Prompt
A wire-sculpture style line drawing of a galloping horse on plain white paper, the entire figure rendered as continuous looping black wire lines suggesting a three-dimensional armature, the legs extended in mid-stride, the mane flowing back, the body built from curved wire contours that imply volume without surface, thin even line weight, the wire lines crossing at structural points to suggest depth, no shading, no color fill, no gradients, generous white margin, no text, no letters

How to use this prompt
"Wire-sculpture style" is the anchor that produces the armature look rather than a flat drawing; "continuous looping black wire lines suggesting a three-dimensional armature" is the phrase that teaches DALL-E the depth convention, which is the whole point of the style. "The wire lines crossing at structural points to suggest depth" is permitted crossing — unlike single-line art, wire sculpture crosses to build volume, and naming that explicitly stops DALL-E from flattening the figure. "Suggesting volume without surface" is the phrase that prevents DALL-E from filling the body with shading. "Extended in mid-stride" gives a specific galloping pose. The 3:2 landscape suits the horizontal stride. Keep the white margin for the gallery-print feel.
Variations to try
- Redraw as a wire-sculpture eagle mid-dive with wings tucked
- Recolour the wire to oxidised copper-green on warm off-white for a sculpture study
