extra, missing, fused or twisted fingers. Hands holding the envelope or phone use simple poses. SETTING: the smoky back room behind the bowling lanes of Pin Palace Lanes, exactly as in the attached page 3, with a dark metal back door in one wall. Never a bright casino floor, no chandeliers. No readable signs or posters except the small neon "PIN PALACE LANES". TABLE MAP (fixed for the whole scene): one oval green felt poker table. Wren's seat is at the center of the NEAR long side. Big Lou sits at the center of the FAR long side. Jay sits beside Lou on Lou's right-hand side, so in shots from Wren's side Jay is on the LEFT of the frame and Lou to his right. Poker chips are teal and black. CARDS: the hand is over. Wherever the center of the table is visible, the five community cards King of Diamonds, Nine of Diamonds, Four of Clubs, Two of Spades, Five of Clubs still lie face up there, and no other face-up cards. CARD DESIGN (identical on every page, exactly as on the attached page 9): classic white playing cards with rounded corners; the rank and a small suit symbol in the top-left and bottom-right corners; number cards show the correct number of suit pips in the standard layout (count the pips exactly, like the dots on dice: the Two of Spades has 2 spades, one at the top and one at the bottom; the Four of Clubs has 4 clubs, one in each corner of the center area; the Five of Clubs has 5 clubs, one in each corner of the center area plus 1 in the exact center; the Nine of Diamonds has 9 diamonds in two columns of 4 plus 1 in the center; even when a card is small in the frame, its pip count stays correct); the King shows a traditional illustrated court figure; red suits deep red, black suits black;
