Style Prompt: “An illustration in the style of a vintage fairy-tale woodcut mixed with 1970s underground comix, combining the fine etched detail of William Hogarth and Arthur Rackham with the grotesque humor of Drew Friedman. Figures are drawn with exaggerated, expressive faces, slightly caricatured but grounded in realism. Clothing and architecture are rendered with historical texture: medieval taverns, crooked timber beams, worn stone floors, patched cloaks, lace bodices, and rustic mugs of ale. The linework is dense and cross-hatched, with heavy outlines and sharp shadows. Colors are muted and earthy—sepia, moss green, brick red, smoky gray—with occasional jewel tones (deep sapphire, gold, crimson) used for highlights. The mood is both comic and eerie: a sense of folkloric strangeness, where humor and menace coexist. Every object feels tactile and lived-in—splintered wood, tarnished metal, frayed cloth. Composition should feel like a narrated tavern tale come to life, with clustered figures, background details full of gossiping townsfolk, posted notices, stray dogs, or sparrows on rafters. Overall tone: storybook realism shot through with grotesque whimsy.” See more
