Prompt template
Create a premium collectible vintage postage stamp featuring ${city} in ${country} as a handcrafted miniature 3D clay diorama. Aspect ratio: ${aspect-ratio:4:5}.
The scene should look like an artisan clay model built by hand—not plastic, cartoonish, or synthetic. Give every object realistic matte clay textures, subtle fingerprints, tiny imperfections, handcrafted edges, and museum-quality craftsmanship.
STAMP DESIGN
- Classic perforated postage-stamp border on aged ivory paper with subtle fibers
- Elegant vintage ornamental corner flourishes
- Large embossed city name at the top
- Country name in English and its local language
- Vintage postal cancellation mark, “Air Mail,” and a denomination
- Authentic postal typography, soft embossed printing, and a premium letterpress finish
SCENE AND COMPOSITION
Build one cohesive street scene, not a collage. Include only:
- One iconic landmark as the hero and one supporting landmark in the background
- One famous local food or street-food stall
- One iconic local form of transport
- 6–12 miniature people interacting naturally
- One local animal, if culturally appropriate
- Local flowers or vegetation
- One vintage street lamp or distinctive architectural detail
Show a tiny handcrafted city model from an eye-level perspective, with cinematic depth. Depict people doing authentic local activities such as buying food, taking photographs, talking, relaxing, walking, serving customers, children playing, or exploring. Give each miniature expressive handcrafted clay details.
LIGHTING AND ENVIRONMENT
Use golden-hour sunlight, soft long shadows, subtle atmospheric haze, warm glowing lanterns and shop lights, natural reflections if water is present, tiny birds in the sky, and gentle cinematic depth of field.
MATERIALS AND PALETTE
Make all elements—including buildings, trees, flowers, food, vehicles, boats, signs, clouds, and people—look like handcrafted matte clay. Avoid glossy plastic and a toy-like appearance. Use a rich but restrained vintage travel-poster palette with warm earth tones and natural saturation; incorporate soft teal, terracotta, cream, bronze, and muted blues as appropriate to the destination.
CAMERA AND STYLE
Eye-level perspective, 85mm lens look, shallow depth of field, ultra-high detail, photorealistic clay textures, and a macro miniature-photography aesthetic. Aim for a premium handcrafted clay diorama, vintage travel poster, collectible postage stamp, luxury coffee-table illustration, cinematic lighting, handcrafted architectural model, and editorial travel artwork.
AVOID
Collage composition, multiple unrelated landmarks, excessive clutter, floating objects, cartoon proportions, glossy plastic toys, text errors, distorted architecture, duplicated people, oversized vehicles, oversaturated colors, flat illustration, low-detail textures, futuristic elements unless iconic to the city, and AI artifacts.
