In this mesmerizing image, a blue lion is portrayed with an extraordinary third eye on its forehead, reminiscent of the mystical eyes of Indian gods, imbuing it with an aura of enigmatic wisdom. Its features blend the fantastical elements of various artistic visions, including influences from both Katsuhiro Otomo’s and Hayao Miyazaki’s signature styles, with a nod to traditional Indian art. The lion’s head, detailed with the likeness of an Indian man’s face, features flatly painted, crisply outlined features beneath a flowing mane that doubles as long human-like hair, cascading down to its chest. The background, a deep amalgamation of dark green and indigo, not only complements the blue of the lion but also enhances the character’s majestic presence through cinematic lighting and a hyper-realistic touch in colored pencil drawings. This striking depiction serves as one of the best style reference techniques in MidJourney, utilizing a fantasy art style that captures both the majesty and cultural essence of its subject.
