Mortal Kombat NanoBanana Prompt

PROMPT

Ultra-realistic cinematic action portrait inspired by Scorpion from Mortal Kombat,
matching the exact dynamic pose of the main reference image a low,
aggressive forward stance with knees bent,
torso twisted, and one arm pulled back while the other thrusts forward mid-strike. Nighttime setting.
The scene takes place in a dense forest fully engulfed in flames; burning trees,
collapsing branches, and charred trunks surround the character. The forest fire and the weapon fire are the only light sources, with deep darkness beyond the reach of the flames.
The character does NOT wear a hood. His head is uncovered except for the iconic Scorpion-style metal face mask worn firmly over the mouth and jaw, clearly visible and central to the identity. He wears a yellow-and-black ninja
outfit with layered leather-and-metal armor, stitched straps, reinforced bracers,
and battle-worn fabric edges heavily scorched and singed. Muscular arms are exposed, coated in soot, ash, and sweat,
catching sharp firelight reflections, with realistic grime embedded in skin pores and armor seams.
The right arm grips a heavy chain weapon pose. extended outward in motion, exactly like the reference The chain flames must match the
SECOND reference image exactly: molten-orange fire embedded within the chain links, glowing from the inside as if the metal itself is superheated.
Each link radiates intense heat with liquid-fire texture, bright cores, darker crusted edges, and sparks bursting outward.
The fire crawls along the chain continuously, with embers shedding from each link.
At the end of the chain, a dagger-shaped kunai burns with the same molten intensity.
acting as the brightest light source. ONLY the chain and the dagger are on fire in this specific molten style; no
flames originate from the hands, armor, or body. The left arm is pulled back for balance, tension
visible through posture and muscle strain. Environment: a burning forest at night,
with trees ablaze, fire climbing trunks and leaping between branches, embers drifting through thick smoke,
ash raining down. Volumetric smoke and heat haze glow with orange highlights, and while distant trees dissolve into blackness.
Firelight creates extreme chiaroscuro lighting, carving the armor and
anatomy with harsh highlights and crushed shadows. He scene feels physically grounded, like a real
stunt performer captured mid-action during a controlled forest burn. highlights,
Extreme contrast, warm fire deep blacks, shallow depth of field,
ultra-crisp textures on leather grain, metal
scratches, soot, and scorched fabric. Replace the character’s face with the face of the person in the reference image. Use the reference as a strict identity guide and preserve 100% of the visible
features, skin tone, skin texture, and facial hair. Hair: the hair must be exactly the same as in
the reference (same length and hairstyle). Do not invent hair, do not lengthen it,
do not change it,
do not add white hair or spikes. If the reference includes a cap or a hat, keep it. Accessories: preserve exactly any accessory that appears on the head in the reference (glasses, earrings, piercings, caps, hats,
etc.), same size and position. If the reference has NO accessories, do NOT
add any new ones.
