How to use this prompt
"Cybernetic left arm with exposed chrome joints" separates this from a modern-day samurai cosplay — without it SDXL draws a man in a coat holding a sword. "Holographic blade edge" is the sci-fi upgrade that makes the katana cyberpunk rather than historical. The glowing red circuit patterns on the collar tie the neon palette into the costume. "Combat stance with the katana held low" gives an actionable pose without obscuring torso details. "Mirrorshades pushed up" shows the face while keeping the accessory. "No background scenery" is enforced by the negative prompt because SDXL adds cityscapes by default. The negative prompt also blocks fantasy armour that would push toward a medieval knight.
Variations to try
- Swap the katana for a monofilament whip in the same cyber-samurai stance
- Change the palette to black and ice blue for a cooler netrunner-samurai variant
