Three new prompts in bycase · paint-by-numbers, miniature luxury, surreal brand posters
Three prompts shipped to Click Reader's bycase library — printable paint-by-numbers, miniature luxury product shots, and surreal brand-world posters. Sources, what they're for, what to expect.
Three new prompts in bycase · paint-by-numbers, miniature luxury, surreal brand posters
Three prompts just went live in bycase — the prompt library I run as a side project to Click Reader:
- printable-paint-by-numbers — any image → printable paint-by-numbers worksheet
- exquisite-cute-product-photo — one sentence → luxury miniature ad shot of a literary totem
- surreal-brand-world-poster — brand name + portrait → ad poster where the product opens into a miniature world
All three were lifted from two GitHub awesome-lists (awesome-gpt-image-2 and PicoTrex/Awesome-Nano-Banana-images), wrapped into our slot-fillable format, and wired to Gemini 3 Pro Image (Nano Banana Pro).
bycase pattern: pick a template, fill the slot, get the image. No copy-pasting prompts.
1. printable-paint-by-numbers · any image → printable PBN worksheet
case hero · paired source→worksheet image to be added once outputs are generated
Upload anything, get back a numbered-cell worksheet at A4 portrait, 300 DPI, with a 1–14 color legend baked into the bottom strip. Print, paint, done.
What it's for: gift card for a kid, weekend mail-art for a friend, Sunday no-screens session for yourself.
What works:
- Flat illustration, woodblock prints, stained-glass, line art — clean cell boundaries, transforms beautifully
- Photorealistic source images get muddy (too many hues collapsed into 14 colors)
- Fuzzy textures, smoke, depth-of-field bokeh — cell edges don't close
- 3:4 or 1:1 source ratio works best (output is A4 portrait)

2. exquisite-cute-product-photo · one sentence → luxury miniature ad shot
case hero · 4-image literary totem grid to be added
Type the product (one sentence is enough — "Gatsby's green dock light", "Pequod's harpoon from Moby-Dick"), get back a magazine-quality ad shot: thumb-and-finger hold, studio lighting, soft shadow, polished commercial style.
Why I picked this one: classic literature is full of objects that compress an entire novel ("the green light" = the whole American Dream, the harpoon = the whole obsession). Shooting them as miniature luxury products is a visual genre that didn't exist until last year.
What works:
- The more specific the line ("1922 Metropol brandy glass with a room-317 brass key", not "a glass") the more it reads as if it actually belongs to the book
- Real-world brand asks (Nike sneaker, iPhone) don't hit the luxury-aged-craft note the prompt is tuned for
- For chibi / blind-box / toy aesthetics, check the Q-version miniature concept store case in the same library — different prompt, different output

3. surreal-brand-world-poster · brand name + portrait → ad poster where the product opens into a world
case hero · 4-poster fictional brand grid to be added
Type a brand name (your own, a fictional one, a literary world) and upload a portrait. Output: a surreal ad poster — the subject holds the brand's iconic product, and the product expands into a self-contained miniature world.
GATSBY: flapper in beaded gold, holding a green dock light; inside the lamp, West Egg shore at night. ARRAKIS: Fremen with a sand vial; inside the vial, a sandworm rising. MELVILLE 1851: whaling captain with a scrimshaw whale; inside the carving, the Pequod under storm light. PEMBERLEY: Regency gentleman with a painted miniature estate; inside the frame, drawing rooms and a country dance.
What works:
- Fictional brands (PEMBERLEY, ARRAKIS, WONDERLAND, MIDDLE-EARTH) outperform real ones — real logos drag the model toward reality and kill the "expands into a world" payoff
- Year-stamped vintage names (MELVILLE 1851, METROPOL 1922) get the heaviest type treatment
- Portrait reference: half-body, front-facing, natural light, clean background. Tight headshots tend to crowd out the product
