10 Prompts for Traits That Are Hard to Hit
Sole of Foot
An illustration-style shot seated against a blue sky with the soles turned toward the viewer. Soles are easily hidden by composition, so pair "sole of foot" with a seated pose or low angle for stability.

A shirtless man raising both arms to show the underarms. "underarm hair" only shows if you combine it with a raised-arm pose. This example is male, but it works the same for female subjects.

A purple knit top with both hands placed behind the head. "put hands behind head" easily deforms the arms, so an upper-body-only framing raises the success rate.

Standing and smiling in a black top with a hand on the belly. "pregnant" changes the body silhouette, so specifying form-fitting clothing makes it read clearly.

A face close-up where the lip volume reads clearly. "thick lips" works better in brackets for emphasis, and pairs well with a tight facial framing.
1 woman,(thick lips)On All Fours
A middle-aged man on all fours indoors. "on all fours" assumes a full-body framing; adding floor or carpet details stabilises the posture.

A white-haired bob lying on a bed, shot from directly above. "on the bed" alone leaves the pose vague; adding "lying down" and "from above" produces this framing.

A midriff-baring pose in a maid uniform. "midriff baring" only works when written alongside a clothing term — on its own it can make the outfit disappear entirely.

A black turtleneck with short black hair and an androgynous mood. "boyish" gains direction when paired with a hairstyle term such as "very short hair".

An illustration-style shot with a uniform soaked in outdoor rain. Pairing "wet hair" with "rain" gives it a reason, so the whole texture — not just the hair — stays consistent.

What the examples above share is simple: never leave the trait word standing alone. Building it up in the prompt generator is the fastest way to test.
Underarm hair needs raised arms; soles need a seated pose and a low angle. If the trait is not physically visible, the word alone will not produce it.
Wrapping in brackets — (thick lips), (((wet body))) — increases weight. Too many layers break everything else, so one to three is the practical range.
Wet hair wants "rain"; a bared midriff wants "maid uniform". Adding a reason for the state keeps the whole picture coherent.
Thick lips want a facial close-up; on all fours wants a full body. Matching the framing to the size of the trait cuts failures. More examples are in the image list.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why is my trait word ignored?
Usually it is a framing problem. Soles or underarm hair simply cannot be drawn if the pose hides them, no matter what you write. Decide the pose and camera position first.
Does the wording differ for photoreal vs illustration?
The trait words themselves stay the same. In this article the soles and wet hair are illustration-style while thick lips and pregnant are photoreal, yet all use the same trait words. What changes is the style words.
Do the same prompts work for male subjects?
Yes. In this article the underarm hair and on-all-fours examples are male. Just change the subject to "1 good looking guy" or "1 middle-aged man" — the trait words carry over unchanged.
