Ballpoint pen

Drawn, not painted — tone comes from marks on paper, and most of the frame stays white.

Both sample pets are AI-generated demonstration photographs — not customer pets, and not pictures of real animals. Every styled version is one real generation, not a mock-up, and the model draws it differently every time.

The prompt

This is the whole thing, word for word — the same text we send.

Redraw this pet entirely as a ballpoint pen drawing: dense blue biro hatching built up stroke by stroke, tone made only from overlapping lines with white paper left showing between them, loose scribbled passages at the edges of the drawing, and the slightly uneven ink of a cheap pen. This must read as pen strokes, never as a photograph and never as a smooth gradient. Keep this exact pet completely recognizable: the same pose, the same body proportions, its unique markings expressed as denser and sparser hatching, the same expression. Place the pet on a plain solid white background, the whole pet inside the frame, with a clearly defined silhouette. No text, no watermark, no signature, no border.

Why the highlighted sentence matters

Image models don't return a transparent background — the picture comes back opaque, and the cut line has to be found again afterwards. A busy or bled-out background is a cut line a factory would sew wrong. That one sentence is what keeps the edge findable.

Why it prints well

One honest note

The two pets above are AI-generated demonstration photographs — not customer pets, and not pictures of real animals. Each styled half is one real pass of this prompt, not a best-of, and AI draws it differently every time: yours will come out in this style, and it will not come out identical to these pictures.
