• Used settings:

  • Prompt: A stunning 2D illustration. Textured, acid-free paper with a grainy, rough texture in a dirty white colour, featuring fine scratches and brushstrokes. At the bottom of the canvas is a cobbled road leading upwards, glistening after the rain, along which an old red Volkswagen Beetle is driving. On the pavement stand two figures in black and red coats, sheltering under red and black umbrellas. Lining the road on both sides are colourful, whimsical, crooked houses in muted shades of red, white and black, with coloured stained-glass windows, pots of red geraniums on the windowsills, balconies entwined with autumn ivy the colour of dark cherry tomatoes, and stained-glass doors. A colourful, fabulously beautiful illustration of an urban landscape in a whimsical art style, created using charcoal sticks, pastel pencils and oil paints. Stunning, radiant, soft light; gentle contrasting transitions; and the glazing technique. A magical, toy-town-style, exquisite two-dimensional illustration; masterfully executed, with the deep colours of a masterpiece – a unique painting. In a style reminiscent of Inge Shuster, Gabriel Pacheco, Xul Solar, Wlad Safronow, Francisco Fonseca, Valerie Hegarty, Per Nylén, Beth Conklin and Andrea Vandoni.

Misty Cobblestone Street at Dusk

• Model: DaVinci2

• Size: 1920 X 1080 (2.07 MP)

• Used settings:

  • Prompt: Dark gothic fantasy street scene in an ancient old town, hyper-detailed and cinematic. A weathered two-story stone house with worn teal doors and cracked windows stands among twisted, leafless trees. Black iron lanterns cast dim golden light, flickering across rain-slick cobblestones that reflect like pools of liquid shadow. Heavy mist rolls through the alley, swallowing distant figures into mystery. The sky burns with dramatic chiaroscuro — storm-tossed clouds in crimson, deep indigo, and smoldering ember tones — swirling like a painted baroque ceiling. Climbing vines twist like black veins against the stone walls, while wilted flowers spill from broken pots. The entire atmosphere is moody, gothic, and theatrical, layered with texture, fog, and volumetric light beams cutting through shadow. Painterly yet ultra-realistic, inspired by Caravaggio’s light and shadow, with hints of Brian Froud’s eerie fantasy and Ghibli’s depth, but in a darker, baroque palette. HDR intensity, strong contrasts, gothic ambience, perfect for DaVinci2.

The scene features charming, old-world stone buildings with steep, tiled roofs, some draped in creeping vines.

In this serene environment, several figures are leisurely walking along the path, some stopping to chat at café tables set outside, while others stroll deeper into the fog. Their silhouettes are partially obscured by the mist, adding to the enchanting atmosphere. Overhead, a few bare branches twist against the evening sky, enhancing the scene's atmospheric depth. The lighting from the streetlamps casts a gentle glow on the ground, reflecting off the cobblestone in a way that enhances the overall mood of nostalgia and warmth in this serene, vintage setting.
