Neo-Modernist Geometric Character Illustration

Simplify an existing character into a character built from soft geometric forms and gradient color planes, presented in a restrained asymmetrical layout.

Prompt

【Character】, neo-naïve character design × Japanese modernist graphic design × soft geometry × gradient mesh.

Preserve the character's most core identifying features:
silhouette of the hairstyle,
hair color,
main eye color,
main character color,
headwear,
emblem,
ears,
horns,
tail,
weapon or other most recognizable signature accessories.

Re-compress the character into clumsy, irregular, designed geometric forms.

Character proportions:
oversized head × compact torso × simplified limbs × unbalanced silhouette.

The head uses circles, ellipses, trapezoids, squares, or irregular soft geometric shapes;
the torso is short and compact;
the arms and legs are simplified into narrow strips, wedges, cylinders, or soft blocks;
complex clothing, armor, accessories, and weapons are reduced to a few clear color blocks.

Facial features are highly simplified:
large, simple eyes,
a few nose and mouth lines,
clear eyebrow shapes,
expression automatically matched to the character's personality.

Body posture allows slight tilting, imbalance, turning inward, leaning forward, leaning back, or asymmetrical stance, creating a neo-naïve sense of awkwardness.

The figure is shaped with a small amount of soft geometry and gradient mesh.
Each body part is composed of 2–4 soft gradient color blocks, with edges carrying slight hand-drawn wobble and irregularity.

The background uses a single solid color field.
Colors are automatically extracted from the character's main colors and then desaturated or brightened to form a unified color range.

The composition follows Japanese modernist graphic design logic:
large areas of negative space,
asymmetrical arrangement,
character placed off-center,
clear visual focus,
a few small geometric auxiliary shapes,
a quiet, restrained layout.

The overall palette is limited to 3–5 main colors.
Prioritize the character's main color, one secondary color, one light color, one dark color, and one accent color.

Overall effect:
primitive cuteness,
calm modernist order,
soft geometric character design,
clean flat composition,
minimal editorial illustration.

Vertical format.

How to use

Usage tips: Replace 【Character】 with a specific character or upload a reference image. Make sure the character's core identifying features, main colors, and signature accessories are clear, so that a stable vertical character illustration can be generated.
