nano-banana-2 Portrait Dual-Style Demo: Realistic and Artistic

Using the same portrait subject, this piece contrasts two prompt approaches for nano-banana-2: one takes a realistic route, emphasizing skin texture, natural light, and shallow depth of field; the other takes an artistic route, emphasizing flat color blocks, visible brushstrokes, and decorative composition. Both prompts describe only the image and lighting, relying on no undocumented model parameters, so developers can directly adapt them into templates for batch asset production. The author's pipeline supports text-to-image and image-to-image input with up to 14 reference images, and also offers 1K/2K/4K resolutions and multiple aspect ratio options. This piece uses a 4:5 vertical format at 2K resolution, intended for social and editorial portrait assets; if print or large-format display is needed, the resolution can be raised to 4K. Both prompts share the same 4:5 aspect ratio, making it easy to compare the realistic and artistic approaches side by side in terms of composition density, lighting treatment, and material rendering. It serves well as a starting point for prompt reference, style comparison experiments, and early concept exploration in design.

A pair of portrait studies serving as prompt references for portrait generation: one is a realistic studio portrait lit by soft north-facing window light, with visible skin texture and fine hair strands, shallow depth of field and a neutral background, shot with an 85mm lens; the other is a stylized painterly portrait built from flat color blocks and visible brushstrokes, with a decorative geometric border and highly saturated warm tones. Vertical 4:5 composition, centered subject, head-and-shoulders framing, clean negative space, no text or watermark.
