Why This Prompt Works

This scene uses scale play as its hook: a vessel appears inside a familiar cup, which gives ERNIE Image Turbo a clear surreal 3D problem to solve. The cup-rim camera phrase anchors the composition, while the warm kitchen reflections define the light. Glazed porcelain, tea ripples, bubbles, and steam supply material contrasts that help the model separate the miniature submarine from the liquid and table setting.

Recreate It in Private Diffusion

  1. Paste the prompt into Studio and choose ERNIE Image Turbo.
  2. Set Size to XL and Aspect Ratio to Portrait 2:3.
  3. Type 703663345 into Seed. On a Mac, switch off Randomize first.
  4. Switch off Rewrite description (Rewrite Prompt on a Mac) so Studio keeps the prompt word for word.
  5. Switch on Max quality (slower).

Those are the settings that made this picture, and they run on your own Mac with 24 GB or more, with nothing uploaded.
