An album · GPT Image 2.5 SunburstIron HarvestRead the exact prompt
Create a finished square album cover, in a 1:1 aspect ratio. Produce the front cover artwork itself, without a vinyl sleeve, jewel case, shelf, or room mockup. COVER TEXT Use the following release information exactly as written. The labels before each colon are for you, not for the cover; print only the text after them. Do not invent extra text. Artist: Black Ember Title: Iron Harvest ART DIRECTION Interpret the supplied brief in Vorticism style. Visual vocabulary: diagonal wedge and triangle forms radiating from a centre; compressed overlapping angular planes; harsh black-and-white contrast with minimal colour; machine-like interlocking shapes suggesting force; no organic curves anywhere. Lettering direction: heavy angular block letterforms; bold condensed sans-serif; text treated as a geometric wedge within the composition. Suggested colors: black, white; sharp red or yellow as single accent. Composition: radiating centrifugal composition; energy pushes outward from centre. Atmosphere: aggressive, mechanical, uncompromising, industrial. Keep out of the design: organic curves or naturalistic forms, soft Futurist motion blur, pastel colour, artificial yellowing or ageing. Apply the visual language to the supplied brief; do not invent historical affiliations, endorsements, or extra copy. ILLUSTRATION NOTES Angular blades radiating from a central iron hub, wedges overlapping like a threshing machine. These notes guide the imagery; do not print them as text. Make the artist name and title the strongest text elements and keep all other text minimal and small, as on a real record sleeve. Check spelling and retain the supplied wording. Do not include these instructions, labels, watermarks, or extra slogans in the artwork.
