Game Asset - Character Expression Sheet Generation (Anime Style)

by ひいらぎまるJanuary 12, 2026Source

Description

A highly detailed, structured prompt for Nano Banana Pro designed to generate a 2x3 grid expression sheet (6 panels) of a character from a reference image. It strictly controls layout, aspect ratio, background, and ensures all elements (hair, clothing, lighting) remain identical across panels, changing only the expression.

Prompt

Create an expression variation sheet as a single image based on the character in the attached reference image.

Format:
- 2 rows x 3 columns grid (6 panels of the same size)
- Overall aspect ratio 3:2
- Background is pure white (#FFFFFF)
- Panel borders should be thin and subtle (light gray) is acceptable
- Place small numbers in the top left of each panel: "1. {argument name="expression 1" default="Neutral"}" "2. Happy" "3. Ecstatic" "4. Sad" "5. Angry" "6. Surprised" (Black, easy to read)

Common Conditions (Must be completely identical across all 6 panels):
- Hairstyle, hair color, eye color, face contour, clothing, accessories
- Face direction (front), bust-up angle, head size, position
- Lighting, shadow placement, coloring (anime-style soft shading)

Only the "expression" can be changed. Do not change the pose or angle.

Arrangement (Fixed order: Left -> Right, Upper -> Lower):
1 (Top Left): Neutral expression. Calm, relaxed face. Mouth closed.
2 (Top Center): Happy. Gentle smile. Soft eyes.
3 (Top Right): Ecstatic. Full smile. Mouth open laughing. Strong highlight in the pupils making them shine (excessive effects unnecessary).
4 (Bottom Left): Sad. Eyes well up. Downcast gaze. Corners of the mouth turn down.
5 (Bottom Center): Angry. Frowning eyebrows with wrinkles between them. Teeth clenched (or lips tightly sealed).
6 (Bottom Right): Surprised. Eyes wide open. Eyebrows raised. Mouth open.

Do Not Include:
- Background objects, text (other than numbers 1-6), effect lines, sweat marks, different outfits, different accessories
