Writing Rich Background Illustration Prompts with AI Assistive Tools When creating visual novels or way novels, one of the biggest factors that determine the reader's immersion is the background. However, it is not easy to draw the background for every scene or find suitable assets.

Recently, more creators are using AI assistive tools like Stable Diffusion to generate backgrounds with the desired atmosphere. Today, I will share tips on writing prompts to obtain richer and more detailed background illustrations using AI.

1. Basic Structure: From a Broad Framework to Detailed Descriptions It is important for prompts to have structure rather than simply listing words.

- Location: (e.g., classroom, futuristic city, lush forest)

- Time & Weather: (e.g., golden hour, stormy night, sunset)

- Art Style: (e.g., anime style, watercolor, cinematic lighting)

- Details: (e.g., dust motes, overgrown vines, neon signs)

2. The 'Lighting' Keywords that Determine the Atmosphere The essence of the background is completed by lighting.

- Soft lighting: Suitable for warm and peaceful everyday scenes

- Volumetric fog / Tyndall effect: Emphasizes forest or mystical atmospheres

- Cyberpunk neon: Depicts the vibrant night view of a city

- Rim light: Enhances the contours of objects to provide a three-dimensional feel

3. Example Prompts for Way Novels

Classroom Background (Afternoon): `anime style, classroom, desks and chairs, sunlight streaming through windows,

golden hour, dust motes dancing in the air, high quality, detailed background`

Fantasy Forest (Mystical Atmosphere): `fantasy forest, giant ancient trees, glowing mushrooms, blue fireflies, cinematic lighting, ethereal atmosphere, 8k resolution`

4. Points to Note Backgrounds generated by AI may have distortions in composition or detail. Instead of using the generated images as they are, going through the process of correcting colors or retouching necessary elements using Photoshop can greatly enhance the quality of the work.

Since Wei-Novel is centered on the harmony of text and images, please tell a more wonderful story with your own unique backgrounds!
